The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

Channel that hostility into dramatic support of Ukraine

Reminder that there is going to be a huge day of nonviolent protest against Trump this Saturday, June 14 -- "No Kings".

New statement from the organizers in response to Trump federalizing National Guard (and threatening to use active duty troops) against civilians:

A statement from Kamala D. Harris: Los Angeles is my home. And like so many Americans, I am appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city. Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos. In addition to the recent ICE raids in Southern California and across our nation, it is part of the Trump Administration’s cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division. This Administration’s actions are not about public safety —they’re about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process. Protest is a powerful tool — essential in the fight for justice. And as the LAPD, Mayor, and Governor have noted, demonstrations in defense of our immigrant neighbors have been overwhelmingly peaceful. I continue to support the millions of Americans who are standing up to protect our most fundamental rights and freedoms.

My statement on what's unfolding in Los Angeles.

Every accusation is a confession.

How very ironic that GOP Governors aren’t standing up for states’ rights here. I guess that only matters if you’re denying women or transgender people access to medical care. democraticgovernors.org/updates/stat...

Let’s not forget Jake Tapper’s despicable new book.

He was "mistakenly" deported to prison camp, and it was just a "slip-up" that they then posted his wife's address. Bullshit. If these are all accidents, who's getting fired?

Illinois Gov. Pritzker acts against El Salvador over Kilmar Abrego’s detention Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has announced that the state will take punitive actions against El Salvador for holding Kilmar Abrego Garcia in custody, while a federal judge has ordered the Trump admini…

Governor JB Pritzker just announced that Illinois will be defunding investments in companies controlled by El Salvador to punish the country for holding American residents without due process.

More of this.

A cartoon by Cori6 compares two scenarios. The top panel, labeled "PROJECT 1938," shows a group of people, including adults and children, disembarking from a train with a ramp, reminiscent of historical deportations. The bottom panel, labeled "PROJECT 2025," depicts a similar group of people disembarking from an airplane using a mobile staircase, suggesting a modern deportation scenario. The cartoon is signed "Cori6" in the bottom right corner.

We’re honestly on a fast timeline to exactly this.

From the Book of MAGA:

For I was hungry, and you closed my food bank and eliminated food safety inspections;

I was thirsty, and you cut clean water regulations;

I was a stranger, and you arrested me with zero due process, flew me to El Salvador, and imprisoned me indefinitely.

There are no tariffs being put on Russia. Hmmm

This administration is plainly incompetent:

Crashing the stock market
Alienating our allies
Leaking sensitive national security intel
Mistakenly deporting people
Firing thousands, then having to hire countless back

What a sloppy, embarrassing pattern.

Statement from Elias Law Group Chair Marc Elias

My advice is if your law firm can't say this, get yourself a new law firm.

"Elias Law Group will not be deterred from fighting for democracy in court. There will be no negotiation with this White House about the clients we represent or the lawsuits we bring on their behalf."

The many triumphed over the money in Wisconsin's Supreme Court election yesterday.

Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford, to the people of Wisconsin, and to everyone fighting for a just and free America. Let's keep going.

Thou Shalt Not Let Donold Have 3 Terms For the love of god.

Planes are falling from the skies. Measles is spreading rapidly. The economy is getting hit by tariffs, trade wars and a collapsing tourism industry. He needs to be stopped. Nay…he must be stopped.

To everyone saying to “ignore” what he’s saying because “it will never happen”…you are why we lose.

A HUGE victory for my law firm, our clients DSCC and DCCC and the voters of PA!

Corrupt judges let a criminal get away with treason and run for president. Propagandists masquerading as journalists lied to enough people that the criminal won. Then the criminal sold a half share in the presidency to the world's richest man, whom no one voted for. That's what happened, folks.

Thou shalt not snatch people off the streets for their opinions.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

I wrote that to Rachel earlier today!

@maddow.msnbc.com hello! And how much do you want to bet T will turn this botched Signal “meeting” and claim that the editor of Atlantic actually hacked his way in. Then they’ll charge him w espionage and hand him over to the likes of Pam Bondi. Geez. 1984 doublespeak. I hope I’m wrong.
