20,000 in ruby red Utah on their feet, in community, and ready to organize for a better world. A better world is possible.

Strong moment from AOC’s speech in Utah

AOC: That is the story that Republicans tell—not mine, but all of ours—when they say a waitress or a working person is unqualified to serve in Congress. But the truth is, many of us are far more qualified to understand what real life is actually like than any of them ever will be.

Sanders: I want to say a word about Alexandria Person in the crowd: Future president Crowd: *cheers*

Donald Trump is big mad at 60 Minutes and CBS News again. He wants the head of the FCC to take their broadcasting license. This is what fascism looks like.

Wow! The overflow for Bernie Sanders and AOC’s rally at the University of Utah campus in Salt Lake City is massive. Go Utah! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This has already gotten more legacy media stories than counties he would win in a primary. I guess they have nothing else to cover.

Sanders: We’ve got a president of the United States who— Crowd: Boooo Sanders: I agree

Warren: Whenever there’s a crisis anywhere in the world—terrible things happen—and investors, you know what they do? Investors go to the United States government treasuries, because damn, it just doesn’t get any safer than that. Except with Donald Trump as president.

Hassett: "The whole point of the trade policy is to address the national emergency that we're too dependent on foreign products in the US, especially if we were in a time of conflict. And we're doing something about that."

Tapper points out to Hassett that the administration's messaging about tariffs has been completely contradictory

HASSETT: If you look at the latest jobs report, it was way, way above even what I expected TAPPER: You know the jobs data was from before the "liberation day"

Warren: "Congress has a job right now, and that is to step up and take this authority away from Donald Trump."

Brooke Rollins blames Joe Biden for the fact that egg prices are spiking again in April 2025

BREAM: The nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget calls the budget "an absolute disgrace." The GOP is supposed to be the party of fiscal discipline. Why did you vote yes? LANKFORD: That is the wonderful DC math that's coming through on this

Shawn Fain was on MSNBC this morning promoting Ross Perot, including waving around a book Perot wrote, and explaining why he supports Trump's auto tariffs

WELKER: There is currently an exclusion for some products NAVARRO: It's not an exclusion WELKER: The White House called it an exclusion

"America is gonna take it back" -- Pete Hegseth on the Panama Canal

Pete Hegseth threatens military actions against Iran

Peter Navarro hypes a potential trade deal with North Korea (he meant South Korea)

WELKER: Consumer confidence has plummeted. Inflation fears are at the highest level since 1981 NAVARRO: But we did have the greatest rally in stock market history for many decades last week WELKER: But it's down from when the president announced his policies overall

Navarro: "Zero tariffs get the American people virtually nowhere, particularly with a country like Vietnam. It doesn't work. The big problem we have are the non-tariff barriers."

Stephen Miller: "History will record that the actions President Trump has taken in recent days were the beginning of saving the West from complete economic domination by another power."

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

"Honestly, I don't care about 2028" -- Kristen Welker insists on asking Cory Booker a series of questions about 2028 speculation as he tries to talk about Trump's assault on the rule of law

Mike Johnson: "We have to eliminate people on Medicaid who are not actually eligible to be there. Able-bodied workers for example, young men who should never be on the program at all."

BRENNAN: 90 days can be a rolling deadline is what I hear you saying GREER: I would not say that. At the president's cabinet meeting last week, he was asked about this and said, "well, we'll see"

beyond parody — the White House cites Trump’s “frequent victories in golf events” as evidence of his health

KARL: You're saying that big tariffs on things like laptops & all those iPhones built in China, they're temporarily off but they're gonna be coming right back in a month? LUTNICK: Correct. That's right. Semiconductors & pharmaceuticals will have a tariff model in order to encourage them to reshore

KARL: We are gonna see higher prices. It's not like you can open a factory tomorrow to build iPhones or make sneakers. Are we gonna become a nation of cobblers again? This is gonna mean higher prices, isn't it? LUTNICK: I don't necessarily think so
