@jvl.bsky.social: "Having a mass of popular opposition to Trump visible this weekend is vitally important....If 100,000 people show up for Trump’s parade, but 5,000,000 people turn out across the country for No Kings rallies, who looks strong and who looks weak?" www.thebulwark.com/p/no-kings-n...

TONIGHT: @agawande.bsky.social talks to @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com on The #LastWord at 10pm ET.

The Trump White House is manufacturing a confrontation to justify its extreme overreach, and it’s up to us to stop them. #FreedomToDissent #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Despite pushback from California Democrats, the Trump administration sent the National Guard to support ICE operations. Rep. Nanette Barragán says the move is already escalating fear and tension.

Profiles in Courage

Trump invoked emergency powers more times in his first 100 days than any other modern president has in that time. Experts worry it could lead to an upending of the constitutional balance of power.

Today RFK Jr. fired every member of ACIP, the CDC committee that makes vaccine recommendations. Children will die. This is not ok. Lindsey Graham enabled this.

RFK Jr., a longtime vaccine skeptic who has trafficked in conspiracy theories, purges all 17 members of an advisory committee on immunization to the CDC as he continues to upend scientific conventions. @apoorvanyt.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/h...

JUST IN: A federal judge in New York has ruled that the Trump administraiton's rush to send federal employee data to DOGE was a "breach of law and trust" that violated the Privacy Act and cybersecurity protections. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The No Kings protest map will help you find a place to exercise your First Amendment rights this weekend. (It's also a pretty good argument against the Electoral College.) www.nokings.org

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Elizabeth Warren to Sarah Eisen: "I'm sorry -- you're throwing a giant parade and tossing confetti over regulations that, let's see what happened over the last 9 months -- Wells Fargo has been tagged for money laundering, it's been tagged for engaging in consumer fraud ... that makes no sense."

Repost if YOU are going to a No Kings Day rally on Trump’s birthday, June 14th. This is a great summary of what the events are for and why it’s important to TURN OUT! Please watch and share.

WATCH: During a hearing, GOP Sen. Josh Hawley presented a chart claiming Trump was victimized by injunctions—only to be dismantled by legal scholar (and wife of Chris Hayes) Kate Shaw.

Thank you for having this conversation today. The chair is always yours.

truck drivers are out of work — literally stuck sitting, waiting and in some cases going broke — because of Trump’s tariffs. here’s one of them. thank you @nicollewallace.bsky.social for the time to tell this story.

BBC: “🇺🇸 vetoed the UN Security Council's draft resolution calling for an "unconditional and permanent" ceasefire in Gaza — the other 14 members voted yes… it also demanded the release of all hostages + lifting of aid restrictions.” (This is the 5th time) www.bbc.com/news/article...

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

Welp. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/b...

Breaking News: A panel of federal judges blocked President Trump from imposing some tariffs, finding that he vastly overstepped his authority under federal law.

“No one voted to deport moms.” Trump supporters in MISSOURI have regrets after a beloved community member, mother of 3, was taken by Trump’s Gestapo. Sadly, they were warned this was never about gangs. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/u...

Brace yourselves for the market open tomorrow.
