In the wake of the massive winter storm, the power is still out in some places, trees are down, and the death toll continues to rise. And where is FEMA? Don’t pester Trump about it because he is very busy going after political opponents like Don Lemon, re-litigating once again his 2020 loss in Georgia, and keeping up his terror campaign in Minnesota in hopes of invoking the Insurrection Act.

Official Mississippi doesn&#39;t really want to talk about the murder of Emmett Till—or teach about the murder of Emmett Till. Almost 71 years later, the intentional attempt to erase the crime lives on. On this MLK Day weekend, Wright joins Tim to discuss the role of history and black history in our public consciousness.

But Trump backed into a corner could well be more unconstrained and more dangerous—and it could also fuel his imperialist ambitions toward Greenland, an island he has been obsessed with owning since his first term.

John Heilemann: The Year Is Ending a Lot Better than It Started
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
Only six months ago, the wheels felt like they were coming off of America, and our democracy experiment. But since the Epstein case broke wide open, the wheels started to come off Trump instead. And he&#39;s not just lost his way in politics but in the broader culture too—with his despicable words about Rob Reiner, his trying to get Jimmy Kimmel fired, and his pedophile cover-up.

The DOJ is releasing random Epstein documents to distract the public, while also intentionally covering the faces of men in images. It&#39;s also pulling docs that reveal Trump&#39;s name. Epstein&#39;s victims think the government&#39;s messy release is all designed to protect their not publicly-known perpetrators.

After a campaign built on the promise that Trump was going to look out for his voters, he started his administration getting sidetracked by DOGE and Musk&#39;s phony ideas about saving money. After that petered out, he got distracted by his need to put his name all over the place. In the process, he&#39;s totally forgotten to help his people—or even fake trying to help them.

Before a live audience in Nashville Tuesday, the former MVP served up some stirring words about fighting back against what is happening under Trump.
