Breaking news: Donald Trump has threatened Apple with a 25% tariff on iPhones unless the company shifts production of its best-selling product to the US www.ft.com/content/8fba...

The Supreme Court in a 6-3 decision reverses a precedent set in a unanimous decision by the court in 1935 and now says the president can fire heads of independent agencies like the FTC or NLRB. Except for the Fed. Why? Because tanking the stock market is where the conservative judges draw the line

Trump keeps saying that taxes will increase by 68% if the GOP bill doesn’t pass, but that number’s far from any realistic scenario. Does anyone know how he ended up with 68%, or was it just pulled out of thin air?

The House bill doles out a laundry list of tax cuts, only partially offset by brutal cuts to Medicaid & IRA green incentives. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

The House budget is set to increase deficits by at least $3.1 trillion (14%) over 10 years – and probably much more. That’ll be another unnecessary hit to America’s economic credibility. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

The GOP is (partially) offsetting regressive tax cuts with regressive spending cuts. The result is a $10,000 income gain for Americans in the top 20% and a $800 loss for those at the bottom. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

Massively cutting Medicaid and SNAP isn’t the only way to find savings. We could just forgo tax cuts for Americans making over $500K instead. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

The House Budget employs a slew of policies to force Americans off Medicaid, with work requirements having the largest effect. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

The GOP Medicaid cuts will leave 8.6 million more Americans uninsured by 2034. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

The top holder of $TRUMP coin faced SEC charges for market manipulation, and was avoiding coming to the US for fear of arrest. Now his lawsuit is paused and he’s invited to a VIP dinner with Trump. This guy is bribing the President in plain sight. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

A 2022 study found that ¼ of unicorn companies in the US had a founder that first came to the US as an international student. Deterring world-class talent from coming to the US and building things here is a great way to kill America’s economic edge. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/22/u...

The most corrupt administration in American history by far, we are only 4 months in, and he hasn’t come close to the depths of depravity he is mining. But tune into CNN for updates on a dinner party in 2023 where Biden used the wrong fork.

Phang: It’s time for federal judges to acknowledge that they have lifetime appointments—and that should give them the courage to uphold the rule of law, but also to put some damn teeth into the court orders they’re issuing. it’s time that we start seeing action from the judiciary. Grow some balls

Planned Parenthood has always committed to providing healthcare needs. Anti-choice folks don’t care about your choice or your health. Make some noise to protect marginalized communities/groups who seek vital care for cancer screening, STI treatment & birth control. #StopTheBillionaireBailout

Republicans are proudly throwing millions of people off Medicare and making it harder to feed your kids so billionaires can have more money in their pockets. It’s despicable.

DOGe wants all-access to our information but is obstructing our right to info about them🧐 A federal district judge ordered DOGE to turn over information to a government watchdog group that filed a FOIA request for its records. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/tru...

Perfectly correct @timmiller.beky.social insight today on @TheBulwark.com: “Trump gets very engaged and excited when he’s attacking our small-L liberal allies around the world. And he enjoys—erotically—the company of Middle Eastern fascists.” podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Republicans are cutting programs that help everyday Americans so they can fund tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans – making billionaires richer while hard-working Americans lose health care and food stamps. #StopTheBillionaireBailout

Share: Be part of the growing movement. Our message to Republicans: *Hands off Medicaid. *Hands off Social Security. *Hands off our children, seniors, and veterans. *Hands off the American way of life." Call your Congress member. Tell them you're watching: (202) 224-3121. #HealthCareCutsKill

BREAKING: Following today's emergency hearing, Judge Brian Murphy orders the Trump administration to "maintain custody and control of class members currently being removed to South Sudan or to any other third country," such that he could order their return if needed.

Sen Ron Wyden (D-OR) says he has recordings of business associates of President Trump’s pick to lead the IRS, Billy Long, saying they expect to get favors from him once he is in office thehill.com/business/530...

TONIGHT: @agawande.bsky.social, former Assistant Administrator for Global Health at USAID, talks to @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com on The #LastWord at 10pm ET.

The FDA's new anti-science guidelines for COVID boosters is that the only people under 65 who qualify have preexisting conditions including being pregant/new mom. What if you're a new dad? Or need to visit/care for a vulnerable elder or a child with cancer? Or are a healthcare provider or teacher?

There's only ONE DAY LEFT to put in a public comment to the FDA to keep the COVID vaccines available (not free, just literally available at all) to the general public under age 65! We need to keep access to the vaccines because SARS-CoV-2 mutates fast, and new strains can cause awful complications.

The 'authorities' of the so-called 'DPR' have announced plans to turn the cities of the Donetsk region destroyed by the Russians into museums The territories of such cities as Avdiivka,Vuhledar,Bakhmut, etc.,are planned to be preserved Russians want to preserve evidence of their war crimes

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

The Israeli government is committing genocide—one of the greatest evils known to humankind—in Gaza. Executing unarmed non-combatants is evil. Not only are both these statements true, they’re synergistic—part of the same humanist philosophy. I condemn the Israeli government _and_ the DC assassin.

NEW: The six deportees on a grounded plane in Djibouti must be given a credible-fear interview in private, with access to counsel and an interpreter, either in US or commensurate circumstances abroad, Judge Murphy orders. DHS must update the court weekly. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

McGovern: My state of Massachusetts funds states like Indiana where the gentlelady is from. We get back less than we give. And so how dare she or anybody else vote to steal our tax money and give it to billionaires?

The current budget bill is an atrocity and out-of-touch leaders like Chuck Schumer laid the groundwork by voting for the CR. Appeasement and complicity do not work. When you bend the knee, they’ll break your leg.

McGovern: Some people are wondering why are we debating this bill at 120AM which is prime time in Guam because they are ashamed of what they are bringing to this floor. They should be

Boyle: We just verified with the congressional budget office and of 13.7 million Americans who will lose their health care because of their bill, exactly zero are undocumented immigrants

"This tax bill's enormity is being underplayed ... [It] will cost more than the 2017 tax cuts, the pandemic CARES Act, Biden's stimulus, and the Inflation Reduction Act combined," Jessica Riedl, a budget specialist at the conservative Manhattan Institute, told Yahoo Finance.

The Pope makes an appeal to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza and to bring an end to the hostilities:
