Violent crime is plunging. Biden bankrolled police/lowered tensions between cops & communities. But Trump is still gaining traction on 'lawlessness.'

It's the same political dynamic as on the economy: Voters don't feel like it's getting any better.

Justice Sotomayor using her annual pre-June public talk to give a barely veiled warning that the Supreme Court is about to do some truly terrible things nytimes.com/2024/05/24/us/…

This is my mom.

She was an asylum seeker.
She slept in a church b/c she had nowhere else to go.
She is a housekeeper & a waitress.
She is my hero.

I'm really glad that vice presidential candidate, Nicole Shanahan, tweeted this because it gives me a chance to talk about how reporting is done. This is called a 'no surprises' letter and was my final attempt (after a half dozen interview requests and questions to the RFK

Last night, Dr. Samer Attar, who spent two weeks providing care in Northern Gaza said he already had multiple patients starve to death. This was a few weeks ago.

American surgeon Dr. Samer Attar tells Chris Hayes about his two weeks in Gaza: “It's just an apocalyptic landscape of rubble, and hunger, homelessness, bombardment. Every day we were doing amputations. Every day we were seeing people show up starving to death. We see folks—moms

Ohio passed clean extensions to the certification deadline for both Obama and Romney in 2012 and for Trump in 2020. Rather than doing that now to get Biden on the ballot, Gov. DeWine and Matt Huffman are playing partisan games to undermine the initiative process. It’s despicable.

On the latest episode of “WITHpod 2024: The Stakes,” Chris Hayes
is joined by David Roberts to compare the presidential records of Joe Biden and Donald Trump on climate change.

“I just can’t fathom it. I don’t know what to think about it other than it’s just horrible judgement,” says George Conway on Justice Alito flying Jan. 6-linked flags.

Tickets for the trial will be $100 + $274 in fees.

Alito flying those flags 'suggests a disturbing readiness to keep pushing past any boundaries as the movement that Alito is clearly a member of looks to destroy the current American constitutional order,' says Chris Hayes.

I often argue that much of what happens at the border today boils down to resources, not policy. So I pulled together a new chart which I think bears that out.

When you look at enforcement actions taken against migrants over the last decade, structural limitations begin to show.

Always enjoy when Trumpers find my business, giving me the opportunity to introduce more people to Rakkasan Tea Company, a veteran-owned company that promotes peace and economic development by importing premium tea solely from small farms in current war zones and post-conflict countries

My big hope is that the Westerchester/Long Island folks there tonight can appreciate how welcoming and wonderful the Bronx is!

Truly do not have the words to describe how disgusting this is. My god.

The truth is we should already have or be close to a verdict in the January 6th federal case, which was set to begin in early March

With that trial estimated to last 8-12 weeks, it'd most likely be done or wrapping up now

But SCOTUS is delaying the administration of justice

Today marks:

28 days after arguments in the appeal of the D.C. Circuit's unanimous decision rejecting Trump's extreme immunity claims

101 days since Trump appealed

164 days since DOJ originally asked SCOTUS to take up the case

There is no excuse

That post is truly appalling. Has the White House press corps taken notice that Trump is in cahoots with Putin to keep a journalism colleague held hostage through the election?

Justice Thomas' opinion in Alexander calls on the Supreme Court to overturn the entire line of redistricting precedents, including Baker v. Carr, that established the principle of 'one person, one vote.' He argues that federal courts never have authority to redraw districts.

I figured the Supreme Court's Alexander would be bad. But it's so much worse than I expected. Alito loaded his majority opinion with traps to make it nearly impossible for any plaintiff to prove racial gerrymandering in court. A full-on gutting of the equal protection clause.
