@maddow.msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Trump claims wars would never have even started if it was on his watch ... so why is there a conflict between Pakistan & India? And why did Trump instead focus on the coverage of himself on @msnbc.com ?

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com @jenpsaki.msnbc.com Trump's future: Everything Americans want or need is made in the USA. Income taxes are eliminated due to income from tariffs. BUT if we no longer import because we buy American, there would be no tariff income!

@lastword.msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com According to Trump math, not only do you lose money if you buy a car from China if you simply use it and enjoy it, but somehow, you lose money if you sell it for 3 (or 100) times what you paid for it!

@lastword.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Trump has now added a new tool in the toolbox for a POTUS to reward people that break the law in a way that the POTUS likes. Have the people sue the DOJ for investigating or arresting them then order the DOJ to pay a settlement. No Congressional involvement !!!

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com The reason that there is no due process for immigrants is that it was all used up in the last 5 years on Donald Trump.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com I'll have to check if FCTRY dolls are made in China or not:

Maybe DOGE should look into this www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

@lastword.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com So when is the last time you heard anyone report on abortion rights? It was THE issue for a while. Too much terrible stuff going on. Are mass shootings still an issue?

@andreamitchell.bsky.social Ref Laken Riley. Her death was blamed on Biden's catch & release policy that wasn't illegal at the time. One of Trump's few bills he bothered to pass made it illegal. And having made it illegal, Trump's administration does the exact same thing NOW !!! Remind people!

@thebeat.msnbc.com @msnbc.com Thanks for your report on regulations. I always want to scream when someone brags about the number of regulations they got rid of as if all regulations are created equal. Trump talks about making things better while also talking deregulation. Better without regulations?

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Has anyone considered the side effect of the tariff inflation driving up Social Security payments due to the (imperfect) COL adjustment & how that will deplete the SS fund even faster?

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Funny that Trump's doctor reports on Trump's ear scar but not on vaccination scars or remnants of the bone spurs that he used to get out of being drafted.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Is there even ONE reporter who has the guts to ask Trump, "Since you weren't taken to a foreign prison to have your head shaved a put in a cell for life without due process after being accused of crimes, why do you think that should be done to others?"

@thebeat.msnbc.com @arimelber.bsky.social I want a fact check. Kevin O'Leary said that China has wiped out MILLIONS of US businesses. I just checked. We have 33 million businesses in the US so about 1 business for every 10 citizens? I guess 7% could have been ruined by China? Normal business fails?

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Not only does the argument Trump's lawyer made apply to people the government deports before the court is notified, it also means that any citizen who goes to another country has any assurance the the US government will try to get them back if detained.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Am I alone that I taste some vomit at the back of my mouth anytime I hear Trump speak? For him to rail today that the Hamas showed no kindness to their hostages when Trump himself denied starving children packets of peanut nutrition packets - DISGUSTING!

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com I wish that the media could be present when the next huge order of Maga merchandise arrives from China & Trump is handed the invoice with 54% added for the tariff. Maybe then he will believe that the importer pays the tariffs. Then "the MAGA Exception!'

@maddow.msnbc.com I think it is time to revisit the Flint, Michigan story again. It is a great example about how easy it is to turn off infrastructure & incredible costly (materially & in human life). Once the source of water was changed, the pipelines that could have been a back-up were scrapped.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com When Trump declared an economic emergency to get extra POTUS powers, the crisis didn't exist. He created one. So would revoking the emergency now that it exists be any more honest than declaring one when it didn't exist?

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Someone who watched Elon give away 2 checks for $1 million said that he walked to the side of the stage where the winner was before calling out the winner showing he knew who was going to win & who they were ... & no one yelled out in surprise --->>

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com The Ukraine War can be very easily ended! Just give Putin all he wants! Next, the Poland War will be just as easy to end. Give Putin all he wants! Then, the war w/ Germany will be even easier to end. Change names on the other 2 treaties giving Putin everything!

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Trump keeps railing that certain things he's initiating should have been done years ago. What about 8 years ago? He keeps acting like this is his 1st term and that he never had a previous chance to do anything.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com 'People are not being grateful for the success of the military strike against Houthis.' It occurs to me that such things are possible due to engineers, programmers, mechanics & accountants that are behind the weapons systems ... being indiscriminately laid off!

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Is anyone challenging the statements by the White House press secretary that Biden did nothing about the Houthis attacks on ships?

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com I just remembered how the secret service lost all their phone data about the time of Jan. 6th so the self deleting phone records is not a new thing under Trump administrations. Yet who is raising a stink about deleted Jan. 6 records (that are actually archived)?

@maddow.msnbc.com One bad question by a Dem. in the committee hearing today was about the reverse situation - wouldn't we want it classified if we got word that the Houthis rebels were about to attack! No, I would want it the opposite of classified! Warn the target! Get interceptors in the air!

@maddow.msnbc.com I just heard Trump's press secretary claim that Trump would never do anything to put US troops in harm's way. Huh? No missions? No deployments? Do people even listen to what they say anymore?

@maddow.msnbc.com Is the date when Allied troops are storming the beaches of Normandy (D-Day) classified? Not now it, isn't. But 2 days before the invasion, I can pretty reliably guess that it was.

@michaelsteele.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com My response to Pam Bondi about people trying to protect terrorists by giving those accused due process: Trump was ACCUSED being a con man, sexual predator & of stealing/sharing classified info. Should he have been taken directly to a foreign prison?

@maddow.msnbc.com @lastword.msnbc.com How was the money being paid to El Salvador to house prisoners appropriated?

@maddow.msnbc.com @msnbc.com By the time Congress decides to shut down the Economic Emergency that Trump declared to get extra powers, that emergency will actually exist.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Ref. Palestinian student taken for deportation for protests against Israel: What happened to "There are good people on both sides" ???

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com I watched videos on nearly 4 million votes for Kamala being successfully challenged during the last election.Did Trump make "rigged election" such a meme that Dems can't use it even if true? Why challenge Dems' messaging if they actually won? #GregPalast
