When Grace Clements walked across the stage at her university’s commencement ceremony this week, she leaped onto the school president and gave him a giant bear hug — bringing him straight to the ground.

Only one of these men has a criminal conviction—and his name isn’t Kilmar Garcia!

If you're getting rid of Prime, you can ask for a refund. You just need to talk to/chat with a human. Tell them you don’t like Bezos’ politics. They’ll immediately cancel for you & give you a pro-rated refund. Then delete your account.

The protests aren’t slowing down—they’re spreading. City to city, town to town. People are outraged, and they’re making it known.

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE. But stay peaceful—don’t give Trump any excuse for violence or martial law.

We just wanted to take a moment to thank all our new supporters! Tomorrow, there will be more of us!

Alternative Headline: “After tornados ravage the United States, Trump golfs while states count their dead”

Trump’s DOGE cut 650 NOAA employees, jeopardizing tornado forecasts.

36 people are now dead.

There are more cases of measles than there are trans athletes in America.

Guess which one Republicans in charge are focusing on?

2/19: MSNBC celebrates its NAACP Image Award and Joy Reid’s book Medgar & Myrlie.

2/22: Trump calls MSNBC a “threat to democracy” after NBCUniversal’s lawsuit settlement.

2/23: Joy Reid ( @joyannreid.bsky.social ) canceled.

When Trump sent the heat, @MSNBC.com bent the knee—AGAIN!

@joyannreid.bsky.social thank you for being you. Please take the time you need. Take care of yourself. Cry, scream, or rage when you need to. I am a supporter of yours and know you will succeed where you next land. Hugs and comfort coming your way.

Health Programs Shutter Around the World After Trump Pauses Foreign Aid Lifesaving treatment and prevention programs for tuberculosis, malaria, H.I.V. and other diseases cannot access funds to continue work.

"Shuttered HIV and TB treatment programs have been told they cannot resume work without written instruction that the waiver applies to them. Few have been able to obtain such clarification because their assigned contacts at USAID have been fired or furloughed..."

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

Here’s what Trump does:

1. Creates a crisis that hurts a lot of people
2. Frames the crisis as a good thing
3. The crisis gets really bad
4. Trump then reverses his bad decision and takes credit for ending the crisis he created
5. MAGA eats it up

Every. Single. Time.

Macy does not watch the news which is why she can sleep so soundly.

@cantwell.senate.gov care to explain? You like non-government actors having control over these systems?

Where is your fight? Where is your outrage?

Is it time for a new senator for Washington? We won’t forget your abdication of responsibility.

Doctors Whose Licenses Were Revoked, Suspended Named In Pro-RFK Jr. Letter To Senate The letter was meant to lend credibility to Kennedy’s nomination, which has faced strenuous opposition from experts due to his decades of anti-vaccine activism.

Holy f*ck, this week!!!

I am not stunned by anything this crook does.

Do not take the “buy out!” It’s fake and violates multiple federal laws.

Bravo to Sen. Alsobrooks for her question.

Agreed. No empathy at all. He is unfit to even be human at this point.

This is so wrong on all levels. This is not the America I voted for nor the America I support. I am a safe place for those needing it.

He attacked soldiers whose families are right now just mourning their loss. The Commander in Chief smearing these warriors who did incredibly dangerous work that not one person in his family has ever done. What a disgusting man.
