Sanders: The irony is that the proper criticism of communism is that the Soviet Union was an authoritarian society.Β  And then you’ve got the most authoritarian president in the history of this country. So I suppose when he says, β€œI’d be a great communist,” yeah, I think there’s some truth to that

Bruce Springsteen is a prime example of how people just respond to authenticity in that he spent his entire tour making it the fuck Donald trump and his corrupt regime traveling show, trump called for a criminal investigation into him, and I mean I guess there’s no way to know but I don’t think it…

We need a journalism for the age of information warfare. β€œObjectivity” is surrender in the face of propaganda. β€œBoth sides” reporting rewards lies and kills truth. Political reality is not based facts and reason. It is based on emotion, identity, and framesβ€”moral and metaphorical.

Can you imagine actually being killed by a white supremacist in your own country at gunpoint while driving or going to work or going to an appointment about immigration or just being an American

Trump: "These disclosures reveal an election system so broken and so vulnerable that no one can possibly defend it. It is not defensible."

OSSOFF: I expect tonight's speech to be equal parts pathetic and dangerous. I think we will hear from the world's most famous sore loser, a prime time presidential sour grapes address reheating, debunked conspiracy theories about an election in which he was soundly defeated.

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 25 days in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave, is now getting all three.

Newsom: Across the spectrum, this guy is failing and increasingly flailing. It’s self-evidentβ€”the decline from a physical, emotional, and cognitive perspective. But the power that he continues to wield is real, and we have to, again, be absolutely mindful that the worst is yet to come.
