        Someone needs to tell Individual 1 that the U.S. does not negotiate with terrorists, even if they sit in the Oval Office.

        Best line: The wall is a "5th century solution to a 21st century problem."

        Your introduction of Nancy Pelosi yesterday made me want to move to your district! (3rd gen Cali talking here). Thank you for all you do. Thank you for calling out the wall as a medieval solution to a partially self-imposed problem.

        The Dems do care, but caving to the bully now will make it 10X worse next time he "holds his breath until he turns blue." He will pass out soon. 💖

        They have to care more about us than caring about giving him his way.

        President Trump has repeatedly indicated that he sees his own insensitivity to human suffering as a vital source of leverage over Democrats. @EricLevitz writes https://nym.ag/2CN65KN  - This is an article worth reading, there is a lot of really great content
