Ossoff: "Bless his heart, Mike doesn't have too much of a mind of his own. He's been doing the president's bidding thoughtlessly for a year and a half and it's my constituents and folks across the country who are suffering."

Ossoff: "I absolutely believe that Mike Collins would have been among those standing in the schoolhouse door ... Here in Georgia, where we are so proud of our legacy as the cradle of civil rights, I'll be damned if I'm gonna let a man like Collins win this race and represent GA for the next 6 years"

Ossoff on Kimberly Guilfoyle: "Why is she spending so much time with this Greek energy lobbyist? She's partying across Europe after begging donors to bail her out financially and conducted herself in a way that seems to be deeply unethical."

Watched lots of footage of civil rights protests in GA, AL and MS in the 1960s. Maybe some of you were there. Mike Collins acts, talks and behaves like a small town sheriff with a club in 1963 after the fire hoses got done. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Troy Jackson on whether Congress should have authority over the tariffs a president can impose: "That is the job of Congress. I really don't know why anyone, Republican or Democrat, would want to be in Congress and give all their authority to a president that is a narcissist."

Q: What's a tariff that you might keep? Abdul El-Sayed: If we were serious about using tariffs, we would do it in the way that the UAW has advocated. The UAW has advocated for smart tariffs where we actually hook it to an industrial policy that makes sense. We use tariffs to protect our own market.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.
