Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"

The Message Is β€˜We Can Take Your Children’ More systematically than in his first term, Trump is rolling back protections for undocumented minors.

🧡 Reminiscent of Stephen's Miller's horrific child separation program during Trump's first term, the current regime is noticeably ramping up child detentions...

One attorney, Lizbeth Mateo, said ICE officials slated several of her clients for check-ins at the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building in downtown L.A. but when they showed up on Tuesday, they were detained and immediately escorted to the basement.

Mateo said a couple and their two children, one of whom is a U.S. citizen, spent the night in a room with no beds and limited access to food and water. Mateo said the father had previously been issued a stay of removal, barring him from deportation but he and his family were detained anyway. His wife was released Wednesday evening along with their children since she needed medical attention due to a high-risk pregnancy. He was still being detained early Friday, Mateo said.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles.

Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

I'm increasingly struggling with the fact that right wing members of Congress keep going to a concentration camp run by their favorite dictator, as if it's some kind of amusement park or sex club, and there's almost no backlash.

Elon Musk’s achievements to date in the field of human transportation are: cars that drive themselves off cliffs and rockets that explode mid-flight.

Teslas have the worst fatality rate in the auto industry.

Commercial aviation is so safe, it averages only one accident per 880,000 flights.

After his executive order on sex, is Trump legally the first female president? The confusing and vague executive order underscores how complex sex is and why it’s hard to reduce it into a neat binary

After his executive order on sex, is Trump legally the first female president?

Because the undifferentiated genitalia that males and females share very early in fetal development are β€œphenotypically female”, you could argue he just made everyone legally female.

Trump looks at this reverend who asks for compassion with bored, bleary eyes. It will have no effect on this sociopath, but it is a noble act of defiance at a time when too many are modeling obedience.

Musk comes from a family that moved to South Africa *for* the racism. He has repeatedly endorsed Great Replacement Theory in the US & Neo-Nazis of the AfD in Germany. He championed the rights of white nationalists and restored Nazi accounts to Twitter.

But I'm sure the Nazi salute was an accident.

AOC: Trans girls are girls. And for all the folks that are so concerned, thank you for your concern for women for the first time. I don't know who has been to gym class, I’ve played co-ed sports all the time

Just to be clear, you are defending a Heil Hitler salute that was performed and repeated for emphasis and clarity.

People can officially stop listening to you as any sort of reputable source of information now. You work for them. Thank you for making that crystal clear to all.

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

New on MSNBC: Vice President Harris will fly back to Los Angeles today with an all-female U.S. Air Force crew β€” the first time an all-female crew has operated a C-33.

Upon landing, Harris will visit a local fire station and then distribute food to community members impacted by the wildfires.
