NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.
I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.
Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

These lies are pissing me off.
This isn’t about health care for undocumented immigrants – that’s already against the law.
It’s about the fact that Republicans are intentionally skyrocketing your premiums.

The administration twisted science last week to claim that Tylenol is unsafe in pregnancy—and news also broke that the FDA is conducting a "review" of the abortion pill mifepristone. These moves are related in more ways than one and women and pregnant people will pay the price. Me in @msnbc.com:
Opinion | RFK Jr. is trying to run the same playbook on abortion pills that he just ran on Tylenol
This administration has already shown that it will ignore scientific evidence to advance its own narratives.

One of the very big reason autism diagnoses became more common in the last few decades is that doctors finally realized that women can be autistic.
Imagine that, literally doubling the population of people who could be diagnosed, increased number of diagnoses. Who would have even thought.

Lisa Monaco was a natsec aide for Obama and worked for Napolitano.
We believe these documents were modified in support of these malicious prosecutions, and we found a smoking gun for fabrication of evidence.

I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".
hey @nytimes.com: there is no counterpoint here. There are no credible legal experts who would EVER say that the US military has any right or authority to blow civilian craft out of the Caribbean and kill their crews from afar without any provocation. There is no other side to this question.

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress.
Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights.
But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.
