Israel is expanding its ground invasion of Lebanon amid the U.S.-led war with Iran. London School of Economics political scientist @fawazgerges.bsky.social accuses Israel of engaging in “collective punishment” against a million Lebanese displaced by the fighting. #Velshi

@matthewstoller.bsky.social warns a scandal in Trump’s antitrust division is “speed-running Watergate in a much dumber way.” And we are finally seeing the first real investigation into potential corruption. #Velshi

An antitrust scandal within the Department of Justice is threatening to break wide open. The Wall Street Journal reports on Mike Davis, a Washington lobbyist with links to President Trump, who reportedly wields extraordinary influence bypassing regulators on major corporate deals. #Velshi

Two historic verdicts may signal a shift in holding social media companies accountable. @hartmannreport.com argues if Meta moderated its site, "Mark Zuckerberg might go from being worth hundreds of billions to only tens of billions of dollars...but we'd have a much safer environment" #Velshi

What do 18th century colonists, an eight-year-old with cerebral palsy, and a 15-year-old schoolgirl from Alabama have in common? Each made a choice to challenge injustice. America’s history is shaped by ordinary people standing up for something greater than themselves. #Velshi

Colm Tóibín’s new book, “The News From Dublin,” includes the timely story of an undocumented Irish immigrant who leaves America right as President Trump returns to office. The author’s restraint, intensity, and deliberation have earned him praise as one of Ireland’s great living writers. #Velshi

3PM ET TODAY! It's Happening with Velshi and Ruhle on YouTube www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsug...

For the cost of dropping bombs on Iran, Opinion Columnist for the New York Times Nicholas Kristof argues the U.S. could fund universal pre-K, guarantee healthcare subsidies, and solve famine across the world. Instead, the Pentagon is requesting $200 billion from Congress. www.ms.now/ali-velshi/w...

America’s housing crisis is the result of years of under-building, and it won’t be solved by federal talking points. Real change must happen locally through reforms like zoning changes that make it easier to build more affordable housing. www.ms.now/ali-velshi/w...

America’s housing crisis isn’t just about rising prices. Local zoning ordinances have made it difficult to build affordable homes in high-opportunity areas. Real solutions include reforming zoning, & democratizing who gets a say in shaping the communities in which we live. www.ms.now/ali-velshi/w...

The ‘No Kings’ rallies on March 28 are expected to draw millions nationwide. Third Act co-founder Bill McKibben says the mass gatherings empower Americans. “It matters in the biggest possible way…The craziness of this moment is what’s driving people.” www.ms.now/ali-velshi/w...

Organizers behind the nationwide ‘No Kings’ movement expect their biggest turnout yet on Saturday March 28. With more than 3,000 rallies planned across the country, the mass-protest movement against President Trump’s policies could grow even bigger. www.ms.now/ali-velshi/w...

Organizers behind the nationwide ‘No Kings’ movement expect their biggest turnout yet on March 28. With more than 3,000 rallies planned across the country, the mass-protest movement against President Trump’s policies could grow even bigger. #Velshi

"You know who still looks at pictures of his crowds? Donald Trump." Political organizer @billmckibben.bsky.social discusses why ‘No Kings’ rallies are so empowering for Americans. It “matters in the biggest possible way." #Velshi

The solution to America’s housing crisis isn’t federal talking points, it's local reforms that actually build more affordable housing, says urban economist @jennyschuetz.bsky.social. This is about people “not being able to live in the communities where they work." #Velshi

The freedom to move, rebuild, and strive is in America’s DNA. But, housing affordability will require local solutions – starting with reforming zoning rules that lock working families out of the American Dream. Otherwise, expect deeper economic and racial divides. #Velshi

For a small sliver of the cost of war with Iran, @nickkristof.bsky.social argues we could fund universal pre-K, guarantee healthcare subsidies, and solve famine across the world. “Yet we can afford to drop bombs endlessly, and I would say fruitlessly, on Iran,” Kristof said. #Velshi

#NoKingsDay rallies return next weekend nationwide, w/ millions expected to turn out. I’ll speak with @leahgreenberg.bsky.social & Hannah Stauss of @handsoffnyc.bsky.social @ 10aET as well as @billmckibben.bsky.social @ 12pET, to discuss why Americans should go out & make their voices heard. #Velshi

The Senate convenes today for a rare working weekend session to debate the "SAVE Act” voting bill. @whitehouse.senate.gov dubs it "The Steal the Next Election Act” and joins me at 10 a.m. EDT to explain why. #Velshi

Your “aww” moment of the week. Ali Velshi gives @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social a warm welcome as he prepares to take the helm of the weekend show this summer. “We are not just buddies– you are a role model for me,” says Soboroff. “And so, I love you, I love this show, I love this network.” #Velshi

Deportations & DNA swabs: Trump’s immigration crackdown isn’t slowing– it’s moving out of sight. And now, new reports warn ICE may also be targeting American dissent, with agents collecting DNA from detained protesters. #Velshi www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/w...

If you’ve been feeling intimidated to pick up a Toni Morrison book, let @tayari.bsky.social ease your worries: “one thing [Morrison] doesn't get enough credit for is that she plots a novel like a house on fire.” #Velshi #VelshiBannedBookClub

Oil prices are spiking, due to the U.S.-led war with Iran. @calebsilver.bsky.social of People, Inc. & Investopedia unpacks oil price hikes from recent history to explain why we should all expect “an overall inflationary effect." He warns, “We don’t know long it’s going to last.” #Velshi

Margaret Atwood insisted "The Handmaid’s Tale" was rooted in real history. Now, a new Ohio bill proposed by Republicans would track all pregnancies in the state. @michelebgoodwin.bsky.social warns the bill could lead to “criminal punishments and civil fines and various other horrors.” #Velshi

A new pilot program for Medicare aims to use AI to reduce costs by reducing “spending on unnecessary care.” Patients complain of delays & denials of service. Technology Journalist @byjacobward.bsky.socialcomplains, “(This) is part of a long tradition of basically experimenting on powerless people.”

As the current war in Ukraine enters its fifth year, Ali Velshi reunites with a former refugee who fled Russia's invasion. Nastya Shpot says she has been inspired by her own journey taking journalists to Ukraine’s frontlines. “I was like, ‘This is my moment, this is something I want to do.’”

Republican Congressman Andy Ogles recently proclaimed, "Pluralism is a lie," in an Islamophobic post online. But pluralism, the belief in a society constituted by its many parts, is the foundational value of the United States that he chooses not to grasp. #Velshi

Kathy Spillar is sounding the alarm on a new policy blueprint released by The Heritage Foundation that she says aims to roll back advances for women. Despite that, she insists women across the country are organizing in the courts, in elections, and in the streets, refusing to go backward. #Velshi

The Heritage Foundation, authors of Project 2025, has released a new blueprint to “save America by saving the family.” Critics warn the policy proposals push women toward greater economic dependence on men, by promoting policies designed to pressure women into marriage and motherhood. #Velshi

@shawnforcongress.bsky.social took the lead in Georgia’s special election to fill Marjorie Taylor Greene’s seat in Congress, which now goes to a runoff vote. “What I've been saying to all of my Republican friends that support me is this: when you vote for me... you are voting for your interest."

The race to fill Marjorie Taylor Greene’s vacated seat in Congress heads for a runoff vote. None of the 17 candidates running got more than 50% of the vote. Georgia’s minimum threshold rule for elections has segregationist roots that were designed to keep Black candidates from public office.

2020’s “Big Lie” is still going strong in President Trump's America, as his administration uses federal resources to keep it alive. @adrianfontes.bsky.social joins me at noon EDT on Trump's new probe in Arizona. #Velshi
