The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.

And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.

This is not about politics. It's about people.

Let’s break it down:

With apologies, because it’s scary, because it really is scary: latest in my project of messing with stills from ICE vids. Stylizing them to sharpen the focus on the aesthetic project of fascist terror. Chicago today, aiming at a protester named Jess, for documenting him.

White House memo says furloughed workers might not get back pay Trump is using the threat of federal workforce cuts to force them to back the GOP’s clean continuing resolution.

This is illegal and Trump knows it––he's the one who signed it into law.

This admin doesn't get to exploit federal workers and steal their paychecks.

Proud to stand with my Virginia colleagues against the White House’s bogus threat to deny furloughed federal workers back pay.

The law is clear: back pay is guaranteed.

Families can’t be used as pawns in Trump & Vought’s shutdown.

AG Bondi, here’s that correction you requested.

Seriously, watch this. Descriptions won’t do it justice. There’s no technical difficulty.

The amazing pause here from Miller is him realizing he said the quiet part out loud (probably a few months early) and then freezing like a possum in the face of a coyote or something as a defensive measure.

Is Portland Burning? No. See real-time Portland cameras, PulsePoint incidents, and sourced fact checks.

Ok, this is just funny.

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

The recent ICE raid which emptied an entire apartment building was apparently at the request of Wells Fargo, which is trying to foreclose on the building.

Google excitedly tells you about the 1889 orbital flight, and that by 1908 there was a Mars research output with 30 people.

New on MSNBC: Trump's new acting U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan has recruited prosecutors from outside her office to take James Comey to trial, after being unable to find any federal prosecutors in her own office willing to pursue the charges, according to two people familiar with the selections.

The court order blocking Trump from sending National Guard into Portland is great, in that this ruling emphasizes facts.

The Trump administration has claimed vast new powers, not by changing laws per se, but by making up new definitions for words, such as "invasion," then lying that law applies.

Two people whose original claims to fame were that the other staffers at the New York Times thought they were whiny weirdos.

One felt "ostracized" because he liked Chik fil A, the other quit because she was "bullied" there.

They're the poster children for self-imposed cancel culture martyrdom.

The "insurrection" photo they're using is so old the donut shop has a sign advertising their payphone.

Shame on CNN for pushing the false impression that Trump's bullshit claims of violent insurrection have ANY validity.

As basic question from an ex-police reporter: Can some of our journalists detail the training regimen all these new federal agents receive? The lethal incompetence involving use of force and perameters of the 4A suggests they are just handed guns, masks and badges and told to go fuck people up.

It's true! When I studied economics, I was stunned by the ROI of social programs. Every dollar spent on childcare returns about $2.80 to the economy, and healthcare delivers even greater returns with broader social impact.

A universal basic income is simply smart fiscal policy. Why the reluctance?

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city.

They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.
