@maddow.msnbc.com Love your shows. In addition to reporting on protests & town halls, can you report on what people who can’t attend these are doing? What are the elderly doing, what are moms with kids at home doing, to protest Trump administration? The rest of us want to know what we can do.

My 10th publishers note was the hardest one I have written for @contrariannews.org

It presented me with a dilemma because of my long & previously great relationship with Paul Weiss and the people who run it

TIME MAG has a piece by a reporter embedded at the El Salvadoran prison who watched as Andry, a gay asylum-seeking Venezuelan barber they said is a gang member but is not, was slapped and screamed for his mother as they held him down.

Horrific.

Well I live in Maine, have not apologized, and in fact think Donald should eat a bag of dicks. So I'm not sure who he talked to that made him think the state of Maine has apologized.

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media.

But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

@gtconway.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com It is obvious Trump is preparing for HIS FINAL COUP. Please don’t let anyone talk about midterm elections or future opportunities to vote. Trump won’t let that happen.

Very meek and accommodating of you. Instead of whining about the optics of a shutdown, frame the fucking optics. Clearly place the blame on Republicans who are doing nothing to stop unconstitutional executive overreach. Your failure here is ruinous.
