I took the leap w/

Gary Locke has been a trailblazer for AAPIs in public service. This is repulsive and needs to be taken down immediately. The Trump campaign owes Amb. Locke an apology.
Latest Trump ad features a montage of Biden meeting with Chinese officials. Amid that montage at the :39 mark: a clip of him with Gary Locke, the former governor of Washington/Commerce secretary/ambassador to China, who is Asian-American, but... American
The connection voters feel to
@JoeBiden
is one of the many reasons he's the only candidate able to build the broad and diverse coalition necessary to not just become our Democratic nominee but also beat Donald Trump in November.
This closing statement is why people are drawn to

@JoeBiden
on Trump in AZ: “This visit is a distraction. It’s a distraction from Trump’s failed response to combat the spread of COVID-19. It’s a distraction from his failure to get Americans — including many in Arizona — the testing we need”
This is simply not true. Since April
@JoeBiden
has been in NV frequently & our campaign has been aggressive about engaging with the diverse communities here and investing in them too! No one should be the Democratic nominee with out building a broad and diverse coalition. (1/2)
"My point in getting on board with

is that he's proven — he's been there. I've known him for 40 years. I know his character and his leadership and his honor and his integrity and those things are very important to me," says

on the testing failures in Arizona: "The crisis in Arizona is the direct result of
