“I don’t know why folks try to come for @staceyabrams when they know damn well that they aren’t ready.”@harrisonjaime

Stacey Abrams schools John Kennedy on “protecting the right to vote and making democracy real for all Americans”:
"What I object to were rules that permitted thousands of Georgia voters to be denied participation, to have their votes cast out… I will disagree with the system till it is fixed." Stacey Abrams to Ted Cruz

What a difference 💯 days of true leadership has made…

“The number of COVID deaths in the U.S. has dropped from 4380 people on the day that President Biden took office to about 700 people a day now.” @StevenBeschloss

“I inherited a nation in crisis. The worst pandemic in a century. The worst economic crisis since Great Depression. The worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War… After just 100 days — America is on the move again. Turning peril into possibility.”
On January 20, 3 million Americans had been fully vaccinated.

100 days later, over 100 million Americans are fully vaccinated and the United States has ADDED 1.4 MILLION JOBS.

Imagine what President Biden’s administration can accomplish in four years...
"We won't ignore what our intelligence agencies have determined to be the most lethal terrorist threat to our homeland today: White supremacy is terrorism."
— President Biden, 4/28/21 #JointSession
"Madam Speaker. Madam Vice President. No president has ever said those words from this podium. No president has EVER said those words. And IT’S ABOUT TIME." President Biden re: an extraordinary, memorable, and historic American moment 4/28/21 #JointSession
What if the corrupt pay-for-pardons scheme perpetrated by Donald Trump’s inner circle is The One Ring that binds them ALL? #JusticeIsComing 🔥
“The contrast for people to consider is 100% of our focus is on DELIVERING RELIEF TO THE PEOPLE and getting the pandemic under control.” Jen Psaki

“100% of MY focus is on stopping this new administration.” #MoscowMitch

Yap, yap, yap went Ted Cruz

“I want people to understand the significance of January 6… I want people to understand that thousands of rioters came to the Capitol hell-bent on violence and destruction and murder." DC Metro Police Officer Michael Fanone 4/27/21 @donlemon @CNNTonight

“The President* of the United States sending an angry violent mob to disrupt proceedings at the Capitol cannot stand… This is not something we can look past or pretend didn’t happen or move on… We’ve got to make sure this never happens again.” Liz Cheney
Tax that ass. Pass it on. @hasanminhaj @AnandWrites #TaxThatAss

"President* Trump bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters. He should have IMMEDIATELY denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding." Kevin McCarthy, January 13, 2021

Well, Kevin, we remember that U.S. House floor speech:
January 6 was a failed attempt to overthrow American democracy.

By purging Liz Cheney, the Republican Party completed its transformation into a fascist, Authoritarian cult.

OUR DUTY as Americans is to DEFEND DEMOCRACY and #RejectGOPFascism. @MeidasTouch
“I am sure Matt Gaetz is not feeling very comfortable today.”

That evergreen sentence was uttered by Fritz Scheller, lawyer for Joel Greenberg, associate of Matt Gaetz (Q-FL), on April 8, 2021:
“One of the most influential Dark Money groups in Republican circles is WRITING VOTER SUPPRESSION LAWS IN SECRET to make it harder for Black, Brown, and Young people to be able to VOTE.” @AriBerman to @chrislhayes

“Keep pointing this out.” @brooklynmarie
“May is #MentalHealth Awareness Month and thanks to Obamacare there are numerous resources for you to get HELP — and for the sake of our Democracy, I truly HOPE you do.” Tiffany Cross (@TiffanyDCross)

#MentalHealthMatters @CrossConnection #CrossConnection
"You can be in favor or against more government regulation and still have home in the Republican Party… The ONLY thing you cannot be is in FAVOR of VOTING RIGHTS and against #TheBigLie." @marceelias @DeadlineWH

PLEASE FOLLOW @DemocracyDocket for updates.
Our United States leadership struggle is no longer Left versus Right.

Our choice is now DEFEND DEMOCRACY or enable DICTATORSHIP.

To DEFEND DEMOCRACY, reject the radicalized Republican Party.

#DemocracyOrDictatorship #ResignRepublican @MeidasTouch
“We need TWO political parties in this country that are both LIVING IN REALITY and you (Republicans) ain’t one of them!!“ @TimRyan

#TimRyan @RepTimRyan #TimRyanForSenate
If we want this to CHANGE, begin with:

1. Abolish police unions.
2. Abolish law enforcement qualified immunity.
3. Make convicted police officers pay court judgments with their own pensions.

WITHOUT THESE CHANGES, NOTHING WILL CHANGE. #GeorgeFloydRewind
“What is it that caused thousands of people to assault this building and try to overturn the Constitution? …What is wrong with having some situational understanding about the country for which we are here to defend?”
Joint Chiefs Chair General Mark Milley

@Acyn How many elections must Trump lose before @RepRaskin no longer has to warn voters about him?

#TrumpIsANationalSecurityRisk
@Acyn @RepRaskin “Trump’s lawyer argued that as president* he could order the assassination of rivals and face no prosecution unless he’s impeached and convicted. But of course he could just kill or threaten to kill Members of Congress who dare to impeach or convict him.”


@Acyn @RepRaskin Thank you for holding Trump accountable, @RepRaskin.

“I’ll say what I want to say and if the consequence of that is losing money — so be it.”
Elon Musk to David Faber 5/16/23


“The Twitter thing is different, right? We are seeing in these recent years that Elon Musk has behaved erratically at times, that the biographical facts that you mentioned that led to him at times talking about his loneliness, his sadness…” @RonanFarrow


“You take a guy with this much power, who is talking openly about his sadness, his isolation, his loneliness… There are people around him who are concerned. And then we as a nation — and indeed as a world — have to be concerned…”

“There are so many unanswered questions…lingering. How, for example, did Biden get 15 million more votes than his former boss Obama? Was the 2020 election a miracle? Honestly we don’t know and don’t expect an answer tonight.”
