It’s #maddow time, and it’s not just any election. It just isn’t. Trump is both the most and 2nd-most unpopular president of all time.

Some of the very best and most important political journalism of late has come from Lex and the team at Teen Vogue. Follow them all wherever they go.

Hmm — what a great day for Teen Vogue to kill the politics coverage that helps young people navigate and understand how quiet moves such Idaho's rejection of family planning funding directly affect their lives.
SCOOP: Idaho’s health department quietly declined the entirety of its annual $1.5 million federal Title X funding in April, leaving patients statewide without any access to the family planning program.

When we were deployed, some Afghans risked their lives to help us. Now Trump wants to send them out to be killed by the Taliban.

It’s a disgrace, a betrayal, and a decision that endangers future US troops.
Exclusive: The U.S. government asked a judge to deport a man to Afghanistan, where he expects the Taliban to kill him. Legal experts say the case could have consequences for Afghans the U.S. rescued and promised to support.

Rachel Maddow and I discuss a shocking new move by the Trump administration: sending Department of Justice “poll monitors” — handpicked by Pam Bondi — to California and New Jersey just days before the November elections and why this poses a grave threat to free and fair elections.

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.

I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.

If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

Holy sh!t!
If you’re not watching Rachel Maddow @maddowblog.msnbc.com tonight, it’s repeated later. If you don’t have access to MSNBC, you do have access to TuneIn radio and you can listen to the show tomorrow on repeat.
DO IT!
Then share widely!
