We need MSNBC to know that viewers demand Joy Reid’s commentary and expertise. Add your name to the petition NOW! sign.moveon.org/petitions/br...

Received quite a few replies like "we aren't like that orange shit". I feel ya. But the best way to say that: donate to legit Ukrainian charities or to share such fundraisers if you can't donate. If your government totally sucks - it's your duty to do the right thing. #UkrainianView 1/

#Ukraine American citizens should lead and send support to Ukraine. We must not abandon our role as the leader of the free world. We need to stop Putin’s aggression.

@msnbc.com Please get Zelenskyy on MSNBC, ideally with McFaul & Vindman. Thank God Zelenskyy stood up to Trump!

„When did Trump ask the American people if we wanted to join Putin's side?“ Michael McFaul

Today, an American who gave his life for the FREEDOM OF THE WORLD was buried on Maidan The burial on Maidan is the highest honour for the Ukrainian people Ethan was not the first 🇺🇸 to give his life for Ukraine. I ask everyone to remember Ethan, not Trump, when you think of the #US #UkrainianView

Chris Meagher reacts to Trump's firing of top military official Gen. C.Q. Brown: "Hegseth is focused on fighting culture wars and scoring political points. C.Q. Brown is focused on making sure that we are deterring and ready for war, if it should come." #saturdayshow

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

Rarely has so much ignorance & ahistorical BS been crammed into a single tweet. I know JD Vance & Donald Trump are busy surrendering to a KGB butcher, abandoning the cause of freedom, & destroying the security of America & her allies, but they'd do well to spend some time actually studying history.

Trump - with his devotion to Putin, abandonment of Ukraine, and lies about history- is the antithesis of everything Ronald Reagan stood for. He is aligning America with the enemies of the very freedom that generations have fought and died to defend.

I just got out of a meeting with 17 federal workers -- a number of them Veterans -- who Trump fired without cause. These are some of their stories. Hard-working Americans deserve better than this.

Zelensky should not trust the Trump administration or sign away its natural resources. The Ukrainians who have lost their lives in defense of Europe have contributed great value to the world. The US should not steal the resources they need to rebuild. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/w...

Former secretary of the Air Force, Frank Kendall: ‘America has a rogue president and a rogue administration, and we need to acknowledge that and respond.’

"When the richest man in the world can so easily undermine our place on the global stage, it is, quite simply, a harbinger of decline: a sign of a corrupted superpower so brittle that its sources of influence can be taken apart from within." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/09/o...

"I want a government that does things FOR me, not TO me," said by Nayyera Haq on Joy Reid's show today, Feb 24, 2025. It was so simple yet so profound. (NB: This may not be her exact quote, but it's close enough. Emphasis my own.)

@joyannreid.bsky.social We love you, Joy! Yours is an essential voice. Please let us know what we can do to help you establish a new platform for it.

@maddow.msnbc.com Thanks for your comments today about losing Joy, Alex, Katie Phang, & others at MSNBC. We rely on you & your colleagues for truth & trustworthiness in this time of lies & disinformation. You didn’t mention NBC/Comcast divesting MSNBC. Looks like Trump is getting his revenge.

@joyannreid.bsky.com Please let us know where you land ASAP. We need your voice, comfort, & joy back. We need your analysis to keep us in reality. You’re brilliant, and we love you! You’re the best!

@msnbc.com Fire Patricia Cutler. She’s doing a crap job. We’re already sufficiently traumatized by Trump & his ilk, without her firing @joyannreid.bsky.com, one OF MSNBC’s best analysts and a trusted voice who brings comfort and joy.

@msnbc.com Why would let one of your best analysts, @joyannreid.bsky.com, go? I trust her as much as Rachel, Nicolle, Chris, & Lawrence. None of the other anchors are as good. If you wanted to fire a black woman, should have fired pushover @kristenwelker.bsky.com, who I’ll never watch again.

@msnbc.com I’m pissed off about your firing @joyannreid.bsky.com. Loved her show, tho wasn’t always able to watch at that time of day. Always thought it should be repeated later. She added the most value as a brilliant analyst during elections and for other highly impactful events. I want Joy back!

@joyannreid.bsky.social I’m pissed off w/MSNBC. Loved your show, tho wasn’t always able to watch at that time of day. Always thought it should be repeated later. Where you always added the most value was as an analyst during elections and for other highly impactful events. I want you back!

Here's Some Good Old Fashioned Gossip About The Dems! Six Democratic Governors, starting with, JD Pritzger of Illinois & Maura Healey of Massachusetts, criticized minority leader, Sen Chuck Schumer for not resisting Drumpf cabinet picks & terrible policies enough. Go Dems, show some fight!

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Civil disobedience is often necessary. Thank you Chris Kluwe.#civil disobedience

So basically Trump is just repeating a Russian state propaganda, saying: "Ukraine started the war". He is bowing to all Putin's demands and making secret deals with Russia for his own business interests. He betrayed US interests, his Western allies and sided with the enemy of the West #UkrainianView

Russia engaged in “bad faith” aggression in an effort to subjugate an independent country. Why do you think it will negotiate in “good faith”? And why ignore that what Trump proposes is a US-Russia negotiation that excludes Ukraine—the victim of Russia’s crime?

@tcindivisible.bsky.social Actions that are dangerous to our democracy are proceeding rapidly, but Democrats are moving too slowly, including Indivisible Tuolumne County.

@tcindivisible.bsky.social Glad to see you’re finally on Bluesky. I’m boycotting X and Facebook. How can we get in touch with you?

"It's fast, it's dirty, and so far it is effective." @rieckhoff.bsky.social joins @stephruhle.bsky.social to discuss how Trump & Musk are rapidly dismantling key parts of the federal government.

Can someone remind me who elected Elon Musk to office? Oh, that’s right. NOBODY DID.   That’s why @raskin.house.gov and I introduced the Nobody Elected Elon Musk Act, which would ensure that Elon and DOGE Special Employees are held accountable for their reckless and illegal actions.

Great work David Super! www.vox.com/politics/398...

www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc.... Kristy Greenberg har været federal prosecutor i 12 år og kender sagen. Konklusionen er klar: Hunter skulle aldrig været anklaget og blev det kun fordi han var Bidens søn. Erfaring og indsigt slår altid hurtige meninger; også mine egne hurtige meninger 😐.
