Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

"When Patrick Henry worried that the president might easily become a king, James Madison sought to reassure him by noting that 'the purse is in the hands of the representatives of the people.'" Let's see how many justices agree.

One of the smartest decisions the “No Kings” organizers made was not staging a counter-protest of Trump’s parade in DC. He wanted that confrontation.
Instead, millions gathered around the country while Trump’s parade fell far short of attendance goals. It made Trump look small.

Today’s “No Kings” protest was inspiring and gave me hope for our democracy and freedom. So glad Eric and I were able to take part in the 7X7 No Kings event along El Camino Real. #nokings @maddow.msnbc.com #peacefulprotest

The people Attorney General Bondi is calling “terrorists” have had no trial and no chance to defend themselves. We do not know who they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril.
