The path for control of the Senate runs through Georgia, where Jon Ossoff is looking to hold his seat against "election denying bigot" Republican Mike Collins. Ossoff says the campaign feels "a lot of momentum," but it's an "absolutely a competitive race."

After her shock primary win Tuesday, @melatkirosco.bsky.social tells @velshi.com, "Not only is the money in our politics preventing us from passing the legislation that would make a meaningful difference for our working families, but that we don't even need it to begin with."

@walshfreedom.bsky.social tells @velshi.com that Trump's attack on our elections makes him a traitor

The Supreme Court just cleared the way for political parties to spend unlimited sums on campaigns. Former FEC Commissioner Ellen Weintraub tells Ali Velshi that this flood of money in politics "does not reflect the will of the people; it does not reflect the common sense of the people."

@velshi.com warns Trump's setback at the Supreme Court, which rejected his order ending birthright citizenship, reveals vulnerabilities that can be exploited and justices who can be swayed.

MS NOW host and Citizen board member @velshi.com sits down with @goangelo.bsky.social of Media Matters and MS NOW legal analyst @profmurray.bsky.social to break down the attempts by the Trump administration to undermine the upcoming midterm elections. https://bit.ly/4v7rvsR

MS NOW’s Ali Velshi Tears Up in Emotional Sign Off Ahead of Move to 11pm — Delivers Clarion Call for Journalism: ‘Bearing Witness’ Never Mattered More

“I chose America. I still choose it because of what was built here. A nation founded not on blood or soil or a single faith, but on an idea and an argument and a set of rules generous enough on its best days to hold all of us.” www.mediaite.com/media/news/m...

Starting June 15, I’m making the move that I've worked toward since the day I arrived. I’ll be taking the helm of @11thhourmsnow.bsky.social on @ms.now. The 11th Hour is where I started at this network a decade ago. Coming back is a full circle moment for me, and I hope you'll join me. See you 6/15

The Velshi Banned Book Club was launched to highlight under-reported stories of book bans and challenges to titles around the country. As “Velshi” comes to a close, Ali takes a look back at the incredible authors and banned writers who joined the Book Club on #Velshi www.ms.now/ali-velshi/w...

Bearing witness has never mattered more and you don’t have to be a journalist to do it. Contrary to what the people counting on your indifference want you to believe, citizenship is a choice to show up and engage with your neighbors, your community, your country. We will not look away. #Velshi

250 years ago, the most consequential words in the history of participatory democracy were written. On June 25th, @maddow.bsky.social, @jenpsaki.bsky.social, @sifill.bsky.social and I will ask what they mean now. One night only at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia. Tickets going fast.

President Trump’s habit of naming things after himself is self-aggrandizing, but it has deeper implications, says historian Jason Stanley. “You can't disentangle the symbols we're seeing, the face of Washington, D.C. and the country, from the corruption that is endemic to his regime.” #Velshi

In 1958, Ann Patchett's favorite children’s book, “The Rabbit’s Wedding,” was banned for fear it would encourage interracial marriage. “Anytime you ban a book, you are on the wrong side of history,” she says. #Velshi

Trump is inserting himself into the nation’s 250th anniversary celebrations as a classic strongman tactic, says historian @timothysnyder.bsky.social. It’s up to Americans to offer “better, different, more attractive ideas of what the 250th anniversary of our country means.” #Velshi

In the wake of Louisiana v. Callais, the Supreme Court is allowing Alabama to use a congressional map that a lower court found to be racially discriminatory. "It is a huge...middle finger to lower courts that are doing the work," says @profmmurray.bsky.social. #Velshi

Right-wing grievance campaigns to control "who gets to say what" are central to today's Republican politics, says @isaacbutler.bsky.social. "We all have the right to be upset by a work of art," but "trying to prevent other people from seeing" that art enters "dangerous territory." #Velshi

A 1988 outrage campaign by right-wing evangelical leaders over Martin Scorsese's "The Last Temptation of Christ" laid the grievance and hyperbole-based template for today's culture wars. But Americans have proven resistant to such attempts to control what art or ideas we can see or share. #Velshi
