Dr. Abdul El-Sayed: Rep. Haley Stevens and I shared a call this morning. She loves democracy like I love democracy. Whatever differences we might've had in the primary pale in comparison to what unifies us. All of us have to come together to make sure that we never let Mike Rogers see the US Senate.

Dr. Abdul El-Sayed: What a race. I wanna say how grateful I am for the opportunity to participate in democracy. My family immigrated to this country from a place where there is not democracy. The ability to have our voices heard, to select our leaders, it is a gift that sometimes we take for granted

Q: If a member of Congress is facing allegations of domestic abuse, should they continue to serve in that role? Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune: Well I mean- I think again that's something that the- the- um, House of Representatives, that's a House matter

Sen. Merkley: Last year, Republicans said 'we don't like this Medicaid program, so we're going to cut it.' So they slashed over $1T from the Medicaid program, and it will kick more than 15 million Americans off their health insurance. Less affluent families lose, and billionaires win.

Mayor Mamdani: We are incredibly proud to announce that we have filled our first seats for free 2K programs. Next month, 2,000 of New York's cutest will begin learning, playing, and growing at 2K programs across 4 areas of our city. 100% of these families will save over $20,000 per child, per year

Q: Epstein survivors said your yes vote on Todd Blanche would have a chilling effect on survivors of sexual assault, what is your response? Republican Senator Cornyn: I don't believe there is anything we can do to assuage them. That's one of those things that can't be remedied

Sen. Booker: A slush fund had been created for Trump to dole out to people that stormed the Capitol. You have conservatives saying these things are not worth the paper they're drawing on. We got no guarantees that this slush fund can't go forward. We got nothing that Trump can't cheat on his taxes.

Sen. Whitehouse: There is an ongoing proceeding in Florida in federal court whether Todd Blanche committed a fraud upon the court. It's so bad that in the history of the Department of Justice, no senior official has ever been even accused. And we're advancing this guy before that question is settled

Sen. Whitehouse: You could get rid of the anti-weaponization fund for $1.8B, and in a month put out the Trump Justice Fund for $1.9B. Nothing in this document prevents anything like that from happening. You could open a drive-up window at the Department of Justice for cop beaters from January 6th.

Trump's US attorney for DC, Jeanine Pirro, has dropped charges against 4 people the Trump administration baselessly accused of "vandalizing" the Reflecting Pool after its botched renovation. Trump is reportedly "furious" that Pirro has dropped charges against them.
