“Prophet without a party” - @WSJ. It’s time for change. Everyone’s Invited! 🇺🇸

As I bid farewell to Congress today, I depart more deeply in love with my country and more deeply disgusted by the dysfunction of our government.

We can and must do better, and my mission to awaken America's exhausted majority and make common sense cool again is just beginning.

Better definition of hypocrisy than Webster’s.

Edited comments of Sen Marco Rubio, R-Fl, September 2016, raising questions about providing billions to Iran as part of a nuclear deal given the regime’s funding of terrorism.

Eager for the next President of the United States - whether a Republican or Democrat - to restore the dignity of the office, the nation, and Air Force One.

"Well done, good and faithful servant.”

America should be treating the Iranian regime with more disdain and the Iranian World Cup team with more hospitality.

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

First time the man has ever acknowledged failure:

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

Hard to believe the “deal” being circulated is legitimate and has been signed by President Trump.

If true, it will rank among the most consequential and costly strategic blunders in recent history.

700,000 American households (the top .5%) hold $40 trillion in assets.

Our federal debt, essentially a credit card for the affluent, is also $40 trillion.

Does anyone agree we must acknowledge the debt disaster and develop a payment plan?

Let’s just count mail-in ballots received by election day and end this nonsense.

Between the Olympics and Sabres fans, hockey has done more to inspire unity and fraternity than any politician this year. #pucklove

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

I support the removal of the Iranian regime, including the use of military force to prevent nuclear capability.

I also support investing as much money as that takes ($25b so far) to ensure every American has healthcare and a roof over their head. #AmericaFirst

A meaningful Easter to all the world’s Christians, and may peace and reconciliation pave the path ahead.

.@RahmEmanuel is the best candidate in the ‘28 Democratic mix whose style and substance would serve America well.

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

Rahm Emanuel is delivering the Democratic Party a dose of tough medicine—in his usual blunt style—as the party enters a critical midterm primary season https://t.co/OoBSwGoGzR

Apparently @jamestalarico won with a huge turnout from young adults. Want to know why? Here is my guess:

On social media, the algorithms give you more of what you consume. Talarico’s messages are positive. To the point of being “syrupy”.

Voters that committed to watching his social posts, got more of not only his posts, but also other positive messages.

Contrast that with historically negative messaging across past elections, and I think the contrast was striking and motivational for many. Enough to draw record numbers to a primary.

It may be crazy to some, but the idea of “my feed and FYP got better the more I watched his videos” is enough to get voters excited to support and vote for him.

Call it “PositivityMaxxing” 😂. But I truly believe that candidates that can give positive messages, authentically and confidently , can be part of a new successful trend. Regardless of party or office.

Thoughts ?

Newsom and Vance have traded authentic leadership for political chameleonship - the remarkable ability to say anything to ingratiate themselves w/primary voters.

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

It is exceptionally rare for tribe members to challenge their own in Congress.

Kudos to @SenThomTillis for exposing the remarkable incompetency and cowardice of @KristiNoem

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

Help me understand those calling Republicans “Nazis” while endorsing a Democrat who had the Nazi Totenkopf tattooed on his chest?

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

Friendly reminder: While @HillaryClinton would likely have solicited Congressional consent, she also planned to attack the Iranian regime.

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

Insert “in the perpetual minority” before Democratic Party.

[Justice Democrats @justicedems]

Welcome to the rest of your life Democratic Party.

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

@trevor_ewen Thanks, Trevor, but I only bet on the @Vikings so proceed with great caution.

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

No more than I think Joe Biden could have won and served another four years.

But you knew that.

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

What kind of regimes do you think forever wars have been fought against? Peaceful democracies?

[Dean Phillips @deanbphillips]

@jonfavs I misread your shade and my response was petty. Apologies.
