LISTEN: There are a lot of folks out here working tirelessly to get the truth out there. Replying to us that nothing matters because there'll be no consequences is not only incorrect, but it belittles the work we do. It's insulting and shortsighted. Stop following us if you don't want the info.

This cracks me up because decades ago he would’ve called the halftime show a distraction from the game, a feminization of the NFL, and a way for women to encroach on men’s spaces.
Long story short, they just enjoy being miserable.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

This is no different than when they said gay marriages would negatively affect straight marriages.
Gonzales on Liam Ramos and his family: "They're not gonna qualify for asylum. So what do you do with all the people that go through the process and do not qualify for asylum? You deport them. I understand that 5-year-old and it breaks my heart. I also think, what about that 5-year-old US citizen?"

Schiff on the SAVE Act: "Jonathan, what you've just asked is essentially, Republicans have created distrust in the elections by making claims of nonexistent fraud, and shouldn't we use the distrust they've created in order to enact a voter suppression law?"

This is a very real concern, but I think it would backfire. The GOP’s success with voter suppression has worked because it’s mostly been done clandestinely. Trying to openly intimidate Americans from voting would drive them to the polls in larger numbers.
Warner: "There is a very real threat without reforms at ICE that you could have ICE patrols around polling stations. And people say, 'Why would that matter if they're all American citizens?' We've seen ICE discriminate against Latinos ... you don't need to do a lot to discourage people from voting"

BRENNAN: Do you think the president needs to apologize for the video?
REP. TONY GONZALES: It's up to the president. There's no room in the country for racism, antisemitism, socialism -- all the isms need to go. What no one is talking about is the video was about election integrity.

"As the nation’s only Black governor, I can’t ignore that being singled out for exclusion from this bipartisan tradition carries an added weight — whether that was the intent or not"

“Strong” is one of the last few adjectives he can remember.
"Certainly, it was a very strong post in terms of voter fraud" -- i was out and about last night, but want to note that Trump's defense of his blatantly racist Truth Social post is totally demented
