Hochul: "They promised to extract revenge on their political enemies & apparently any state that has a D gov. Tell me how Florida & Texas could receive these same funds w/o having to go to court? They're playing politics, but more than that, they're playing with people's lives. And that's abhorrent"

Himes: If you've got the capability to blow a boat out of the water, you've got the capability to interdict it, arrest everyone on board, interrogate them, and find out where it was going, where it came from, who the bosses are, and what the distribution networks look like.

I urge our nation to use this weekend's No Kings marches as a declaration of independence against the tyranny and lawlessness currently running this country.

Use your voice. ACT PEACEFULLY. Protect yourself and your community.

Karoline Leavitt is a complete disgrace.

Her violent and unhinged rhetoric is going to get someone killed.

These extremists are sick people.

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

Racism is the reason the Voting Rights Act was made into law in the first place!

When were White people ever denied voting rights in America prior to VRA or discriminated against at all?🤔

I'll wait. 🔥☕️

It should be a litmus test for Democratic presidential primary candidates whether they will restore the White House and DC public properties to exactly the way they were before the Palm Beach lounge lizard decided to turn it into Mar-a-Lago meets 1936 Nuremberg.

On top of detaining U.S. citizens, ICE is now fining legal residents for not carrying their papers.

It was never about going after the “worst of the worst.” It was always about cruelty.

A woman gets duly elected by the people and the government refuses to allow her to do her job.

What the hell is going on in the US? What a shit government system you have there. It's an incredible mess.
