Trump sycophant Lindsay Graham just said on national television that if Trump doesn't get what he wants, we must declare war against North Korea and destroy them. We are talking about potentially hundreds of thousands of human casualties here. We should be terrified.

What I heard from the women being held at the federal detention facility today was saddening and disturbing. They cried so much. Every asylum-seeker should be immediately released, reunited with their children and connected to legal services. Anything less is cruel and barbaric.


In March 2014, our favorite beauty pageant impresario boasts of how well Putin treats him. And explains how the invasion of Crimea reveals Putin’s smarts and Obama’s weakness.


"The people of Crimea, from what I've heard, would rather be with Russia than where they were."


The President’s irrelevant and baseless arguments against the #ACA won’t stand in court. We’re intervening to protect the health care of millions of Americans.


Fellow Republicans, this is not who we are. This cannot be our party.


Felt the need to get back over to the FDR Presidential Library today. They are displaying these US Government posters from 1943.

"Very nearly every elected member of the Republican Congress has chosen Trump and party over our country. It is shameful."


When the US sends its people to Singapore, they're not sending their best people. They're not sending experts. They’re sending people that have lots of problems. They’re bringing conmen. They’re bringing Nazis. They’re bringing warmongers. And some, I assume, are morons.


EPA’s climate change website went down a year ago for ‘updating.’ It’s still not back.

Russia's economy isn't even in the top 10. (California's economy is bigger than Russia). Why Russia?


Remember: Mercers and Bannon produced a dossier filled with Trump’s mafia ties. Still hasn’t seen the light of day


Our national security relationship with Canada is vital and saves American lives. It was built over generations and is bigger than any person or dispute. This too shall pass.


Oops!

This is pretty wild. Trump is saying that his steel and aluminum tariffs, which are officially being imposed on "national security" grounds, are actually a response to Canada's milk protectionism.


House Speaker Paul Ryan at Orrin Hatch gala in SLC: "There’s a lot of talk about impeachment from this resist crowd. I wonder if anybody’s told this resist crowd that next in line is Mike Pence, then me, then Sen. Hatch."

Dick Thornburgh, ex-Att’y General and lifelong Republican: "We must all speak out and work to protect the special counsel’s investigation from interference. As Republicans, we owe that much to our party. As citizens, we all owe even more to our country."


PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meek and mild during our @G7 meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that, “US Tariffs were kind of insulting” and he “will not be pushed around.” Very dishonest & weak. Our Tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy!
