I am LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY at this meeting! Republican campaign consultants built their entire midterm strategy around making Mamdani into the devil incarnate and the face of Democratic Party, then Trump slobbers all over him today in the Oval!

Elizabeth Warren on Colbert's show: "We don't think one corporation or one man named David Ellison should be able to buy up all the shows and buy up all the sports and buy up all the news and decide who watches what and I'm gonna stay in that fight."

Rep. Eugene Vindman: " I want to start by condemning the president for calling for six Democratic members of Congress, all of whom are patriots who served our country to be hanged. It is the kind of thing we expect from a Saudi Crown Prince, not an American President."

Criminals are running the government, & we're forced to react constantly to stupid, incompetent, obviously illegal actions passing for governance day after day after day.

This absurd un-American administration is a stain on the dignity of the American people & a profound threat to our democracy.

Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

Mark Kelly: "He's talked about sending troops into more cities, he's talked about invoking the Insurrection Act. You don't have to go too far back to his 1st administration when he went to his Sec Def & said, 'Can't we just shoot these protesters in the legs.' That is an example of an illegal order"

Loved joining the Sussex County Democratic Committee this week to celebrate the wins from earlier this month and talk about the road ahead to flipping CD-7.

Together, we’re building the team that’s going to flip this seat next year. Come join us!
