Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Where is the coverage of LA @nbcnews.com ??? No coverage anywhere?!?

This is heartbreaking.

Thank goodness. Let’s kick his ass to the curb with his ugly “trucks”.

"This is not a left or right moment. It is a right or wrong moment."

People need to understand that we are in an entirely new paradigm. It is now Russia the US against Ukraine and Europe. This is not a shift in US policy, it is a transformation of what kind of country the United States is in the world

Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy.

Minnesota stands firmly with our allies in Ukraine.

We just had this with our senior rescue that we’ve only had for 6th months. I put out food and also put out the litter box on the front porch. He came home by nighttime. Sending all the best luck for finding your kittykat!

NEW: I am hearing from multiple sources that Lt General Telita Crosland, Director of the Defense Health Agency, has been pushed out in an on-going purge. Official internal agency news said "retired" but I'm told relieved of duty or at least forced into retirement. www.defense.gov/About/Biogra...

Steve Bannon unloads on Elon Musk:

"Musk is a parasitic illegal immigrant. He wants to impose his freak experiments and play-act as God without any respect for the country’s history, values, or traditions.”

Let them fight.

This Is the Way to Stop Elon Musk Senate Democrats have the power to block federal contracts to Tesla and SpaceX. It’s the path to pushing Musk out of politics.

All kidding aside, the reason he is doing this is to establish some kind of culpability by @profgalloway.com and I. We never threatened these people but it is all in service of getting his supporters to think we did. It’s not a random tweet — all planned for a larger effort to silence us or worse.

Once upon a time a pseudo-hillbilly went to an Ivy League law school. Later in the story he pretended he didn't know any of the things they teach you there about the law, which had become inconvenient to his oligarchs and sordid ambitions.

A Republican congressman just introduced a bill to abolish OSHA and get rid of federal safety protections for workers.

Remind me— wasn’t it Republicans who claimed that they were the party of the working class?

The one physician in the GOP Senate who could have stopped RFK Jr. has decided party matters more than patients.

The FAA is facing a major crisis without a leader because Elon Musk pushed him out FAA chief Michael Whitaker resigned earlier this month after facing criticism from Musk.

The FAA chief fines Musk over SpaceX violations.

Musk demands his resignation and ‘radical reform’ at the FAA on X. He resigns on Jan. 20th.

The deadliest US plane crash since 2001 occurs a week later.

We are not safe with Musk in charge.

“An airport terminal with electronic signs displaying an emergency alert that reads: ‘Due to an emergency situation, Reagan National Airport is currently closed. Passengers, please see your airline representative for additional information.’ Overlaid on the image is a bold news-style graphic with the headline ‘BREAKING’ and a subheading in red that says ‘DAYS BEFORE THE CRASH.’ The text states that Trump froze the hiring of air traffic controllers and fired a key safety committee at the FAA, while Musk pressured the agency’s top administrator into resigning. The message concludes with ‘Trump and Musk are making us less safe.’ At the bottom, sources from various news outlets are cited, and the image is credited to Getty Images.”

They're willing to put Americans in danger to save a buck for billionaire tax cuts—it's unconscionable.

‘Patriotic education’: Trump orders federal push to monitor K-12 curriculum Former Education Department staff describe the move as unprecedented interference into the country’s education system.

President Donald Trump has directed the federal government to begin a campaign to monitor and influence K-12 curriculum — a move that former Education Department staff describe as unprecedented interference into the country’s education system.

When we stand together and fight back, we win. Credit Judge Loren AliKhan for blocking Trump's reckless funding freeze. And to everyone who spoke out and said No. This will save lives.

Senator Ron Wyden at RFK Jr.'s Senate confirmation hearing for HHS Secretary:

"The nominee wrote a book saying that people had been mislead into believing that measles is a deadly disease."

He's unfit.
