If our Christianity causes us to defend the president rather than the poor, the powerless, the sick, the hungry, the homeless, and the immigrant, that’s when we know we are following someone other than Jesus.

PA Dems deliver brutal rejection: Not one Pennsylvania House Democrat will back John Fetterman for reelection as a Democrat. His tRump flirtations, Fox appearances, and betrayals on key issues burned every bridge. His own party sees him as a betrayer.

Rachel Maddow just played this video of Jon Ossoff talking about Trump crime family grifter Jared Kushner. Ossoff is Maddow's guest tonight. 🙌💪👏✊️👇

Cartoon Of The Day
It's Time to Drag Pete Hegseth's Bigoted Pastor and Expose Trump's Failed Iran War
Pete Hegseth believes he's on a mission from God and supports an American Crusade. His pastor, Doug Wilson, demands Christian domination. Well, I would like to retort.

Inviting Trump to speak at the White House Correspondents Dinner is like inviting a food critic who only reviews arson.
Turns out the phrase “America First” is preceded by the words “Sell Out.”

Reality Check Break
Shoutout to BBC for finally reporting on trump's insider trading after literally everybody else on social media.
Democracy Docket is not sponsoring a party to celebrate Donald Trump. It won't send people to a dinner in his honor.
If you are looking for both sides coverage, look elsewhere. If you want pro-democracy news, information and analysis that is fiercely independent, subscribe now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz
trump wants to investigate everything except his assassination attempt.
tRump throws a meltdown over his record-low 32% approval, calling polls “fake news” and “rigged” like 2020. Even his base is rejecting the Iran war chaos, death, and price spikes. This is what happens when ego starts wars America never wanted.

With the leak to the NYT of their internal notes to each other, I hope the conservative justices on SCOTUS are currently *very* paranoid about talking to each other. Because at least one of them is (or has staff who is) indiscreet and disloyal.
Keep looking over your shoulders, fascists!
Ben Collins is on with Maddow to talk about his takeover of Infowars!
MSNBC really let a true gem go. I love Ben Collins insight, humor and great reporting.
Accountability
There is none for the Trump cabinet-so guys like Kash Patel are running around like frat boys gone wild
On America’s dime
At the expense of America’s safety
Virginia can help restore accountability
Tomorrow
By voting to YES on the redistricting amendment

A poll he doesn’t like: “It’s a rigged poll.”
An election he loses: “The election was rigged. It was stolen.”
A court ruling that goes against him: “The entire process was rigged. Judge was unfair to me.”
Media coverage he doesn’t like: “Fake news. I’ll sue em.”
What a weak, pathetic, coward.
No news network with any integrity should go to this dinner. Period. Fuck your limpdick pocket squares. The real protest would be an empty room. #maddow
Strategically, Ukraine has a theory of victory that looks increasingly plausible, while Russia’s is crumbling.
Paula White comparing the president to Jesus was met with applause.
The Pope calling for peace and ending the war was met with condemnation.
Beware of any Christian movement that measures loyalty to God by loyalty to the president.
Kushner is fleecing the world while tens of thousands die.
This was such an early and corrupt unconstitutional executive order. Jared is the Nepo Negotiator and Chief Grifter. Follow his money.

Dismantling Voice of America was one of the most devastating things I’ve witnessed. VOA wasn’t propaganda, it was proof that free press could criticize its own leaders and still survive. And now we’re throwing away one of our greatest tools of freedom.
This Saturday may be the most embarrassing moment in the history of the White House press corps. I’ll be talking about this all week. Here are my thoughts today. Full show: open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...
The person negotiating in the Middle East on behalf of the United States does not technically work for the United States.
Maddow: "Do we think our servicemen and women are in good hands? Do we think that there is care being taken in terms of what they're risking their lives for?"
Map of US with states highlighted that allow voting in primary elections at 17 if they will be 18 by Nov General election: WA, UT, NM, NE, IA, IL, IN, MS, OH, KY, WV, VA, NC, SC, VT, ME, MA, RI, CT, NJ, DE, DC
Parents in VA, if your 17 year old child will be 18 by the Nov 3rd general election, they can vote YES in the April 21st redestricting referendum. It's not too late - Virginia has same-day voter registration.

There should be a better mechanism for getting rid of a dangerous, traitorous president, before it’s too late.
