Sen. Kelly: “This is about a president who doesn't want anybody to say anything that he does not like. I don't think he understands the Constitution. I think he is ignorant to the Constitution and the rule of law…This isn't about me. This is about what he will do next.”

Thank you Angry! Do you think we are going to see a MAGA fissure in the next few months?

Take a moment to listen

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

What an inspiring evening listening to Michael McFaul and @maddow.msnbc.com

So excited to show up for democracy this weekend! I’m marching in Beantown; would love to hear where all me fellow resisters are marching!

I urge our nation to use this weekend's No Kings marches as a declaration of independence against the tyranny and lawlessness currently running this country.

Use your voice. ACT PEACEFULLY. Protect yourself and your community.

THERE ARE NO KINGS IN THE UNITED STATES.

Big news here: the White House has backed down from shutting down I-5 this weekend following our reporting last night.

Robert Reich From Robber Barons to Bezos: Is History Repeating Itself? | Robert Reich

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

The Pentagon is restricting press access, and the NYT raises a serious First Amendment concern. The SecDef’s response? A wave emoji. It’s a childish mockery of accountability. But dodging scrutiny with memes is how authoritarians treat a free press.

A repeat:

"Pity the nation that has to silence its writers for speaking their minds. Pity the nation that needs to jail those who ask for justice, while communal killers, mass murderers, corporate scamsters, looters, rapists, and those who prey on the poorest of the poor, roam free."

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

💯 I am a public school teacher in a solidly blue state. At least 6 teachers in my state have been laid off for social media posts re: Kirk’s death. A couple of the posts were not cool, but a couple others were benign. Bosses are telling us to explore “both sides” of any news event. Terrifying!

@ericswalwell.bsky.social on Kimmel: “That’s what it looks like in China, that’s what it looks like in Russia, that can’t be what it looks like in America”

Wake up!

This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.

Pritzker: What's at stake here is free speech. It's our constitution and our way of life. Do we really want the president intimidating people, organizations to get others fired? People ought to be standing up and speaking out.

They want to shut you up. To crush dissent. To end free speech. This is un-American.

Obama: So we have to extend to people during their period of mourning

We can also at the same time say I disagree with the idea that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a mistake


I can disagree with the suggestion that my wife or Justice Jackson does not have adequate brain processing power.

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated.

Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms.

Collective boycott.

Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

Obama: We have to recognize that on both sides there are people who are extremists 

But I will say that those extreme views were not in my White House. I wasn’t embracing them. I wasn’t empowering them. I wasn’t putting the weight of the government behind extremist views.
