Housing prices are already sky-high. Now new homes will be even more expensive because of Trump’s tariffs on building materials. Nothing about this makes life more affordable for Arizona families. More ➡️ azcentral.com/story/money/...

Trump will consider this far worse than any security breach. Because this is borderline treason in Dear Leader’s world. Waltz is now officially in trouble.

why God, WHYYYYY 😭😩😫 #Imisshavinggrownupsincharge

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

The lives of American troops - and every American life - depends on the people in charge of our government taking their responsibilities seriously. But again and again, including with the incompetence that came to light today, they are demonstrating the opposite. My full interview here:

Senator Lisa Murkowski says her Republican colleagues are ‘afraid’ of Trump and Musk: “That’s why you’ve got everybody just like, zip lip, not saying a word because they’re afraid they’re going to be taken down. They’re going to be primaried.”

I had a consultation for my upcoming cataract surgery at the #VA today. I'm blind👨‍🦯 as a bat 🦇 after having my eyes dilated again. 😁 The VA is very thorough and the staff are fantastic. So here's a message for Elonald. Keep your greasy little fingers off Veterans Healthcare! 😠 #SupportOurVeterans

Curious what the threshold is for Tesla shareholders & BoD to act? They exhibit a high tolerance for pain & not aligned with their mission statement.

Nentanyahu have this bright idea to acquire Teslas before or after Elon’s last antisemitic tweet? How do the Israeli people feel about their government officials driving around in a car connected to someone who refutes the horrific atrocities of their people? www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

#MarcoRubio Sec. Rubio~ If you believe Mr. Khali’s behavior warrants deportation; why is Gavin McInnes; founder of “Proud Boys”, violence inciter, shit stirrer extraordinaire & sexist/racist provocateur; allowed to remain in the US? McInnes has claimed “free speech” w/depravity no matter how vile.

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security. Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?

To be clear: a tariff is a tax.

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

Trump wants to kill the Bipartisan Chips Law that has brought more than $100 billion in revenue and over 50,000 jobs to the US. Maybe he’s upset because the US is not importing Chips from China which may have been used to gather intel. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory www.reuters.com/technology/t...

Getting rid of the American workers who take care of American veterans is wrong. Veterans will not take this sitting down - we can make this the newest example of Trump being forced to back down from a bad move.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Elon sent me. (inadvertently, but still)

Great advice on helping someone who is grieving.

An easy start

Swimming in the ocean• Quiet mind & the sun shines through when your eyes are closed• waiting for the perfect wave to carry you in but it’s just not quite right•only glimpses of land in the swell•just a little more time•a few moments of peaceful bliss, because you know you’ve gone too far this time🌊

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

I'll go anywhere on behalf of a good cause - and that means engaging people across all the different platforms. Good to be connected here, @maddow.msnbc.com and @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com.

Of course the Democrats will be going to Houston to find and interview voters who were laid off , to ask them what their expectations of the new administration were and how they feel they are doing at the moment. And posting here and everywhere. Right ?

The best messaging is to state what everyone knows to be the truth in the simplest and clearest way possible. So it’s hard to imagine more effective messaging than this.
