Breaking: MIT just became the first university to reject an agreement that would trade support for the Trump admin's higher education agenda in exchange for favorable treatment. "Fundamentally, the premise of the document is inconsistent with our core belief." www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/u...

New statement from AG James: "This is nothing more than a continuation of the president's desperate weaponization of our justice system. "I am not fearful — I am fearless."

I’ve heard plenty of “journalists” ask democrats why they’re not voting to pass the CR and end the shutdown. Why should democrats sign up to put ACA healthcare premiums beyond the reach of 20+ million Americans? Btw, many of the folks impacted are MAGA. Trump’s in charge. It’s his shutdown.

Reminder: The guy demanding credit for a ceasefire in Gaza is the same guy instigating a civil war here at home.

Raskin is the heart of Law & Order IMO. He'd be the absolute best AG in American history.

Sens. Ruben Gallego and Mark Kelly confronted Mike Johnson outside his office for delaying the swearing in of Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva. "You just don't want her to be in the Epstein discharge petition." Gallego told reporters Johnson was 'cover[ing] up for pedophiles on the Epstein list.'

Sen. Dick Durbin presses Pam Bondi on FBI personnel reportedly being asked to flag instances of Trump's name appearing in the Epstein files. Bondi says she's "not going to discuss anything about that with you." Durbin: "Eventually, you're going to have to answer for your conduct."

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse asked Pam Bondi about DOJ's decision to drop the investigation into Tom Homan. MSNBC first reported that Homan was recorded in Sept. 2024 accepting a bag with $50,000 in cash in an undercover FBI sting. Bondi refused to answer, then attacked Whitehouse.

The chances of us even having another election, or an election where they honor the true results, appear to be dwindling by the day.

And this is just a small sample of the scams and the grift!

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans. Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies. Folks, I think America First might be a scam.

Game 1. Game Won. 🗒️ bit.ly/3IpeXLv

Donald Trump's militarization of our city streets isn't about fighting crime or public safety — it's about consolidating power in his hands. What he plans to do with that, now or during the 2026 elections, should worry all of us.

Pritzker is really stepping up for this moment.

BOSTON (AP) - Federal judge finds Trump administration unconstitutionally targeted noncitizens for deportation over Gaza war protests.

Duck you, Trump.

I had a difficult choice between 2 great films vs. The Red Sox game. Thank you Red Sox!!! 🤭 The Godfather and McLovin have been watched 100 times each in our house LOL. October baseball!!!

ITA, w the exception that he's looked like gonorrhea w feet for the past 30 years.

House Oversight Democrats have released a third batch of records from the Epstein estate — including phone message logs, aircraft manifests, and copies of financial ledgers.   There are mentions of possible contact between Epstein and Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Steve Bannon. tinyurl.com/4n9h999m

One game to get into the playoffs and play October baseball. Maybe the Red Sox don't want it as much as I thought they did. ⚾

Honestly Democrats should take a big swing and refuse to fund the government until the DOJ is pulled completely out of the executive branch altogether. Make this the issue. What's there to lose? Put a spotlight on the illegality and corruption happening at DOJ for a couple of weeks at least.

As soon as Crochet is pulled, the closer (Tolle) gives up a HR. JFC.

Nobody asked, but Garret Crochet is amazing. #GoRedSox

The only thing James Comey is guilty of is handing Donald Trump his first presidency.

Jimmy Kimmel: "Most of all, I want to thank the people who don’t support my show and what I believe, but support my right to share those beliefs anyway."

Jimmy Kimmel: "The president of the United States made it very clear he wants to see me and the hundreds of people who work here fired from their job. Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he can’t take a joke."

Jimmy Kimmel: "A government threat to silence a comedian the government doesn't like is anti-American."

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

Neil Young is the radical we still need almost 60 years later. He's as great as ever. Definitely loving Farm Aid. ❤️🤍💙

Met the legendary Willie Nelson tonight at Farm Aid. For 40 years, he has championed family farmers and tirelessly advocated for our rural communities. And he’s still going strong at 92!

PAM BONDI: "Tom Homan corruptly used his office to get $50,000 in cash." DONALD TRUMP: "Amateur."

BREAKING: In an undercover operation last year, the FBI recorded Tom Homan, now the White House border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

Breaking on MSNBC: U.S. Attorney Erik Siebert, who oversees the Eastern District of Virginia, told colleagues he plans to resign. Siebert had been pressured by Trump officials to bring bogus charges against NY AG Letitia James. Siebert did not find evidence to bring those charges.

Suggestion: A strike of musicians, writers, hosts, actors, lighting, electricians--everyone, shutting down all TV studios, until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated. This is the kind of action we need, instead of sitting around just waiting to be gutted.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

The Trump administration’s cruel immigration enforcement tactics are recklessly endangering all Illinoisians, including hardworking immigrants and US citizens. This isn't the nation I know or grew up in — know your rights, stand up, and speak out.

My family escaped Ukraine from the pogroms and were lucky enough to escape to the US. They took my family in — we had nothing and offered nothing, but a desire to get ahead and be free while being safe. This is a country of immigrants, and we should be honoring that history.

Sounds like a leader IMO.🗽

👀

This is the playbook, folks. If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away. Do not be quiet in this moment.

House Democratic leadership are accusing Trump FCC Chair Brendan Carr of a "corrupt abuse of power" following ABC's suspension of Jimmy Kimmel and are calling on Carr to resign. "House Democrats will make sure the American people learn the truth ... This will not be forgotten."

We've lost an American Treasure today. A beautiful actor in a most beautiful film. RIP Robert Redford.

“It’s time for Trump to go — along with those in Congress who have chosen party loyalty over their oath to ‘solemnly affirm’ their support for the Constitution of the United States. And it’s up to us to make that happen, through the power of our votes.” - Robert Redford

if you make fun of robert redford i will call your employer

RIP dear man. Nobody will say that for dump.

JB Pritzker to CBS on Trump deploying troops: "He'd like to stop the elections in 2026 or, frankly, take control of those elections. He'll just claim that there's some problem with an election, and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control if, in fact, he's allowed to do this."
