Native Texan, Democrat, Liberal, & Intuitive. I’m pissed that that Texas & the USA voted these grifters into office again! Vote against Fascism! 🗳️Blue

It seems the White House may have uploaded that video unintentionally. It's now been made private.

But I downloaded it, so here's the full WH feed of the Easter lunch earlier today.

Trump does sound a bit more candid here than he does in front of reporters.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Great sitting down with @BrianTylerCohen to talk about everything from the courage we saw in Minnesota, to how Democrats can be true to our values and get stuff done, to how we’re building a community of changemakers at the @ObamaFoundation. https://t.co/xyskxKbM8n

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

To make sure the “right people” are voting? Who the fuck are the “right people?” And it’s not government’s job to choose our leaders. It’s the American people’s job. I served in Congress with Kristi Noem. It’s not at all surprising to hear her spew this un-American shit.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Thanks to Trump, right-wing multibillionaire Larry Ellison will now control the TikTok algorithm, along with:

CBS
MTV
The Free Press
BET
CMT
Simon & Schuster
Nickelodeon
Paramount+
Pluto TV
and more

This is what Oligarchy looks like.

“Get it all on record now — get the films — get the witnesses — because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.”

Dwight D. Eisenhower, after visiting liberated concentration camps in April 1945

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

It wasn't long ago that women were forced to have a male co-signer to get a credit card or a home loan.

Now, the Trump administration wants to end protections against such discrimination.

Take 45 seconds today to say "No way." https://t.co/dXGa0WKXUJ

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Donald Trump and Greg Abbott played with fire, got burned -- and democracy won.

This ruling is a win for Texas, and for every American who fights for free and fair elections.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Raskin: The speaker says, why now? Why now? Well, Mr. Speaker, you were the one who refused to swear in Adelita Grijalva for 50 days. We would have done it 50 days ago. So why now, it was because of your dilatory tactics, your delay, your postponement of it.

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

If Paramount Skydance merges with Warner Bros, one giant media conglomerate would control:

HBO
CNN
CBS News
Showtime
TBS
Comedy Central
TNT
Paramount+
TLC
HGTV
Nickelodeon
CBS Sports
Food Network
Discovery Channel
The CW Network
BET
MTV
VH1
& many more.

It’s a terrible deal.

[Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth]

A monstrous, illegal waste of taxpayer dollars.

Donald Trump must confirm if this estimate is true and disclose the full total he's burned through with his unlawful military deployment into our cities.

The American people deserve to know.

[chyea ok @chyeaok]

Goldberg: Do you think JD Vance is a fascist?

Buttigieg: If it’s convenient for him to be a fascist, he’ll be a fascist. Maybe later on he’ll go back to being a Silicon Valley Democrat. He’ll be whatever he needs to be.

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Senator Murphy warns that anyone with presidential ambitions better be focused on saving democracy first "because we might not have a free and fair election in 2028."

This is not a drill.

Jeffries: We are talking about a multi-million dollar slush fund that is in this bill for eight Republican senators. And unfortunately it appears that despite how outrageous this provision is, my Republicans colleagues are prepared to vote for it while they can’t find a dime to extend the ACA credits. This is real time corruption

[Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández @RepTeresaLF]

Officers were injured defending this Capitol on January 6th.

And now eight Senators snuck in a MILLION-DOLLAR PAYOUT for themselves for being investigated for their possible involvement in the insurrection.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

I’m voting no on the continuing resolution that would double healthcare premiums for 20 million Americans, kick 15 million people off Medicaid & allow 50,000 Americans to die unnecessarily every year. All to give $1 trillion in tax breaks for billionaires. https://t.co/JDkdVrs8sY

For Trump, Nothing Was Off-Limits During the Shutdown
"The strategy, White House officials said, was to wait out the Democrats, ramp up the pain and then watch as they eventually caved."

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

Millions of Americans could find themselves in a situation where they have to choose between having health insurance or paying rent.

That's on this president.

He's kicked people off Medicaid and jacked up health care premiums to pay for tax cuts for rich people.
