Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

WATCH — @gomez.house.gov interviews Rep. @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social : “I think 🇺🇸 has been lied to about who these people are in ICE detention. That stereotype has so consumed what we think of immigrants that we’ll put a 5-year-old kid who’s done nothing wrong in prison.”

The President of the United States raped underage women.
Attorney General Pam Bondi has seen the proof in the Epstein files and doesn't care.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.
BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned
NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

Ossoff: We would be naive not to expect dirty tricks. This man tried to steal the presidency when he lost it the first time. The best insurance against dirty tricks is landslide margins of victory.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

Trump has built a militia of criminals and sociopaths that has a larger budget than our whole military. The reason is he wants them to help him stay in office. He wants them loyal to only him.

Folds on the Kennedy Center 3 weeks ago: I was sick to my stomach when I quit because I knew they were going to run it into the ground. No one that they were appointing had any experience in arts administration, but that was never the point. The point was to take that, run over it, and move on.

The corruption of the Trump administration is beyond belief. The UAE invested $500 million in Trump's dodgy crypto venture in return for obtaining access to American AI chips that had been previously protected.
