I wish Ken Paxton would protect puppies the way he protects pedophiles.

Jon Ossoff just responded to reports that Trump plans to declare him an “illegitimate” senator because of nonexistent voter fraud. Every word of this is spot on. Spread it everywhere and support Ossoff!!!

🚨#BREAKING: A German soccer fan who flew to the USA but was fearful about coming because of news about criminals and people being mean...

...breaks down into TEARS, live on air saying he has FALLEN IN LOVE with America after a random man named "Bob" in Boston gave him a ride home after he was stuck at a game with no way back to his hotel

The German soccer fan's name is Sebastian, he said after meeting Bob, he extended his entire trip.

He said leaving America will hurt worse than watching Germany get knocked out of the World Cup.

"I fall in love with America. I'm sorry, it's just so emotional. Americans are not rude... if we are together, we can achieve great things."

THIS IS THE AMERICA I KNOW!!!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[Team Ossoff @TeamOssoff]

Ossoff: Just think, 250 years on, what the founders would see if they visited us today.

But wait, they would see that slavery had been abolished. They would see that Americans without land, and then women, and then the descendants of slaves had secured voting rights.

They would see that our science and discovery propelled human knowledge to unimaginable heights and that those thirteen colonies had grown into a superpower that defeated the Nazis and Communism.

They'd see a pluralist democracy, people of all colors descended from every point on Earth, stitched together out of many nations into one.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Ossoff: And, see, this is what small men like Donald Trump and Mike Collins will never understand. That our national greatness flows not through our blood or our genes, but through our ideas and our care for one another. Americans are not a race. We are a people united not by ethnicity, but by shared convictions.

Crowd: *chants USA*

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

President Obama has a unique way of ROASTING Donald Trump without mentioning him by name, and it drives Trump nuts.

He just did it again, this time in front of every living president.

Watch this. 🔥

Dems have been looking for their message for years, and @AnnieAndrewsMD just did it (in under two minutes). Take note 📝

Scott Pelley responds to Trump saying he doesn’t care about the country: “I’ve never worn the uniform, but I’ve been in combat for this country. In Afghanistan, and Iraq, Kuwait. Been shot at. Spent nights in foxholes filling up with water in the desert. I’m not aware that the president has ever done any of those things for his country. You become a journalist because you love the First Amendment, you love the country. While all the other descriptions the president used about me might be applicable, not that one”

They did, it was called America

[Jake Justice @realjakecobb]

They want you to forget. They don’t want you to see this.

Keep sharing this so we can’t forget what they did to us that day.

If this kind of video is already circulating in May, the campaign ads heading into November are going to be absolutely brutal.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Can we get this video of the #NoKings marches tweeted 1000 times??

Let’s show the world that America says NO to Trump!

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

Hey ⁦@DAGToddBlanche⁩, I saw the unredacted version of this email, and there is no reason it should be redacted from the public.

Unless, of course, you are trying to protect your master @realdonaldtrump.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

President Obama and Michelle Obama are brilliant, compassionate and patriotic Americans. They represent the best of this country.

Donald Trump is a vile, unhinged and malignant bottom feeder.

Why are GOP leaders like John Thune continuing to stand by this sick individual?

Every single Republican must immediately denounce Donald Trump’s disgusting bigotry.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

Over twenty-five years in the U.S. Navy, thirty-nine combat missions, and four missions to space, I risked my life for this country and to defend our Constitution – including the First Amendment rights of every American to speak out. I never expected that the President of the United States and the Secretary of Defense would attack me for doing exactly that.

My rank and retirement are things that I earned through my service and sacrifice for this country. I got shot at. I missed holidays and birthdays. I commanded a space shuttle mission while my wife Gabby recovered from a gunshot wound to the head– all while proudly wearing the American flag on my shoulder. Generations of servicemembers have made these same patriotic sacrifices for this country, earning the respect, appreciation, and rank they deserve.

Pete Hegseth wants to send the message to every single retired servicemember that if they say something he or Donald Trump doesn’t like, they will come after them the same way. It’s outrageous and it is wrong. There is nothing more un-American than that.

If Pete Hegseth, the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in our country’s history, thinks he can intimidate me with a censure or threats to demote me or prosecute me, he still doesn’t get it. I will fight this with everything I’ve got — not for myself, but to send a message back that Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump don’t get to decide what Americans in this country get to say about their government.

[Dan Pfeiffer @danpfeiffer]

Republicans will publicly breathe a sigh of relief, but a 13-point shift to the Ds in a nationalized race with midterm-level turnout is absolutely terrible news for the Republicans and a big rebuke of Trump.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Starbucks paid its new CEO $96 million for just four months of work.

In four years, it has failed to sign a contract with nearly 12,000 of its union workers.

This is what corporate greed is all about.

I stand with Starbucks workers.
