I had to remind Marjorie Taylor Greene and our Oversight Chairman James Comer that RFK Jr. caused a measles outbreak and that he’s an anti-vax conspiracy theorist. And Rep. Greene is the biggest anti-vaxxer in Congress.

MAGA-NOMICS is increasing taxes and wiping out retirement accounts, yet Marjorie Taylor Greene and the DOGE committee are focused on the costs of furniture and office space. Totally ridiculous.

Hopefully Trump doesn’t send the DOJ after me again for saying that we should take the fight directly to Republicans.

Garcia: People on the ground have no interest in us holding hands with Republicans while they steamroll our priorities and our rights. They want us to fight. And I think you’re seeing a lot of Democrats now taking that fight directly to Republicans, directly to Elon Musk.

Since Republicans are scared to host town halls, I’m going into their districts and hosting them myself. I’m answering questions directly from their constituents. Where is Young Kim?

Garcia: Nancy Mace is trying to censure me, Donald Trump is trying to arrest me, Elon Musk has promised us a primary in the next election. If this is my enemy list, then we are probably doing something right

A lot of applause at the Garcia Town Hall after he says: We have to stand up in this moment against that type of tyranny and those types of attacks.

Garcia: Fortunately there's a young talented group of people that are sprouting up across this country that are building these new YouTube sites. Some of you might know MeidasTouch.
