Both of Marco Rubio’s parents were born in Cuba. Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971, before they became US citizens. He is a US citizen because he was born in the US under birthright citizenship. #Hypocrites

Georgia mother: My premiums increased 7 times over. It's not just crushing my dream, it has crushed my daughter's dreams. It's crushing so many other families' dreams. Their small businesses are being squeezed...I don't want other people to feel this pain that that my family is carrying right now.

James Taylor & Carole King — You’ve Got a Friend BBC In Concert · 1971 Pure comfort in song form. Written by Carole King and shared here with James Taylor, You’ve Got a Friend feels less like a performance and more like a promise. Their voices blend with quiet ease, trust, warmth, and friendship.

Investigating elected officials for speech is not law enforcement but intimidation. If governors and mayors can be investigated for criticizing federal actions, neither elected officials nor anyone else is truly free to speak. #holdfast

Phang: It’s time for federal judges to acknowledge that they have lifetime appointments—and that should give them the courage to uphold the rule of law, but also to put some damn teeth into the court orders they’re issuing. it’s time that we start seeing action from the judiciary. Grow some balls

Maddow: 88% of the country says no, no, he cannot defy a supreme court ruling. Only 9% say yes he can. And you know, it's not the same thing. But I should mention that 9% is also the proportion of Americans who told yougov this week that they have a favorable view of the black plague

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

The Sunday shows are keeping it real—Schumer gave away the game for nothing. Jen Psaki lays out what he could have done. He played this wrong on every level. And with a Social Security, Medicare, and a tax cut fight coming, do you really want @schumer.senate.gov leading the fight?!

Pritzker: The question I ask is: if you’re willing to hand the keys to Europe over to Putin, what’s next? How does the US retain its leadership in the world when he’s essentially retreating to our own borders? He’s even made enemies of the Canadians—I can’t imagine anything more telling than that.

AOC: One thing I love about Arizonans is that you all have shown that if a US Senator isn’t fighting hard enough for you, you’re not afraid to replace her with one who will.

AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.

Bravo, Williams & Connolly.

NEW: Perkins Coie has hired Williams & Connolly to fight Trump's executive order targeting Perkins. There had been concern in the legal community about whether major law firms would shy away from the fight out of fear of incurring Trump's wrath. But Williams & Connolly is considered formidable.
