Meanwhile in Russia: state TV host Vladimir Solovyov called for assassinations of Ursula von der Leyen, Kaja Kallas and others. Solovyov rejoiced that Trump is echoing Russian rhetoric and expressed hope he'll imprison former US Ambassador Michael McFaul.

Will be discussing this case on MSNOW (formerly MSNBC) shortly!
We need to talk about the massive loophole that the Supreme Court just carved into election law over the shadow docket—giving states a free pass to enact patently unconstitutional voting rules within nearly *one year* of an election. A stunning new limit on judicial review. slate.com/news-and-pol...

NEW: Civil rights groups may ask SCOTUS to take up their challenge to Texas’s sweeping voter-suppression law. If the justices agree to hear it, the conservative majority could use the case to make future challenges to restrictive voting laws even more difficult.

Lawsuits have been percolating over President Trump’s unprecedented attempt to undermine birthright citizenship since the beginning of his second term, but it took until Friday for the Supreme Court to announce that it will hear the case on the merits.

Just to be clear: Minnesota will continue to be guided by science and medical expertise.

While Trump and RFK wage war on vaccines and decades of science, I took executive action to safeguard vaccine access in Minnesota and prioritize the health and safety of our children.

In New Jersey this morning I listened to advocates like NJ Citizen Action and constituents to hear the challenges they are facing thanks to Trump’s health care crisis. We need every American to add their voice, stand up and call on Republicans to work with us to cut these spiking costs.

Trump and Republicans are trying to BAN states from regulating AI by slipping a ban into any bill they can.

So if WA state, or any state for that matter, wants to protect kids, protect people's privacy, or protect their jobs—they'll have their hands tied.

No way.

Millions of Americans watch @cbsnews.com—I do, too. That’s why I’m investigating whether the network’s content is now controlled by journalists or by Trump censors. His tactics are straight out of Putin’s Russia or Xi’s China.

When Trump fails to fund science and attacks the civil servants who drive discovery and innovation – our brightest minds leave for better opportunities. That means medical cures and breakthrough technologies might never be discovered.

Pete Hegseth leaked classified military intelligence about a U.S. operation before it happened to a reporter — directly putting our personnel at risk.

NatSec is a serious matter and should not be left in such incompetent and irresponsible hands.

He must resign immediately.

Being undocumented is NOT a crime.

And despite the endless stream of xenophobic and racist rhetoric from Trump and Republicans, the vast majority of immigrants — both documented and undocumented — contribute to America in more ways than we could imagine.
