It really doesn't get any more American than millions of Americas protesting against a tyrannical wannabe king.

Warren: The only movement these Republicans can manage is bowing down to Trump. When you ask them about today, they claim the No Kings Rally is anti-American. They’re wrong. Hundreds of thousands of people protesting peacefully for what they believe in—that is deeply American. That is patriotism.

Hasan: The UK still has a king. King Charles III, but he has less gold in his palace then Donald Trump in the oval office right now. King Charles has more respect for democratic norms than the whiny manchild trying to send his troops into as many blue cities as he can.

Hasan: Let me say to every Republican and conservative watching. Aren't you the ones that said no more big government? No tyranny in America? If you believe that, what are you doing defending masked federal agents in unmarked cars bundling people off the streets

Trump told Zelensky in a tense meeting that he doesn't intend to provide long-range Tomahawk missiles, at least for now. Zelensky hoped to leave Washington with commitments around new weapons for Ukraine, but found Trump in a totally different state of mind a day after he held a call with Putin.

Trump rejects Zelensky on Tomahawk missiles in "tough" meeting

One source said the meeting "was not easy." Another simply said "it was bad."

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.
