MSNBC Gives Representative Hakeem Jeffries Another Soapbox to Talk Your Ear Off

Al Sharpton hosted Representative Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) on his MSNBC' show PoliticsNation Saturday evening, just days after Jeffries’s historic 8 hour and 44 minute waste of time on the House floor arguing against the Big Beautiful Bill. One might think giving a man capable of wasting that much time on-air an interview would be a dangerous call, but for Sharpton, who led a softball interview without offering any pushback, Jeffries talking too much did not seem to be a concern. After he spoke on his attempted filibuster, Sharpton guided Jeffries through a slew of topics, opening each one with a question designed to tee up Jeffries for a long winded response.      Sharpton tried to give Jeffries the chance to politicize the tragic flooding in Texas over the weekend: Authorities are searching for more than two dozen people missing from a girls summer camp after flash floods that left at least 32 people dead. Authorities are being questioned over whether the camp had sufficient warning about the severe weather. The incident comes as the Trump administration is making deep cuts to weather forecasting services and openly discussing shifting more of the burden for disaster recovery from FEMA to state governments. How concerned are you in light of this? Jeffries, however, did not follow Sharpton’s lead, opting instead to advocate for bipartisan support for recovery while not responding to the question of what role FEMA cuts may have played into the disaster. Despite having been ignored, Sharpton simply moved on without pushing the question. In a similar vein, Sharpton asked about President Trump’s Everglades detention center, painting an absurd picture of racism for Jeffries to comment on: Florida's attorney general says that the first group of immigrants have arrived in the Everglades detention center known as “Alligator Alcatraz.” President Trump visited there earlier this week. The Trump administration has embraced the idea of alligator guards as a joke. Those of us familiar with the history of the Jim Crow South know the idea of using black babies as alligator bait has a long, ugly history. The White House tries to claim its immigration policies aren't about race, but don't these stunts expose their motivations very clearly, or at least should raise their sensitivity? This comparison was a stretch even by generous terms. Trump’s offhand joke that the detention center would have “a lot of cops that are in the form of alligators” in the Everglades, a National Park known for its alligator population, was obviously unrelated to Jim Crow-era targeted racial propaganda. This time, however, since it suited the narrative he wanted to push, Jeffries indulged Sharpton’s weak connection. He accused Trump of erasing African-American history and called the detention center an extreme and toxic stunt, accusations he could not back up and wasn’t asked to. Once again opting not to press further, Sharpton switched to his final topic: downplaying New York mayoral candidate Zoran Mamdani and his misrepresentation of his race on college admissions. Jeffries outright ignored the question, instead praising Mamdani on his goal of making New York City affordable.  Sharpton allowed his question to go unanswered, consistently refusing to do anything but give Jeffries another floor on which he could speak as long as he wanted. The transcript is below. Click "expand" to read. MSNBC's PoliticsNation July 5, 2025 5:01 p.m. EST AL SHARPTON: Good evening and welcome to PoliticsNation from New Orleans, Louisiana. Tonight's lede: aftermath. President Trump and Congressional Republicans are celebrating the passage of their tax and spending bill this 4th of July weekend. There's no question that it's big, but its beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The richest among us can look forward to more than $4 trillion in net tax cuts over the next decade. The administration's mass deportation efforts witness a historic windfall, with $45 billion in new funding for ICE alone. But for those who are less wealthy and powerful, it's a different story. 12 million Americans are likely to see their health insurance go away. Three million will watch their SNAP benefits disappear. Economists warn it could be a formula for disaster, adding more than $3 trillion to our national debt in just the coming 10 years, leaving future generations to face the consequences of the political decisions of our leaders and what they made happen today.  Joining me now to get us started is the Minority Leader of the House of Representatives, Democratic Congressman Hakeem Jeffries of New York. Thank you for joining us. And, Congressman, you made history. You used your “magic minute” during the spending bill debate this week to deliver the longest House floor speech in U.S. history. For anyone who missed the full eight hours and 45 seconds, can you tell us tonight what's wrong with this piece of legislation? (...) REP. HAKEEM JEFFRIES (D-NY): The “One Big Ugly Bill” hurts everyday Americans and rewards billionaires. It's the largest attack on healthcare in American history. More than 17 million people will lose their healthcare as a result of this “One Big Ugly Bill.” It will end, effectively, Medicaid as we know it. Hospitals will close. Nursing homes will shut down. Community-based health clinics won't be able to operate.  And as a result of the fact that so many people will not be able to get access to health care, folks are going to die all across the United States of America. And for those who have private insurance premiums, co-pays and deductibles are likely to go up for millions of Americans. But it also represents the largest cut to supplemental nutritional assistance in American history. Republicans are literally ripping food out of the mouths of hungry children, veterans and seniors. And all of this, Reverend Sharpton, is being done so that Republicans can award billionaires massive tax breaks as part of an effort to jam their extreme trickle-down economic theory down the throats of the American people and explode the debt by more than $3 trillion. SHARPTON: Now, there are some Democrats right now who are outraged over what President Trump is doing, who are frustrated Democrats can't do more right now to block him legislatively. What is your message to those critics? JEFFRIES: Well, listen, it's incredibly important to note that House Democrats and Senate Democrats were united in their strong and principled opposition against Donald Trump's extreme agenda. The problem that we confront is that Republicans have effectively become a rubber stamp for Donald Trump's ideology and his extremism, and have chosen to abandon their role as part of a separate and co-equal branch of government. You know, as members of Congress, we don't work for Donald Trump. We don't work for JD Vance. We don't work for Elon Musk. We work for the American people. That's why, as House Democrats, our determination was going to stand up for the healthcare, the American people, stand up for veterans and farmers, everyday Americans, the children, the older Americans, the people with disabilities who are all going to be hurt by this “One Big Ugly Bill.”  And the problem that we confront in the legislative branch right now is that Republicans have basically conducted themselves like they're a wholly owned subsidiary of Trump Incorporated, not independently elected folks who are supposed to be serving the best interests of the American people. SHARPTON: Now, we're following breaking news this weekend out of Texas hill country. Governor Abbott held a news conference just in the last hour. Authorities are searching for more than two dozen people missing from a girls summer camp after flash floods that left at least 32 people dead. Authorities are being questioned over whether the camp had sufficient warning about the severe weather. The incident comes as the Trump administration is making deep cuts to weather forecasting services and openly discussing shifting more of the burden for disaster recovery from FEMA to state governments. How concerned are you in light of this? And we’re all praying for the families, but how concerned are you in light of this with the county’s readiness for extreme weather, right now, heading into the hurricane season? JEFFRIES: Such a very shocking and sad tragedy. And our thoughts and prayers, of course, go out to all of the families of those who have been lost, of those who are still missing. And we also want to express our thanks and appreciation for the first responders who are right now in the midst of a search and rescue operation. I think we are going to have to figure out what happened, why did it happen, and how do we prevent this type of tragedy from ever happening again? And so the question of readiness is certainly something that congress should be able to explore in a bipartisan way, particularly as we head into a summer where we can expect intensifying extreme weather events hitting massive parts of the United States of America throughout July, August into the fall. SHARPTON: Let me go to another issue. Florida's attorney general says that the first group of immigrants have arrived in the Everglades detention center known as “Alligator Alcatraz.” President Trump visited there earlier this week. The Trump administration has embraced the idea of alligator guards as a joke. Those of us familiar with the history of the Jim Crow South know the idea of using black babies as alligator bait has a long, ugly history. The White House tries to claim its immigration policies aren't about race, but don't these stunts expose their motivations very clearly, or at least should raise their sensitivity? JEFFRIES: Yeah, the last thing I would expect from this particular toxic administration at this point is sensitivity to any of the painful parts of our history. They've tried to erase our history, sanitize and whitewash our history. You know, the big problem with the Trump administration, we see all of these stunts that continue to take place, very toxic stunts, extreme stunts in many, in many cases. But what have they done to actually address the issues of importance to the American people, like lowering the high cost of living? This guy, Donald Trump, promised to lower the high cost of living, lower grocery costs on day one. Costs aren't going down. They're going up.  And by the way, as a result of this one big ugly bill, you're going to see utility bills start to skyrocket as a result of some of the things that have been done in this reckless Republican budget. And instead, they're focused on stunts like this “Alligator Alcatraz” situation. By the way, Rev, what they should be doing, what they promised to do was to deport violent felons who are undocumented. Instead, in many cases, they're going after law-abiding immigrant families. We all want to secure the border, but what is taking place right now is not what I believe the American people signed up for last November. SHARPTON: Now, I want to take us home for a minute. I'm in New Orleans at the Essence Festival, but I want to ask you about the Democratic nominee for New York City Mayor, Zohran Mamdani. Last weekend, you said you were still getting to know Mamdani and wanted him to clarify some of his positions on Israel and anti-Semitism. This week you defended Mamdani when the President attacked his Muslim faith and questioned his immigration status. Have you had any additional conversations with Mamdani in the past few days, and has your thinking on his candidacy evolved at all? JEFFRIES: Yeah, I haven't had any opportunity to talk with him over the last few days based on the fact that so much has been going on in Washington, D.C as we – as House Democrats have been united in our fight to try to stop this extremism that Donald Trump and Republicans are jamming down the throats of the American people. Real painful stuff in terms of healthcare and nutritional assistance and beyond.  But we are in the process of getting a meeting in person, scheduled likely to take place in East New York or Brownsville, Canarsie, at which point we'll have the opportunity to discuss a whole host of issues, his vision for the future. I can share with him some of my thoughts about the district that I'm privileged to represent, and also talk about the importance of making sure that we're all on board with the need to take back control of the House of Representatives next November, so we can end this national nightmare in Washington, D.C., begin that process and actually try to bring out an America that is the best version of herself. SHARPTON: Now, a quick follow up. New York City Mayor Eric Adams is attacking Mamdani over reports that he identified himself as African American and Asian on college application. Mamdani was born in Uganda, his parents from India. What are your thoughts on this issue? Mamdani has checked multiple boxes trying to capture what he calls the fullness of his background. I mean, is this a real issue to you? JEFFRIES: I think to me, you know, the issue that we have to deal with in New York City, which our Democratic nominee did talk about extensively during the primary campaign, is affordability. And particularly in many of the neighborhoods that are being overwhelmed by gentrification and wiped out by housing displacement, that whoever is going to be the next mayor of the city of New York really needs to articulate a concrete plan for making sure that working-class communities, including working-class neighborhoods of color, can still have a place in our great city, the city that both of us love, but we know is changing significantly in terms of the opportunity for working families and middle class folks to be able to continue to call it home. SHARPTON: Well, I want to thank you for coming on.

Deep-staters threaten to use color revolution tactics against Trump admin: Report

Despite delays in mass layoffs ordered by a Clinton judge, the Trump administration has already managed some significant housecleaning at the U.S. State Department.Secretary of State Marco Rubio has, for instance, fired scores of contractors who supposedly worked abroad building up civil society and democratic practices, and shuttered the rebrand of both the censorious Global Engagement Center and the U.S. Agency for International Development.These actions, coupled with Rubio's plan to can thousands of State Department employees, have enraged all the right people — including the Democratic lawmakers in Congress who claimed in a June 27 letter that large-scale reductions in force of America's diplomatic workforce would "leave the U.S. with limited tools to engage as a leader on the world stage during this critical juncture."It appears that the changes have angered bad actors besides those in Congress — some of whom intend to respond with something more serious than sternly written letters.'They've done a very foolish thing.'A number of anonymous former USAID and State Department officials recently told the Allbritton Journalism Institute's publication NOTUS about their plans to undermine the Trump administration.While it largely sounds like a revival of the "resistance" that undermined the first Trump administration, this group of would-be saboteurs appears keen on using nation-destabilizing tactics practiced abroad on their own government.RELATED: 'Nothing to be proud of': State Department spits on USAID's grave following Bono, Obama eulogies Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty ImagesAccording to NOTUS, some jilted establishmentarians who were previously "stationed across the globe actively supporting opposition movements in autocratic nations" are now building a network of federal workers who are "willing to engage in even minor acts of rebellion in the office" — what BlazeTV host Auron MacIntyre and other critics have alternatively characterized as "treason.""They were so quick to disband AID, the group that supposedly instigates color revolutions," a currently employed federal official told NOTUS. "But they've done a very foolish thing. You just released a bunch of well-trained individuals into your population. If you kept our offices going and had us play solitaire in the office, it might have been safer to keep your regime."Color revolutions — such as the 2003 Rose Revolution in Georgia, the 2004 Orange Revolution in Ukraine, and the 2005 Tulip Revolution in Kyrgyzstan — are political upheavals aimed at toppling supposedly illegitimate or abusive regimes and replacing them with supposedly liberal democratic regimes.Blaze News previously highlighted that in many cases, color revolutionaries were afforded help and direction by state actors and/or by nongovernmental organizations.The Washington Post's David Ignatius described such efforts plainly in a 1991 column about successful efforts undertaken at the time in Russia, noting that instead of engaging in Cold War-style covert operations, overt operatives "have been doing in public what the CIA used to do in private — providing money and moral support for pro-democracy groups, training resistance fighters, working to subvert communist rule."Although the current Republican administration was given a clear mandate by the American people to rule, it may have repeated the error made by other sovereign governments targeted by color revolutions: Its agenda is not aligned with that of a clique of unelected bureaucrats in the District of Columbia.RELATED: Flipping cars for ‘justice’ — then back to poli-sci class oxinoxi/Getty ImagesThose now plotting against the American government were once paid by the federal government to push Latin American militants to overthrow supposed dictators and to support African secessionist movements. They also apparently helped kick off "an ultimately successful uprising in the Middle East," according to the NOTUS report.It's unclear whether that "successful" Middle Eastern uprising is the same one that resulted in both a civil war that claimed the lives of over 600,000 people and Islamic terrorists running Syria.'Today it starts with four, but tomorrow it's 10.'Former State Department officials told NOTUS that they are holding "noncooperation" training sessions, attempting to set the stage for a nationwide general strike, and circulating copies of the CIA's Simple Sabotage Field Manual, which notes that "acts of simple sabotage, multiplied by thousands of citizen-saboteurs, can be an effective weapon against the enemy" and will "demoralize enemy administrators."The manual provides tips for interfering with organizations and productions, such as bringing up irrelevant issues as frequently as possible; haggling over the precise wordings of communications, minutes, and resolutions; advocating caution and generally slowing down processes by any means; demanding written orders; deliberately misunderstanding orders; waiting until current stocks of necessary materials are exhausted before ordering new materials; giving incomplete or misleading instructions to new workers; and holding "conferences when there is more critical work to be done."Rosarie Tucci, the former deputy assistant administrator of the now extinct USAID Bureau for Conflict Prevention and Stabilization, is apparently operating "in this space," co-leading a group called DemocracyAID with fellow USAID alumna Denielle Reiff. Their group is reportedly running workshops with those still employed by the federal government."The whole point of it is to start off slow," Tucci told NOTUS. "You're building up that muscle and that bravery, and you're building up your numbers. Today it starts with four, but tomorrow it's 10. We're helping them understand that is the organizing, and that is the process to get to a massive strike."Blaze News has reached out to the State Department for comment.White House deputy press secretary Anna Kelly said in a statement to Blaze News, "It is inherently undemocratic for unelected bureaucrats to undermine the duly elected President of the United States and the agenda he was given a mandate to implement."Like Blaze News?

DeSantis has some serious political advice for Elon Musk to ensure a 'monumental impact'

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) offered Elon Musk some political advice following the business magnate's announcement that he is starting the "America Party," a new political party Musk claims will counter the "Republican/Democrat Uniparty" amid his ongoing feud with President Donald Trump.During a Monday afternoon press conference, DeSantis stated, "I think Elon Musk has been one of the most innovative entrepreneurs, not just in our country's history, but probably in world history. And I think he's done a lot and has a lot more left in the tank, obviously."'If somebody as significant as Elon wants to get in the game on that, he will have a, I think, very consequential impact.'DeSantis praised Musk for his efforts in the 2024 election and for initiating the Department of Government Efficiency, a concept that the governor has also adopted at the state level to reduce Florida's budget. While DeSantis noted that he is "a big fan" of Musk's cost-cutting efforts, he issued a serious warning about his third-party aspirations and offered some advice.The governor explained that a third party would likely result in Democratic candidates winning elections, particularly if Musk plans to fund Senate and House candidates in competitive races."As it is now, even if somehow a third party could elect some people that were so-called fiscal conservatives, I don't think it would even move the needle even if they got elected," DeSantis said. "And we know that they wouldn't get elected because it's really one of two parties, so you're either just taking votes away from one side or the other."RELATED: 'TRAIN WRECK': Trump blasts Elon Musk over anti-MAGA campaign, new 'moderate' party Photo by Samuel Corum/Getty ImagesHe stated that the Republican Party is facing a significant issue with political candidates making promises on the campaign trail that they do not keep once elected, particularly regarding reining in the nation's out-of-control budget.Instead, the Florida governor argued that Musk could have a "monumental impact" on the nation if he focused on working with state legislators to add a balanced budget amendment to the United States Constitution, which he noted could be done without congressional approval."I don't think just electing a few better people is going to change [the nation's] trajectory," DeSantis continued. "You need to do a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution. You can do it through the states; you can do it through Article Five. We've got 28 states that have approved this. There's another four or five that are on the docket. Once you hit 34, then you write an amendment, and then the states are able to ratify that."RELATED: The political future of Elon Musk Photo by Jared C. Tilton/Getty ImagesThe governor also called for Musk to push for term limits for members of Congress. DeSantis stated that he is confident Musk would be successful in implementing these changes. "That is achievable. And especially, if somebody as significant as Elon wants to get in the game on that, he will have a, I think, very consequential impact on that, and I think would be just the type that could bring this across the finish line," DeSantis remarked.Like Blaze News?

Fighter jet executes 'headbutt' maneuver as 11 planes breach restricted airspace above Trump's NJ retreat over weekend

Fighter jet executes 'headbutt' maneuver as 11 planes breach restricted airspace above Trump's NJ retreat over weekend

A total of 11 aircraft violated the restricted airspace over New Jersey during President Donald Trump's July Fourth weekend visit, prompting a fighter jet to be scrambled, according to authorities.The First Air Force — also known as Air Forces Northern, which is headquartered at Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida — announced in a statement that 11 civilian aircraft breached the temporary flight restriction airspace over Bedminster, New Jersey, where President Trump was spending the holiday weekend.'No excuses! Stay sharp, stay legal, and stay out of restricted airspace.'"This morning’s intercept, followed by two later [temporary flight restriction] violations, brings the total to 11 unauthorized incursions into restricted airspace this weekend," the First Air Force stated on Sunday.North American Aerospace Defense Command scrambled a fighter jet to intercept unauthorized aircraft violating the temporary flight restriction in the airspace over the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, approximately 40 miles west of New York City.Around 2:40 p.m. on Saturday, a fighter jet intercepted a civilian aircraft and executed a "headbutt" maneuver before safely escorting the plane out of the restricted airspace, Fox News reported.The headbutt maneuver is an aerial interception technique used by military planes to visually alert and redirect an unauthorized aircraft that has violated restricted airspace. The military airplane will fly in close proximity to the unauthorized aircraft before cutting in front of the nose of the civilian aircraft, according to Newsweek.An F-16 jet carried out a headbutt maneuver on a "general aviation aircraft" near the airspace around Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort on April 4, Newsweek reported.As Blaze News reported in March, F-16 fighter jets intercepted two unauthorized aircraft that had breached a temporary flight restriction in Florida when President Trump was at Mar-a-Lago in West Palm Beach.RELATED: Key US Air Force base shut down over drone activity as aerospace CEO unveils chilling theory on wave of mysterious drones — (@) James Gagnon — a former NORAD Operations Division Operations Standards Branch chief — revealed the procedure for when an aircraft violates the temporary flight restriction."When an aircraft enters a TFR that is not in contact with air traffic control and fighters are available, we'll have the fighter aircraft escort them out of the TFR," Gagnon explained."It's these people who are not on a flight plan or are flying VFR (Visual Flight Rules)," Gagnon continued. "They're not talking to anybody, and FAA doesn't know who they are. It's much easier when you're talking to the guy."NORAD noted that if the pilot of the unauthorized aircraft does not respond, the military plane will employ "more aggressive tactics such as dropping flares and performing 'headbutt' maneuvers, the rough equivalent of giving someone a shove and saying, 'Hey, you!'"A NORAD spokesperson told Reuters that the fighter jet involved in the intercept was an F-16.RELATED: 2 males accused of operating drone 'dangerously close' to Boston's Logan Airport Photo by Drew Angerer/Getty ImagesThe First Air Force cautioned pilots: "These TFRs are in place for a reason. No excuses! Stay sharp, stay legal, and stay out of restricted airspace."NORAD warned pilots, "It is critically important for North American flight safety that temporary flight restriction (TFR) violations are avoided. All pilots must familiarize themselves with updates to restricted airspace, including reviewing new and existing FAA [Notice to Airmen] that impact their flight plans and activities. Adhering to FAA restricted airspace protocols is mandatory, regardless of geographical region, airframe, or aircrew."Gen. Gregory M. Guillot, the commander of NORAD, stated on Sunday, "NORAD and the FAA aim to keep the skies over America safe, with close attention paid to areas with temporary flight restrictions (TFR) to ensure flight safety, national security, and the security of the president."Guillot stressed, "TFR procedures are mandatory, and the excessive number of TFR violations this weekend indicates some civil aviators are not reading Notice to Airmen, or NOTAMs, before each flight as required by the FAA."Guillot warned that any unauthorized aircraft in temporary flight restriction airspace will be intercepted by an armed fighter aircraft from NORAD.According to the Federal Aviation Administration, pilots who violate TFRs can face fines and certificate suspensions or revocations, depending on the severity of the violation.NORAD is a joint organization between the United States and Canada that is tasked with "the missions of aerospace warning and aerospace control for North America," and includes "monitoring of man-made objects in space and the detection, validation, and warning of attack against North America whether by aircraft, missiles, or space vehicles, through mutual support arrangements with other commands."RELATED: Florida JetBlue flight diverted after unruly passenger claims to be the devil, punches female companionLike Blaze News?

2 surprising new Apple Maps features revealed in the new iOS 26 beta

Apple shared plenty of exciting updates about iOS 26 at WWDC 2025, but as new versions of the beta have rolled out, data miners have been digging up even more features that Apple has yet to announce. The latest leak comes from iOS developer Steve Moser, who uncovered two new features for Apple Maps in iOS 26 beta 3. There's no guarantee these new features will be available when iOS 26 launches publicly this fall. In fact, it's entirely possible that we never see the features at all. That said, there is a pretty solid chance both will eventually make their way to the Apple Maps app, especially considering the code is included in the latest beta. Natural-language search for Apple Maps Currently, searching on Apple Maps is like using a search engine. You're going to get the best results by using keywords and location names. In iOS 26, Apple seemingly wants to shift that paradigm by allowing for more conversational and natural searches. "Search the Way You Talk," says a code string in the localization files for the updated Maps app. "Use natural language to find places like “Best coffee shops with free wi-fi.”" As Moser points out, Apple introduced a similar feature for its App Store in iOS 18.1. "App Store search lets you use natural language to find what you're looking for more easily," say the update notes from Apple. It allowed users to search for apps by describing them more specifically, such as the following: "Apps that can help me get to sleep." Moser claims that Maps on iOS 26 is already doing a better job of responding to conversational queries. For instance, when searching for the "best coffee shops with free wi-fi” in a tiny town in Germany, the map zooms out to show over a dozen results in the surrounding area. Previously, the same search would only show one coffee shop in the town. Maps won't always keep your screen on In addition to the search upgrade, there's a new string that seems to indicate the Maps app will stop forcing your screen to stay on when your iPhone is overheating: "Maps will no longer keep your screen on to allow your iPhone to cool down." If you've ever left your iPhone in the car during the summer, you've probably seen the following message show up: "iPhone needs to cool down before you can use it." It's one of the ways that the iPhone manages extreme temperatures to avoid damage. Oddly enough, the display doesn't turn off if Apple Maps is open, regardless of the temperature. On one hand, that makes sense, as the screen turning off in the middle of a road trip could leave you wondering where you're meant to turn. On the other hand, it could put your iPhone at risk. It looks like Apple is changing this behavior in iOS 26. We'll be keeping our eye out for more surprise features in future iOS 26 betas. Don't Miss: 7 hidden iOS 26 features iPhone users need to know about The post 2 surprising new Apple Maps features revealed in the new iOS 26 beta appeared first on BGR.
