I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Racism wins with this Supreme Court...again.
BREAKING: By an apparent 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court halts an injunction that had prevented immigration agents from racially profiling Latinos in central California.

Sotomayor, dissenting, says the decision is "unconscionably irreconcilable with our nation's constitutional guarantees."

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day.

Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day.

It's not about what this country can or can’t afford.

If there's no Covid testing to track Covid, there's no Covid.
The BLS did exactly what it's supposed to do: provide accurate, nonpartisan data. When the numbers showed Trump's "economic boom" was actually a bust (33k jobs vs claimed 291k), he fired the messenger. After all, when it rains too much, true leaders fire the meteorologists.

Nearly one in three people in Gaza are going multiple days without eating, according to the UN.

More than 1,000 have been killed by Israeli forces while trying to get food at aid sites.

By continuing to supply Israel with military aid, the U.S. is complicit in this bloodbath.

Only if they care about a just world.
The mass starvation & killing of Palestinians in Gaza at the hands of the Israeli gov’t is a chillul hashem, a desecration of God.

Jewish leaders who criticized Zohran Mamdani for three words he doesn’t use should raise their voices loudly here as well.

Gaza is starving. Where are the American Jewish leaders?
A fear of being labelled antisemitic still deters American Jews and Jewish institutions from taking a position that is morally correct.

Just remember...there was absolutely nothing normal about the United States Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell. Nothing. Not by protocol. Not by precedent. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

Ghislaine Maxwell is about to tell a lot of lies about Democrats in order to get a pardon or sentence reduction from Donald Trump. As non-partisan journalists, we are required to repeat those lies.

Guess how much the wage would be today if it kept up with worker productivity over the years?

Trump is gutting the police that stop corporations from looting — the EPA, IRS, SEC, Labor Department, Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Consumer Product Safety Commission, FDA, and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

Absolutely surreal to watch White House reporters ask Leavitt questions about tariffs moments after she and Gabbard used this briefing to baselessly accuse Obama of crimes punishable by death. We’re a sick joke of a country.

This is where I tell you that, just like Conan O'Brien, Stephen Colbert is a profoundly kind, generous and decent man. He has been that way to me and I've never heard a bad word about him, ever. He deserves better than this and I have no doubt -- like Conan -- he will get it.
