Ironic that Trump has spent the last decade blasting legitimate media organizations as 'fake news,' all while working hand-in-glove with actual purveyors of fake news, supermarket tabloids, to improve his political standing

4 years ago today, Trump during his one of his covid disaster-pressers made his infamous, bonkers statement about 'disinfectant' via 'injection inside' being a miracle cure. But here are a couple other moments from that event you may have forgotten. (šŸ§µ) twitter.com/atrupar/statusā€¦

So far, Pecker's testimony aligns snugly with what prosecutors promised the evidence would show during opening statements.

The prosecutionā€™s attempt to present their case through an election interference lens is starting to crystalize through Peckerā€™s testimony. Trumpā€™s intent to influence the outcome of the election is outlined pretty clearly here

This blatant lie from Trump showcases how insecure heā€™s feeling about the weak display of support from his base in NYC. He desperately wants big crowds outside the courthouse, but they simply donā€™t exist

Liz Cheney just said something deeply troubling: If SCOTUS delays immunity ruling, voters might be denied critical info about Trump's conduct while the mob raged, which Jack Smith has. That would reward Trump allies for their coverup.

Iā€™m on a Civil Rights Learning Tour with Common Power.

We coincidentally arrived in Selma on Confederate Memorial Day in Alabama. It felt like an act of defiance crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge today of all days.

This ā€œholidayā€ is emblematic of how much work we have to do.

'We should do a number of fact-checks' ā€“ MSNBC dips out of Trump's defensive remarks and spends two and a half minutes correcting the record

I think the 'imagine if Biden did X' stuff can easily get overblown, but given that age and physical stamina are supposedly one of the key differentiators in this campaign it is striking how little attention is paid to this.

'This is a plan to transform America into an autocracy.'

Donald Trump's allies have already put out their playbook for what he could do with a second term. Ruth Ben-Ghiat and Ahmed Baba join Stephanie Ruhle to pull back the curtain on Project 2025.

Iā€™ll be on MSNBCā€™s 11th Hour tonight for a conversation with Stephanie Ruhle and Ruth Ben-Ghiat about Project 2025 and its authoritarian agenda. The more we inform Americans about this threat to democracy, the better. Tune in at 11:40 pm ET šŸ™ŒšŸ¾
