Critical programs dismantled, thousands of jobs lost, countless lives ruined and everyone worse off.

And the debt is now higher than ever.

DOGE was a failure of leadership to the highest degree.

Ex-Trump supporter: "I did believe that the election was stolen. I believed that the rioters were patriots until I switched off Fox News and started getting news and information from other places. That's when it finally hit."

Since electing a socialist:

NYC economy is booming.
NYC crime rate is down.

So conservatives are just raging about thermostat settings. Get wrecked.

Mamdani: There is a term so often used to describe our nation and those who have shaped it: American exceptionalism. 

American exceptionalism, the conventional wisdom tells us, makes our freedom a little more free, is how we dug the Erie Canal and irrigated the West, is why children in far away lands grow up dreaming of one day moving here.

And yet the irony is that the story of America has so often been written by those who were told by others with power and influence and wealth that they were anything but exceptional.

For generation after generation, we have been told that when the world has sent its people to our shores, it has not sent its best. It sent Puritans and Sikhs and Quakers and Muslims and Jewish people who were banished for praying the wrong way, worshipping the wrong Gods, angering the wrong people. It sent peasants and serfs from who were treated as less because they hardly owned clothes, let alone land. It sent immigrants for whom power was something someone else had.

We are told that America is exceptional because we are richer, stronger, more powerful than everyone else.

The truth, my friends, is that America is exceptional because here, nothing is fixed into place. The frontier may be closed, we may have walked on the moon, but the work of fulfilling the values first enshrined in the Declaration of Independence-that work endures, my friends, and it belongs to us all.

It belongs too to our newest Americans, those standing here with me today, all of whom were recently naturalized. Nearly a decade ago, I too felt what you feel— the joy of no longer being just a New Yorker, but an American too.

It’s a pretty widely accepted fact that stupid people are happier and less aware of the world around them, so it’s always weird when maga thinks this is a mic drop.

To the conservatives whining about SCOTUS’s ruling on birth right citizenship:

I’m sorry the Constitution is happening to you.

[Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost @RepMaxwellFrost]

Last year, I stopped by the Rules Committee to call out Congressional Republicans for claiming to be "pro-life" while refusing to act on gun violence and voting for Trump's Big Ugly Bill that ripped away health care from millions of Americans.

Now, millions have lost their health care.

My point still stands.

AOC on JD Vance: “He wants more of the same. He doesn’t want anything to change in this country. He wants to continue the reality that corruption is normal and he loves the way the country is being governed right now. He loves that you can start an illegal war and make tons of people rich and send Americans into harms way and it’ll barely be a blip on people’s radars. His vision for the future is exactly the same and your life won’t change so long that he’s in charge”

MAGA: Obama is gay and Michelle is a man

Us: There is a sworn under oath affidavit that accuses Donald Trump of brutally r*ping a 13 year old girl with Jeffrey Epstein

We are not the same

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Under federal law, Epstein Files must be released. Names can be redacted to protect the victim, but not the perpetrator.

Everyone involved in the cover up of Epstein Files related to trump will be investigated. And if the facts warrant, a future Administration will prosecute.

[Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera]

Disgusting and outrageous. Whoever is responsible for the false reports that former Transportation Secretary and combat veteran Pete Buttigieg and his husband pose a threat to their four-year-old twins should be criminally and harshly charged.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Today marks four months since Donald Trump plunged us into his war with Iran.

Servicemembers have lost their lives, civilians have been killed, and this war has cost the American people billions in tax dollars and higher gas prices.

And Trump's “deal” hasn't made our world safer, nor has it brought a lasting peace.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

KARL: Republicans are gonna make you the poster child for the Democratic Party

MAMDANI: Let them. We don't have to ask ourselves what life looks like if a socialist wins. I won last November, and over the course of these last 6 months, what we've delivered for working people are the very things we were told were impossible.

[Blue Georgia @BlueGeorgia]

Bill Maher on the SAVE Act: Every American will have to appear in person with a birth certificate, photo ID, and a passport.

Raphael Warnock: This is not a voter ID bill. It's a voter suppression bill because Trump knows that his presidency is an abject failure. He does not want people to vote.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious.

Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal. https://t.co/72wxaVLzVT
