Booker: Do you think we got the right to vote for women because a bunch of men on the House floor got together and said “on the count of three, women get the right to vote..” That’s not how it happened… Change doesn’t come from Washington. It comes to Washington.

"We can't have a society in which some dictator can start imposing censorship here in the United States. If somebody is able to intimidate folks out of releasing a satirical movie, imagine what's going to happen when they see a story they don't like or news they don't like." - Barack Obama

Warnock: I hear people attack poor people and act like it’s a crime to be poor, rather than to recognize it’s criminal for so many people to be poor. They do all of this in the name of Jesus… Jesus is the biggest victim of identity theft in the United States

Our allies around the world aren’t afraid of us — they’re disgusted. Thanks to Trump’s “diplomacy,” they see a nation that’s lost its mind. In just six months, we’ve gone from “leaders of the free world” to pariahs “flirting with fascism.” www.americanprogress.org/article/trum...

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

This is what a rigged economy looks like: In the 1970s, CEOs made 27 times more than the average worker. In the 1980s, CEOs made 48 times more than the average worker. This decade, CEOs are making 354 times more than the average worker. That has got to change.

Arresting judges cannot be the new normal in America. I’m deeply concerned by the lack of information and partisan tone surrounding this news, and I trust my Republican colleagues will agree. It’s incumbent on all of us to uphold and protect the constitution. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/u...

More than 72 million Americans rely on Medicaid for health care coverage — that’s 1 in 5 people in this country. And 41% of ALL births care covered by Medicaid. Republicans want women pregnant with no access to maternity care. Medicaid cuts kill. #MedicaidCutsKill
