His most substantive comment on Trump’s myriad legal issues was a sarcastic remark about his mugshot in the Fulton County, Georgia, case. Defending democracy is an issue Biden allies believe remains deeply resonant with voters, almost three years after the 2020 contest. A White House official noted Arizona was a state that has toggled between Democratic and Republican leadership. “President Biden will talk about his conviction that we must not walk away from the sacrifices generations of Americans have made to defend our democracy,” the official said. “It’s well past time for President Biden to see the border crisis first hand and for the administration to do its job, secure the border, and keep Arizona safe.

The Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America doesn’t support same-sex marriage. It demonstrates that the American model of representative democracy — though riddled with divisions — can still address complex contemporary issues. This victory was achieved because the Respect for Marriage Act also includes important principles of religious freedom for those who don’t endorse same-sex marriage itself. On the right, criticism has largely centered on calling for even stronger religious freedom amendments or strenuously objecting to the inclusion of same-sex marriage in any federally codified definition of marriage. But over time, the model of political pluralism embodied in the Respect for Marriage Act can help renew national trust.
Historian Jon Meacham said the US may soon experience a period of civil chaos. While he doesn't believe there will be armies, he does think "we are going to see it with violence." The Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer, who has an upcoming book about Abraham Lincoln, spoke about how Lincoln set an example by putting democracy ahead of politics. "I do not believe we're going to see the massing of great armies in the way we did in the 19th century. "The work we are about is more important than the will and the whim of a single man, or a single party or a single interest.'"
Heather Havrilesky“I’m almost opposed to diplomacy in interpersonal relationships, at least in intimate relationships, because when people handle each other the way that countries handle each other, it feels transactional. It doesn’t feel like just showing up and showing yourself. Everything in my life that’s good has come from being extremely honest and direct. You say things that sometimes upset or scare people, and you hear things that maybe make you question yourself and force you to grow. A lot of people who don’t want honesty are more rigid, less direct, more fearful of deep connections.
