2 weeks after being violently attacked & arrested. "Good job, Mayor Bowser. You're a Fascist, too.”
Historians… and also the guy who played Duckie in Pretty in Pink www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/s...
Reports of someone with a sawed-off Turkey-bacon-ranch?
Giving up Donbas — or any portion of Ukraine — is unfathomable to locals of Ukrainian descent, who insist their entire homeland must be sovereign without exception or partial surrender.
What? So, let me get this straight - Rudy gets in a car crash - not even 72 hours later he's being awarded the Presidential of freedom? And, still no sight of the President.
Ditto.
Hundreds gathered at a Chicago pro-labor demonstration and slammed Trump’s plan to send federal immigration agents and potentially National Guard troops to the city. The protest is a part of a series expected to stretch throughout the country.
LOL! Sounds exactly right. I guess a small cred to @msnbc.com for covering protests.
Wasn't asking you, but, since you chimed in. I think you're cavalier attitude underscores the problem we have in this country as it relates to the Israeli government. Why is it that genocide scholars, such as Oner Bartov, a Zionist Genocide Scholar says it is Genocide.
Oh really? Maybe it was just an age thing. Either way, I am sorry to hear this news.
I'm sorry to hear that. Thank u for getting out in front of the story. I remember his testimony to congress when Dems were in charge and I do remember feeling as tho it seemed like he was struggling.
Where have you heard her SS detail afforded by the Fed had NOT ended? To me, if her team was saying, it wasn't nefarious - I tend to believe them. They'd have every reason to say otherwise.
You're entitled to your opinion. Go for it.
I agree with you. She'll be protected, of course. What I'm saying is her Team, apparently did not feel the termination of her SS was in bad faith. THEY said it...so this story feels manufactured in a certain respect. It is meant to enflame people because it suggests something nefarious.
Every VP gets 6 months post election of SS. Her's ended. Having said that Trump has done vindictive shit to Biden's kid, whereas Biden extended protection to Trump's kids. Not saying he's not vindictive, but, in this case it wasn't.
K
There has been reporting that her Team did not believe her removal of secret service WAS NOT done in bad faith. So, please, don't turn this into a distraction.
*worry*
Ugh...this story bugs me. It seems deliberately partisan, when it actually is not a big deal. Plus, not a good look for Kamala. She's fine - she'll be protected. How about we worty about issues that actually affect the majority of Americans.
Yes, yes! The dumb President wants power regardless and does not care if it sets off a gerrymandering war. By definition, meddling in elections mid-census is a bad idea. But, you know? Whatever.
Nice! Props to Naperville.
I did watch it!! She's fantastic!!
Again, why isn't the Israeli Government allowing food or journalists into Gaza? Why are so opposed to this label Tom?
Well this is a delicious (but predictable) story!! 😄
So true!
I truly TRULY hope you're right, but, I am skeptical because Elon has hoovered up all our data. Palantir is freightening. MAGA won't matter anymore if he's gone and these billionaires can see the Dark Enlightenment come to fruition.
Depends. If the billionaires want him in, I think he'll be fine. It might cause a MAGA revolt, but, money/power wins the day in this political environment.
Totally agree with your take on JD. But, it doesn't matter how we feel about him. Donors and backing win the day in politics.
No, but then we get Peter Theil's pick...Just Dance Vance. Much much worse
He's a media whore - to the point it annoys half of America. What could possibly be the reason he's not inviting in the Press? Is he meeting with Epstein (back from the dead)? JK
Something stinks! What is going on?
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “Keeping out the international media indicates that Israel’s leaders are trying to conceal the war’s full horror,” the editorial board writes.
Lol! Yep...it's like Ali Velshi and Molly are covering for everyone. Who are the actual anchors??
Ahhhhh.....duhhhhhh???!!! Who is just now learning these lessons about the President? Frankly, his moronic behavior is largely at the service of his tiny fragile ego. That's it. His "intelligence" is compromised by his deeply ingrained narcissism.
Yes, of course! I figured she's on maternity leave. My comment is more about Molly. All of the sudden she's everywhere on MSNBC.
Yup- predictable. Who would want to come here?
Btw- really need you back on MSNBC 😊 - Molly Jong Fast looks exhausted - she's literally on 24/7 - Morning Joe/Deadline/All-in...now the Weekend.
Also how do you know DC isn’t a crime-free zone? Because the president lives there
😄🤭 Well played @crampell.bsky.social
What happened to the "take care" clause of the Presidential oath? If every decision, every EO, (practically) has to be run up to SCOTUS, isn't that the opposite of "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed"? #impeach
Looking like dog-shit too.
I hate engaging in this discussion because it invites extreme responses from both sides of the argument. Q - what do you say to people like Cindy McCain who have seen the starvation and have spoken to what needs to be done? No journalists allow? We're supposed to assume Israel is doing "their best"
Just for the record, the discussion of Narcissism/PD of the President - has the opposite effect on me. It is the only frame for an accurate recounting, and to observe this President and no one wants to talk about it.
Thank you @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social for sounding the alarm on the AG issue - which largely has gone unreported by the media. It is good to hear how these pieces of legislation get funneled down to the states and how they play out.
He NEVER hides from the media/cameras.
Sick twisted immigration policy put forth by a snippy little B.

Keep fighting the good fight, Brian!!
What is John Kasich doing? He doesn't get it. We're beyond niceties - why don't try advising your own party? @politicsnation.bsky.social
#chalkcrime
Btw - getting my chalk supply ready to go over here in Chicago.
Ahhh!! Crime-spree in progress! #chalkcrime
Nice one! 😈🤘
😄
Thank you! That's what I said. It looks like she rolled out of bed, did some farm work and went straight to camera
LOL!
What's going on with the natural/cowgirl Nance? Were you just out milking some cows, or working the fields before this interview? More cosplay?
Lawyers for the children say they're still on planes in El Paso. SOOKNANAN: "I have the government attempting to remove minor children from the country in the wee hours of the morning on a holiday weekend. That's surprising." www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
ENSIGN says all 600 children in question are still in the United States, planes are grounded and will not leave while the judge's order is in place. He said it's possible one had taken off and was returned. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
Probably a little of both incompetence and deception. To me it illustrates how this Admin views the judiciary and the law.
And in Chicago
DEVELOPING: Advocates are seeking a court order to block the Trump administration’s effort to deport hundreds of unaccompanied minor children to Guatemala. Judge abruptly moved 3 pm hearing up to 12:30 after she was notified that some children “are in the process of being removed" today.
Israeli strikes killed at least 17 people in Gaza City on Saturday, Palestinian emergency workers said. The attacks came a day after Israel ended a policy of pausing attacks for several hours daily to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid.
Commentary: The case of Jamie Snow is a shocking example of how the criminal justice system in Bloomington was abused by the very authorities entrusted to uphold the law.
@timmiller.bsky.social Thoughts?
I pull those same moves in the mirror much to my cat mom's delight. 😄😻
I got arrested yesterday! (real drop off from being a corporate law firm associate five months ago. or upgrade.) I was blocking vehicles leaving from ICE’s Broadview, IL, staging ground and de facto detention center at 1930 Beach St. full statement (for now) below.
Today at the veterans sit in Washington, D.C.
💯💯💯
🎉🎉🎉 @thebulwark.com
Great! See if that provides any real protection.
🎯👀👇🏻
#ChalkCrime People are saying its out of control in D.C. 👇🏻
#chalkcrime please Ben! Super important to cover this beat. The chalk crimes or out of control on our city street! 😄
Correct! 💯
I do!
See...ugh..while I'm a democrat - and a Chicagoan, I'm not a fan of our Mayor. It's this weird thing in local politics where effective politicians in a majority state tend to be a little more centrist. Brandon has not performed well on the basics of running a city and it pains me to say that.

Right?! Both last night and tonight I was like "when are going to let Jen speak?" She was on with Scott Jennings for fuck's sake and got like 50 secs???
Probably in bed watching Fox News and getting ready to post his next cruel "truth" about coming my city where he and his troops are not wanted.
💯
Exactly! I only watch when someone like Jen is on and still, it disappoints!
It needs to stop! 👇🏻
It's a great question. I wish I had a better answer than, apparently many Americans are not paying attention, are not concerned with politics or actually like the racist, sexist, anti-expertise, and criminal behavior on full display by DJT.
The Smart Hot Takes Never Get Old @jessicatarlov.bsky.social
The Smart Hot Takes Never Get Old @jessicatarlov.bsky.social
Welp?
I hate this story.
Exactly - that's why she got like 30 secs on yesterday's show and today's show.
💯 I am disappointed that Jen didn't get more air time yesterday or today on Abbie's show.
Agreed - I am a little annoyed she gets like 30 seconds on CNN to speak. Suffering thru @vanjones68.bsky.social and the GOP fools to hear her speak a few mins isn't worth it
Run for something
Finally! She gets a chance to speak.
Ok @vanjones68.bsky.social You're same milk toast response.
@abbiephillips.bsky.social Let Jen speak! Good grief!
TRUMP IS AMERICA’S BIGGEST LOSER.
Lol!
Philly DA in the house! 👇🏻
