If you can’t call a genocide perpetrated by our tax dollars the moral abomination that it is, then at some point it’s hard for me to believe that you’re gonna fight for anything.

There is an electoral cost to backstopping genocide and apartheid.

However we might feel about the campaign we’ve just come through, I want you to understand that it pales in comparison to the cynicism, in comparison to the corporatism, in comparison to the lies that Mike Rogers and Donald Trump are going…

We’re going to have to wait a little longer to see the outcome of this race, but as I look in front of me, I already see the outcome.

We all knew that we're going to spend their money. We didn't know they were going to spend $70 million of their money. We didn't know that they were going to outspend us $11 to $1. And yet we're still standing.

We're going to have to wait a little longer to see the outcome of this race.

Whatever happens tonight, we have a responsibility to ensure that we unite, unite to make sure that Mike Rogers never sees the inside of the U.S. Senate.

Tomorrow we begin to mend fences," El-Sayed said.

Sick and tired of the establishment bought off by corporations on both sides of the political aisle.

We are on track to vastly outvote the historical numbers that we should have expected.

You’re seeing that kind of resonance here in Michigan for sure. And I’m not surprised that you’re seeing that in New York, too. Government ought to be available to set an equal playing field for everybody and to offer those basic things…

If you need $70 million to come in here and help get you elected, then the question has to be, are you actually electable on your own terms.

We’re building a coalition that believes politics should be about people, and together we’ll fight to deliver dignity, opportunity, and equity for every Michigander.

I’m deeply honored to have Rev. Sheffield’s support. His lifelong commitment to justice, faith, and service embodies the very best of Detroit.

We’re in a situation right now where the rich keep getting hyper-rich on the backs of figuring out how to monetize everyday people.

We have an opportunity to continue to build this movement. We got 13 weeks left to work.

I'd rather think of myself as a capitalist who's actually read about capitalism, in the sense that the biggest risk to capitalism was always going to be corporate consolidation and monopoly rather than government regulation.

You want a coalition of all people.

We're trying to define a viewpoint that's built on money out of politics, money in your pocket, Medicare for all.

It's always funny to me that people want to say that this state votes for moderates when it voted for Donald Trump twice.

Sometimes, when the Democratic Party talks about a big tent, we push everybody into the corner and then go talk and pander to the corner.

They always use this word around me: ‘dangerous.’ I always wonder, why would you call someone like me dangerous?

I’d be happy to have no outside spending at all on my behalf if it meant that $60 million wasn’t spent against me.

Turns out, electable candidates actually have to build movements, and the fact that she has not and is making up for it with the $60 million in character attacks that AIPAC is driving into our politics says a lot about who’s more electable…

When most people say I’m not electable, what they’re pointing at is my name and my faith in a state that elected Barack Obama twice.
