WOW. The Trump admin said they will review social media and deny immigration benefits to people saying antisemitic claims. They're even trying to deport people with green cards on alleged claims of antisemitism. Anyway, here's a tweet from an Afrikaner they flew here on Monday.

Sen. Dick Durbin is asking Attorney General Bondi how she came to the conclusion that the Qatari gift of a $400 million jet to Trump would be "legally permissible." Durbin asks Bondi if she recused herself from the matter because she previously worked as a lobbyist for Qatar.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. faced questions from lawmakers in a pair of hearings Wednesday and did not directly answer whether he would vaccinate his own children against chicken pox and polio. He paused before answering, “Probably.”

Andry Romero, a young gay man, was given an asylum appointment by the U.S. Government. When he showed up to the appointment we kidnapped him and sent him to a foreign prison. I asked Secretary Noem to check if he’s alive. Her response was shameful.

Republicans’ so-called SAVE Act would disenfranchise millions of women. Choosing to marry, divorce, or change your name shouldn’t infringe on your right to vote. A women’s voting rights advocate explained it in our hearing today.

THIS IS HAPPENING. THE LARGEST MARCH IN AMERICAN HISTORY. BE PREPARED. JUNE 14th WE WILL MARCH EVERYWHERE!

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

The new Pope:

BIG NEWS – President Trump just announced that he will withdraw his nomination for Ed Martin to be U.S. Attorney for D.C. It’s the right decision. Here’s why.

The director of the FBI hasn't read the Constitution and doesn't understand due process is for everyone.

👀

There’s no Trump without an entire Republican Party on their knees and silent to the ongoing cruelty, hate, abuse, lies and lawlessness. They have abandoned the Constitution and basic human decency—for power. We will never forget these traitors who support despotism.

I didn’t want this to happen. I voted for the smart black lady.

Welcome to the dumbest administration

Please … clap?

60 Minutes could find no criminal records for 75% of the Venezuelans the U.S. sent to a notorious mega-prison in El Salvador. https://cbsn.ws/4clubLP

STEPHANOPOULOS: The president retweeted a post that said the market drop was part of a deliberate strategy. Is that the president's strategy? HASSETT: Heh ha. The bottom line is the president has been talking about tariffs for 40 years. He's allowed to have an opinion. S: So that is his strategy.

Lutnick: "The army of millions and millions of human beings screwing in little screws to make iPhones -- that kind of thing is going to come to America."

Let this be a lesson to all who hope you can pay your way out. No amount of $ is enough to satisfy the regime for good. Better to fight for the rule of law, your beliefs, your dignity.

Not only is Elon ruining the government and ruining this country, he's doing so by buying elections. On the ground here in Wisconsin, these great citizens say their votes aren't for sale! Vote Crawford #WisconsinSupremeCourt

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Joe Biden on life support would have been better than this

It seems like when you write a decision giving the President king-like powers, you shouldn't be indignant when he acts like a king.

Ask yourself: Why would anyone who wasn’t an asset of the Russian government do this? Why would any decent human being do this?

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

I joined Ali Velshi last night on MSNBC’s The Eleventh Hour to discuss the Chief Justice’s rebuke of the President. I explained that America is in a constitutional crisis when, rather than faithfully executing the laws, the President of the United States is defying the laws.

GOP representative: “I support Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency.” Town hall crowd: “BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!” Let’s keep making Republicans own their complicity in President Musk’s hostile takeover. Take action near you during this congressional recess: indivisible.org/muskorus

SCOOP: Before the IRS fired nearly 7,000 probationary employees, a senior lawyer raised the alarm that: - the terminations contained "false" information - they amounted to a "fraud" on the US judicial system Don't miss this @propublica.org exclusive: www.propublica.org/article/trum...

President Biden used to just go home on the weekends, and maga had fucking conniptions about it. trump golfs every weekend and even some weekdays to a tune of $3M taxpayer dollars per trip, and MAGAts are quiet as church rats.

So Schumer wants to avoid a government shutdown so Trump and Musk can continue to shut down our government and bypass Congress.

"the plan to shrink IRS staff by up to 50% would — very conservatively — lead to a $400 billion increase in uncollected taxes over the next decade. It could easily mean more than $2 trillion in losses..." www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

People write to ask how they can help Ukraine. The country's soldiers face renewed attacks from Russia. There is a simple way to make sure that more Ukrainian soldiers survive, and to send a message that we support them: by funding armored evacuation vehicles. snyder.substack.com/p/armored-am...

A couple of golf outings could pay for over 300 federal jobs for an entire year.

Eternal shame for the Trump sycophants who support his disgraceful, deadly betrayal of democratic Ukraine to side with Putin. The blood is on their hands.

Trump and Musk should be asked every day how many Veterans they’ve fired.
