John F. Murphy: We've had some pretty bad general counsels over the past years but Robb was pretty bad. He forced the President's hand by not resigning as asked.

@Teamsters

Phil Glover: We believe tomorrow Biden will be rescinding the Executive Orders we talked about last year on this show.

Sarah Burris: There are a lot of messages online from people who feel they were led on, lied to. They should apologize, say they were wrong, and to them I say, "Welcome to the movement!"

@RawStory

Susan Spicka: We should all be excited about Pres. Biden's choice for Education Secretary; we'll have someone who isn't determined to take as much money as possible out of public education.

Sarah Kendzior: I was glad to see Pres. Biden reversed a lot of Trump's executive orders. It was nice for me to be able to tell my kids what the President did today, have them see him on TV & not have it be a screaming vortex of lies.

@gaslitnation

David Yankovich: I thought Pres. Biden's speech was terrific. Coming back from lost, talking about unity, that's who Biden has been for years. There were signs of bipartisanship that we're going to see.

@DavidYankovich

Propane Jane: We need to figure out what the source of that illness is--where did we go wrong? What safeguards need to be put in place so this doesn't happen again?

@docrocktex26

Matthew Chapman: It's entirely possible there will be a bunch of Republicans who will use the fact that Trump is out of office to dismiss the charges on a technicality, esp. in red states.

Mark Rickling: It's a reinforcing loop: tax cuts, more donations. More donations, more tax cuts.

Scott Paul: I think Biden will engender WAY more trust coming into office than Trump did.

Helaine Olen: Some European countries have had similar problems to ours with vaccine distribution & people refusing to get vaccinated.

@PostOpinions

Ibidun Roberts: We're trying to push Pres-Elect Biden to put exec orders in place, telling agencies to re-negotiate contracts & to bargain in good faith.

Pete Dominick: We have to treat this threat the way it should always have been treated, by the FBI. The FBI has threats from white supremacists, & the media needs to do a better job reporting it.

@PeteDominick

Gregg Hurwitz: To me, an actual free market encourages innovation & competition, but that's not what we're seeing from these large multi-national corporations.

@GreggHurwitz

Bob Ney: Fox News will say they had the right to report the news but that they didn't tell anyone to storm the Capitol.
