I really hope @joyannreid.bsky.social starts a podcast or independent show. I’d gladly support.

Maddow: I think it is a bad mistake to let Joy Reid walk out the door. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we've got two nonwhite hosts in primetime, both of our nonwhite hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend. I do not defend it.

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is on its face a violation the equal protection of the laws.

For all the shit we talked about freedom for the last 80 years it’s wild to see us just give it away to a South African.

Either conservatives are clutching their racist pearls that a talented black man headlined the Super bowl or they think it was tolerable because they saw the American flag and totally didn't understand the imagery. Lol. They all suck.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

If you don't think America is corrupt, Pam Bondi, the Florida Attorney General who took a bribe, was sworn in as the US Attorney General by Clarence Thomas, a SCOTUS Justice who routinely takes bribes.

The dictator n chief signed an executive order not placing the blame on him for yesterday’s tragedy. You can’t sign away your failures. Don’t let him.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

The Trump press conference today was a total disaster. The worst president in American history. And our dumbass country elected him twice.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Want a great slogan for midterms? "If you FAFO and are struggling because of Trump policies, we understand. The Dems are here for you. Tell us how we can help you " You get the point. FAFO will be the theme. Be the solution.

It was never about cheap eggs or DEI. It’s about white supremacy and getting rid anything that’s not white.

🚨 Today Target said it will end its three-year DEI goals, stop reports to external diversity-focused groups like the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index and end a program focused on carrying more products from Black- or minority-owned businesses. You guys know what to do?!

ICE can raid elementary schools but we can't figure out how to keep elementary schools from mass shootings. Pathetic.

CNN reports that the January 6 criminals have been told they are invited to attend inaugural balls tonight. They are going to be released from the D.C. jail momentarily. All are insurrectionists. We are not a democracy anymore, folks. We do not have rule of law.

Today went as I thought it would but it still hurts. We are on the precipice of oligarchy and dictatorship and it feels like we are barreling towards a violent civil war.

When talking about "free" healthcare in Canada some people will say "it aint free it comes from taxes". I would rather pay into a federal system that can't deny me when they feel like it than pay for private healthcare every month.

Dear Joe, I know it feels really wrong to order your AG to release a Special Counsel report because that’s been a bad thing to do for so long. But the Supreme Court says it’s okay now. It’s legal. It’s an official act. So go ahead, Mr. President. It’s normal now. ~ Everyone
