BREAKING: In a shocking moment, Speaker Johnson says it's fine for Trump to post videos depicting him dropping feces on peaceful protesters because he's making a point, but not OK for Americans to peacefully protest him.

Unbelievable hypocrisy.

Rachel Maddow is literally rattling off every city and state that had a No Kings protest against Trump and his fascist authoritarian regime. The list is unbelievably long, including a shitload of red states. She's a half hour into her show and still going. 😂🤣🙌💪👏✊

Oh you're trying to say the cost of living is skyrocketing?

Donald Trump can't hear you over the sound of bulldozers demolishing a wing of the White House to build a new grand ballroom.

If we are against this type of unconstitutional prosecution, we must be fiercely against it regardless of defendant. Fight for what the arc of history must bend toward if we are to survive. Now on other things, we go low.

Marc Elias @marcelias.bsky.social · 1d

I treat the Bolton prosecution the same as indictments of Comey and James because they are all the product of Donald Trump's vindictive abuse of the DOJ.

Also, I don't trust a single word in any of the indictments. They were drafted by prosecutors who ultimately report to Bondi and Trump.

Jeffries: "If Donald Trump can find $20b to bail out his right-wing dictator friend in Argentina, it's extraordinary to me that Republicans are unwilling to even have a discussion about how we address the healthcare crisis that they've created."

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

If you're wondering why Donald hasn't done anything to fix the economy, bring down prices, or stop the violence by ICE in our cities . . . he is focused on bigger issues.

That @JoeBiden put out this magnanimous & gracious statement AFTER all the horrible, dishonest things Trump said about Biden today, says so much about who Joe Biden is as a person. And reminds us all once again of what an utterly horrible, small, bad, & insecure person Trump is.

I used to read the Washington Post, but I canceled my subscription after Bezos coddled Trump.

I used to watch This Week on ABC, but I stopped when ABC paid off Trump.

I used to watch 60 Minutes, but I stopped when CBS fired Colbert and hired Weiss.

It’s time to adjust our long-held media habits.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.
