El-Sayed: "I believe our kids have a right to our tax dollars. I'm about 10 min away from schools that look like they did 50 years ago. Our money should be spent here rather than sent in the form of bombs or tanks to foreign govts, particularly when they are doing most heinous things with them ... "

With all the revealed corruption, the nominees who lied to their faces, will the Senate committee confirm Trump’s personal lawyer as Attorney General of the U.S. ??? As Sen. Whitehouse said, his Republican colleagues are willingly blind, deaf and mute... @atrupar.com bsky.app/profile/atru...
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayWhitehouse: "The last Q I'm left with is what's left of this committee? What's left when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has this DOJ been asked what became of the $50k the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our Republican colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil"

El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"

El-Sayed: "Mike, I'm gonna say it right now, I know you're gonna say no because you're a coward: Five debates, alright? ... By the time we're done, you are not gonna have safe quarter from people holding you accountable to what you've done for them here in Michigan. We will send you back to Florida"
i'm under the impression that the spacex chunk hitting the moon is accidental which, if true, is a genuinely impressive failure in as in the context of how large space is, statistically, the moon arguably does not exist
“The fight isn’t over yet.” Jeffrey Epstein survivor Danielle Bensky says Todd Blanche’s confirmation effort is “depressing,” but she’s not giving up. Don’t let the Epstein files disappear from the conversation. Survivors deserve justice. ⚖️ #SheShed #VivaHerAlliance

Capital One closed HUNDREDS of bank accounts associated with Trump & his businesses in 2021 for "anti-money laundering reasons." Any President engaging in money laundering should be a national scandal. But in the Trump era, this news is barely a blip. Disgraceful.

Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
