An up or down vote on extending the ACA subsidies, and I would add a separate up or down vote the same day to release the Epstein files.

Indicting your political enemies because they’re your enemies, not because they’ve committed crimes, is unAmerican.

1/ Listen: the people who can’t afford ACA hikes or are getting kicked off Medicare are the priority. But…last year my company saw a 17% increase in healthcare costs. This year we are projecting 20%.

Every year for idk a decade has been at least 10%

We’re watching an entire political party actively protect the single most infamous sex-trafficking operation of our time.

This isn’t just silence—it’s complicity at the highest level.

Fox was at one time a news network...then they became a performance site. Then they became an alt-right propaganda site. Now they are the facist, Trump controlled propaganda site .

Just bone chilling. And when the imprisonment of critics is combined with his offer to enrich and immunize his loyalists, this is how democracies die fast.

But it's still our choice. Don't let him silence you.

Schiff: "You begin to wonder -- do they believe they have the authority by putting some groups on a list, even domestic groups, to use lethal force against them, with no trial, no due process, no nothing? The reality is we can't rule that out."

You don't MAKE PROOF. What a stupid idiot. Did he sleep through junior high when they taught about the scientific method. You don't decide on a fact & then search for proof. You take a problem & search for answers gathering proof along the way. When you reach the solution .you already have proof.

Letitia James and James Comey have the best lawyers on earth and will almost certainly be fine. The fact that there’s a zillion stories about them and virtually none about NSPM-7 - which affects countless ordinary people - really says something about who the media writes for

Giving a bunch of ignorant, hateful, easily threatened goons carte blanche to roam American cities and abuse unarmed citizens was always a horrible idea, but wait until their budget explodes when the Big Bullshit Bill kicks in and their ranks swell.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..
