The fact that my 75 year-old Asian mom has two shots of the Moderna vaccine in her arm makes me want to cry. The fact that my 75 year-old Asian mom no longer feels safe walking down the street by herself also makes me want to cry. #America

- Trump valued Mar A Lago at $739 million — the real value is closer to $75 million. He bought his Jupiter golf course for $5 mill — the next year he valued it at $62 million. A markup of 1,100%. Just wow
- This secret recording of @SenatorBurr suggests some in the GOP fully grasped how serious COVID 19 would be, but refused to say so publicly -- putting American lives at risk to maintain allegiance to the Trump WH:
- I cannot imagine any other president in modern American history who would not have sought to address the nation as a deadly virus killed 100,000 of its people.
- On the same day that a man attempts to kill the Speaker of the House, a judge in Arizona has ruled that armed citizens can show up to *monitor* ballot boxes as part of their "constitutional rights." This is how democracy ends.
- I am absolutely thrilled and honored and generally upside down with excitement to come back home to @MSNBC to host the 9PM hour, beginning August 16th. LET'S DO THIS
- Delta CEO defends choice to end NRA partnership in the wake of Georgia legislature killing the company's coveted tax break: "Our decision was not made for economic gain and our values are not for sale."
- This “female journalist” is very excited!Showtime’s ‘The Circus’ to replace Mark Halperin with female journalist hill.cm/4DKnAAH
- After Brown v Board of Ed, White Mississippians left Jackson, rather than have their children attend school w Black children. Black families were left behind & the tax base necessary for infrastructure improvements + repairs was decimated. This water crisis = the legacy of racism
- Put your name on the hotel. Put your name on the golf course. Put your name on the steaks. Put your name on the checks. And put your name on the pandemic.
- If Loeffler and Burr are forced to resign, McConnell is going to have to defend seats in GA and NC in an election year that is shaping up to be... fairly treacherous.
- Whoa: @AdamSchiffCA says that Dems on the House Intel Committee wanted to bring Maria Butina and Paul Erickson in for questioning — but were told not to by House Republicans, who were worried about “tarnishing” the NRA and President Trump.
- Kimberly Guilfoyle was uh married to the current Democratic governor of California. There are a lot of *layers* here
- I’M COMIN HOME!Seasoned journalist @alexwagner makes her return to @MSNBC as a Senior Political Analyst and Guest Anchor. In her new role, she’ll appear across MSNBC to weigh in on the news driving headlines in Washington and around the country.
