MAGA influencers are demanding that Attorney General Pam Bondi arrest and prosecute a MeidasTouch host—for the “crime” of reporting the news. If they think intimidation will silence us, they’ve got another thing coming.

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?

There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

Kamala Harris: The courage of Americans who are speaking out to say, it is not ok to violate court orders. Saying it is not ok to detain and disappear American citizens or anyone without due process. The courage of judges to uphold the rule of law in the face of those who would jail them.

Former AG Eric Holder tells @maddow.msnbc.com that he's been disappointed by some legal professionals concerning their interactions with the Trump administration. "Unless we as lawyers stand up... we will lose that which defines this nation, that which makes this nation exceptional," he says.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Sanders: I’m going to be going with my good friend Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who, as everybody knows, has been an inspiration to young people all over this country. She’s a real fighter, she’s doing a great job in the House, and it’s an honor to be hitting the road with her.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Trump and Musk are going after Social Security, Medicaid, the VA, and public education.

In what universe, in what world, in what religion is it morally acceptable to cut programs for hungry children in order to reward the wealthy?

Senator Adam Schiff is spot on.

Under Donald Trump, prices for working families are already increasing, while their retirement accounts are losing value.

Do not allow Trump or his MAGA cronies to convince you otherwise at tonight's address.

Please wear a pin or a blue and yellow ribbon 🇺🇦 at SOTU to show Trump you support Ukraine, not him. Ukraine is protecting their sovereignty and democracy as well as ours and Europe’s.

There was only one person acting presidential in the Oval Office today: Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

He stood up to bullies in a Kremlin-style shakedown.

What will it take to awaken the conscience of the country after such a shameful display?

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous.

Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

Coming out of a bit of a news break whilst in L.A. and this is quite the hard re-entry: the president of Ukraine being lectured like a child by the U.S. president and vice president who want to steal his natural resources and hand chunks of his country to Putin. I have never been so embarrassed.
Omg. This is a thread. Every one should be appalled. 1/5

Trump and his American oligarchs are now openly aligning themselves with Putin and his Russian oligarchs.

This Putin-Trump alliance means abandoning our allies, supporting authoritarianism and undermining our democratic traditions.
