Social Security Works President Nancy Altman: I've now worked on this program for 50 of those 90 years and I'll tell you the biggest threat Social Security has ever faced is Donald Trump and Elon Musk, and we have to make sure that they do not win.

Wow @maddow.msnbc.com thank you for your very strong, very heartfelt words just now to, and about, MSNBC.
Maddow is calling what’s happening with non-white anchors at MNSBC a bad mistake, unnerving, worse than bad, and indefensible. And she calls the dozens of producer layoffs “not the right way to treat people, inefficient, and unnecessary.”

Democracy requires your courage.
