This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This is the crowd for Bernie and AOC in a state that voted for Trump by over 36% last year.

Better not call it a β€œvaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.

These gardeners, housekeepers, nannies kept Pacific Palisades going. Fire took their jobs Housekeepers, gardeners, pool cleaners and other workers have been left grappling with a loss of income and grief for longtime employers they considered family.

This is a story I've been waiting to read. It's incredibly satisfying β€” to the point of tears β€” to finally read something that reflects the reality that I personally know to be true.

🚨🚨🚨URGENT! Anyone have a direct line to Merrick Garland who can tell him to do his fucking job and overrule MAGA JUDGE CANNON and release the damning Jack Smith report on Trump so we can all know what kind of slime is slithering into the oval office?

Pls share far & wide!

Republicans on NC Supreme Court block certification of Dem justice's victory The Court’s GOP majority could be laying the groundwork to overturn the election.

Five alarm fire in North Carolina, where right-wing GOP majority on State Supreme Court just blocked certification of Democratic Justice Allison Riggs’ victory & appears to be laying groundwork to overturn the election www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I am reminded of a comment he made 20 years ago; he wanted to live long enough to eradicate the world of the guinea worm, it causes deformity, blindness, & death. There were 3.5 million cases in the world. The Carter’s provided clean water and medicationβ€˜s -today only 20 cases remain worldwide!

The Senate must pass this to protect journalists who Trump says he will jail if they don’t reveal their sources! Needless to say Republicans want to block it for the president-elect. Remarkable it passed the House. Schumer has the votes to pass it!

Nothing to worry about, only the fact that the incoming Secretary of Health and Human Service’s favorite brand of raw milk has been suspended because they found bird flu in it.

This is fine.
He’s only gonna be in charge of our nation’s health.
Everything is fine.

Heard a Fox News reporter describe the proposed tariffs on Canadian imports as being paid 100% by companies there.

Remember how Meta suspended the Threads account tracking Mark Zuckerberg's private jet? www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

The Bluesky account saw the jet landed in Palm Beach yesterday, and Zuck had a private Mar-a-Lago meeting with Trump today: www.nytimes.com/live/2024/11...

Trump reportedly plans to swiftly eject trans troops within days of inauguration Trump’s actions could eject thousands of current trans service members

News has just broke that Trump plans to eject trans people from the military within days of inauguration.

Trans servicemembers who have served 19 years will lose their pensions and healthcare.

This is obscene. They served our country, and will be kicked to the side like trash.

Are they sleeping? Tell our legislators to Vote β€œNO!” on H.R. 9495/S.4136 to protect non-profits from Trump. H.R.9495 is a Pandora’s box of destruction for any organization that crosses Trump and his MAGA agenda! UPDATE: This bill passed the House! WTH?! Call your senators! Script below! Despite its…

UPDATE! This badly-worded bill that threatens non-profits PASSED THE HOUSE! WTH?!

But we noticed that all but 2 CA Dems changed their "YES" votes to "NO," thanks to your input!

CALL YOUR SENATORS! Ask people in RED states to call theirs!

PLEASE REMEMBER:

trump's win percentage is shaping up to be the third SMALLEST in history.

He does NOT have a mandate, no matter what he says.

That means we push back against every single batshit crazy policy he tries to pass.

EVERYTHING.
Mandate my ass.

RFK Jr., anti-vaxxers, and a measles outbreak: Mehdi’s deep dive
YouTube video by MSNBC RFK Jr., anti-vaxxers, and a measles outbreak: Mehdi’s deep dive

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.

I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:
