Jack Smith Wants a Spectacle. Will Republicans Play Ball? The former special counsel says he wants any testimony he gives to be public. In an interview with The Bulwark, Rep. Jamie Raskin outlines why it matters.

"Requesting that a hearing be done out in the open is a classic bit of gamesmanship, designed to portray your critics as the ones having something to hide. And, naturally, some Republicans on the committees were irate." www.thebulwark.com/p/jack-smith...

Trump’s Empty Promise on IVF Plus: How he has come up short on prescription drug prices.

Lowering drug prices is a good idea! But even when Donald Trump hits on a good, and popular idea, he can't see it through. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-empt...

A tweet from Morgan J. Freeman states: “FACT: Venezuela is NOT a major producer of cocaine. They do not have large cocaine factories. They do not produce fentanyl either. What Venezuela does have is the world’s largest oil reserves.”

Fentanyl and coke are the new “weapons of mass destruction” lie. It’s Iraq all over again, folks. It’s always about controlling the oil.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

AOC: There was a day before his presidency, and there will be a day after — and it belongs to us.

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.

It corrupts our political system every day.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

Our CEO @skyeperryman.bsky.social joined @weeknightmsnbc.bsky.social to discuss the unlawful targeting of Letitia James, Jack Smith, and other perceived political enemies of the President.

What shutdown? Kristi Noem's new private jets. A shocking White House demolition. The Trump administration's gilded priorities are clear.

A shocking White House demolition. Kristi Noem’s new private jets. Lavish donor dinners.

Amid a government shutdown with no end in sight, the Trump administration’s gilded priorities are clear.
