BREAKING: Terry Moran is out at ABC News. "We are at the end of our agreement with Terry Moran and based on his recent post – which was a clear violation of ABC News policies – we have made the decision to not renew," an ABC spokesperson says.

NEW: AI Chatbots Are Making LA Protest Disinformation Worse Users are turning to chatbots like Grok and ChatGPT to find out what's real and what's not at the LA protests—and getting inaccurate information. read @davidgilbert.bsky.social:

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.”

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

Phang: And listen, he’s got a beefy lawsuit here. You can imagine what discovery is going to be like once this case moves forward—because it will. It will not be dismissed…

NEW: A right-wing think tank known for drafting model legislation for state GOP lawmakers, is expanding its state-level anti-voting efforts. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

Representative Al Green of Texas, a Democrat, introduced articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump this week, saying he felt the need to act now before "tanks are rolling down the street," with plans to introduce further articles at a later date. www.newsweek.com/al-green-tru...

Trump has pardoned multiple convicted fraudsters — including a former GOP Congressman and two reality TV stars.  He's also dropped or halted 100+ enforcement actions against corporate offenders — including 34 companies that funded his inauguration. Is this being "tough on crime"?

Democrats seem at a loss for a punchy message that easily conveys how horrible Trump has been. How about "So far, Donald Trump has killed 300,000 people, mostly children, just so billionaires can pay less taxes"?

There is a bird flu vaccine for vultures and condors. There is a bird flu vaccine in development for cattle (by Moderna, for one). But a bird flu vaccine for humans by Moderna has been cancelled by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS): wapo.st/43kxnVf (gift article).

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.

George Floyd was murdered by police five years ago today. The Say Their Names cemetery in Minneapolis features memorials for Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Amadou Diallo, Oscar Grant, Korryn Gaines, Freddie Gray and far too many more Black people who died at the hands of police.

Voters in Missouri passed a ballot initiative enacting paid sick leave and raising the minimum wage. In response, the Republican state legislature repealed paid sick leave and scrapped a key provision of the wage increase. Hello? Do Republicans ever listen to the will of their voters?

🚨 If the Senate bill passes a bill that includes these blatantly unconstitutional provisions, there will be no going back. The American Experiment will be over.
