AOC: I heard that someone was flying a plane with a banner that said this is Trump country… It sure don’t look like it today. I don’t think this is Trump country. This is our country.

The Trump Admin wants to eliminate the office that's enabling U.S. manufacturers of steel, cement, & aluminum to cut costs & pollution, boosting industrial competitiveness. Helluva manufacturing agenda you've got there.

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

Thank YOU for coming out! This is exactly why we do this. One objective of these rallies has been for people in red and swing areas to start seeing and finding one another. There is power in numbers. We also bring local organizers onstage to speak and highlight local issues. It’s been great 💜

There's a world where Dems won the House 218-217 in November and Rs now have a working majority bc Grijalva and Turner died. Sorry to be unsentimental but I just don't respect people who run for office in their 70s after cancer diagnoses. Move on. Spend time with your family.

Cohen: Take MeidasTouch Network. They’re beating Joe Rogan, they’re beating Fox, they’re beating the lame stream news. So when there’s a march, all you have to do is contact the Meiselas brothers — next thing you know, you’ve got ten million people showing up. That’s an army.

Every tyrant in history has sought to stifle criticism of himself and his regime. But America was founded on criticism. American democracy was built on dissent. Every institution, group, firm, or individual that surrenders to Trump’s wanton tyranny invites more of it.

The broligarchs have executed a hostile takeover of the US, just like an invading colonial power: they've come to pillage and plunder every form of wealth we have (especially our data).

Swan to Leavitt: "The president has long said that it would be an abuse of power for a president to direct prosecutors to investigate him. Last week, President Trump explicitly directed the DOJ to scrutinize Chris Krebs ... how is that not an abuse of power?" (Note that Leavitt has no response.)

Republicans have the numbers to impeach Trump in the House and convict him in the Senate. From here on out, they are complicit with everything he does.

The constitutional crisis is here. The President is disobeying lawful court orders. His advisors and allies are cheering him on. And Kilmar Abrego Garcia remains trapped in a jail in El Salvador. youtu.be/HGTIELDTHOo?...

Sanders: A woman is walking down the street, a car stops, and these guys — in plain clothes and masks — grab her, throw her into the car, and take off. That happened in Vermont today. That’s the kind of thing that happens in dictatorships, not in a democracy.

AOC: Only 2% of people on Medicaid are able-bodied.. I saw Mike Johnson saying we have to stop all the able-bodied men from being on Medicaid — as if it’s a crime for someone to have healthcare in America. Healthcare is a human right, and everyone should have it.

Tea Pain and She Pain are enjoying the heck out of Switzerland, and though the Swiss are perennially neutral, the distaste for Donald Trump here is palpable. Everywhere we go, when people find out we’re from the US, their first reaction is a sour-faced smack down of the Trump administration.

This is a lie. Here's how Mr. Abrego gets back. 1. Bukele releases him from CECOT. 2. The US gives him humanitarian parole as part of the court order requiring them to facilitate his return. 3. His family buys him a plane ticket. 4. He flies home. THIS ISN'T HARD.

Elon Musk said he’d cut the federal budget by $2 trillion Quickly lowered this to $1 trillion Now he’s down to $150 billion And even THAT appears to be an overestimate of $92 billion So-after firing thousands of workers and destroying government services This clown will cut $58 billion Maybe

Last night at the Governor’s Residence, we experienced an attack not just on our family, but on the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This kind of violence has become far too common in our society, and it has to stop.
