    Illinois Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker urged Americans to “mobilize” against President Trump on Monday, a day after he delivered a fiery speech in New Hampshire calling for “disruption” and “mass protests.” “Let me be clear, we’re in a perilous moment in this country,” Pritzker said during an interview with MSNBC host Jen Psaki, when asked about what he was trying to convey in his speech at a New Hampshire Democratic Party dinner Sunday night. In his speech, which conservatives quickly blasted as “reckless,” the governor declared that Republicans “cannot know a moment of peace.” “They have to understand that we...

    A high-ranking city official in Oakland, California, has been fired over a resurfaced note that showed her referring to black people as “tokens,” according to reports. Chief of staff Leigh Hanson was fired Sunday over the alleged note, which was released last week alongside other documents related to an FBI probe that prompted the indictment of the city’s previous mayor, Sheng Thao, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. Hanson was hired by Thao as her chief of staff in 2023, and penned the note as part of her then-boss’s doomed bid to fight being recalled, KRON reported.

    Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that President Donald Trump was “violating the fundamental rights of people in order to punish them.” Partial transcript as follows: STEPHANOPOULOS: You saw Jon Karl’s piece about the president’s retribution campaign, he promised to be the retribution during the campaign. We’re seeing these moves against universities. We’re seeing these moves against law firms. You took the Senate floor to protest. What should these law firms and universities do? BOOKER: Well, first and foremost, you’re calling retribution, but it’s something far worse than that. If you look around the world, from...

    MSNBC contributor Claire McCaskill claimed Wednesday on “Morning Joe” that President Donald Trump was deporting people because he didn’t “like their opinion.” McCaskill said, “The underpinning for this whole thing is this idea that we’re at war with Venezuela, and therefore, these people need to be deported without due process, without the court’s involvement. Clearly, everybody in America wants violent criminals who are here illegally out of the country, end of discussion, full stop. So let’s do it according to our laws. It’s not that hard. It doesn’t have to take a lot of time.”

Despite longstanding claims that migrants are necessary to fill job positions, figures from Germany’s Federal Employment Agency (BA) have found that 33 per cent of long-term unemployed — those remaining jobless for over a year — people in the country last year did not hold German citizenship.

    CNBC host Andrew Ross Sorkin claimed Thursday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that travel to the United States was dropping because foreigners were saying they did not “like” the Trump administration’s policies. When asked about President Donald Trump’s tariffs, Sorkin said, “Look, I just think there is two things that we need to talk about this morning. One is just some historical perspective. I think we might have mentioned it on the broadcast before, but you go back to 1930, Smoot–Hawley those tariffs and then you look a year later, what happened to global trade. It dropped by 60%. That’s what...

    On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The Beat,” host Ari Melber argued that President Donald Trump stating that he would classify violence against Teslas or Tesla dealerships as domestic terrorism is him labeling “people who protest Tesla” domestic terrorists and saying, “We would not expect American judges to allow any sort of treatment of protesters as domestic terrorists because they go to a Tesla” dealership. Melber said, “[W]e see Trump trying to bend the government to help Musk, and it goes well beyond what you see just in these kind of sort of embarrassing efforts to hawk cars. If they’re great...

    During an interview with Boston Public Radio on Tuesday, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu stated that the city is releasing people wanted by ICE because “ICE is choosing not to go and get these criminal warrants.” And then claiming “so and so was extremely dangerous and a threat to the community. And yet, they’re not taking the action that reflects what they should be doing if they believed that to be true.” Wu stated, “[A]ny agency that gets a judicial warrant, a criminal warrant signed by a judge that has verified probable cause and has gone through that process in the...

    On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” Denver Mayor Mike Johnston stated that an incident where there was a suspected gang member who ICE said assaulted ICE agents after he was released from Denver’s custody is the first time he knows of that there’s been a problem with how the city interacts with ICE when they have people in custody that ICE wants access to and “If there are procedures we can adjust to make it safer, we’re open to that. But this has been a procedure that’s worked for a long, long time. We’ve never had an issue until this...

    Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) claimed Sunday on MSNBC’s “The Weekend” that some of his colleagues “have actually been talking about impeaching President Elon Musk.” Co-host Alicia Menendez said, “What’s interesting to me is the Nobody Elected Elon Musk Act that you and your colleagues are putting forward. It’s one of several pieces of legislation promoted by Democrats to try to hold Elon Musk accountable. Here’s the question, have any of your Republican colleagues showed any interest in joining you in this effort toward accountability?”
  • Trump Vowed to 'Immediately' Bring Down Egg Prices. His New Press Secretary Says Sudden Spike Is Biden's Fault

    Donald Trump made a campaign promise to "immediately bring prices down" on his first day in office. Instead, egg prices have spiked. During her first White House briefing, press secretary Karoline Leavitt blamed former President Joe Biden for hurting the egg supply and driving up costs. Egg prices are expected to continue rising due to a bird flu outbreak, which Biden's Department of Agriculture tried controlling early on by euthanizing infected chickens. Egg prices have risen in the short time since President Donald Trump took office — despite his campaign promise to "immediately bring prices down, starting on day one"...

    On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Denver Mayor Mike Johnston stated that the biggest issue with immigration “is not crime” and “The real question is, what do we do with the DREAMers who are here and have been here for 10 or 20 years? What do we do with folks who came in and played by the rules and are waiting on their day in court as asylum seekers or TPS recipients? We want to make sure those populations get their fair day in court and make their case. And those folks who are right now on the job...

I don’t know how you determine a criminal simply by looking at them or somebody that’s undocumented simply by looking at them, particularly in a place like Newark, New Jersey, where there’s high levels of diversity, of people from different parts of the world here.” Baraka stated, “Well, so three undocumented folks were detained, taken away by [ICE].

Congress, of course, passed a bill to address the border. Some of your Democratic colleagues from border states actually signed on. This is the Laken Riley Act, a bill, just so folks understand, that would effectively allow law enforcement to detain and deport those who have been convicted of theft-related crimes. in a statement explaining his vote your...

    Chicago residents are voicing frustration with Mayor Brandon Johnson’s commitment to shielding the city’s undocumented migrant population from federal immigration crackdowns, citing concerns about community safety and strained resources. This comes as border czar Tom Homan declared that Chicago would be "ground zero" for immigration enforcement under President Donald Trump’s mass deportation plans. Mayor Johnson has doubled down on his opposition, vowing to uphold Chicago’s sanctuary city policies. "I find it unconscionable that this administration would attempt to create not just division but fear within our public schools," Johnson said, referring to potential federal raids. He directed city departments to...
