BREAKING on MS NOW: Tulsi Gabbard just referred the whistleblower whose complaint led to the first impeachment of Trump — and the Inspector General who deemed the complaint "credible" — for possible criminal prosecution by the Trump Justice Department.

The individuals referenced here are adjudicated terrorists. They were found guilty of conspiring to use force against their own government to prevent the peaceful transfer of power. A conservative, Trump-appointed judge applied terrorism enhancements to their sentences.

Sure, but this means the entire GOP owns it. Literally, this SHOULD be incredibly easy to turn into a midterm issue. And this is why it's important to note that these people were not JUST convicted of sedition, but also some or most were adjudged as terrorists. They're terrorist sympathizers.

This week is Black Maternal Health Week — and Black women are still being ignored, dismissed, and disrespected, especially during pregnancy and childbirth. Over 80% of these deaths didn’t have to happen. This is your reminder to listen to Black women.

HPV vaccines have NOTHING to do with “parental values”, as RFK Jr.’s surrogate claims. You could have sex with a single partner—your spouse—and become infected. If your parental values include a desire for your child to die from a vaccine preventable disease, your values need an adjustment.

Absolutely vile: Trump just said on Fox that the threat to obliterate Iranian civilization was a good thing, because "it brought them to the table." We have to take this on frontally and directly. It's a lie, and the underlying idea it's premised on is even worse:
