MADDOW: “What is this country going to allow him to do? This is an attempted authoritarian overthrow of the 🇺🇸 Constitution and Government… imposition of a dictatorial regime. The strength of the movement against him is what will determine our fate as a country.”

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called Los Angeles a “city of criminals” and not a city of immigrants. But like its name, Los Angeles is a city of angels. We protect and look out for one another, especially the most vulnerable.

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans.

Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

According to AP, the typical pay package for S&P 500 CEOs rose to $17M last year — an increase of 9.7%.

At half of the companies surveyed, it would take the median worker 192 years to make what the CEO did in one year. 

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

I think a lot of of those folks dressing up like ICE are not even cops much less federal agents.

The way they carry themselves. The way they are dressed. Something is off.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.
Shhh. Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare again. Sort of.
They’re not branding it an Obamacare repeal this time around, but congressional Republicans are pursuing cuts to programs that are part of the 15-year-old health-care law.

Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK.

America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

PRO PUBLICA: Of the 238 men sent to an El Salvador mega prison, only 6 had prior violent crime convictions.

0 were on the gang member list.
130 had no criminal history.
32 had minor offenses.

All 238 thought they were being sent back to Venezuela. www.instagram.com/p/DKcjM7FPhz...

The Ackmans, the Musks, the Bezoses, the Zuckbergs, the Benny Johnsons, and the Charlie Kirks of the world all knew EXACTLY what they were doing.

And they did it anyway.

The destroyers of America.

Never forget their greed and deception.

Never let them distance themselves from what they caused.

Tonight we learned that it was indeed Andry, the gay man sent to El Salvador because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, who an American journalist saw sobbing as guards slapped him repeatedly and shaved his head.

He is an innocent. And Trump sent him to a torture prison.

Bring them back!

Bring Back Andry Romero!!!!
This is sickening. How the f*ck did we get to this point where our government has become American Nazis? Which of us are next?
We need to make Andry Romero a household name. There should be pressure to bring him and others back every single day.

But we need to focus the public’s attention on a single victim - a story that is repeated over and over so few can say they haven’t heard of him. That’s what MAGA does.

Andry.
