As Mary wrote earlier today, Joe Biden officially launched his 2020 presidential campaign with a video and tweet evoking the August 2017 Charlottesville riots. On Trump's remarks in the aftermath of Charlottesville, Biden said:

During his campaign, Moulton said he plans to "talk about patriotism, about security, about service. These are issues Democrats for too long have ceded to Republicans."

2020 presidential contender Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) released 10 years of his tax returns right before he participated in a town hall with Fox News.
