@maddow.bsky.social Has anyone noticed that one of the 54 on the Cornell snapchat is named Jack Tapper? Jake Tapper has a son Jack who is a Cornell graduate, computer engineering degree Tapper interviewed Jane Doe's lawyer this morning. If true isn't this a conflict of interest? needs reporting!

As an expert on this topic, I know of no cases anywhere in which AI was key to preventing a school shooting. In fact, I am 605% sure this is another instance of Kash Patel spouting BS stats on Fox News. (Maybe he should just chug a beer on air? As Trump’s former press sec tries to look serious?) 🤡🤡

How on EARTH does anyone believe a single thing he says any more? It would be comical if it weren't so infuriating.

This is set up for laughs, but it’s actually one of the best demonstrations I’ve seen of how being capable of producing convincing sounding language and understanding meaning are two completely different things. A chatbot does not understand you, it just has automated responses based on your words.

Hey @maddow.bsky.social loved your segment on Fishers IN but you need to know that Fishers is not rural; it is an upper middle class suburb of Indianapolis. Which makes it equally awesome that the protesters came out.

@cnn @cnnnewsource.bsky.social One of your guests said that Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro were prosecuted and jailed for their congressional testimony. That is false. They DIDN’T SHOW UP after being subpoenaed.

@cnn.com PLEAsE fire Scott Jennings. I had on your primary show until he opened his mouth, so obnoxious. I'll be watching @MSNOWnews for the rest of the night.

Who's gonna tell him, yes stupidity MAY bring LOSING and DEATH.

@cnn.com Fire Scott Jennings

@cnn.com Why do you have Scott Jennings on? I changed the channel every time, watching MSNOW, now.

@cnn why do you have Scott Jennings on? I changed the channel when he shows up. Watching MSNOW, now.

to hear Trump tell it, American elections were completely corrupted while he was president and he was helpless to stop it, then they were cleaned up by Biden ahead of Trump's victory in 2024, and now that Trump is president again they are once again becoming third world caliber

An agent from HSI—the criminal investigation arm of ICE—shot and killed a young man in May while responding to a local 911 call as part of Trump’s ‘Memphis Safe Task Force.’ The call had nothing to do with immigration. Jonah Neal. Say his name.

@billbrowder.bsky.social wow just watching your son Alexander on MS NOW. He’s amazing and you must be so proud! I have read your books and been informed and inspired by them.

I'm glad that Graham Platner is out. But it is so disturbing to contemplate that the man who was *twice* elected president makes Platner look like an amateur when it comes to serial sexual assaults.

It’s worth mentioning in every news story that this deal is substantially worse for the US, and far more lucrative for Iran, than the Obama nuclear deal Trump blew up almost a decade ago.

@cnn.com please remind Elliott Williams that John Mitchell was Richard Nixon's private attorney before Nixon made him AG. Look how well that turned out!

Sorry @cnn.com I watched Anderson, good coverage, but once Kaitlin came on with Scott Jennings I’m off to msnow.

Trump's frequent trips to Walter Reed raise new questions about Joe Biden's health.

Gas in Michigan went from 4.19 to 4.99 in two days.

It should go without saying that, just because some bad people want to criminally do harm to other bad people, that does not mean that any of the bad people are not, in fact, bad people.

@masnick.com I am reading David Enrich’s Murder the Truth. Just finished Chapter 6, on what you went through. Thank you for surviving!

Big 10 rules in basketball! UCLA women and UMich men!

The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017 to 2025. The top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets — more than the G.D.P. of the United States and China combined. Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

Sadly, an angry ex has long been a common cause of deportation/family separation, which DHS encourages when promoting the ICE Tip Line on social media. Abusers, employers, and landlords also use it as a threat or a get out of jail free card for domestic violence or when workers get hurt on the job.

it's insane that my country's current position is that, if we don't like the leader of a sovereign nation, not only do we get to kill them we get to pick their successor

I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them. I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.

Tulsi Gabbard released a fundraising video in 2019 titled "Trump's Path To War With Iran" "We've gotta stop Donald Trump from starting a war with Iran."

Can confirm.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison. Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water. Our priorities are so fucked.

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

It was probably difficult to foresee that Trump would put the Kennedy Center out of business.

It’s pretty fucking wild that the DOJ is releasing files that include accusations that the President of the United States raped underage girls, to distract from the fact that the DOJ is covering up murders of US citizens by their own government.

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE. They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot. "They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets." "They had the professional demeanor of criminals." ht: @paulgraham.bsky.social

Just over the past 72 days, two non-white Democratic members of Congress have been attacked, one of them by a Trump supporter who threatened him with deportation. Does JD Vance have anything to say? After all, the GOP VP is always so keen to attack "left-wing" political violence.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

Local news always the best. www.fox9.com/live

Cripes a’mighty people, Steven Miller is not staging a militarized ethnic cleansing and sending the border cops to murder people in the street to distract from the Epstein files. He’s doing it because he and Trump (and Vance and Homan and Noem etc) really really want to.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

If you beat up and injure a cop at the Capitol the Trump admin will pardon you. If you drive away from an ICE agent they will kill you.

Border patrol was explicitly ordered by a judge 10 years ago not to stand in front of a vehicles because they were using the possibility of getting hit by a car as justification for deadly force
