It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

100 men vs. 1 gorilla? How about the working class against the oligarchy? The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%. This is the real fight we need to be talking about.

@indivisible.org The best way to remove the pandemic of oligarchy affecting the United States: Targeting trump is not the way. Micro organizing against the top Republicans backing his efforts, those that punt for him on-air. The Rubios, DeSantis etc should be the focus.

From Monday’s show: Juan Lima tells me ICE detained his parents after they lived in the U.S. for 26 years, paying taxes, and becoming leaders in their church. Now he says his dad is sleeping on the floor of an ICE detention center. youtube.com/shorts/0byRO...

Trump is joining up another phony issue. There already are super-max and maximum-security prisons. Now watch his cult and conservative media salivate and go along.

Very excited to end the week with Jason Isaacs, who talks about his starring roles in “White Lotus” and the new film, “Words of War.” We also discuss Trump cutting funding to PBS and NPR. I’ll also chat with comedian Matt Friend and veteran journalist Suzanne Malveaux. See you at 4p ET/ 1p PT!

Trump wants 6,600 Troops, 50 helicopters, and millions of your tax dollars for a birthday parade. Not to honor service, not for national defense—just to feed the ego of a wannabe dictator. Pure authoritarian cosplay. MORE: apnews.com/article/army...

I think I'm going to stop saying Trump did something and just say the Republicans did it since they're allowing him to terrorize America Eg. Today Republicans took away funding for NPR and PBS, Make them feel important.

@maddow.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com The scariest thing about most of the polls you showed this evening is the margins. They should be much higher to cause the shift needed to make any legacy changes. He's still extremely strong with his base.

Keep a watchful eye on the Supreme Court. Do not be surprised if trump gets another justice to step down before his term is over.

People need to understand that however unpopular trumps legislation and tactics are, he is just throwing a pebble in a river. The ripples will be long-lasting. He is conditioning the youth to hate and disparage democracy. #strangetimes
