@michael-feinberg.bsky.social: "These individuals all took an oath to uphold the Constitution. The very point of an oath is you follow it regardless of the personal consequences. If you're not willing to make those sacrifices, you should not be raising your right hand and reciting the oath."

Meiselas: What do you say to people who say while Governor Mills has been a great governor, she’s 77 years old, and we need younger leadership?

Mills: It’s a fair point… But I don’t think I could live with myself if I didn’t do everything I can to reverse what’s going on in Washington

"They know that in a functioning one-person-one-vote democracy, they could never pass the unpopular self-enriching policies they want. So they know they must focus on preserving and expanding the precedents that permit them to buy American democracy."

Meiselas: How do you see yourself in that race versus Graham Platner?

Mills: We’ve run people against Susan Collins before, and she won because we ran people who were untested… I’m the only one in the race who’s actually won an election

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

He is literally the dumbest mother fucker I’ve ever heard. He has one personality and it doesn’t include funny, sarcastic, happy, empathetic or loyal. He’s as flat and boring as they come and everything that comes out of his mouth is horrendously embarrassing.
