@maddow.msnbc.com Sorry, if you're out, I'm out. I simply can't watch Jen Psaki. (She may be a friend and colleague of yours, but she not only can't hold a candle, she just comes off forced.) Will watch you Mondays.

@maddow.msnbc.com So....are you out after the 100 day mark, or staying put?
@maddow.msnbc.com Liz Cheney calls out the Dems for not doing anything....and offers them suggestions... www.facebook.com/share/p/18SP...
@msnbc.com listen, Jen Psaki is no Rachel Maddow, so having her "act out" the discussion between Trump and Kristen Welker about Trump running for a 3rd term was a fail. Jen Psaki ALWAYS sounds like she's reading off the prompter. Not a natural at all. And she's the one who got a new podcast?! Jeez.
@maddow.msnbc.com All of the massive firings & retirings are all due to Elon's strategy for growth. In an interview (I forget where) he'd said he tears things apart then sees what's absolutely essential, reinstates that & tosses the rest, streamlining for efficiency. OK for tech, not for people.
@neapresident.bsky.social saw you on Katy Tur Q: WHY student outcomes are so poor? You said it's directly tied to the resources that reach students. Tons of $ (taxes, fed & state aid) is put into schools. But, admin & overhead drain $. That's never addressed. Blame mismanagement, not lack of $.
@schumer.senate.gov You sir, are feckless. According to Indivisible, 91% (you hear that?!?!) of Indivisible chapters want you to step down. You can either step diwn or get the heave-ho...up to you. Either way, we're done with you. We want young, hungry, tech-savvy, non-wealthy fighters on our side.
To think that in Chris Hayes tonight you tried to claim you're "hammering away" at Trump. When asked how, all you said was what we already know! That Trump's taking from the middle class to give to billionaires. And strategic voting?!?! Are you kidding?!?! And you don't think there's a crisis yet?!?
@maddow.msnbc.com Tonight you asked Rep. Maxine Dexter of Oregon. if her constituents are articulating what they want her to do or aren't sure what should be done except "something". She gave a non-answer & you let her get away w/that. Come on! Press politicians to answer-specifically!
@maddow.msnbc.com Re: your guest, Frank Kendall, former airforce secretary, you asked, as 2nd part of a 2 pt question, what he felt the appropriate response should be to the rogue admin, but he only answered your 1st question, not this part. Why didn't you press him?! People want astute guidance!!
@maddow.msnbc.com Re: those fired at the National Nuclear Security Admin, how can the Trump admin not find them? They sent them emails, so they've got their names & they must have their original hiring documents(w/contact info). Or, just contact the IRS, they'll know how to find them! Ridiculous.
@michaelsteele.bsky.social On The Reid Out you brought up workers' costs related to returning to offices:Travel costs,childcare,lunch costs. You'd think businesses would want to reduce office rental overhead, but keeping folks poorer makes them more dependent/controlable less able to rise up.
@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com per your show tonight...possibly Musk was referring to Nancy Pelosi? ...making millions of dollars "on a govt salary" (alluding to her insider trading where she's gained the most of any of the representatives, etc in the stock market.)
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social We need leadership and organization to be able to stop this takeover.

@maddow.msnbc.com your guest, Joe Neguse said "I think most Americans agree that our immigration system is broken and merrits working together in a bipartisan way to protect dreamers, to address immigration in a holistic, comprehensive way." Where's he & Dems been?? It's been broken for decades!
@maddow.msnbc.com PLEASE talk to the powers that be at MSNBC, since you carry such weight w/them, about the need to STOP making everything about Trump and the Republicans- it didn't help us over 4 yrs-he's in AGAIN. Move on! PLEASE focus on what DEMS can & need to do to regain control & fix things!
@insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com MSNBC has to stop focusing on Trump and start focusing on constituents and what the party CAN DO to right the ship - empower them to take back control. The bashing of the other side does nothing to help our side. Let's DO something! (In the words of Michele Obama)
@marcelias.bsky.social What are your thoughts about the non-profit Represent Us? Do you feel people need to surge support for this or other similar organizations in order to attempt to give power to everyday Americans? (Esp. before the new administration goes after non-profits it doesn't like?)
@ayman.msnbc.com saw your quest Aisha Mills tonight saying how the dems made the mistake of "not knowing people use tiktok for news, info, and learning" Ummm...she left out the BIGGEST part..they EARN $$ on it! The fact dems didn't know that, shows how out of touch they are w/constituents.
@chrislhayes.bsky.social Sen. Ron Wyden, said: dems a/o tomorrow (why not last 4yrs?) are gonna be "all in" w/chutzpah talking about "bills" so working people know we're on their side & the tax code is rigged & they "have to depend upon us to get them a fair shake"-sounds like he wants job security.

"Pete Hegseth: The Short Course – 13 Steps to National Destruction" snyder.substack.com/p/pete-hegse...
@marcelias.bsky.social Represent Us, around since 2012? That organization is an effort to change federal laws by working at the state level first & creating a wave of change that triggers revision of federal laws. We need to do this to turn things around. See video: www.facebook.com/share/v/12HT...
@stephruhle.bsky.social your guest Dr. Michael Mann discussing our addiction to burning fossil fuels - we're never gonna get completely away from fossil fuels because they're used in sooo many industries, not just vehicles. Sadly.
@adrienneelrod.bsky.social Adrienne, saw you on Morning Joe today & you tripped over your words trying to say "we need to meet people where THEY are" & instead, said "...meet people where WE are" - Freudian slip, that you corrected, but other dems keep doing this too. Reveals their true thoughts!
@maddow.bsky.social Jen Psaki covering for you, had Jon Favreau on & he said the Dems lost working class voters & need to win back non-college educated, but he thinks it's about persuading them/strategizing. WRONG It's about meeting their needs, not convincing them to buy into the party's thinking.
@thereidout.bsky.social Msg for producers - the snarky commentary w/forced laughter is like mocking our unfortunate political situation when it requires serious minds. Interesting you don't like the other side smirking over Jordan Neely. Dems lost. Time to try being serious. We need to right things.
@abc7.bsky.social When Trump is going after the media saying they lie and report falsehoods, why would you script for your host, or allow your host to mis-speak and say Trump was liable for rape when it was sexual abuse? Legal issues should be worded carefully. $16 mil lesson. Don't help his msg!
@repjayapal.bsky.social On Alex Wagner, you said Dems should reject Super PAC $ & rely on grassroots donors. As a donor, I'm angry w/the performance of the party in this EXISTENTIAL election. There was no real focus on & fight for the working class. Dems blew it! I don't fund failure. Need new reps
@chrislhayes.bsky.social Tonight, Aymen filled in and said Hegseth was either lying when he stated there should be no women in combat in the military, or lying now, as he claimed he was misunderstood. No. Aymen misunderstood. Hegseth was clarifying combat vs any non-combat position.
@jonathancapehart.bsky.social Per tonight's Lawrence O'Donnell show - after the confirmation hearings for supreme court justices Kavanaugh & Barrett, who lied about taking action against Roe v Wade, why should anyone think the grilling of Hegseth would be of any consequence? It's all a show.
@raskin.house.gov Per you on Alex Wagner tonight-No, you don't need to message better what the dems are "standing for", you all need to LISTEN better to us about what WE want our "Reps" to stand for. Dems failed. Joe's ego, then shoving Kamala at us, & no focus on OUR needs. We'll be cleaning house.
@repjasmine.bsky.social So, as you just mentioned on Deadline: White House, the IRS feels some of these big fish have taxes that are too complicated to go after? Here's a suggestion...get the IRS out of the dark ages. Update the IRS with AI to handle such accounts. That'd surely simplify things!
@chrismurphyct.bsky.social There's NOT ONE person I've ever met in person or online who hasn't agreed that Citizens United must go! Start there. Corporations & oligarchs running this country couldn't care less about We The People except to squeeze $ from us. Time for the US to start benefitting US
@chrismurphyct.bsky.social Saw you on Katy Tur today. Why, AFTER an existential election, are dems suddenly aware the people didn't want the status quo? You're ALL out of touch (except Bernie). NOW, dems think some GOP ideas like cutting spending might be good? What have you all been doing for US?!
You are up to date.
