Thousands of transgender troops who have served our nation honorably will soon be purged from the military because of their identity. It is shameful that the Supreme Court’s majority won’t even explain why it greenlit this mass act of unconstitutional discrimination. slate.com/news-and-pol...

MAJOR BREAKING: INDIA ATTACKS PAKISTAN WITH MISSILE STRIKES IN AT LEAST 3 LOCATIONS

Weather and climate research funds are being “chainsawed” from NOAA's budget. Last I checked, Louisiana & Florida, which are maximally susceptible to Hurricanes, voted Red in the last General Election. Wondering if residents there knew in advance this would happen.

Granddaughter of a Navy vet. Daughter of a Navy vet. Mother of an Army soldier. Not one damn dime should be spent on a military parade for a draft dodger…

FFS! This is still going on?

Earlier this year, ProPublica found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% under Texas’ abortion ban. Here’s how we did our analysis. (Published Feb.)

Our simpleminded Attorney General thought it a good idea to go on TV and expressly state that she is promoting "cruel and unusual punishment" (in violation of the 8th Amendment) and denial of due process (in violation of the 5th and 14th Amendments). Can't wait until transcripts appear in courts.

Does she ever do her actual job? Is the Attorney General position just a spokesperson?

Neil deGrasse Tyson on who is the greatest scientific mind in history.

It was always performative outrage.

NEW from @joshgerstein.bsky.social: You’ve heard of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Now meet the second man erroneously deported to El Salvador in violation of a legal settlement: Daniel Lozano-Camargo. Until now, he’d only been identified by a pseudonym in court. www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

He Literally Said This Out Loud

Once again, Hillary was right— about everything!

Do not fly in and out of Newark without watching @maddow.msnbc.com's segment tonight. Air traffic controllers say it's not safe and even THEY are traumatized.

My big takeaway from tonight’s DC Bar president candidates Q&A is that Pam Bondi’s brother is exactly who you think he is, and it’s very important that DC lawyers cast our votes for @whatajlp.bsky.social by the 6/4 deadline. Search your email for “Vote Today in the D.C. Bar Election” and do it now.

A reminder that debating Stephen Miller — who is not a lawyer and is not making legal arguments, he is spouting propaganda — is a win for him.

Did you know the “weekend” and working only 8 hours per day used to be considered a radical, liberal idea? 139 years ago today, in Bay View, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 7 workers (including a 13 yo) lost their lives to advance this revolutionary idea. A 🧵

HUNT: Is Rubio still working on the Abrego Garcia case? TAMMY BRUCE: I'm not going to speak to his work in detail HUNT: You're the spokesperson for the State Department!

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack. I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

Much louder and repeat several times!

Five million Americans to get yet another surprise economic gift from the Trump presidency starting today: www.wsj.com/personal-fin...

Page One must have been crowded. So NYT puts it on Page 13. 🤡 @schooley.bsky.social

‘60 Minutes’ Thumbs Its Nose at Trump With Scathing Segment www.thedailybeast.com/60-minutes-t...

This should really be all anyone needs to know. He only cares about giant corporations and the oligarchs that fund him. Everyone else? Good luck.

JUST NOW: “This should be eye-opening for everyone. It is happening in our state.” ICE just detained up to 100 people in Nashville — we’re told at least one says MNPD participated in her detention PRESSER outside the ICE office👇🏽

I joined Ali Velshi of MSNBC this morning and Ali’s first question was about the President’s jarring answer “I don’t know” to the question “Don’t you need to uphold the Constitution of the United States as president?”

Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today: He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution He’s fine with a recession Americans can do with less Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

Warnock: I don’t know how anybody can be apathetic after what we’re going through right now. We say elections have consequences. That ain’t a slogan right about now. We’re living that reality. Here I am doing everything I can with the tools that I have but tools are not the same…

Warnock: Georgia officials said they were sorry but their hands were tied, you can’t vote the first weekend of the runoff after the holiday so I decided to untie them, I sued them. And I won… They appealed asking for emergency relief. Emergency relief from what? People voting?

Donald Trump’s abuse of emergency powers to impose antidemocratic measures—from sweeping tariffs and chaotic mass deportations to a so-called “national energy emergency”--represents a “quantum leap” from previous presidents www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/w...

We are going to be a sucker nation

The CRAZY thing nobody is talking about too is that nothing is ever gonna be cheap again. If corporations see that we’ll pay these elevated prices, they have no reason to not make those prices their baseline

And there you have it.

Jimmy Carter’s peanut farm seems rather quaint now.

As of 12:01 am ET today, most auto part imports will come with a 25% import tax. Not a single one of the 10 million cars turned out by US plants last year was built without some imported parts. The tariffs on parts will mean tens of billions of dollars in new costs to American car buyers and owners.

“See you in court.”

A special aspect of The Katie Phang Show is the platform it provided for AANHPI voices & issues. Our community is underrepresented, undervalued, & often overlooked. The poster contains some, but not all, of the 100+ AANHPI guests that have appeared on my show. And I’m just getting started!

In only a few months, we've rolled back the clock on measles eradication by more than three decades. The last time we hit this benchmark in 1990, 9 children died. It took ten more years and intensive vaccination efforts after that to declare it eliminated. That was 25 years ago.
