Rep. Dan Goldman to MeidasTouch's Ben Meiselas: "It should be no surprise to any of us now that Donald Trump is trying to dismantle all forms of accountability against corruption." Fact.

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

The CFPB is one of the American people’s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse. Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

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.

Our political leaders are so busy traveling to vote, running back to their constituents, processing diktat and doing bits of press that they hardly have a moment to comprehend the cataclysmic curveball of a COUP. Politics has always been behind the times, but right now we need agility and autonomy.

Trump officials made bogus claims about what Musk's DOGE team could do at Treasury, report says youtu.be/5j0lO1aJo5U?...

WELCOME TO BLACK HISTORY MONTH

To think some of us in independent media faced criticism for daring to use the ‘fascism’ word to describe what was to come? How is MAGA different to the German American Bund of 1936? White nationalism, hatred and abuse of immigrants, LGBTQ+ and women. Denial of climate change? How is this America? 🇺🇸

Yes, he is your party’s president and leader. You have supported him in the past and you support him now. He is tangibly hurting people in Maine, and you will prattle on, act concerned, and do nothing. You will own everything he does to hurt Mainers and everyone else.

Watching this on repeat how is your day going?

Kudos to whoever figured this out

On the Apprentice he could pretend to fire people and it didn’t really matter. But this is real life. Real people with real jobs, who actually work to live. This is not television you lonely, heartless, vacuous, burned orange monster.

Having thrown the government into chaos, Trump now returns to his trademark idiocy of blaming everything on “DEI,” which is his all-purpose excuse for his own rank incompetence, non-existent leadership skills and pathological indifference to the needs of the people.

Governor JB Pritzker signs order banning January 6 convicts from State Government Employment.

Schiff: I remember the first time it happened—he attacked me on Twitter.“Sleazy Adam Schiff,” you know, “corrupt this, corrupt that.” I was on the House floor, and my colleague said, “You should tweet back, ‘Mr. President, when they go low, we go high. Go fuck yourself.’”

There is absolutely zero justification to slap 25% tariffs on Canada. None whatsoever. I get how the dipshits can make their arguments about other countries with their half-assed arguments, but the Canada tariffs are madness. Complete insanity.

Trump announces massive tariffs at 1:00 today.

Trump told them to release the water. Another fucking disaster. sjvwater.org/decision-to-...

The White House has announced tariffs are coming tomorrow. Here's everything that could see a price increase. I broke it all down: open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker blocks Jan. 6 rioters from state jobs after Trump pardons. In a written directive, the Democratic Illinois governor tells his hiring office that "no one who attempts to overthrow a government should serve in government." www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

I was not shocked. bsky.app/profile/atru...

"Trump's military deportation flight to Guatemala on Monday likely cost at least $4,675 per migrant... more than five times the $853 cost of a one-way first class ticket on American Airlines from El Paso, Texas, the departure point for the flight..." www.reuters.com/world/americ...

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Our beloved Canada is under threat. The threat comes from the president of the US—a convicted felon and known predator. But the threat is also being driven by the hate algorithms of oligarchs like Elon Musk….

MeidasTouch Network is the future of media! 🦋💙

This insane stream of consciousness is from the Commander In Chief 😳 I hope it brings comfort to the victims families… 🤦🏼‍♂️
