New York’s private healthcare CEOs pocket millions in salaries while our nurses on the frontlines are overworked and underpaid.

Our communities and nurses deserve better.

I'm proud to stand with @nynurses.bsky.social as they fight for fair contracts and the dignity they deserve.

The normalization and acceptance of Islamophobia in our politics is disgusting.

Our Muslim neighbors are not Republicans’ scapegoats for antisemitic attacks and Trump’s failed policies.

We must absolutely condemn Islamophobia loudly and hold those perpetuating it accountable.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

The timing of this post and the reference to the murders being "due to the anger ... caused others through … TDS" suggests strongly that Trump believed that **one or more of his supporters** had committed the murders—and that they had committed the atrocity **justifiably**.

U.S. Rep. Delia Ramirez (D) says ICE agents covering their faces with masks aren't completely anonymous.

"They love to have their face masked up, so no one knows who they are. They think we don't know ... Cameras are a lot more advanced these days. We're gonna be able to track what they're doing."

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com when will you be returning to your show? The hosts that have stepped in for you are great but it’s simply not the same. I can only speak for myself but I am disappointed that your voice and take on Trump’s destruction of our country is silent. #WhereIsLawrence #MSNBC

Thank you @maddow.msnbc.com for the fantastic, informative and inspiring documentary about Andrew Young.

I know who Andrew Young and much of his work however, you and your team filled in many blanks of ALL Young has accomplished.

I will watch it again!
Watching Rachel Maddow's documentary on civil right's legend Andrew Young is firing me up for tomorrow's peaceful No Kings rally.

“We found over 35 cases in which the judges have specifically said what the government is providing…false information. It might be intentionally false information, including false sworn declarations time and again," says Ryan Goodman, law professor at New York University.
