This is what dictators do.

Attempting to use the Pentagon as his personal attack dog.

This is an outright THREAT. Every Senator, every Representative, every American – regardless of party – should condemn this immediately and without qualification.

Let’s be crystal clear: the President of the United States is calling for the execution of elected officials.

He must be condemned forcefully, loudly and without excuses, before someone takes his words as permission to do the unthinkable.

Every American, regardless of party, should condemn the president's words immediately and without qualification.

He is lighting a match in a country soaked with political gasoline.

Every time Donald Trump posts things like this, he makes political violence more likely. None of us should tolerate this kind of behavior.

The President's behavior, like that of the Crown during the colonial era, is intended to suppress dissent, to punish those who challenge his authority, and thereby to chill participation in the political process by other officials and…

Republicans now own this healthcare crisis.

It’s a Hobson’s choice. Either proceed with the bill before us, or risk Donald Trump throwing America into the chaos of a shutdown.

Is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

Instead of negotiating with Democrats, Republicans would rather let air-traffic controllers go unpaid, they’d rather ground flights, and they’d rather punish travelers

Democrats are ready to clear the way to quickly pass a government funding bill that includes health care affordability.

This is a reasonable offer that re-opens the government.

All Republicans have to do is say yes
