Chuck D: “This concert is not by Ed Sheeran’s promoters. Free Palestine, free Haiti, and please free a closed mind” Flavor Flav: “And fuck Donald Trump!”

Alex Gibney on Elon Musk: “What you have is an overinflated sense of how much he’s leading to the improvement of global civilization. His genius is stock pumping. He’s not a genius inventor, he never invented anything”

Mark Ruffalo endorses Prop 40 to tax billionaires in California: “Yes on 40. Millions are on their way to losing health insurance and public health clinics in Los Angeles County are already shutting down. But this November in California, we have the chance to turn this shitshow around by voting YES on Proposition 40. It’s a one time 5% tax on the wealth of California’s billionaires. They can afford it. Let’s not be suckered into 41 and 42 that are being pushed by the billionaires. They’re trying to trick you into thinking that 41 and 42 are for you when they’re absolutely against you. Vote YES on Proposition 40”

Ethan Hawke endorses James Talarico for Texas Senate: “I met James a few times. I feel 100% confident he has the most important quality that I cherish...... integrity. To my friends & family in Texas- early voting started yesterday!”

Kara Swisher on Elon backing Trump: “He’s under investigation by the Democrats and if Trump wins he gets a get out of jail free card. On top of that, he got DOGE, all this access, all these contracts, in fact it was a big payday for him. Under Kamala Harris he might be in jail and that’s not because she’s some avenging fury, it’s because there’s a lot of questions around different companies of his. He got contracts and attention and whatever hole he desperately needs to fill personally, obviously a very lonely person”

Jason Selvig: “What are your thoughts on the gas prices right now?” Trump supporter: “Uh… I believe that sometimes it’s gotta get worse before it gets better. I believe they are coming down, they will be coming down” JS: “When do you think they’ll come down?” TS: “Uhm probably soon. I’m sure, he always does something about everything” JS: “He’s been saying it since March” TS: “I believe it will be coming down, definitely” JS: “But when do you think?” TS: “I’m sure soon”

Abdul El-Sayed: “They think they can point to my name and my faith and distract us from the fact that we can’t afford our gas and our groceries and we can’t see a doctor in the richest most powerful country in the world. They think they can distract us from the idiocy of a war we have no business fighting. They think they can distract us from a tariff war that’s a vanity project on the part of Trump that we all have to pay for. They’re gonna try to distract because that’s all they have”

Mary Trump on Donald Trump: “He has literally no redeeming characteristics whatsoever. How in the world did this man who is objectively weak, insecure, unaccomplished, unintelligent, and failed allowed to accrue the kind of power, influence, and money that he has? How do we make sense of that?”

Rosie O’Donnell: “Remember November 3rd, we’re gonna do it. We’re gonna vote en masse. It’s too big to rig. Unprecedented, it’s gonna be something the likes of which we’ve never seen before as Mango Mussolini likes to say. You’re gonna get a wake up call Mango Man. We need to save his country. They know they’re doomed and the MAGA cult is shrinking day by day”

Bernie Sanders: “Greed is not good. Love and compassion is good. Empathy is good. Billionaires who have more money than they can spend in a thousand lifetimes say I need more and more and more and I don’t care what happens to ordinary people. We have got to take that on full steam ahead”

Abdul El-Sayed on Israel: “An ally that takes your money to push you into wars you shouldn’t be fighting is not an ally. If your kid has a friend who keeps bumming off their money and talks about them behind their back and gets them into fights with other friends, what would you tell your kid to do with that friend? You’d probably tell them maybe it’s not actually your friend. I think it’s time for us to realize Israel is not actually our friend”

Zohran Mamdani on AI: “We’re seeing such a reckless adoption of technology without any kid of a reckoning with the limitations of that technology. We’re seeing reports of our military killing Iranian schoolchildren and then a Pentagon investigation making it clear that an overreliance on AI was part of the killing of more than 100 schoolchildren. There is this desire to speak about it as if it’s infallible, as if it cannot be questioned, as if the only people who can regulate it are the ones who are currently developing it”

Jason Selvig: “If you could give a message to Trump what would it be?” Trump supporter: “Keep it going and make sure you bomb the heck out of Iran” JS: “A lot of people might die if that happens”

TS: “Well you know a lot of people here might die too”

JS: “Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice?” TS: “Oh, pro-life. Catholic”

This is what an effective use of our tax dollars looks like. Save people money instead of subsidizing some dude’s third yacht.

Jennifer Welch: “Elon Musk is a white nationalist who is a Nazi, who does back to back Sieg Heils, who is an untreated drug addict, spends all of his free time on X. What do the tech oligarchs and the Christian Nationalists have in common? They want control. They want to dismantle democracy. They’re too big of cowards to stand up to Vladimir Putin who kidnaps little Ukrainian kids and commits war crimes, throws oligarchs out the window, and somehow they think they’re gonna be safe in this?”

Jason Selvig: “What’s your message to Democrats?” Trump supporter: “Wake up, please. Quit drinking the Kool-Aid” JS: “Kool-Aid is like the Jim Jones where it’s like a cult leader, everyone’s kind of blindly following them. It was like a guy who’s very charismatic and everyone’s kind of following him around” TS: “Yup that’s exactly what happened and they follow him all the way to their death” JS: “And how long have you been following Donald Trump?” TS: “Since the beginning. I believe in Jesus Christ and I believe in Donald Trump”

DL Hughley: “The one thing Trump was able to do, he was able to lie to people. You believe he got his ear shot off? Okay. You believe January 6th wasn’t real? Okay. You know who you can’t lie to? Your wallet. You know what your wallet say, I don’t give a fuck what he says, we ain’t got it”

George Conway on Trump: “The decline has been constant, but I do think it’s accelerating. He’s always been a narcissistic sociopath, a psychopath. His ego is so sensitive to slights or perceived criticisms. He knows he’s not that smart, he knows he had to cheat to get ahead. If you look at the history of people like Trump, Hitler was a psychopath and a delusional one. All these megalomaniacs throughout history, they become more and more detached from reality and then they get more desperate. This is not good”

Jennifer Welch: “Putin, Netanyahu, Trump, and all of the oligarchs want power with impunity. They are sociopaths, they are psychopaths. They do not value human life. They do not value liberal democracy. Republicans tell you that Zohran Mamdani, Abdul El-Sayed, and Hasan Piker are the terrorists. No. The terrorists are Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, Vladimir Putin and all of these tech oligarchs. Those are the terrorists”

Zohran Mamdani: “I’m so proud to be here in the Bronx to announce that we are bringing 10,000 new 2-K seats to 17 new school districts across the five boroughs. That is a commitment that will bring our citywide 2-K seat total to 12,000 and establish the program in 22 out of 32 districts citywide. What that means is it will make free childcare available to every single family here in the Bronx and on Staten Island starting next fall. This truly historic announcement will save parents more than $25K per child per year”
