The most despicably racist public statement of our lifetimes came from the perverted mind of @RobertKennedyJr who said “every black kid” should be taken away from every black parent and “re-parented.”Listen to the tape.
Insane‼️ How is this racist profiling protecting anyone. Law-enforcement is undermining its own credibility in this country with this unlawful behavior. Absolutely agree with pressing charges against these officers.
Trump's troops detain a Black lawyer in D.C.—swarmed by 20 officers just for walking down the block.
Paul Bryant plans to press charges on those who assaulted him "in a way that I will not forget anytime soon."
He is a West Point graduate—and served as Infantry Officer in Army before starting his legal career.
Officers from the Metropolitan Police Department, FBI, and other federal agencies stopped him for no reason in Logan Circle, Washington D.C.
He was handcuffed for an hour while his vehicle was searched without permission. #DemsUnited
@kylegriffin1@MSNBC The President is responsible for ensuring that Laws & the budget approved by Congress & signed into law are executed. The President can’t unilaterally change a budget signed into Law. The power to decide if a law or EO violates Constitution is vested in judiciary not presidency
@kylegriffin1@MSNBC The President is not a King. In this country, our Constitution, divides authority among 3 branches, with separation of powers, & checks & balances. Each branch has the power to limit actions of the other 2, preventing any 1 branch (including President) from becoming too powerful
@Eugene_Robinson Eugene I have both read your columns and watched you on MSNBC for years. You are an extraordinary writer and commentator and will be missed. However I do understand that superheroes have to also rest sometimes. Look forward to your next venture.
For every 1% decline in the @DowJones ~ $300 billion in market value is wiped out of the market. So $2.6 Trillion dollars with a “T” has been wiped out of the US market over the last month under Trump. $2.6 Trillion dollars in only ONE MONTH‼️ Imagine 4 years of this. 🙏🏽
Rebecca Kutler👎🏽@msnbc cancels only non-white anchored shows incl Balart, Capehart, Mohyeldin, Phang& beloved JReid @Joyannreid Since you’ve chosen to cancel voices that represent our diverse society. Those same voices choose to cancel you MSNBC. I’ll be encouraging others to BBC
After President Trump embarrassed the governor of Maine in front of everyone, the governor's Chief of Staff threw a tantrum and cursed out a White House official.
The White House intergovernmental affairs director reiterated Trump's message to all the gubernatorial chiefs of staff that they needed to follow the law & protect women's sports in a meeting. Everyone understood except the Maine governor's chief of staff, who got up and screamed, "F*CK YOU A*SHOLE," and stormed out of the meeting. - Via @MaryMargOlohan
President Trump really hit a tremendous nerve yesterday. All the demons in Maine are triggered.
I just watched President Trump’s news conference on the heartbreaking, horrific accident at DCA, and I have to tell you:
It’s one thing for internet pundits to spew up conspiracy theories.
It’s another for the President of the United States of America to throw out idle speculation even as victims are still being recovered, and families are still being notified. It turns your stomach.
I woke up this morning to the announcement that Quincy Jones passed last night, age 91. I just gasped. As a fellow musician, there's no way to overstate his influence on musicians around the world. The sheer genius & impact of this once in a century talent will be terribly missed

The conservative American Enterprise Institute says that Trump’s proposed tariffs would cost Americans as much as $3.9 trillion.
“Potentially one of the biggest tax hikes in decades"
If your response to Gen John Kelly, gold star father & Trump’s WH chief of staff, confirming that Trump praised Hitler & called members of our military “suckers and losers” is to defend Trump, you need to look in the mirror and realize your dishonor will live forever.
The Pres Election is very simple to me. All I hear & see from Trump is an angry man spewing hate. But I believe in the basic goodness & grace of the American people who have sustained the greatest democracy the world has seen. I also believe that love always prevails over hate.
