@larainenewman These are important questions. Also, I remember a demon voice coming out of you on SNL, growling in English “Your mama eats kitty litter.”

@KrisKobach1787 Spoken like the amoral hack you are.

@BillKristol Well said!

@DonaldJTrumpJr Dear #PresidentBoneSpurs, #PresidentBankruptcies, #PresidentScrewSmallBusinessContractorsWhoOutfittedMyBullshitHotels: Go fuck yourself.

Tamir Rice, 12 years-old black boy carrying a TOY GUN was percieved as a BLACK MAN carrying a GUN in an OPEN CARRY STATE of OHIO.

He was SHOT and KILLED by police.

@realDonaldTrump Whatever. You’re a psychopath and a monster. Keep eating McDonalds. Lots and lots of it.

Every Trump voter should have to watch this video before they vote next year.

So what do we do Pete? What the fuck do we do? Every single decent American is heartbroken. In tears. Blown away. What do we do with the fucking outrage Pete? Cuz i’ve been make a note of it for two fucking years. What the fuck do we do to get our country back?

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Let's be very clear. You use the office of the presidency to encourage and embolden white supremacy. You use words like "infestation" and "invasion" to talk about human beings. We won't truly speak with one voice against hatred until your voice is no longer in the White House.

[Sally Yates @SallyQYates]

When our children ask us what we did when innocents were massacred, the president fomented racism, and immigrants were caged and cast as sub-human, what will we tell them? Each of us owns our individual response. And our collective response answers who we are as a country.

@moiraverse It’s like all those Christmas albums that are recorded in July.

[Tom Keogh @TomKeogh12]

@meredithk27 @JoeBiden He didn’t say anything about moms. He was talking about a sea change in American family values at the dawn of the go-go 80s. Yeah, it sounded like he had future shock; it sounded like a Greatest Generation lament. But he did not specifically denounce women in the workforce.

[Brad Simpson (bradleyrsimpson.bsky.social) @bradleyrsimpson]

I’m a historian of genocide and mass violence. Let’s be clear. Trump talks like a Nazi, like Rwandan genocidaires, like the Indonesian military folks who killed 500,000 civilians in six months in 1965. This is the pre-language of genocide, the dehumanizing of future victims.

America 2019: racists writing immigration policy, thieves writing economic policy, warmongers writing foreign policy, polluters writing environmental policy, ignoramuses writing science policy, a hired goon heading the department of justice and One Fucking Moron to Rule Them All

[Bradley Whitford @bradleywhitford]

Dead on. Spot on. @AOC, thank you.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

Don’t let anybody tell you that the other side is the side that’s got a handle on freedom. We are the party of freedom and we shouldn’t be afraid to go out there and say it.

[Tom Keogh @TomKeogh12]

@ed_solomon Get out of that hot tub time machine.

[Wajahat Ali @WajahatAli]

Robert Kraft & Jerry Jones are good young men who have had unfortunate moral lapses but we should forgive them and give them a second chance because it's the right thing to do. Meanwhile Kaepernick is a stain on the NFL and should never play again for kneeling during the anthem.

[Tom Keogh @TomKeogh12]

@TDLockett12 It makes no sense that the U.S. doesn't invest in its own people with free college education. But apparently the "poorly educated" Trumper crowd resents the idea of taxes being spent on "elites."
