First on MS NOW: House Oversight Ranking Member Robert Garcia just announced that Oversight Democrats will hold a shadow field hearing as part of their Epstein investigation in Palm Beach, Florida on April 14. The field hearing will include testimony from survivors and important witnesses.

well. time to get up, pull on thermal layer, get dressed, and get out there. Remember, if they get me, politicize the hell out of it. then get back out there. They can’t kill us all.

ICE claims he drew a weapon. It appears to me his weapon was confiscated before the shot was fired. The man in the tan jacket. Look at his right hand. Empty. He goes in at the victim’s lower back. You can see the victim’s shirt lift. Jacket man walks away with weapon. Shot fired. Man dies. Murder.

things are horrific on the ground at the scene in mn right now, and another upside of the signal chat network is that people are learning what is happening in real time. find yours. join it. build it before you need it.

Federal agents are throwing tear gas canisters at protesters following the shooting of a legal observer. They tackle a man to the ground. You can hear me coughing from the tear gas. A local restaurant took me in until I could recuperate.

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social EMERGENCY PROTEST TODAY. ICE just murdered another person in Minneapolis. Union Square. 4PM.

BREAKING: An eyewitness told The Intercept that the victim of this morning’s fatal shooting by federal agents in Minneapolis appeared to be one of several legal observers who mobilized this morning outside a donut shop. theintercept.com/2026/01/24/m...

New York AG James said she's received complaints of stores in her state refusing EBT cards and has already sent out several cease and desist letters. Stores are not allowed to refuse SNAP benefits. If this happens to you, call the AG's hotline to report at 1-800-771-7755.

They’re going to mass arrest them and put the homeless into camps to work for free labor Capitalism requires a permanent underclass. There arent enough prisons to supplement the cheap labor we are losing by isolating our allies & deporting immigrants This exploitation & violence will be homegrown

we don't do endorsements, but we definitely have a breakdown of the questions, yes! here you go:

The clips and conversations I’m hearing about the SNAP (food stamp) cuts should be above the fold everywhere. It’s a scary time for a lot of people.

This is incredibly critical right now, friends - a kickoff call for the @handsoffnyc.bsky.social coalition to talk about how to resist Trump's occupation here in NYC. Please make the time! www.mobilize.us/nycindivisib...

A Mainer received an Amazon order containing 250 missing ballots for an upcoming referendum that could tighten ballot access in the state. The stunt left some questioning whether it was organized by the referendum’s backers to elicit election fear. https://bit.ly/42DKdwZ

Bloomberg has gotten its hands on some of the details of the $11 billion Army Corps cuts. Apparently, most comes from New York. Includes New York Harbor projects and Queens sewer/water projects. The flooding problems in Queens are no secret. -- www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

As this country crumbles, Indigenous rights and sovereignty are going to come to the forefront, as well as States Rights. Be prepared to advocate for Native tribes and people. We are the front line and we hold the answers to lead a new way.

Council Member Nantasha Williams is right: we need to address housing delays, but these ballot proposals won’t make new housing move faster—they’re about moving power further away from the people.

Sounds like Mike Johnson hasn't read @nicolefoy.bsky.social's story yet. Here's the link 💁‍♂️ www.propublica.org/article/immi...

Still no fact checking from Politico on repeat Cuomo lies about his pervasive sexual harassment. Every person monitoring this debate is guilty of not doing their job on that front.

I am planning on going to No Kings gathering this weekend in central Texas. And since I was terminated by MSNBC a few weeks ago, can someone let me know where to pick up paycheck that GOP keeps talking about. I have asked many folks going to No Kings, and none are getting paid.

The NYC mayoral debate starts with Mamdani promising to raise taxes "on Andrew Cuomo's donors."

Federal agents are overtly abusing their power to try to intimidate advocates and elected officials. We need ICE out of Illinois immediately and justice for people like Ald. Jessie Fuentes who are defending their communities. blockclubchicago.org/2025/10/03/f...

RIP CALLTIME, THE AGE OF STREAMING IS NOW

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

On June 24, I began my Election Night speech by quoting Mandela: “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” That's the spirit of this campaign, and our city. This is "Until It’s Done,” a new series about New Yorkers who refused to accept that a worthy goal was impossible.

We're shocked –– shocked we tell you! –– that @nyscomptroller.bsky.social found that the Federal Budget Scam hurts working-class New Yorkers while benefiting the ridiculously rich. Anyone else think it's time for a special session to #TaxTheRich?

I wonder whether Delgado's primary threat sufficiently pushed Hochul to take a more bracing approach as a Democratic leader … I mean we're still a far way away from the gubernatorial and anything could happen but

Fox News is really out here responding to a right wing shooter by blaming the left for violent political rhetoric while themselves calling to mass euthanize homeless and mentally ill people. Beyond parody and absolutely deadly.

Breaking: Missouri House passes new gerrymandered US House map giving GOP 90% of seats in state Trump won with 58% of vote. Destroys district held by Black Rep Emanuel Cleaver, one of 2 Dems in state Texas was just start of Trump’s sweeping plan to rig midterms www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Angeline Boulley, author of the hit Firekeeper's Daughter, writes thrillers set in Native American communities in northern Michigan, like the ones where her family has lived for generations.

Well the man in the middle of this photo is Joel Pashcow—in Epstein’s little black book— and also seen here in 1994 sitting with Epstein and… RFK, Jr. at a fundraiser.

"How Are the Very Rich Feeling About New York’s Next Mayor?" A Dramatic Reading of The Recent New York Times Dispatch from the Hamptons. Presented by The Gilded Age's Morgan Spector.

Today’s final court decision in support of our lawsuit to block Mayor Adams’ corrupt and illegal plan to open an ICE office on Rikers Island is a major win for public safety and the Constitutional rights of New Yorkers. The court recognized Mayor Adams’ attempt to do Trump’s bidding was unlawful.

Obama's former campaign manager says Democratic leaders haven't endorsed Zohran Mamdani due to "donor pressure." "I think it's a mistake ... he carried Hakeem Jeffries' district 2 to 1."

just sitting here thinking about the courage and determination of E. Jean Carroll compared to the abject craven collapse of the pretty much every silicon valley CEO

Back in March, @schumer.senate.gov @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social helped MAGA fund Trump’s coup thru Sep 30. Now it’s time to pass new funding & once again the GOP needs Dem votes. Join us on 9/15 at noon to let them know we can’t afford another Schumer Surrender. www.mobilize.us/indivisiblen...

I’m in Texas with @oilfieldwitness.bsky.social and this is what I witnessed today: These are compressor stations. Like the kind planned for NYS to push fracked gas through pipelines we don’t want or need. Turn on the sound. Standing near them is like standing next to a jet plane. BUT… 1/2

Zohran Mamdani said at his rally in brooklyn just now that “we have to prepare for the inevitability” of Trump deploying the National Guard in New York City.

Know your rights, Illinois. Stay safe and stay informed.

“They want you to think that you are powerless. We say: to hell with you. We’re gonna take you on.” — @sanders.senate.gov

Run. For. Everything.

People organizing for affordable housing increasingly agree: the solution likely includes some sort of social housing. A key question we must be able to answer is how to fund it. To learn how, attend @housethefuture.bsky.social's 101. Graphic reposted to include alt text. Signup link in next post.

anyone from @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social’s team follow me here? trying to get a press pass for the rally with bernie tonight. help!

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents. In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

1/3 Just so we are all clear on this. Based on what this former official "who has years of direct experience in fighting drug cartels" told the Times. The order to blow up the Venezuelan boat may have instead killed migrants who were being smuggled. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/03/u...

"FBI informant" is a euphemistic way to say "collaborator with corrupt US government institutions to streamline organized crime"
