NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.

I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.

Federal agent: β€œWe are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

US will stop tracking the costs of extreme weather fueled by climate change The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said it will no longer track the cost of weather disasters, including floods, heat waves, wildfires and more

Not only are they ignoring climate changeβ€”they’re trying to cover up the cost. Shutting down NOAA’s disaster tracking so we can’t see the BILLIONS it’s costing us? This ain’t solving the crisisβ€”it’s hiding it.

The white men fantasizing about the return of American manufacturing don’t actually think they or their kids will be working in the factories. This is their American individual idealism at work: they believe there will always be someone else working hard for their benefit

I am once again asking Ohio lawmakers to please just feed the children β€’ Ohio Capital Journal I am once again asking Ohio lawmakers to please just feed the children. For all that is good and decent, at long last, with all the strife in the world, would you please at least just make sure…

Editor Commentary: Every budget cycle I call to feed the children, and it gets left out by Ohio lawmakers. But I will continue sounding the call, because I hold the firm and unshakeable, but apparently insane opinion that schoolchildren shouldn’t go hungry.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced an aid package for Ukraine.

The package includes $5 billion from seized Russian assets, artillery shells, 25 LAV III infantry fighting vehicles, and 4 F-16 flight simulators.

Thank you, Canada! πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

5 things I did last week Musk
1. Successfully asked you to rehire 300 nuclear & avian flu workers you β€œaccidentally” fired
2. Pressed you to pay attention to rising household costs
3. Stood up for vets
4. Fought against your tax cuts for the rich
5. Stood with πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ instead ofπŸ‡·πŸ‡Ί

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

RFK Jr. is a danger to public health. Every Republican senator who votes yes will own the consequences.

When RFK Jr. follows anti-vax conspiracies instead of science, when he greenlights Trump's anti-abortion agenda, when he cuts healthcare for seniors β€” remember who voted yes.

Shutting down medical research β€” not just within NIH, but everywhere that’s funded by NIH β€” will have long-term effects on medicine & short-term effects on state, higher education & hospital budgets. This affects all of us, not just researchers.
