He called Trump mentally unwell (or something like that) and unfit for office. He called out Trump’s use of troops as pawns in his grab for power. This is how it’s done!

I have been very impressed with his leadership in resistance to Krasnov. No more than today. He didn’t miss a single point and he tore Krasnov a new asshole in doing it.

Pritzker and Newsom are providing great examples of leadership for their fellow Democratic representatives. I hope that they’re listening. IMHO, we need to directly and forcefully call out these fascists for who they are - kidnappers, murderers, sexual abusers, thugs, wannabe dictators, …. Call out Trump’s painfully clear physical and mental decline, and why it’s important. State the obvious - they’re colluding with Russia to destroy our country. We need to bluntly state that they’re trying to kill you with their Republican policies. Hold daily press availabilities on the hill calling out their latest insanities. And the press will be forced to cover these events since they’re so unexpected.

*I* needed to hear this!! I don't give a fig about MAGAts and what they hear or don't hear.

My soul needs to hear loud strong defenses of decency, humanity and democracy.

My jaw dropped listening to this. I'm so glad I did. He is definitely promoting the public good, no corrupt motive in sight.
