Trump’s ongoing campaign against historical truth appears to have expanded. His administration has directed the removal of multiple signs and exhibits from national parks that reference the history of slavery.

@maddow.msnbc.com I love how you hightlight protest signs both serious and funny on your show. I’m sharing my protest graphic in hopes you’ll see it. Health (#ndph) prevented me from getting out in person today.

Just … almost, but not quite, incomprehensible.
Reprehensible in all ways.
My heart goes out to her family and everybody close who will carry this trauma always.
We will as a nation, too. But that level of personal trauma most of us can’t even imagine. And those who can? I’m so sorry.

It isn’t lost on me that the suspect in the assassination of one of the most prominent women in Minnesota politics had a target list with abortion providers and advocates. Misogyny is deadly. My heart is with the victims, their families, and everyone affected.

My health kept me from the protest I’d planned to attend, so I made a protest graphic instead.

This is so heartbreaking and makes nothing better and no one safer. It is the punitive act of an administration that values fealty over human health.
A top scientist at Harvard who has spent years unraveling the mysteries of tuberculosis woke up Tuesday morning and discovered an order from the federal government telling her to halt her research.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

I watched 12 Years A Slave yesterday for the first time. I cried and in the pit of my stomach, shame and grief wrestled.
Every time I see a story like this, I feel the same. Shame. Grief.
Also disbelief, naive as I realize that now is. How can this be happening? How do we stop it?

I was recently advised the best strategy for women during challenging conversations and meetings is to be emotionless and display flat affect, which I find incredibly frustrating because it explains how I'm punished for showing anger and frustration even when it's warranted
