My great fear, of course, is that with the release of that information, which I think will be devastating for Trump, he’s going to do everything in his power to distract.

And it’s dangerous. It shouldn’t happen, but he’s got a purpose behind it.

I do not understand why people caved when we were on the verge of getting real change.

This is part of the militarization of our American cities that Donald Trump is engaging in.

I’ve been on team fight from the very beginning.

Come and get me

While New Dems always seek common ground, our coalition remains united in opposition to legislation that sacrifices the wellbeing of the constituents we’re sworn to serve.

Unfortunately, the Senate-passed bill fails to address our constituents’ top priorities, doing nothing to protect their access to healthcare, lower their costs, or curb the administration’s extreme agenda.

The nature of presidential politics is the bar gets raised constantly.

The essence of Prop. 50 is to say that if you are going to play that game, then we are going to try to counteract that abuse of the system.

No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed.

Fellow Democrats, for far too long, we've been guilty of listening to a bunch of do-nothing political types who would tell you that America's house is not on fire, even as the flames were licking their faces.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight

We don’t need to speculate about the dangers to our democracy. We don’t need to wonder about whether vulnerable people are going to be hurt, or ask ourselves how much more coarse and mean our culture can become. We’ve witnessed it…

We all have more power than we think. We just have to use it.

The Republicans, who are running Congress right now, they're not even pretending to solve – try to solve the problem. They're not even going to work.

Even though I’m the hope and change guy, there are things I’m worried about.

Let’s face it, our country and our politics are in a pretty dark place right now.
