I find it suspicious that there is no sound on MSNBC this morning, but all other stations have sound. Is anyone else noting the same thing?

"If you have the courage to speak, we are saved. If you fall silent, the country is doomed."

Scott Pelley had some strong words to share on tonight's CNN special after the telecast of "Good Night, and Good Luck." I wrote up the highlights here >>> www.cnn.com/2025/06/07/m...

Trump's Department of Justice serves three purposes:

Declare that whatever Trump wants to do is legal.
Dispense favors on Trump's political allies.
Investigate and punish Trump's political opponents.

It is a dangerous three tiered system of justice that is leading our country down a dark road.

Trump says that any American who shows “dissension” against MAGA should be “immediately ejected” from their member of Congress’ town halls.

This is fascism.

Friendly reminder. In the United States, criminals are entitled to due process. Even if you pay hush money rig an election, steal top secret documents, or incite a mob to overthrow the government; no matter how egregious your crimes, you’re entitled to due process.

This is a very big deal. Trump is systematically dismantling the protections against foreign (e.g. Russian) interference in our elections.

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved.

* very unconstitutional

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?
International tourism is worth $200 billion every year to the US economy.

Sorry, *was.
