I just—like, sure, being a trillionaire is cool I guess but what’s it all for if you haven’t even seen the wreckage of the titanic firsthand

RESPECT

Every politician should be doing this.

Mayor Coffman has spent every Friday night since February sleeping at Aurora, Colorado’s homeless center, serving breakfast in the morning, and learning firsthand what works and what doesn’t.

Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him.

Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent — but is it working?

no idea what the numbers were but my firsthand estimate is that there were a fuckton of people marching in NYC

ah yes, firsthand experience: a thing Mr Rogers did decades ago, and a thing I made up in my head about Ms Rachel doing
Do you think this is a compelling argument? Do you think you're winning anyone over with this?

Forcing all those generals to witness how amateurish and foolish both Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are firsthand might increase the chances of illegal orders being ignored in the future.

California Governor Gavin Newsom invites Trump to visit the state to see the crisis firsthand, emphasizing the need for leaders to focus on helping displaced Americans rather than peddling lies and disinformation.

And the truly craziest thing abt this cave is that someone seeing the invasion of Chicago firsthand, Dick Durbin, doesn't understand this.
seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

It’s hard to look down on folks when you’ve shared their space, heard their stories, and seen their humanity firsthand.

I saw firsthand while campaigning with Chedrick Greene what a committed leader and excellent public servant he is.

Congratulations on your victory tonight - I know you’ll continue serving fellow Michiganders well in the State Senate.

Are you sure about that, Mr. President?

Farmers are witnessing firsthand that between 25% and 45% of workers have stopped showing up since your raids began this month.

Don’t think your logic is adding up.

However (you rightly) feel about Arnold as a human, as a governor etc. He was raised (literally and culturally) by people who had been Nazis. He saw their impact firsthand. He knew ball.
Hey, who remembers that time that Arnold Schwarzenegger said that nazis and confederates were losers, and that if you support them, then you are a loser too?

And then half of the GOP turned against him and said "Don't call me a loser?"🤡

And so Arnold told them again, louder this time?

I remember!
"We're told some of the attendees were shocked the former Republican governor would host Raman, a democratic socialist. But after hearing her pitch for tackling L.A.'s problems, some who came in skeptical walked away impressed."

Our parks are in chaos. We’ve seen firsthand how Trump’s hiring freeze, the rescinding of hundreds of job offers, and the layoff of 5% of NPS staff have left us overwhelmed and short-handed.

It’s so heartwarming to see all these World Cup visitors learning firsthand that Trump and his ilk have been lying about our “hellhole” cities.

We all knew, but it's nice to get firsthand confirmation

As a former union member, I know firsthand how the labor movement changed Minnesota for the better.

Let’s keep building a Minnesota that lives up to the work of those who came before us.

Blanche knows firsthand that Trump has no ethical or legal boundaries. No one is stupid enough to assume otherwise, so Blanche is, clearly, lying.

Thrilled to welcome back the MLB All-Star Game to Chicago!

There's simply no place like Wrigley Field — and fans from all over the world will get to experience that firsthand.

Looking forward to seeing you all in 2027!
