In case you were wondering what @realDonaldTrump was doing in 1973, he was getting sued by the Justice Department for systematically excluding African-Americans and Puerto Ricans from apartments he owned.

I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT @KamalaHarris

I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT @ewarren

I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT @PeteButtigieg

I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT @CoryBooker

I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT ALL the candidates, not just one.

We have a great field, let's give them the positive attention the media won't.

[Matt Fuller @MEPFuller]

It took Trump about...

-35 days
-Two missed pay periods
-40,000 delayed immigration cases
-Federal workers resorting to food pantries
-AND 1 HOUR OF HALTED FLIGHTS AT LAGUARDIA

...To end the shutdown.

In case anyone questioned who this administration really cares about.

[David Frum @davidfrum]

Wondering if first round of 2020 presidential debates should not be a spelling bee

[Brian Schatz @brianschatz]

The tax cuts didn’t work.

[Mikel Jollett @Mikel_Jollett]

Let me get this straight,

This con man sold the Wall as something “Mexico” would pay for but now he’s making 800,000 federal employees go without paychecks OVER CHRISTMAS if US taxpayers won’t pay for it?

[Mikel Jollett @Mikel_Jollett]

I don’t care what party you belong to, if you’re attacking a teenager who survived a massacre then got himself into Harvard, you’re a fucking asshole.

[Jules Suzdaltsev @jules_su]

An “Irish Exit” is when you leave without saying goodbye.

A “British Exit” is when you loudly announce that you’re leaving and then wander in and out of the door while you decide if you really want to leave or not, angrily complaining the whole time.

[MaeMae @maiamimi]

Time to get it the f*ck together and stop bashing 2020 contenders. I’m seeing a scary # of tweets about refusing to vote for Biden, Sanders, Booker, etc. There will be a Democratic primary and we better commit to voting for the winner, no matter how imperfect, or we WILL lose.

[Peter Daou @peterdaou]

YOU, @LindseyGrahamSC, ARE CALLING THREE WOMEN LIARS. SHAME ON YOU.

YOU ARE TELLING EVERY GIRL IN AMERICA THAT IT'S OK FOR BOYS TO SEXUALLY ASSAULT THEM.

AND THAT YOU'LL SCREAM AND CALL THEM LIARS IF THEY COME FORWARD.

[Amy Siskind @Amy_Siskind]

This is fucking disgusting.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

The tides of our nation swirl on Capitol Hill. And I see a woman, a private citizen, a human being, who asked for none of this... then... or now. Her voice echoes her fear and courage. It's a poignant reminder that the balance of history often pivots on unlikely fulcrums.

[George Takei @GeorgeTakei]

Dr. Ford is a courageous and credible person. I have deep respect for her, and I thank her for her testimony.

[Ana Navarro-Cárdenas @ananavarro]

In a normal world, there should be a medical team waiting to transport Trump to the psych ward after the kind of behavior we just saw displayed at that press conference.
#PresidentLoco

[Nancy Pelosi @TeamPelosi]

They're so afraid of the truth. They're terrified of women. Brett Kavanaugh must withdraw. RT if you agree. #KavaNO

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

Reminder that George Zimmerman is still allowed to purchase and own guns - despite a history of shooting and killing a teen, domestic violence, and threats and stalking. Because America.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

I can’t believe this still needs to be said in 2018, but every woman deserves access to safe, affordable, and comprehensive reproductive health care — and that includes abortion.

[jordan @JordanUhl]

You will never, ever convince me that the only antidote to gun violence is crossfire in a public place.

[Brian Schatz @brianschatz]

Hey do me a personal favor and don’t vote third party this year. ✊🏽🇺🇸
