All of you yelling at Democrats to save you from Republicans, are hilarious. Republicans control the Senate, House, the White House and the Supreme Court. Democrats are powerless because you didnāt vote for them. Now you get to pay the price. Your vote was the only safety net.

You know what I didnāt see anyone writing stories about in The Washington post or the New York Times? The story of Hillary Clinton personally paying for private planes to fly women out of Afghanistan. Only Rachel Maddow covered that story.

Bill Barr is a corruptā¦.man. For an Attorney General to cover up the crimes Trump committed in Ukraine, itās treasonous. How is Bill Barr not in prison? By not prosecuting Bill Barr and Trump, we are leaving ourselves open to them succeeding next time. And thatās scary. #Maddow.

I spoke to a friend in London early this morning. She said, The UK is watching the Trump trials very closely. Most people she works with and knows are incredulous that we are evening considering electing Trump again. She says theyāre saying America is broken. š.

@DanRather Sends chills down your spine. Their callousness is astonishing against an 82 yr old couple with 5 kids and 9 grandchildren. Madame Speaker has done nothing, but stand for the less fortunate and the voiceless in our society. The Speaker is a devout Catholic and deserves respect.

Eight years as First Lady, eight years as Senator, four years as Secretary of State, and she won the popular vote against Trump by three million votes. Hillary Clinton is what we could have had. Trumpās election will be known as the death of American exceptionalism. #Maddow.
