Jon Ossoff

Ossoff: You all probably saw over the last week that the President of the United States, who sued the U.S. government for $10 billion, then settled that lawsuit with himself to try and create a nearly $2 billion slush fund for the folks who sacked the United States Capitol and attacked those Capitol Police officers and tried to prevent the peaceful transfer of power when Georgia ejected Donald Trump from the White House the first time… You all also probably saw that as he continues his project of turning the White House into his royal palace, he's demanding vast sums of money – your money, the people's money – for his ballroom. And this is just the tip of the iceberg in a pattern of corruption and abuse unprecedented in the history of the Presidency, but you can rest assured that both of my opponents would be voting for this insurrectionist slush fund and would be voting for this crooked ballroom.

Ossoff: I am running in Georgia against two Trump lackeys who, you can rest assured as they race for the President's approval, would be voting for this crooked ballroom and this insurrectionist slush fund. And in fact, every national political reporter in the country should be putting that question to these two candidates tonight. They want to be candidates for the U.S. Senate? Let's see them prove to the people of Georgia… because they're pro-war, they're pro-tariff, they're pro-cutting health care. Let's find out where they stand on the crooked ballroom and the insurrectionist slush fund.

Congratulations to @KeishaBottoms on a well-fought victory. While GOP candidates now face prolonged infighting, united Georgia Democrats enter the General Election with unprecedented momentum and determination. Keisha’s powerful campaign mobilized voters statewide, and together we are building a massive and unstoppable winning coalition to deliver decisive victories statewide up and down the ballot in November.

Ossoff: A wave is building, but nothing is guaranteed. This is still the most competitive and crucial battleground state in the United States. And so I say again, the time for worry is over, and now it's time for work.

Congress has let drug companies rip off Americans for decades. Lobbyists, campaign cash, and a system that protects industry profits. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Ossoff: Today’s small and self-serving politics has distanced us from the great national spirit that defeated fascism, that landed men on the moon, that passed civil rights laws. And yet last week, while our President flailed in the strait, the American spacecraft Artemis, with four heroes on board, returned humanity to the far side of the moon, recalling the best of American genius and strength and achievement, and sending back images that remind us not to take for granted our precious, fragile planet. The United States is still destined for greatness, but only united will we meet the challenges and seize the opportunities of our time: to guarantee great health care for every American, to unleash an affordable housing boom and save our family farms, to harness new technologies for the good of the many and not the few, to make America the world leader on human rights and return nations to the path of peaceful coexistence.

Ossoff: We were promised a Golden Age. Instead, the economy's lost 75,000 manufacturing jobs just since Trump launched his big illegal tariffs. Hiring’s at its lowest rate since 2020. Did y'all hear that? Hiring is at its lowest rate since 2020. Zero net private sector job creation for the past six months. Here in Georgia, International Paper closed its plants in Savannah and Riceboro, more than 1,000 jobs gone. SK just laid off almost 1,000 workers at their EV battery plant over in Commerce because of this administration's war on renewable energy.

Ossoff: In Georgia, we know better than anyone that the election deniers are on the march. The Fulton County raid, the executive order attacking voting, the MAGA loyalists on our State Election Board, they've made their plans very clear. But Georgians are prepared to answer with a mobilization so massive and with a defense of voting rights so fierce that no plot against the franchise can foil the will of the people.

Ossoff: "The financial entanglement, the way UAE money, Emirati money from Emirati royals has compromised this White House is astonishing. It may be one of the most significant scandals in American history. Who are the president's two chief negotiators? Kushner and Witkoff. The people doing our diplomacy are at the same time doing personal business across the region that's enriching the first family. And meanwhile my constituents in Georgia are paying $4 for gas ... "

Ossoff: No child in Georgia should be turned away from the doctor because they don't have health insurance. No child in Georgia should have to go without a checkup or be denied the hearing or dental or vision or mental health care they need to be happy and healthy and to thrive. How can we say we're doing right when children are being turned away from the doctor, when insurance companies deny Georgia kids and Georgia families care they need, when state officials turn a blind eye to the abuse and mistreatment of Georgia's foster kids, some of whom are literally trafficked while in the care of the State?

Ossoff: "How does American politics really work? It's coin operated. Money goes in, favors come out. It's been running on secret money, corporate money, billionaire money ... all of this gave rise to a depraved president who exploits this rot to empower and enrich himself"

Ossoff: How much do you guys know about Jared Kushner, Ivanka's husband? He's on the Saudi payroll for $2 billion dollars. Did you know that? And now he's leading American diplomacy in the Middle East, apparently while at the very same time asking princes and sheikhs across the Arab world to give him billions more. If you're watching this online, don't take my word for it. Look it up for yourself. Can you imagine, like a normal sitting U.S. ambassador just hitting up Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for billions of dollars? But he's a Trump, a royal, a princeling. The rules are for us, not for them.

While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions of dollars. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.

Draft-dodging Donald loves sending other people's children to war.

Ossoff: I don’t know if you saw, but JD Vance was in Georgia this week. Don’t worry—no one showed up. The stadium was empty. But JD came to UGA to attack the pope two days after Trump depicted himself as Jesus Christ. The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice, while he and his family rake in billions from foreign princes.

Ossoff: I don’t know who placed those trades, but I’ll tell you this: the SEC better find out. And if they won’t, when you elect this new majority in Congress and you give us gavels and subpoenas, we will.

Ossoff: It’s time to lock in.

Ossoff: Iran's ballistic missiles and drones are not destroyed. The regime is intact, along with its ability to throttle the global energy supply. Along with its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, which it only assembled after Donald Trump shredded President Obama's Iran deal. And for all this, the White House said they already need $200 billion. $200 billion after six weeks. That's 10 years of nationwide pre-K.
