When Tom Homan asked construction workers if they were legal, they should’ve asked him what he did with the $50,000 he took in an FBI sting, and why that’s legal.

When the MAGA fascist movement was building years ago, I posted on Twitter that Republicans had the choice of sharing power with Democrats or creating a dictatorship — and they seemed to be choosing dictatorship. There’s no doubt about that now.

Tennessee Republicans have stolen political power from the state’s 2 largest cities, Nashville and Memphis. Memphis is split in 3 districts; Nashville is split in 5. This is not democracy. This is a vandalism of democracy.

Todd Blanche is playing stupid here. You don't have to be a genius to understand how the presence of masked, armed thugs at polling places might affect turnout.

Chicago is getting ready for another ICE surge: "Building on lessons learned from last year in Chicago and Minneapolis, these new strategies include tapping new dispatch systems to speed responses when agents are spotted and encouraging block-by-block, hyperlocal communication."

"Trump has been told for over a decade by his loyal base that God has anointed him to lead America. So the idea that Pope Leo is a moral voice for the world—or for Americans in particular—is anathema to Trump."

The Trump regime loves to screw with the poor. Cruelty is a sport to them.

Just once I’d like to see a news outlet write a headline saying: PRESIDENT WHO LIES ALL THE TIME SAYS SOMETHING NEW WE CAN‘T VERIFY It would be the perfect headline for our time.

The Trump regime’s war diplomacy looks like something put together by real estate guys, because it is.

The Republican Party is systematically stealing political power from Black Americans. It’s a hate movement, an embrace of indecency. When Republicans said “Make American Great Again,” what they really wanted was the complete erasure of the civil rights movement.

Kash Patel is using the FBI shield on personalized bottles of bourbon that he's giving out, the Atlantic's Sarah Fitzpatrick reports. Patel's lawsuit against the Atlantic looks more drunk every day.

Well that’s a little on the nose. Message I just received from the New York City Bar Association:

Howard Lutnick lied about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, a man who raped children. What else is Lutnick hiding? The only reason Trump won't fire him is that Trump has his own Epstein secrets.

Last year, even before it was revealed that Howard Lutnick lied about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, I wrote this installment of my Stop the Presses newsletter in which I detailed Lutnick's lies on topics such as tariffs, DOGE, Project 2025 and RFK Jr. Lutnick needs to be fired.

The Venezuela operation was a success if you believe in illegally attacking and killing people in foreign countries and stealing their things. Otherwise, it wasn't.

The funniest part of this is Harris telling the reporter on scene "Great job getting [Lucas for comment] right as this was going on!" because the FBI fucking coordinated with Fox News and they were on scene before Lucas had even arrived at work. Absolute third world clown shit.

Just heard Rep. James Comer say that Howard Lutnick "wasn't 100% truthful" about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. That's like saying Jeffrey Dahmer's diet wasn't 100% plant-based.

The Trump regime wants you to think it's a good sign when you're running up credit card debt to pay for groceries and gasoline.

If only Trump cared as much about ending the war as he cares about manipulating the markets by raising hopes of ending the war.

It's bad news that the FBI is targeting a reporter in a leak investigation over her story about Kash Patel's drunken dereliction of duty. But it's good news that the existence of the leak investigation was ... leaked.

Bootlicking wasn't an American characteristic until MAGA came along.

What happens when "a partisan newsletter editor with zero broadcast experience" gets the top job at CBS News? We're seeing that now, and it ain't pretty. Jennifer Schulze assesses the damage in her Indistinct Chatter newsletter, which you should consider subscribing to.

Oh, they know.

Jonathan Pollard, who spied on the U.S. for Israel, is running for Israel’s legislature on a platform of ethnic cleansing — “the forcible removal of all current residents of Gaza, and the annexation of Gaza and its repopulation by us.”

They lied that Trump’s ballroom would be privately funded. They lie all the time about everything.

Trump announces that because of "Great Progress" the strait will remain closed. You read that right.

People on MS NOW need to stop saying nice things about Marco Rubio. Stop being conned. He's a co-conspirator in war crimes.

Dear mainstream media, When you don't prominently report that the president of the United States is mentally unhinged, that means you: A) Don't know obvious, important facts. or B) Are trying to hide obvious, important facts from the public. Either one is unconscionable. Do better or close down.

🚨Sponsors of Trump’s Christian nationalist event include Mastercard and United Airlines. Pastor Robert Jeffress: “We’ll celebrate the 250th birthday of America in a great and glorious way as we pray for America to rededicate herself to God through Americans rededicating themselves to Jesus Christ.”

Why are we in a war? Don't say "to open the Strait of Hormuz" because the strait was open before the war. Don't say "to stop an imminent nuclear threat" because Trump is sticking with his claim that the threat was "obliterated" last June. "To distract from Epstein" might be the winning answer.

When I see the stock market go up these days, I don't think, "Good for my 401(k)!" I think, "Those Wall Street vultures would sprint over my corpse to profit from endless war and emerging dictatorship."

This is despicable. This is how authoritarian regimes behave.

I prefer less giggling from the press at a news conference focusing mostly on a war that has killed thousands and disrupted the global economy.

Marco Rubio is putting on a charm offensive at this press conference, and it seems to be working. The alleged journalists are giggling at the war criminal's little jokes. Little Marco and the subservient press will be clinking champagne glasses at the next correspondents dinner.

ICE is using your money to buy off local police to become junior Gestapo members.

In a speech at the U.S. Capitol in 1900, Sen. John T. Morgan of Alabama declared that “falsified election returns” by Southern white people were “self-defense” against Black people’s "brutal desires.” Has Alabama really changed that much, considering its current racist gerrymandering push?

The reason to keep asking Republican politicians who won the 2020 election is that you're really asking them if they're fascist monsters who will destroy the future of everyone you know and love.

Swalwell drugged and raped women. This is not simply “seeming horny.” Cilliza what the actual fuck man.

What a freak Trump is, forcing kids to listen to him go on and on about massacres in Iran, including a description of women being shot between the eyes.

🔥 NEW MSNOW: Major companies are funding Trump’s Christian nationalist event "Several well-known companies have signed on as sponsors of Trump’s plans to celebrate America’s upcoming 250th anniversary." Ja'Han Jones writes about the upcoming Rededicate 250 event: www.ms.now/news/news-an...

Here's Trump confirming that the American Civil War is still going on.

These poor children, subjected to a lunatic's ravings about nuclear war.

The Trump regime is using an official social media account — managed with taxpayer funds — to post offensive horseshit like this.

"The sad fact is that a lot of powerful people prefer a dictatorship if they’re allowed to help do the dictating."

The plain, ugly fact is that Republicans don't want trans people to exist. Republicanism is a fascist hate movement.

Mainstream media are puffing up Marco Rubio, as if his assistance with Trump's war crimes is a sign of competence.

Looks like foreigners don't want to risk being imprisoned by ICE just for a chance to see a soccer game.

News flash: A group of proven liars gave us some numbers!

This needs to be kept in mind. The Trump regime sticks ringers into the press corps to ask softball questions.
