🚨NEW: A case at the Supreme Court cites Trump reportedly promising oil donors favors as proof that pay-to-play influence is so pervasive that bribery laws must be narrowed so pay-to-play is no longer a prosecutable crime. The case is represented by a Trump-connected law firm.

A satisfying takedown of all things Bari, but I especially enjoyed the description of Skydance failson David Ellison as having "resting checking-into-the-White-Lotus face."

There’s been an active cover-up since the mid-2000s to conceal the Epstein Files. The damning info from the DOJ’s Office of Professional Responsibility’s investigation & report into allegations of professional misconduct by the federal prosecutors, including Alex Acosta. youtu.be/7et6kS7r-T4?...

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!! Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

But we cant have healthcare. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Speaker Johnson calls Saturday’s No Kings event a “hate America rally” run by “the pro-Hamas wing and Antifa people.” It’s the old debater’s trick—conceal a weak argument by attacking your opponent, even if you have to make it up! 🇺🇸 U-S-A! www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-guil...

A consistent thing about Trumpists in power is how they want everyone else to believe that people only do things for money

The right’s overreaction says it all — the first No Kinds rallies worked. Nothing scares them more than people standing up to their nonsense. @indivisible.org #NoKings

Where’s Chuck Barris when you need him? This president’s act has gone on way too long — time to GONG! him off the stage!📺

The staff of the CDC - all public servants with impeccable credentials - often do unheralded work. It’s that very work which makes us clinicians much smarter - they let us know of new threats, give us key disease trends, and help shape our diagnostic acumen. A functioning CDC is good medicine.

Today, House Republicans will take their 70th day off with pay in the last 82 days.

NEW: Trump meant to send a Truth Social DM to Pam Bondi about indicting his rivals. That sounds like official business, so I'm filing a FOIA for her DMs, plus those of five other cabinet members. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/my-latest-...

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

WATCH: Former Vice President Kamala Harris sits down with MSNBC’s Eugene Daniels for a wide-ranging interview.

This is how you’re supposed to treat fascists and their lies. Media pay attention.

If Jesus were alive today, how do you think he would feel about Trump, his enablers, and the MAGA Cult? ⛪ #Jesus #Trump #MAGACult

Epstein files giving House Republicans over two months paid vacation and counting.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

Are we really about to lose our minds and turn on each other again? For what—money, power, plain stupidity? This isn’t the America we’re supposed to be. We were great because we stood together. Enough already. We are one nation—act like it! #CivilWar #America

6 mass shootings in ONE week. 10 killed, 40 injured. And what do Trump and the GOP do? Nothing—not even a mention. Still marching to the gun lobby. This is not normal. This is America right now, and it’s infuriating. #MassShooting #Trump #GOP

Trump's threats of martial law are bringing us closer to his hellish dream of dictatorship, and we cannot be complacent. Watch the LP Podcast here: https://youtube.com/watch?v=sCHRSOlzf64

Please pitch in if you can to help make next Saturday the biggest day of protest in US history! We’re seeing a surge in RSVPs and we need to match that enthusiasm with the resources and support that our groups, hosts, and volunteers need: secure.actblue.com/donate/indiv...

Argentina. Qatar. Trump is selling out America, piece by piece. Where did America First go?

Breaking: Pam Bondi spends the weekend nursing her Forever Pour while brainstorming new ways to indict anyone who crosses the Criminal-in-Chief. Priorities!🍷🍷🍷

If an asshole had an asshole it would be Kid Rock.

@velshi.com: We're seeing a politically weak Trump throw the authoritarian spaghetti at the wall youtu.be/pt5lesRK1iQ?...

Must be nice: government shuts down, lawmakers keep cashing checks. No work, all perks. Is there a LinkedIn listing for “Do Nothing, Get Paid—Congress Edition”? 😡 @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

What are we doing here America? youtube.com/shorts/s6ZCg...

Argentina gets $20 billion, Qatar gets an airbase in Iowa, while our soldiers are being fed by food banks. Orgs like Army Emergency Relief are stepping in amidst Trump’s shutdown, and you can make a donation at any of the links in this thread:

Trump wants you to worry about Antifa, which is about as real as Bigfoot

The sickest children from around the country are brought to Children's National Hospital for treatment. The doctors who care for them work days on end for starvation wages. These doctors deserve a fair bargain. NOW.

- Millions of federal employees aren’t getting paid - 15 million people about to lose their health care - 24 million Americans could see their insurance premiums DOUBLE Now Speaker Johnson gives House Republicans another week off work. 4 straight weeks out of DC. Unbelievable.

MSNBC EXCLUSIVE: The acting U.S. Attorney in Maryland is moving forward quickly to seek criminal charges against President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton, according to two people familiar with the case.

WUT?!

BREAKING NEWS on the indictment of NY Attorney General, Letitia James. I break down the indictment, the fatal flaws in the government’s claims, & why the continued weaponization of the criminal justice system by Convicted Felon Donald Trump will just blow up in his face. youtu.be/O1E-EQxiD5c?...

Congratulations to new Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado for her courageous struggle to bring democracy to Venezuela.

Every day, I’m more baffled — how can anyone still vote for Republicans? They don’t give a damn about the people! It’s all about power, greed, and shoving their beliefs down everyone’s throats, just like organized religion. The rich get richer, and the rest of America gets crushed! 😖

It’s Day 10 of the Trump Shutdown. The government is closed because Republicans don’t want to provide healthcare to working-class Americans. Extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits NOW.

🚨 Today in Portland, large groups peacefully gathered to unite against hate and oppression. 1/2

I’m sure Trump will post a heartfelt and sincere congratulatory message to Maria Corina Machado for winning the Nobel Peace Prize, as any president with class and dignity would do.

Thoughts and prayers for Donald J Trump

If America can’t take care of its own people — kids are going hungry, families are losing health insurance, the military isn’t getting paid — then why the hell are we sending $20 billion to Argentina? This is beyond insanity. Take care of Americans first! 😡 #Argentina #Bailout

Trump is slashing $$$ for essential energy projects across the US. Millions of Americans will lose their healthcare coverage b/c of the GOP at the end of 2025. @casten.house.gov on the importance of cheap clean energy & how Illinois is under siege from the Trump Admin. youtu.be/Epzv5x8kreQ?...

Trump 1.0 hurt. Trump 2.0 is crushing. The constant chaos is wearing Americans down, and it’s brutal. Where’s the coverage of the mental toll? So many people I know are struggling daily. 👩‍⚕️ #MentalHealth @msnbc.com @lastword.msnbc.com

I want to know what Trump is promising Halligan for ruining her career??? Money? Wife #4?

Allegations of Pay to Play is a hallmark of this Trump Administration and Border Czar, Tom Homan, is no stranger to them. @propublica.org investigative journalist, Avi Asher-Schapiro, joins me w/his latest on the push to cash in on Homan’s role in the Trump Regime. youtu.be/65_jPoVDDag?...
