Thank you Rachael for bringing this March to my attention. As a Vietnam veteran who’s father fought as a Marine in WWll, I am deeply disappointed in what this administration is doing and how it is acting. Please keep up the good work, your efforts and that of the MSNBC community give me hope.

Thank you so much Rachel for every night showing all the protests around the country. It makes me very happy that we the people are showing up because I think that’s the only way we’re going to push back! Thank you for covering this. It really really matters. Information is power “we the people”🇺🇸
