“If you can only be tall because somebody is on their knees, then you have a serious problem,” she concluded. “My feeling is that white people have a very, very serious problem. And they should start thinking about what they can do about it. Take me out of it.”- Toni Morrison

@ElieNYC not so patiently waiting for your take on the tariff case. The outcome directly affects my business. 🤬

[Lauren Hogg @lauren_hoggs]

I take personal credit for David being able to flame someone this well. It is only through years of relentless sibling roasts that he got to this level.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

****URGENT*****

Democrats,

A Democrat @AdelitaForAZ won her election in a LANDSIDE and @SpeakerJohnson will not swear her in because she will be 218th vote on the Epstein files release.

Stand up for her just like we did for @jimmykimmel!

[TheFrenchie @ML3democrats]

Republicans' worst nightmare right now is Adelita Grijalva.

Republicans refuse to swear in newly elected Democrat, delaying success of the Epstein petition

Drop a 💙 to show SUPPORT for Adelita

3 months ago, today, Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered by a Trump supporter.

They had kids, too.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

They can't spin this away. The Trump administration contacted air traffic controllers, offering buyouts to leave their jobs. It's a very easily proven fact.

Omg

@KFILE Beans touched our hearts. Her eyes - they are unforgettable. You shared her with us, thankfully. Now I often wonder how you and your family are doing. Please continue to share how you’re doing.

(THREAD) What those of us who oppose Donald Trump are saying is simply this: Trump is who Trump is. That’s all we’re saying.

Donald Trump isn’t who you *want* him to be. He’s not who you *wish* he’d be. He’s not some mere *idea* embodying the America you want. He’s *just* a PoS.

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

As Tom Berenger says: “Only one thing left to do. Win the whole fucking thing.”

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

On the bright side: no one can tell me I’m wrong about these assholes ever again…

[Eric Holder @EricHolder]

There is no cavalry coming. No miracle solution. No saviors.

In the end, we, the American people - not any of our institutions - have to save our democracy by voting in defense of that democracy this fall.

We are the cavalry. The responsibility is ours.

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

There is *nothing* you care about that survives a 6-3 Republican court for a generation. Nothing.
I don’t know how many times the Court has to prove that to people before liberals unify and act.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

Wow.

Here’s Robert De Niro’s full statement about how Donald Trump should NEVER be president again:

“I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men.  I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty.

Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly.

I see an evil one.

Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. 

Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped.

Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them.

We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego.  We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership.  We tried to warn the world in 2016.

The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination.  Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world.

We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags.

The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior.  That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse.

Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously.

So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America:
This is our last chance.

Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator.

And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided.

So what do we do about it?  I know I’m preaching to the choir here.  What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls.   We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House. 

They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice.  Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them.

Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect.  Let’s not talk about “democracy.”  “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it. 

Let’s talk about right and wrong.  Let’s talk about humanity. 

Let’s talk about kindness.  Security for our world. 

Safety for our families. 

Decency. 

Let’s welcome them back. 

We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.”
