I'm listening on a delay. Apologies if you covered already.

In MI in the 80s, kids would wear bread bags in snow boots to keep water out. Bag in boot, foot in bag. So, technically, on soles of feet.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

Trump and Musk are basically trying to deskill America:
1) kill all white-collar jobs and replace them with AI
2) kill universities
3) use tariffs to turn the U.S. into an economic island manufacturing, oil and ag hub
4) empty the cities
5) push men into manual labor & women back into the kitchen

Why do shows like @11thhourmsnbc.bsky.social have people on their show who still think we'll get to vote again where people can "register" their complaints? (A Block) People want action now. We may not survive until 2026.

We're not trying to return a sweater. We need to save the U.S.

Here's the ABA statement in full.

Reading it made me feel better. The miliion plus attorneys are being told to not comply and to resist, and it's very specific.

DOGE is a virus that’s actively and maliciously spreading through the Federal Government.

It’s a weapon to allow Elon Musk to take over the basic mechanisms of government and bring them under his power.

A constitutional crisis is unfolding now.

Here’s what’s happening & how you can fight back. 🧵

I know people latched on to this to feed a lot of conspiracy theories at the time, but after what Musk’s done in the interim I don’t think there’s a downside for Democrats to quote it to vividly dramatize how much we don’t know what Musk is up to and what he’s technologically capable of doing.

I missed this entirely:

The FAA Administrator criticized Space X’s safety record and threatened fines.

Musk demanded he resign.

He did.

On January 20th.

When Trump imposes tariffs on Colombian coffee, Colombian flowers, Colombian bananas and pineapples and avocados, on Colombian oil, it's us Americans who will pay those added costs. We're not even a week into Trump's term and he's already imposed a brand new tax on all of us.

Walmart+ has a benefit (among others) where you can use Scan & Go using their app. That you pay for similar to Amazon Prime giving you extra benefits. You don't have to be part of W+ to use self-checkouts.

I know most people are not big fans of #msnbc right now, but that doesn't mean we want to see it go away completely.

Wow, @morningjoe @joenbc and @morningmika.

I'm just now seeing that you groveled to Trump this wknd.

I gave you the benefit of the doubt. Boy, was I wrong.

You have no character, no backbone.

Shame on you. This was unnecessary to "move forward."

MAGA’s embrace of RFK Jr’s “Make America Healthy Again” is so funny because these same people CRUCIFIED Michelle Obama for daring to suggest that American kids should have access to healthy lunches in school.
