Legendary #Maddow: "Active duty U.S. soldiers [thanks to #Trump EO] now have the authority to arrest and search people...on U.S. soil...Brennan Center is calling this a slippery slope, saying if soldiers are allowed to take domestic policing roles at the border, it may become easier to justify uses of the #military in the U.S. interior in the future. Our nation's founders warned against the dangers of an army turned inward."

Brief mention on the #Maddow of a protest in #charlottesville over the recent disappearance of two local house painters from the lovely historic courthouse by large anonymous men. I think I talked to them once, they were very funny. They sang Mexican ballads while they worked. https://youtu.be/D5WpL760XNI #cville #ice

#actblue CEO Jones said just now on #Maddow that this "escalation" - the EO targeting them - is something that she "would not say is something that we were expecting" and that is one of the most exasperating and enraging things I have heard recently
This interview is making it sound like they really weren't prepared for this/didn't see it coming, and if so tthat is mind-blowing. I sure hope I am just hearing things wrong because wtf.

Rachel Maddow shares Wall Street Journal reporting on how countries and individuals who want favors from the United States government are seeking to secure those favors by spending money in a way that benefits Trump family business interests.

BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow "A couple of years ago, DOJ accused an online #cryptocurrency company called #Binance of being basically, a supermarket for CRIME...a giant money laundering hub for terrorists and cyber criminals...at an #AbuDhabi crypto conference last December, weeks before the inauguration...[Binance's founder] Zhao mingled with #Trump son Eric..."

BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: "[President] #DonaldTrump nominee to lead the #IRS is...Just this week, two Democratic Senators on the finance committee, wrote to the IRS asking the agency to open a CRIMINAL investigation into a handful of companies that they say, have been selling tax credits that don't actually exist...Trump's choice to run the IRS has DIRECT financial ties to some of the companies implicated in this alleged scheme..."

#Maddow asked Sen Warner about Hegseth's latest f'up & what Senators Wicker, Ernst & Tillis think about #PeteHegseth now.

@emptywheel says they're responsible for this, since they voted to confirm him.
@nicolesandler & Marcy talked about how we need to make the GOP Senators OWN their votes.

If you are still on X, you might want to AT them & ask if they still support #WhiskeyPete

#maddow
explains that a #DOGE whistleblower alleges they grabbed sensitive NLRB info and access and left the door open as #Russians immediately attempted to access it with new passwords…. Then threatened him when he tried to sound the alarm

'Criminal contempt' looms over Trump's showdown with courts over deportation fiat #Maddow

@marjolica @dangillmor

#thomhartmann reported that all #socialsecurity help and all of SS staff were told they _must_ use #X #shitter for info. This was also reported by #Maddow

So #Maddow, #DOGE is breaking the government, leaking information, & hurting people. Who'll prosecute?

Jeff Hauser said to @nicolesandler that DOGE should own the consequences of their harm.

https://therevolvingdoorproject.org/dogewatch/ lists their harm. @emptywheel has a list debunking DOGE lies.

CEOs know DOGE can wreck their companies but are afraid of saying it publicly. Our protests give them cover "The SHAREHOLDERS want DOGE out of computer systems.”

People dying SHOULD be enough to get the DOGE boys removed, but sadly we'll have to wait until a massive financial crisis–for those in power–accompany the deaths.

h/t to @emptywheel for her snappy, potty-mouthed quote about #ElonMusk
@lolgop @GottaLaff
@nicolesandler

"Because a missed check for some people is a death sentence... when this catastrophic failure happens, and I believe it will, there's no indication that they're trying to fix things, just accelerate it.
73 million people rely on Social Security. Imagine the chaos that will come when those checks don't go out.
Rachel, it is going to be a scenario that's hard to imagine how catastrophic it will be." @alaw202 on #Maddow

There are very few journalists who really inform Americans, #Maddow #Melber, few others
(they won't last long)
Information networks are 'aligned' to #Trump 'administration' propaganda.
Some pretend to be still 'objective' by giving small news that can embarrass the Gov.
(to keep oudience)
Really serious events, certain acts of Trump are NOT underlined as they should.

It is still surprising the easy with which many #Americans embraced fascism.

@alaw202 great on #Maddow tonight about how to
contact your Reps & prepare for a disruption.
Info on how to do it here: https://digbysblog.net/2025/03/26/make-touching-social-security-deadly-again-spocko-bsky-social/

He talked to @nicolesandler about this 2 weeks ago I called my Rep at the time.

Kristi Noem HHS / Border Patrol action figure comes with all you see here!

Corey "Chief Of Staff" Lewandowski sold seperately!

#Maddow covered the #HandsOff protests across the country Saturday, showing hundreds of great signs.

Take note #RWNJs: I only saw ONE misspelled sign.
