Rep. Ilhan Omar: "The president talked about protecting Americans, and I just had to remind him that his administration was responsible for killing two of my constituents."
Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."
Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is about—we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.
Neal Katyal: "This decision wasn't just written by some group of lefty justices, to the extent there even are any. It was enjoined by 6 justices, including 2 justices appointed by Donald Trump himself -- Gorsuch and Barrett. Both of them saying in full that these tariffs were unconstitutional."
"We are behind… How do I guarantee that if you show up to work today nothing's going to happen to you?" Construction company owner says ICE raids are decimating her workforce — After 15 years, she fears this will be her last year as projects fall weeks behind. (From @wcconews.bsky.social )
Neal Katyal: "In America, the chief justice said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are. Tariffs are taxes."
SCOTUS has affirmed what we’ve always known: Trump’s reckless tariffs are illegal & unconstitutional. This is a victory for working people & small businesses, and the $134 billion in revenue should go to them. #TrumpTariffRefund

Epstein survivor Lisa Phillips reacts to Todd Blanche: I’m actually shaking right now. I want to fucking cry. It makes me so sick. And he has a wedding ring on. Like, really—how does he go home to his wife. I’m looking at the files right now that shows names…

It's not that the truth doesn't matter to them. It's that the lies are essential to their survival.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 7mo agoKaroline Leavitt lies shamelessly: "Under Joe Biden, murders were up. Violent crime was up." (Biden brought crime dramatically down from where it was in 2020, the last year of Trump's first term)
Buttigieg on Fox News: "Seeing an American taken to the ground, having his gun removed, being shot in the back 10 times, then having the govt say he was a terrorist all along based on no evidence.. those are kinds of things that as painful as they are, can actually bring together a lot of Americans"
Buttigieg on Fox News: "How did this criminal get a pardon from President Trump? Did he contribute to the ballroom project? Did he buy some of that cryptocurrency and make the Trump family wealthier? Why are these many fraudsters getting these pardons?"
Mamdani: "I said to the president directly that these ICE raids are cruel & do nothing to actually serve the interests of public safety. Public safety is of paramount importance to us. But to use it as a justification to pull people out of their cars, out of their homes, out of their lives ... "
Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan. Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”
In response to Trump’s trade war, the rest of the world makes free trade agreements while Trump fires off new manic tariffs weekly every time another leader says something he doesn’t like.
Honoring #AlexPretti ~ Goodnight. 😭🙏🏾 #SheShed #Pinks #DefundICE #TrumpsAmerica
TAPPER: They're asking for voter roll information after the death of Alex Pretti. What was it like to see that letter? SIMON: It was really deeply disturbing. Literally hours after the second killing of a citizen in Minneapolis by ICE agents, there's this ransom note
