I am pretty sure the people have spoken. This isn't what we want. And the whole point of this weekend? A message to our current president: No Kings. You work for us, not the other way around.
Trump declares war on cities

“We must expand efforts to detain & deport Illegal Aliens in America’s largest Cities, such as LA, Chicago, & NY, where Millions of Illegal Aliens reside. These, & other Cities, are core of the Dem Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base”

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

“You’re terminated because…?”

Fired federal employees are telling their stories—no deep state, just career public servants tossed aside.

DOGE’s mass firings aren’t about efficiency—they’re gutting expertise, wrecking lives, and calling it “reform.”

Not great: “They are greatly diminishing CDC and the country's ability to respond to emerging infectious threats."

Let’s all hope that bird flu doesn’t get any worse 🤞🏽

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ?

It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI

He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone.

If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

It’s hard to fathom how devastating this will be…

At 6:00 pm, the House votes on a budget that guts Medicaid —ripping healthcare from low-income families, sick kids & seniors—all to fund tax cuts for the rich. Children will lose life-saving care so billionaires can hoard more.

These folks and thousands, more like them are not examples of government “waste” and “fraud”.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are lying to us!

It’s done.
Putin’s lifelong dream was to somehow separate the US from NATO. But how to break up a strong alliance that stood for 80 years and continued to expand? There really was only one way to do it, he figured it out a decade ago, and played the long game. Now his guy will do it.

A newfound RESPECT for @maddow.msnbc.com for keeping it real about what’s going on at MSNBC and how she really feels about it.

She didn’t have to say this, but I’m so glad she did. Take 2 minutes…

When the FBI searched Jan. 6 defendant Jeremy Brown's home, they discovered illegal grenades, a sawed-off shotgun and classified information he retained after leaving the army.

Today, DOJ says Donald Trump's pardon for J6 issues covers all of that.

From a guy who used to work there: Rachel is a remarkable person and the best TV news talent there is. If she says something is fucked up, it is. Getting rid of Joy, who dared to see through this fascism bullshit years ago and had the gall of occasionally being funny about it, is dumb.
Maddow: I think it is a bad mistake to let Joy Reid walk out the door. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we've got two nonwhite hosts in primetime, both of our nonwhite hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend. I do not defend it.

I'm looking to see if the cuts & chaos at CDC and NIH have affected any clinical trials or research for drugs for the treatment of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or other serious diseases. If you know anything, please contact me at DavidCorn.99 at Signal.

Or if you have any other good stories.

Though the loss of the ReidOut is a disturbing tragedy, I know that Ms. Joy is going to continue to bring truth to the fight and I look forward to being with her in the battles to come.

Love you my sister.
