So Trump is rolling out the red carpet for Xi while China arms Iran against us, making gas deals with Putin while Russia attacks Ukraine and fights our allies, and gifting billions in giant bombs to Israel to bomb innocent people in Gaza and Lebanon. Are we great yet? 🤷🏼

Trump has denied disaster relief for Illinois following severe storms in August. Trump approved a request from Indiana for damage resulting from the same storms. One is a "blue state." The other is a "red state." No other president has politicized natural disasters the way that Trump has.

Reports that ICE agents are being told to “go after anybody” in California are alarming. ICE is violently terrorizing our neighborhoods. House Democrats will continue to demand oversight over this out of control agency. Accountability is coming.

One thing that Ossoff does - thank god - is COMPLETELY abandon the weird liberal wisdom that you should never say your opponent’s name. He says “Mike Collins” about 30 times in this clip, not “my opponent” or some such, and the directness make his attacks exponentially more brutal.
