TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:

This statement is a clear example of what is known as “State Terrorism”: When the dictatorship will order all instruments of its state security & intelligence apparatus against its own citizens to terrorize the population.

I just left the Senate floor after speaking out against the Big Ugly Bill.

It breaks my heart that this is what we’ve come to as a Senate — and as a country.

Americans overwhelmingly oppose the U.S. entering into war with Iran. The U.S. government should work to deescalate the crisis, prevent a full blown war, and not escalate tensions that put our national security at risk.

@maddow.msnbc.com Good Morning, Rachel! I am an enormous fan of your show, your podcasts - all of it. I’m also an MSNBC fan. My question is this: why in heaven’s name is MSNBC broadcasting advertisements for Avelo Airlines?

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.
Shhh. Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare again. Sort of.
They’re not branding it an Obamacare repeal this time around, but congressional Republicans are pursuing cuts to programs that are part of the 15-year-old health-care law.

A win for truth and history: A National Park Service page(removed by Musk) on the Underground Railroad has been restored to prominently feature Harriet Tubman, after her image and quote were removed earlier this year. Now, her legacy as a fearless champion for freedom has rightfully been restored. ✊

Gosh. If only there were an historical analogue we could study to learn about the horrors of rounding people up without due process and sending them to torture camps in other countries.

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?
International tourism is worth $200 billion every year to the US economy.

Sorry, *was.

One of America's most famous cities is on fire and the richest man in the country hasn't paid a penny to assist people whose lives have been destroyed by the fires.

He has, however, been busy spewing disinformation and encouraging people to loot. Because worthless trolls are like that.

Just a reminder that your local library has more than books! Many also have dvds, cds, video games, game systems, internet hot spots, streaming services, ebooks, audio books, park passes, museum passes, and so much more! Maybe it's time for a visit! ❤️📚

I’m hopeful that Biden will offer the most obvious targets pardons before he leaves.

Otherwise, I honestly don’t know.

It makes me so sad for Fauci. Guy spends his entire life trying to save lives and gets harassed by a bunch of morons with YouTube virology degrees and 5th grade educations.

Thoughts on Hunter pardon:

- I don’t love it, but I completely understand why he did it

- with everything the incoming administration is telling us they’re going to do, we probably need to stop handcuffing ourselves with standards they won’t follow

- I wish it wasn’t this way
