@msnbc.com @cnn.com @cbsnews.com @nbcnews.com @abcnetwork.bsky.social WHY are you not covering the live protests?

My mom used to say, “This makes me so mad, I’m going to write a letter.” Thank you mom, @hcrichardson.bsky.social, Sen. King, and @tz-zy.bsky.social. My last letters (a pic below) were more to soothe my rage. I am going to hone in the craft and focus on demanding action! #resist #impeach

@maddow.msnbc.com there will be MILLIONS on the streets on Saturday, not just "hundreds of thousands." There were 3.5 million on April 5.

Trump exhibits classic narcissistic abusive behavior. You don’t know what to expect day to day. You never know if he’s going to bring you flowers or knock the crap out of you. Either way, he’ll tell you it’s your fault.

"See how excited they get when we honk?" Over 2,000 protesters on April 5, 2025 in Ballwin, Missouri standing in the pouring rain, cold and mad as hell. Photo credit to Kimberly Doyle. #april5 #protest #handsoff

Do we all descend on DC and stand in the streets with our flashlights pointed upward after the sun sets? /

I keep coming back to this. "The second revolution will remain bloodless if the left allow it." - Kevin Roberts, Heritage Foundation. I think he was serious, but he doesn't understand the power of massive peaceful protests. But what is the next step? Do we just keep getting bigger and bigger? 1/

Cory Booker started a filibuster last night, "Trump, Musk, and America's Moral Moment" - it's amazing! www.youtube.com/live/v2utlMx...

So many talking points in here!

There is no end to the cruelty.

🚨Protest Alert🚨 If you’re in Missouri, specifically the St. Louis area, we have a protest April 5th. Flier updated with additional co-organizers. Please share. @rusti14.bsky.social @indivisible.org @stldems.bsky.social @lauraannstl.bsky.social @democrats.org @missouridemocrats.bsky.social

Get out there, people!

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

The Supreme Court may be the only thing that can save us. Write to them!

Trump, Musk and Republicans in Congress are gutting services, raising prices, and racing towards slashing Medicaid, Social Security, and other life-saving programs. It’s time to fight back. app.sosha.ai/s/VpiW7Eag

The Iowa GOP advanced a bill making it a misdemeanor for a healthcare provider to administer a Covid vaccine. Even when a person has requested a Covid vaccine.

Call your Senators & Reps tomorrow morning, especially the GOP ones, & demand support for Ukraine. Every GOP official needs to be asked if they are behind Trump & believe we should ally with Putin over Zelensky.

You don’t have to watch MSNBC. They are systematically firing their non-white hosts and you have every reason to turn the TV off. I will not support bootlickers. I will not support those who kiss the ring. I will not support those who bend the knee. Ever.

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

Just one little entry from a continuous stream of them on doge.gov. It’s sickening. And guess what else, when you’re in the dot gov site, every link takes you to X — even the X in the upper right corner of the window takes you to X. x.com/doge/status/...

You must act on this if you value women having the right to vote. They are dead serious. Here’s the bill: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c... The house passed it last session, but they missed a deadline so are reconsidering it now. Call your Representatives, or better yet, visit them in person!

Here is a link to the SAVE Act (HR 22), you know, the one that will disenfranchise people whose current IDs don’t match their birth certificates (c.f., married women). It didn’t make it all the way through the House during their last session, so it’s back. www.congress.gov/119/bills/hr...

Finally. A Missouri judge on Friday cleared the way for abortion procedures to begin in Kansas City and across the state, blocking clinic licensure rules that represented the last remaining obstacles to renewed access. Read more at: www.kansascity.com/news/politic...

@maddow.msnbc.com The crash is beyond horrific. I wouldn't accuse the current regime of orchestrating it, but they will take damn good advantage of it to do more evil. Be vigilant! Thanks for your great reporting.
