#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “In Surprise Arizona…you’re going to think I’m making this up, but I’m not making this up. The people in Surprise, Arizona who are fighting the potential Trump prison camp they want to put there. Those folks are SO ANNOYED with their city council not helping them stop this thing, that those local residents are now advancing an effort to literally DISSOLVE THE CITY of Surprise, Arizona, to unincorporate the city specifically so there won’t be a city council anymore, so the city council won’t be in their way as they continue to fight the Trump prison camp and therefore they can fight this thing harder.” 😳😂

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “It was supposed to open Friday, it is not open because Trump says he does not want it open. When this bridge does open some day, if Trump ever lets it open, you should know that there is a competing bridge a little way down the river, a privately-owned very old very congested toll bridge that will likely LOSE some of its traffic…because of competition. It will lose some of its traffic to this pretty, brand new bridge that has just been built. The family that operates the competing old bridge, earlier this year, made a $1 million donation to Donald Trump’s super pac. In short order, a member of that family then got an in person meeting with Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. The White House and the pac say that was just a coincidence…but after the million dollar donation, he gets this meeting, and then the SAME day of the meeting, Howard Lutnick calls President Donald Trump and then Trump suddenly discovers new supposedly trade-related reasons why he’s now suddenly against this bridge, even though previously he has been for it.” 🤦♀️

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “I sort of can’t believe this story but here we go. March 5th…a New Jersey Republican Congressman named Tom Kean appeared on the House floor to take a vote. March 5th. He has not been seen since. Tom Kean has not been seen in public in the last 95 days.He released a statement in April saying he’s been dealing with a personal medical issue. Last week he followed that up with another written statement saying he will be back ‘within a matter of weeks’, but I’ll say we are now well into June, STILL nobody has seen him. We certainly hope Congressman Kean is okay…but that said, in the meantime, there’s kind of a Weekend at Bernie’s thing going on with the missing congressman, at least if you look online.” 😳

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “Before the White House said anything about it, we learned this weekend from a Kremlin announcement, that Donald Trump apparently had an HOUR AND A HALF long call with Vladimir Putin this weekend. That’s apparently how the President of the United States celebrated the 250th anniversary of the founding of our country. He had a long, undisclosed, secret phone call with a foreign dictator he has weird slavish devotion to, and who helped him get elected to the White House in the first place. Again, it was the Kremlin that reported first on the existence of the call. After the Kremlin reported that the call had happened, not the White House, we had to hear it from Russia, Trump was then asked about it by reporters and he did then admit today that he’d had the call with Putin right before heading off to NATO. Huh, who called who?”🤦♀️

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “The president is apparently planning some kind of prime time speech on Thursday to talk, again, about how wrong it is, what a scandal it is, that he lost the 2020 election, his desperation ramping up on this subject. In recent days his effort to subpoena information about election workers in Fulton County Georgia in 2020 was thrown out in court. He’s now taken hundreds of FBI personnel and taken them off whatever else they were working on, to assign them instead to work in Fulton County Georgia on something. We don’t know what exactly that something is, but it’s apparently required them to push out the special agent in charge at the FBI field office in Atlanta, and now at least two FBI intelligence analysts, who refused to be part of these reindeer games and had to be fired so that they could go forward. Trump’s DOJ within the past week has now threatened in writing, to jail all the senior elected election officials in all the states. On top of all that, he’s now fired everyone on the federal Election Assistance Commission which helps states with election security and certifies voting machines.” 🙄

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “Hey, remember this little guy? His name is Greg Bovino. He led Donald Trump’s chaotic, violent, inept paramilitary invasions of multiple U.S. cities until he was fired a couple of months ago. Mr Bovino has been spending his retirement lamenting that he was not able to achieve his personal dream of deporting nearly A THIRD of the U.S. population. He’s also posted photos like this one on social media [Hitler salute]. He posted that photo just before jetting off to a White supremacist conference in Portugal this weekend. He was the special guest at a gathering of European far far far right politicians and activists who advocate for making Europe more White.”😳

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “I will just note that the Tulsa Oklahoma chapter of Indivisible, marked Independence Day this weekend by spelling out 2 5 4 7…as in use the 25th amendment to declare Trump unfit and incompetent and remove him from office. They did that in 96 degree heat this weekend.”😳

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “…former Secretary…Kristi Noem, according to the WSJ, has been REFUSING to leave the waterfront home reserved for the Coast Guard Commandant which she TOOK OVER for herself. She’s refusing to leave it reportedly even though she hasn’t been DHS Secretary for weeks now, since she was fired last month.”🤦♀️

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “Right off the bat here, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that I think I know the name of the person who arguably, is the biggest beneficiary of Donald Trump starting an inexplicable war in #Venezuela this weekend…There is a good case to be made…that the single biggest winner in this whole situation is a person named Karen Budd-Falen…Karen Budd-Falen is the number three official in the Interior Department under Donald Trump. She also served in the same department during Trump’s first term. Karen Budd-Falen’s family has a ranch in Nevada, and there’s a company that wanted to build a huge Lithium mine in that part of Nevada, and Lithium mines…take a ton of water. During Trump’s first term, while Karen was working at the Department of the Interior, Karen’s husband sold the water rights from their ranch in Nevada to the mining company that was going to build this big mine. They said we’re gonna pay you $3.5 million for the water from your ranch, the only catch, the only contingency, is that the full deal ONLY goes ahead if our mine gets approved by the Interior Department…During Trump’s first term, she meets with the mining company, she meets with them at the cafeteria at the Interior Department…and then hey wouldn’t you know it, turns out that mine got approved, and it got approved on a FAST TRACK so it could avoid the pesky environmental reviews…”🤦♀️

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “I should tell you, in Tennessee, a big slice of Black residents in Memphis will now have their votes folded into a White county called Williamson County. Williamson County literally STILL HAS a confederate flag on their county seal, but they’ll have just the right size of a slice of Black voters from Memphis to make sure they can never, with their other Memphis residents, elect a member of Congress of their choosing. There’s a reason why people are calling this Jim Crow 2.0. This REALLY IS plainly an effort to drag us back to the the post reconstruction era after the civil war…”😳

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “It should also be noted that Trump commemorated the 250th anniversary of the nation’s founding this weekend by doing one extra thing that wasn’t on the agenda, but he did nonetheless…he got online and posted a racist fake image of former President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama in a fake Air Force One that was all covered in graffiti. As the Associated Press delicately noted: ‘The use of graffiti is a coded message to remind people of crime and urban decay, and has been used in racist messaging against Black people in the past.’ The AP also noting that this latest racist post from Trump for Independence Day weekend comes after another racist post by President Trump that showed the couple as primates in a jungle. Happy 250th anniversary.”🙄

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “Today, you know there’s this huge #blizzard on the east coast. Today, for some reason, Kristi Noem’s department decided to fly a real deportation flight into New Hampshire. They flew it into…New Hampshire at 1 am today, right at the height of the blizzard. The airport…said they had NO IDEA this flight was coming, had they known they would have told them don’t come, it’s not safe, but Kristi Noem’s department, in its INFINITE WISDOM, flew this plane full of people there, presumably shackled…and then they left the people on that plane on the tarmac for more than 12 HOURS in the middle of that blizzard.”🤦♀️
