Since taking office, Trump has halted or ended 1/3 of investigations and enforcement actions against Big Tech giants — including Meta, Tesla, and Google.
These same tech companies have spent over $1.2B to influence Trump during and since the 2024 election.
Everything is for sale.

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%.
We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

“I don’t understand why…”
I understand, actually. First, they want to break science. Science makes people’s lives better, and that’s not helpful to authoritarianism. Second, women aren’t people. It doesn’t matter if they get sick and die; they are fungible.

Of course they do. But I'm glad to see more research supporting this.
🧠 Do Animals Have Feelings?
New research suggests animals from bees to octopuses might experience emotions. This could change how we understand consciousness and animal welfare.

Maddow: I think it is a bad mistake to let Joy Reid walk out the door. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we've got two nonwhite hosts in primetime, both of our nonwhite hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend. I do not defend it.
