When we impeached this president, we warned that he was a dictator in waiting.
I believe now what I believed then: this president is a threat to our democracy, our families, and to us.

- Some of my colleagues are throwing tantrums because they have to go through metal detectors. Do they know that countless children have to do the same thing to go to school?
- We cannot let the same people who inspired Wednesday’s attack tell us to “move on.”
- Republicans are now saying "we can't have a 4-4 court on election day." But that's exactly what they did when Merrick Garland was nominated. Any reporter who takes this bad-faith argument seriously should be rightly shamed.
- It’s interesting to watch my GOP colleagues who refused to wear a mask or practice social distancing, and who attended “super spreader” events, jump in line to get vaccinated. Shameless.
- If you have to cheat to win, you shouldn’t be the president.
- If you’re angry about a speech being torn in half and not angry about families being torn in half...
- All that these cabinet resignations say to me is that they don’t have the guts to hold President Trump accountable through the 25th amendment.
- Who else agrees that additional direct pandemic payments to Americans would be the smart move?
