To republican members of Congress (and other Republicans): you realize this includes you, right? “Trump is claiming the power to ignore…the U.S. Constitution, declare someone a criminal, kidnap them, send them to a third country, and claim that there is no way to get [them] back.”

Hurricane Helene devastated western NC - we are still recovering, and will be for years to come. Because we knew it was coming, schools and many businesses were closed, leaving roads clear so rescuers could do their jobs. Imagine how many more lives would have been lost without prior warning.

Losing NOAA would be devastating. Project 2025 authors want to get rid of it because it monitors climate change, and privatize the information it currently provides for free, so you'll have to buy information about the weather and the winds (imperative for mariners).

How odd that when Trump announced his “deal” with Mexico he failed to mention that the US committed to halting the flow of assault weapons from the US to Mexico. Why did he leave that out?

FACTS! - It IS a distraction. - Musk DID pressure the top FAA official to resign. - Musk's pressure was for his PERSONAL business interests. - Though it may not have stopped the crash, Trump's distraction IS divisive, despicable, AND disgraceful.

Trump FROZE all hiring for FAA Flight Tower Controls, making our airports less safe. THIS is what happens when you put PROFITS OVER PEOPLE. No head of FAA either because Musk said it was too expensive. This isn't Twitter, this is our lives! Trump should be charged with 64 counts of manslaughter.

Russell Vought is the Project 2025 author that Trump wants to run OMB. He also supports the illegal practice of impoundment — which Trump tried to use yesterday. If Democrats want to be an actual opposition party, they'll do everything in their power to fight his nomination.

NEW: Fox News reports that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is revoking General Mark Milley’s security clearance and security detail. A review will determine if Milley should be demoted in retirement for 'undermining' Trump. Milley’s Army portrait will also be removed tonight.

"[B]irth control has been in conservatives’ crosshairs for years. And while Trump’s administration will undoubtedly attack it, he’ll likely have additional help from his appointees to the Supreme Court."

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

BREAKING —CDC officially ordered by Trump White House to cease working with the WHO effective immediately. This is the first time in almost 77 years since WHO’s founding after World War 2. This is a very dark day, and puts us all at risk (except billionaires).

Tillis was more afraid of a primary than an inexperienced, amoral man leading the world’s biggest military. What an abject coward. My God.

The Hegseth confirmation shows that Republican lawmakers have put party over country. They should be ashamed, but I doubt if they are.

Besides having disdain for women, hatred for Muslims, problems with alcohol, over the top Christian Nationalism, inability to answer questions without deflection, general lack of experience, history of financial mismanagement, poor people skills, and Nazi-themed tattoos, Hegseth is a Fox News host.
