MacFarlane: The Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio has got the same issue. Last year, they paid $50,000 for diesel to transport their food. Now, they’re paying $150,000 for the diesel to transport their food.

Acosta: I think he is in full freak-out mode, sort of like that German movie Downfall, where the Allied forces are advancing on Berlin… I’m almost picturing Trump in sort of the same mindset right now. You know, “This poll says this, sir. This poll says that, sir,” and he’s losing his shit.

Sherrod Brown: Data centers really show whose side you’re on. Are you going to do the bidding of those companies from out of state that don’t give a damn about local communities? Or are you going to stand with the public?

NYC Deputy Mayor Julie Su: I think that’s part of the magic of Mayor Mamdani. What he believes deeply in is that government has an active role to play in shaping the economy, in shaping the city, and in making sure that working people have what they deserve.

Acosta: This is a Category 5 fuck-up of epic proportions. It is likely to go down as the worst presidency that we have ever witnessed in this country’s history. That tops the first administration that ended with an insurrection.

Clarke: spent a lot of time with Nolan Wells’s mother and father, and they are grieving. Nobody has been able to put forth anything that can explain why their son is not here today. There needs to be more focus on the blunt force trauma to the back of Nolan Wells’s head.

Popok: I want to make this clear. If it wasn’t for the Democratic attorneys general, led by you in this case, none of what we’ve been talking about would have occurred. Bonta: That’s right. The Trump administration has been MIA when it comes to antitrust enforcement.

MacFarlane: I'm going to be surprised if Trump fights the court ruling tooth and nail… the media ban is starving him of his oxygen, which is media attention. I'm not sure how much he wants this ban to persist himself.

MacFarlane: The White House, on Monday, announcing the justification for this ban, put on paper that the media is too beholden to the radical left. Therefore, we need to enact a ban. They wrote it, and this is part of what the attorneys are playing with on the media side—they can show their work.

MacFarlane: The judge who ordered Jim Acosta's press pass returned is the same judge hearing this case. It just happens to be Judge Tim Kelly, who will be hearing this in a few minutes. And it does have a little bit of a groundhog day feel to it…

MacFarlane: The president doesn't have surrogates in congress defending this media ban. If they are, they're awfully quiet about it. And that tells the tale…

Phang: We are priming the court every step of the way to show that my war for the entirety of the files is a well-founded one. Because every time they file a response, they keep on making this Keystone Cops move of total incompetence… all they’re doing is showing their asses

Mother of Renee Good: I voted for Trump under the impression that these agents were here to protect the citizens of the US, innocents like our family and the others here, against terrorists. Certainly not to accuse those of us here of being terrorists and take precious lives. This is madness.

FOX: We’re active with Iran—how do you get out? El-Sayed: You don’t get in in the first place. We had an agreement that had contained nuclear weapons. We did not need to do this, so the first time the dunce got elected he pulled back on the agreement.

Bensky: I had met one woman who had been to 42 Trump rallies—she’s very well known in the community. And she said that when Trump had said, “Are we still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?” that something in her switched. She said, “I can’t support him. I can’t support MAGA.”

Clarke: It’s hard to take Justice Thomas and Justice Alito seriously. They are not engaged in independent interpretation of the law or our Constitution. They are solely focused on putting their thumb on the scale of Donald Trump’s agenda each and every time.

Welch: These bombs have been dropping on Gaza. And right now in Gaza, 92% of the people in Gaza live in a tent or under plastic shelter. We’ve destroyed it with our bombs. And that Netanyahu policy that Trump has totally aided has got to end. We cannot be sending 2,000-ton bombs over to Israel…

Welch: Kash Patel has got access to an official plane. So he goes to Nashville to see his girlfriend. And he does it because the standard that is being set by Donald Trump is: You can do what you want. It’s a real degradation of the kind of service orientation that the FBI has been so proud of.

Trahan: Between the president saying things like “let data reign” or “this is a hoax,” no one is buying that. We all lived through social media and the failure that we did not put more guardrails in place when we had the opportunity to do it, whether that’s around privacy or kids’ design.

Jayapal on McConnell: How about we have term limits on members of Congress and upper age limits on members of Congress? Why do we allow people to stay until they literally have to be carried off the floor, until they disappear with paid leave that they won’t grant for anyone else in the country?

Ossoff: Did you see this business about Don Jr.‘s wedding in the Bahamas? Where he received, apparently, a cash gift from a Russian oligarch connected to the Kremlin? This man, Kremlev, was apparently in China with Putin two days before he flew to the Bahamas for Don Jr.’s wedding…

El-Sayed on RFK JR: It goes back to the fact that they appointed a guy who takes his kids swimming in Schitt's Creek. I find it personally offensive that my dude works out in jeans. Either he is not really working out or he just has massive calluses on the inside of his legs. It is not right

Ballou: It’s possible that there was just a blanket procedure not to produce documents that related to Donald Trump. I don’t want to get ahead of our skis here, but it does seem like they have repeatedly mentioned that there was withholding based on executive privilege, which just makes no sense.

Boykin: The Republicans control the entire government. They control the white house. They control the house. They control the senate. They control six of the nine seats on the supreme court. If you're not happy with the way the country is running America, blame the Republicans.

Kaepernick says Trump tried to get him to the White House after publicly attacking him. “What was relayed to me was the outreach that came from Van Jones… it was immediately rejected. Again, this is after him going out publicly and trying to target me and my employment.“

KAEPERNICK: The part that I hope people take away in this moment is what Robert Kraft and what they’re saying by denying Macklemore is they are openly colluding. They also want people to know that if you take an action that they don’t agree with, they will come for you.
