Ossoff: "Here's what's going to happen tonight: the world's most famous sore loser will deliver a prime-time presidential sour grapes address to pursue his 6-year-old grievances about the 2020 election, while his war in the Middle East spirals out of control and the cost of living continues to rise for Americans across the country. I expect the president to reheat debunked conspiracy theories about the repeatedly litigated and audited and confirmed 2020 presidential election in Georgia, an election that Donald Trump lost. And let me be very clear about this: if the President declares Georgia's election illegitimate, or if the President declares Georgia's sitting United States Senators illegitimate, he is declaring Georgia voters illegitimate. It's Donald Trump who tried to defraud Georgia voters in that election, Donald Trump who tried to commit election fraud when he called Georgia's Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger -- and it was caught on tape, and you should play the tape to your viewers today -- and badgered and bullied Georgia's top election official to 'find him' the votes that he needed to win in a state where he had lost."

🚨BREAKING: The drained Reflecting Pool did not reveal any slices. Instead, tire marks were visible, obvious damage from Trump’s vanity drive in a fleet of 10-ton vehicles for no reason at all. He ruined his own project, then lied and blamed the citizens who paid for it.

#BREAKING: Psaki: “Since 1978, every U.S. president has had to file annual disclosure reports listing all of their holdings and all the money they made the past year, and I just want to put in perspective for you what these often look like. This, right here was the last financial disclosure report for President Barack Obama. It is 8 PAGES long, thats it, 8 PAGES long, and this BEHEMOTH right here is Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosure report. It is more than 900 PAGES long, and this financial disclosure is almost 700 PAGES longer than the one he filed in 2024, which basically means that the current president has made A WHOLE LOT of money since taking office…The Trump administration claims that this is all above board, totally legitimate, nothing to see here.”🙄

Donald Trump's State Fair is closed due to the following weather conditions: Mostly vacant, with periods of no-shows, followed by extreme emptiness, with 2% precipitation and 98% humiliation.

[Lis Smith @Lis_Smith]

It is truly sickening that @PeteButtigieg & his four-year-old children were dragged into this vile smear.

Pete is the most loving and devoted father I know, & his children are SO lucky to have him.

No matter your politics, this should horrify you.

[The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center @TheKingCenter]

A moral shame and miscarriage of justice.

[The Green Dragon Tavern @greendragonhq]

MAGA calls Michelle Obama a man because they can’t attack her character.

MAGA calls James Talarico a vegan because they can’t attack his character.

They spread conspiracies about Dr. Fauci because they can’t attack his character.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

.@BarackObama: Honesty, integrity, kindness, and compassion, a sense of duty and honor. These are the values I believe in. They are not Republican or Democratic. They are American values. Values every President here today has tried our best to uphold.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

Trump gets:

- $100M arch
- $1B ballroom fund
- A gold coin with his face on it
- A $1.8B slush fund for his MAGA buddies

Meanwhile, he's left Americans with higher grocery bills, higher health care costs, and higher gas prices.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

The President is now exempt from our tax laws while everyone else has to obey them.

Got it.

It's just mind blowing that is what's happening in America.

[Governor Gavin Newsom @CAgovernor]

Our institutions need to function, again.

We need a functioning Department of Justice.
We need a functioning IRS.
We need a functioning FBI.

Not allow them to become power ministries for the dear leader, @realDonaldTrump.

[JB Pritzker @JBPritzker]

Donald Trump is stealing $1.776 billion from taxpayers to enrich himself and reward his political allies.

This isn't subtle. It's corruption in plain sight.

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

Just because a President announces he’s agreed to a two week ceasefire moments before he threatened to commit war crimes, does not mean he is suddenly fit to serve. #25thAmendment

[President Roslin @RoslinResists]

Basically, Trump and the Republicans will eliminate/reduce funding for any program that improves your life… weather forecasting… affordable housing… job training… food…

They. Do. Not. Care. About. Us.

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country, we have 50 states, all these people, we're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things

[Dutch Rojas @DutchRojas]

Your doctor went to medical school for 12 years. The person denying your claim went through a two-week training module.

[Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray]

REMINDER: Democrats tried SIX TIMES to fund the parts of DHS that Congress agrees on—like paying TSA workers, FEMA, and cyber defense.

Republicans blocked us every single time.

[Senator Ruben Gallego @SenRubenGallego]

If you can’t afford your health care right now, it’s not because we don’t have money for it. It’s because Republicans would rather fund a useless war than help you keep your insurance.
