Elon Musk and Donald Trump are trying to make you believe that they are cutting “waste,” but they’re actually reaching into your wallet to fund tax cuts for their “rich as hell” friends.
Spread the word.
Trump is running the government like a Ponzi scheme—treating Americans like suckers while he lines the pockets of the wealthy and his cronies. He thinks people will forget, but they won’t. They’re feeling the pain every day. Thanks for having me last night, @chrislhayes.
Today, we mark the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday.
On that cold Sunday morning, 600 brave souls began their march from Selma to Montgomery. They were met with crushing violence, beaten by troopers with nightsticks and trampled by horses. And still, they returned to Selma and marched on, crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge determined to push our nation toward a future that was more equal, more just, and more free.
60 years later, we honor the legacy of those 600 brave souls, and we march on.
This work is not easy, and we cannot do it alone. Together, we recommit to our fight to safeguard the freedom to vote. Together, we must stand for democracy. Together, we must continue our fight for justice, equality, and opportunity for all.
My office is working every day to stop Trump and his administration from dismantling our democracy, raising prices, and harming New Yorkers and all Americans.
I'm going to keep fighting to uphold the law and protect our communities.
I fell in love with Carl Dean when I was 18 years old. We have spent 60 precious and meaningful years together. Like all great love stories, they never end. They live on in memory and song. He will always be the star of my life story, and I dedicate this song to him.

60 years ago, a group of brave civil rights organizers marched across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama in the pursuit of justice and equality. Today we’re reminded of their courageous sacrifices, and tasked with the responsibility of doing what we can to carry forward their work.
Rep. Al Green made a fierce defense of Medicaid and protecting recipients of the health insurance in response to his censure over a vocal protest he made during Pres. Trump's address to Congress. https://t.co/Td9mD5xOv6
A federal judge in Washington ruled Thursday that President Trump's firing of the chair of the National Labor Relations Board was unlawful and said she must be allowed to continue in her role. https://t.co/6x2phoWytq
Tonight, I encourage you all to turn OFF the State of the DisUnion & instead tune into the 24 hour State of The People which is currently streaming!
If you want truth, this is where you will find it!
Finally, as I’m still unsure about my attendance tonight, I must say that I wish I could tap Kendrick and ask, “What would K Dot do?”
Ahead of Trump’s Joint Address tonight, I’m reminded of Congressman John Lewis’s timeless call to action:
“Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America.”
You caught us @nataliegwinters! My sister who has a PhD in public health and decades of experience trying to help address global health disparities did indeed work for an organization that was focused on doing exactly that. A goal (in addition to addressing corruption and helping feed and treat people around the world USAID shares) Such a burn exposing us for trying to help people. Congrats!
You clowns are up to the same old tired crap. When your guy screws up and royally embarrasses himself and the U.S., you try to change the subject and lie about a favorite target to distract and deflect.
For the record, I have never met Zelenskyy and never spoken to him. Ever. Or advised him or anybody around him.
It’s a shame that you contend that it is in the U.S. national interest to sell out Ukraine and suck up to Putin.
Donald Trump is betraying our legacy of defending our allies against tyranny.
Since the President clearly won’t do his job,
In Congress, we damn well better do ours.
