Steve Schmidt on what Dems must tell Trump when they retake Congress: โ€ขYou will not keep the Qatari jet. We will legislate against its transfer to you, your foundation or your presidential library. โ€ขWe will block authorization & funding for your victory arch. โ€ขWe will appropriate no $$ to finish your ballroom. We will advance legislation to remove it & rebuild the East Wing. โ€ขWe will replant the trees, restore the public grounds, remove your ornamental vanity alterations & gilded Trump crappola. I would add to this the following : 1. We will develop and pass legislation to cancel the disastrous Citizens United decision and prohibit corporations and other organizations and any individual who is not a registered voter from contributing in any way to electoral campaigns. 2. We will prohibit lobbying by corporations, businesses, political organizations, or religious organizations. 3. We will prohibit the sale of arms or ammunition to Israel. 4. We will abolish ICE. 5. We will end the electoral college and elect the president by popular vote. 6. No person who has been convicted of any criminal offense will be eligible to run as a candidate for any federal office. 7. All Americans will be provided with the same healthcare that Congress provides for its members. 8. Members of Congress and other elected officials will receive their salaries only for the time served and their pensions will be from Social Security as provided for all citizens

Sanctions relief will continue. I think the diesel deal and the move regarding the Lindsey Graham Act are not the end of it. Unfortunately. Itโ€™s unfortunate because we all had great respect for Lindsey. He devoted his life to America. We had an excellent relationship with him. And shortly before the tragedy, Lindsey was in Ukraine. He always supported us very strongly and pushed for as much assistance to Ukraine as possible. Itโ€™s difficult without him, Iโ€™ll be honest. I want to thank both Democrats and Republicans who supported his bill. That was a major victory: this truly bipartisan support. And now, the decision to undo all of this, to block all of it, seems wrong to me. And it definitely helps only the Russians. It only fuels their satisfaction and their desire to keep killing people. This certainly does not stop the war. From answers to journalistsโ€™ questions. (1/3)

Dear Canada, As we draw closer to the 25th Anniversary of 9/11, I'd like to say - Thank you for taking in 33K travelers, including my parents, and crew members, who were stranded on 9/11 following the closure of US airspace. Some of us will never forget your kindness.

The fact that a 22-year-old young man battling cancer, who ran 5,373 kilometres across Canada to bring awareness and hope to others, became one of Canada's most celebrated and beloved figures speaks volumes about who we are as a country. ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ #RunTerryRun

Addison Rae isnโ€™t the biggest pop star in the world. But she just showed all others how to fight the Trump administrationโ€™s unauthorized use of her music ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ While artists like Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Rodrigo, and Sza have all called Trump out โ€” Addison took a different approachโ€ฆ After the official DHS account used her single โ€œDiet Pepsiโ€ in a video promoting ICE, the singer filed a copyright claim against the federal agency. Magically, within mere hours, the video was removed from DHSโ€™ posted and replaced with a message that read: "THIS MEDIA HAS BEEN DISABLED IN RESPONSE TO A REPORT BY THE COPYRIGHT OWNER." ๐ŸŽค โคต๏ธ ๐Ÿ“ธ: My Voice My Choice

To my fellow Americans: Please listen. Despite the attacks, distractions, and false narratives, Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ remains one of Americaโ€™s closest and most faithful friends. Canadians have stood with us in our darkest hoursโ€”from helping Americans escape during the Iran hostage crisis, to responding to natural disasters, to opening their homes and airports to us after 9/11. Canada is not only our neighbor. It is one of our most important trading partners, our ally, and our friend. If Americans could choose any country in the world to share our longest border with, we would choose Canada every time. That is the truthโ€”and it is time we stood up for our friends.

Things the recovery industry will not tell you: 1. The drug worked. That is why people use it. Not weakness. Not moral failure. A neurological event so complete and persuasive that any honest account of addiction has to start there. The problem is not that the drug fails. The problem is that what it does is unrepeatable, and you will burn your entire life to the ground trying to get back to a place that no longer exists. 2. Shame is not guilt. Guilt says I did something bad. Shame says I am something bad. Guilt is appropriate. Shame is a cell with no windows. Most people use the words interchangeably. That mistake is lethal. 3. You cannot shame someone who has already named the thing you are holding over them. Say it first. Say it in plain light. The weapon drops. 4. Guilt can coexist with self-respect. Shame cannot. You can hold the damage and the dignity at the same time. I know because I live there. 5. Radical honesty does not give you back who you were. It hands you the clean slate of who you always wanted to be. The mask comes off. The cartoon other people drew of you stays on the page. 6. Nobody gets clean on a winning streak. 7. You have to be almost self-delusional in your forgiveness of yourself. (Go watch Chase Hughes) 8. The greatest sin was not the chaos. It was the absence. Being unavailable to the people who needed you. 9. Sustainable recovery starts with one thing: honesty with yourself. If you love an addict and want to help, that is the only door in. 10. I am only an expert on my recovery. Nobody is an expert on anyone elseโ€™s.

If you think Iโ€™m trashing MAGA (whatever that is now) I really am sorry. I know for certain there are millions of Americans who voted for Donald Trump that love this country and love their neighbors and love their families and struggle and succeed and fail just like me and you and everyone. And I donโ€™t begrudge them their political affiliation in any way. I just abhor the hate. The meanness for the sake of being mean. No matter where itโ€™s coming from. Iโ€™m not your enemy man. Iโ€™m really not. Theyโ€™re trying to get us to fight among ourselves while they pick our pockets and piss on our legs and tell us itโ€™s raining. Iโ€™m not doing that to you and I sure as hell know youโ€™re not doing that to me. What could we possibly gain by hating each other as they walk off with all the food on the table. We can disagree with each other without hating each other. We just all need to break the algorithm man. Itโ€™s so much more fun finding a reason to love someone than it is finding a reason to hate them.

President Obama on Iran: โ€œWe pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. Thereโ€™s no dispute that it worked and we didnโ€™t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuzโ€

My speech on the Tennessee House Floor today as our state voted to eliminate Memphis's only majority Black congressional district.
Everyone needs to watch @Justinjpearson's floor speech from the TN State House. "Today, you will take the only Black-majority district from us. But I want you to know: No matter what you do, no matter how much you try to break us & make us bend & quit โ€” we will still be here."
