Well done @pb-indivisibles.bsky.social and coalition!

Even 90 year old Republicans are out to say #NoKings at West Palm Beach Meyer Amphitheater.

Fascism is here. We will peacefully PROTEST BY THE MILLIONS.

Town of Palm Beach warning to residents on #NoKingsDay! Check it out for Monday's show @maddow.msnbc.com

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social

@amnanawaz.bsky.social Why, when the head of the FDA is clearly a liar and bad for health, do you have him on? Yes, you challenged him, but he still spread his lies. I beg Debbie Eliason to make sure my $$ goes to Classical FM and not the news, because there is too much "two sidesism."

CBS reporter Scott Pelley: This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”. If you haven’t already shared this, please do.

Inside Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill”: Judicial Silencing (Sec. 80121(h)). This might be the most authoritarian section in the entire 1,100+ page bill.

This weekend, 400 far-right extremists from across Europe will gather in Italy to plan a continent-wide ethnic cleansing. Disguised as a “Remigration Summit,” the event promotes mass deportation of non-white people—an agenda rooted in white nationalist conspiracy theories. Read more:

TOMORROW at NIH, with Senator @alsobrooks.senate.gov. 1pm. Be there if you care about US science!

Perkins Coie Decision Footnote 3: “...when lawyers are apprehensive about retribution simply for filing a brief adverse to the government, there is no other choice but to do so.” Got that Skadden, Paul Weiss, et al.?

@weissmann.substack.com and @marcelias.bsky.social Watching you on @nicollewallace.bsky.social leaves me in awe, and tears. Please know that your courage and intellect matter far more than you may know and thousands are out here to support you to the end. (From a Perkins alum)

The Faces of Gun Violence exhibit at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) headquarters showed the portraits of 120 people killed in gun violence in the U.S.

Looks like I will be on 60 Minutes on Sunday. That is me at the end of the clip.👀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1ef...

Tommy Tuberville says his wife's homestead exemption established his residency in Alabama, but election records show both of them voted in Florida after that. And that's only the beginning.

@weissmann.substack.com Some of us have childhood memories of the McCarthy Era. This is vastly worse. This is the president, with his enormous power, not a mere member of the Senate. Yes, it was bad (even those who were kids at the time picked up on it.) But nothing like this.

Lee Gelernt from #ACLU will go down in American history for his moving commitment to our democracy.

@maddow.msnbc.com Courage in Palm Beach. www.facebook.com/share/p/15gm...

@maddow.msnbc.com Small but important protest. fb.watch/zkNzcUD0U2/

Nazi Germany surrendered in May 1945. For Americans, the Second World War would rage for three more months, until VJ Day in August. But for Russians and those influenced by them, "Victory Day" falls in May. Trump follows the Russian practice, not the American.

More evidence that RFK Jr. and Makary are not going to permit the FDA to approve new COVID19 vaccines for the US this fall. This is unconscionable. People will die because of this. www.cbsnews.com/news/fda-cov...

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s personal phone number can be found all over the internet — on sites ranging from Facebook to a fantasy football/sports betting site (username PeteHegseth). The phone number sweeping the internet is the same number Hegseth used for both his Signalgate…

If you are a member of the DC Bar, please watch this video and VOTE for Diane Seltzer for DC Bar president. If you are not a member, please share with others who are.

I always look forward to funerals too. Good times.

Sen. Van Hollen is right about Salvador making a big mistake about how it is "branding itself" now. I know that aware Americans have already terminated their Salvadoran gardeners who have expressed support for a Salvadoran fascist regime.

JUST IN: Deputy Assistant to the President and "Counterterrorism Czar" Sebastian Gorka says anyone advocating for due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be viewed as "aiding and abetting a terrorist" and be federally charged. (h/t Philip Germain)

Pay a fortune in condo fees for Hotwire Communications. Its "Everywhere TV" would be a joke if it weren't such a rip off. Video freezes while voice continues...until nothing streams. Customer support claims it's my Internet. Yeah, sure. Same internet that streams Zoom, movies etc.

@maddow.msnbc.com Thank you for spotlighting the brave, competent, and clearly decent NLRB whistleblower. His, and his attorney's, courage and commitment to our democracy left me with tears. BTW, you can't leave us at 100 days. A Constitutional crisis is not the time to go fishing. 😢
