Federal government needs to do its job. But let's call it out: You have one party that are obstructionists. I am damn sick and tired of this stuff. I'm sick of this. I don't want to ever see this again.

At the hospital meeting with victims of a mass shooting when I get pulled away to be briefed about another shooting. This time in Half Moon Bay. Tragedy upon tragedy.

More than 111,000 have lost power in the state.

About 34,000 people are under evacuation orders.

Storms that have now taken at least 17 lives.

There's no question in my mind that we are not prepared for a post-Title 42 world and we need to reconcile the fact that the federal government is not committed to comprehensive reform.

People are losing their rights. I can`t sit back -- you`ve got to push back. We`ve got to hold them accountable and yes, we prepare ourselves for the great reconciliation.

I mean, he`s hardwired for a different world but that world`s gone, and he`s acknowledged that very publicly on multiple occasions.

I think we`ve stressed the debate a little bit. I mean, they`re like, oh, look at over there. Hey, well, I`m not that, but now, people are lean -- I`m talking to other governors, and some of my friends, some are becoming closer friends…

Where is the Democratic Party? Where’s the party? Why aren’t we standing up more firmly, more resolutely? Why are we calling this out?

Bill Clinton said decades ago, right, when we got shellacked to one of the midterms, said, given the choice, the American people always support strong and wrong versus weak and right, and there was truth then about that, there’s truth…

It’s sick. It’s -- I mean, I’m a parent -- man, I mean, how -- how do I explain that to my -- forget the Democrat, Republican, us versus -- it’s like what? Someone did that? They would do that to kids, to other people’s kids? To human…

Ron DeSantis is arresting elected officials. He is sending SWAT team with people in their underwear at 6:00 in the morning because they registered to vote and voted.

They can’t claim to be pro-life when they’re just pro-birth. They can’t claim to embrace and celebrate freedom, where they’re denied freedom for women and girls and reproductive rights.

Joe Biden has that quality imagination. Nancy Pelosi does.

We may never see like this -- see anything like this again.

I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight or join us in California, where we still believe in freedom.

I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight or join us in California, where we still believe in freedom, freedom of speech, freedom to choose, freedom from hate, and the freedom to love.

Republican leaders, they’re banning books, making it harder to vote, restricting speech in classrooms, even criminalizing women and doctors.

I want to take this moment and sign legislation to push back against those Republican, state legislators and governors that seek to move forward with civil actions against people that wish to travel to the state of California seeking their…

Across a spectrum of issues, where is the Democratic Party? Where's the party? Why aren't we standing up more firmly, more resolutely? Why aren't we calling this out? This is a concerted, coordinated effort. And, yes, they're winning. They…

We can’t allow these guys to win. We can’t. Our kids can’t afford it. Quite literally, their lives are at stake.

If you are focused more on green naming things, than focusing on fundamentally getting to the nuts and bolts of the job that you are hired to do, that’s a problem in any time or in anyone’s experience.

Nothing surprising about it. I mean in every way shape or form, that could have happened 20 years ago for the same reasons.

We stand firm and confident as we lean into the future, moving away from a reactive mind-set and a crisis mind-set, to living with this virus.
