@maddow.msnbc.com on Bluesky , get this guy on your show TONITE.

Everything that is happening in Los Angeles could've been avoided if folks had listened and voted for the sane and qualified black lady.

This is precisely correct.

The folks hollering about “family values” are out here tearing families apart with unlawful ICE raids, militarized police, & the weaponization of government. All while ripping away food & healthcare from working-class families. Are the family values in the room with us?

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

We never had to worry about the U.S. military being used against our own country when Biden was president. But that’s exactly what’s happened under both Trump administrations.

Goldman: Both of the issues Marjorie Taylor Greene raised—were widely publicized and thoroughly debated in committee and on the House floor. If you’re publicly admitting that you didn’t know what you were voting on and now regret it—you’re not competent or qualified to serve in Congress.

If you had important information for voters, and kept it to yourself to sell books after it was too late, you’re not a hero. You’re an asshole.

This is heartbreaking. Rest in peace, Jonathan 💔

NEW: In the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, Judge Xinis grants the plaintiff’s request to file a motion for sanctions. Motion due June 11.

This seems important from Jake Sherman

Perfect.

Minneapolis… San Diego… Folks are pushing back. This is only going to get worse.

Gosh, those were the days. My wife says she's blowing cigarette smoke in Perry Mason's face.

Phang: I fell out of my chair laughing my ass off—this idea that Donald Trump has suffered some kind of emotional distress because of the editing from 60 Minutes, which wasn’t even deceptive. We know you live in a state of emotional torture, Donald Trump—because: you’re the taco toddler.

"Well, we are all going to die." --Senator Joni Ernst That has to be the glibbest way any politician has ever told a constituent that they didn’t give a shit about them.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

Oh

VOTER: “But people will die!” (if you kick them of Medicaid) ERNST: “Well, we all are going to die.”

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

This was today… Sotally tober… NYT clearly way off base…

Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger to CBS News about pardons of Jan 6 rioters who beat police: "I put a message out to (my officers) saying, 'We all know what you did. And I think most of the American public knows what you did and respects what you www.cbsnews.com/news/capitol...

These men were building us homes. The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants. Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS. Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.

This is one of the most evil things this thing has done.

One might have thought that last November, when Missourians voted to enshrine “reproductive freedom" in the state constitution, that would have been the end of the conversation. Alas, the Missouri Supreme Court doesn’t seem to be inclined to listen. This week, the court halted abortions.

“.. these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Musk’s foray into politics accomplished.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

the chief of staff of the president of the united states claiming her phone was hacked does not seem like a really great situation tbh

I told you all a couple weeks ago that the Qataris did not generously offer the pimp plane - Trump asked for it like the corrupt grifter he is. Of course, he’ll likely never get use it.

I know I’m late to this but **fun***

In San Antonio today, plainclothes ICE officers (not masked this time) arrested, handcuffed, and zip-tied a family of five (yes, ALL of them, including the little children) coming out of their immigration court hearing — which ICE had just had dismissed. www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/a...

Dozens of nurses at Magee-Womens Hospital gathered to demand that UPMC not interfere with their attempt to form a union. Labor union SEIU Healthcare PA filed on behalf of around 1,000 registered nurses and advanced practice professionals with the National Labor Relations Board earlier this week.

Harvard president receives standing ovation during commencement.

"Let's start a club for evil, corrupt men willing to ruin innocent people's lives for our own political ambitions!" "Great!"

ICE turned back in Somerville So many Somerville community members came out that ICE simply retreated. Nonviolent resistance works when communities come together to protect kids and families.
