“Why didn’t the media report” usually turns out to be “why didn’t I read/watch.” People have lives and the algorithms blind us, but still, have less certainty in that critique!

@lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social shares an important lesson on the value of listening #KINDFund youtu.be/hIWZ7u1OZR4?...

Harlingen, Texas myrgv.com/local-news/2...

All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house. This is where America is now

And now this horseshit…… #FUCKRFKjr www.yahoo.com/news/article...

“There was a scary period earlier this year where it looked like Trump was going to succeed in consolidating power in this country. And I think the thing that has worked is mass, peaceful, organized people power.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social

@lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social: ‘Immoral’ is Donald Trump’s brand, and his chief of staff just proved it www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn6B...

In America, every immigrant's journey is different but they all conclude the same way: with a citizenship ceremony & an oath of allegiance. But in Donald Trump's America - and amid his chaotic and brutal immigration crackdown - even that well-established legal framework is under attack #Velshi

Alligator Alcatraz: How Tyranny Starts—With “Those People” open.substack.com/pub/thomhart...

ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

Ossoff: "She got her new insurance quote & it's $700 more per month than what she's paying now. She's diabetic. She had surgery a few months ago for something else. She told me she cried again bc she realized she's gonna have to cancel her insurance. She believes she might die bc of a policy choice"

Jasmine Crockett: “Democrats that believe the only way that you can win is by being soft & sounding like a Republican — That is not true — What people are looking for are people that are tough & are going to fight for them fight for better health care fight for access to jobs fight for education”

Almost daily someone wants to tell me that I should mind my own business and stay out of US "politics". So almost daily I have to remind them that Trumpism affects global economics, environment and peace. I'll do what every concerned global citizen should do. I'll express my opinion. Loudly.

Trump dismissing Epstein files as an issue is all about ‘self-protection,’ says @raskin.house.gov youtu.be/j5XQcjkwc3o?...

Every few years, the GOP majority pushes us closer and closer to a system of election by oligarchs.

In South Carolina, helping more than five people vote by mail makes you a felon. Three voters, all currently living in nursing homes, are challenging the law.

I recently learned that what I was taught in high school and American History 101 about the Japanese Internment was the white washed Disney version. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Blatant corruption on full display.

It must hurt when you're Trump and you can't pardon crooks because they were convicted on state charges, not federal ones.

BREAKING NEWS: Pentagon IG says of Hegseth's use of Signal, "The information could have imperiled American troops." If Hegseth values our troops as much as he says he does, he should resign and allow someone more experienced to lead the Department of Defense.

PRO TIP: If you're going to lash out at reporters for questioning your stamina, don't fall asleep mid-rant.

BREAKING: MS NOW: Federal prosecutors are scheduled to seek to re-indict New York Attorney General Letitia James Thursday in Norfolk on charges related to alleged mortgage fraud, according to a source with knowledge of the plans. www.ms.now/news/prosecu...

Incredible optics here, really underscores it all.

Judge Anthony Napolitano on Newsmax: "It gives me no pleasure to say what I’m about to say because I worked with Pete Hegseth for seven or eight years at Fox News. This is an act of a war crime... There’s absolutely no legal basis for it.”

No Habba job. Sad!

There wouldn't be such an uproar if der trumple and Pig Hegseth learned how to read. The folks said "illegal" orders, not legal. If you can't differentiate between the two, you have no business being prez or director of DOD. Turning the FBI loose on them is a waste of time & taxpayer dollars.

Disgusted to hear of the targeted shooting of National Guard members in DC today. All Americans should unite in condemning and rejecting this violence. Sending prayers to these victims and their families, and thankful to the responders who acted so quickly.

Remember this back in February? www.cbsnews.com/news/right-w...

"The primetime host will debut the new podcast Dec. 1, tackling the series of events that led to the U.S. to incarcerate Japanese Americans at the beginning of World War II." www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

Much needed urgency from @thefarce.org: "We must demand that the Republicans in Congress do what they don’t want to do most: their job. We must demand that the president’s war of choice in Venezuela be fully debated in both houses of Congress before it’s too late." open.substack.com/pub/thecause...

Oops! One account boosted by Trump this weekend promoted banning Ilhan Omar from office. The account is based in Africa. meidasnews.com/news/trump-a...

Trump Administration bizarrely demands the University of Pennsylvania hand over "names, phone numbers and physical addresses" for anyone who "belongs to Jewish clubs or groups on campus, and anyone who works in the university’s Jewish studies program"... www.nytimes.com/2025/11/21/u...

Jeff Cruz: They don't want people to know what's going on with Social Security and Medicare. And so what we're going to do is make sure that Spanish-speaking people, and there's 50 million Spanish speakers around in the US, have resources to share.

If CBP, Customs and Border Protection, is only supposed to operate within 100 miles of the U.S. border, what are they doing leading operations in Charlotte, North Carolina?

From Chicago to Charlotte, Trump is expanding his federal deployments across America’s cities, and New York could be next. "It's one city, it's all cities," says @cmgreer.bsky.social. "New Yorkers are getting organized" to protect their immigrant neighbors, adds @nyccomptroller.bsky.social. #Velshi

Home ownership is now out-of-reach for many Americans. @matthewstoller.bsky.social says that's because starter homes "don't exist anymore," and business and government have forgotten that "homes are for people to live in," not investments. #Velshi

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..." Prosecutors have not filed a *single* criminal charge against anyone arrested that night: www.propublica.org/article/chic...

“Lots of people will actually die,” @zekeemanuel.bsky.social warns now that Obamacare subsidies are set to expire at the end of the year. “Republicans have had 15 years since the passage of the [ACA] and haven’t come up with a replacement.” #Velshi

As U.S. citizens are increasingly being swept up in ICE arrests, fascism expert Jason Stanley says it’s “a way to normalize the targeting of everybody” and scare Black and brown Americans away from public life. #Velshi

“I could no longer bear to be silent,” says retired federal judge Mark Wolf, who quit his lifetime seat to warn about Trump’s threat to democracy. It’s part of a broader movement which Wolf hopes will “create this tidal wave that will be sufficient to sustain our democracy.” #Velshi

A whistleblower tells @raskin.house.gov that Epstein co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell is getting special treatment in prison and working on a petition to commute her prison sentence. Raskin joins me at noon EST with that and more ahead of a crucial House vote this week to release the Epstein files.
