According to the official White House account, the US is in the midst of an "insurrection" that warrants federalization of the National Guard, which is why the President is attending a UFC fight and hanging out with Dana White.

Aaaaand this is exactly why they are doing it. This will fill the space. Not shitty job numbers. Not Elon Chaos. Not failed trade negotiations. Not the collapsing economy. This. Damn you dumbasses! Fucking learn to control a fucking narrative!

VETERAN: “This is why they can’t wear masks. Because people like this exist… if you want to snatch people off the streets, do it in uniform, and show your damn face.” (@MarshaBlackburn’s Secret Police bill criminalizes transparency and threatens 5 years for naming an ICE agent)

Curious how successful the feds will be in recalling fired workers. Some people need/really want to do the job and will go back, but the admin has already demonstrated it won't respect worker rights/the law plus they're on the record saying they want to make life hell for civil service employees.

This is one of those times where it really behooves us all to ground ourselves by reading legal experts who know what they're talking about, like @stevevladeck.bsky.social @joycewhitevance.bsky.social @rgoodlaw.bsky.social @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social

Of course the LA Times makes it look like a full on riot instead of showing that the mostly peaceful protesters were literally and constantly assaulted by ICE agents. The majority of fires that were started weren’t by the public but by ICE firing into the crowds and canisters starting fires. 🧵

The statute that President Trump has invoked - 10 U.S.C. § 12406 - has an important proviso: “orders for these purposes shall be issued through the governors of the States" Great article @justsecurity.org explains that proviso in this February 2024 article:

The Trump administration's baseless deployment of the National Guard is plainly retaliation against California, a stronghold for immigrant communities, and is akin to a declaration of war on all Californians.

This is a pre-planned operation in LA!

All protestors need to do in California is wear MAGA hats and shirts and hold Trump posters and flags. Promote some conspiracy theories and also a Confederate flag. National Guard and police won't touch them.

Math. Not even once.

1/ If accurate, this is almost certainly a conflict with the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement, including the National Guard if they are federalized.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

ICE abducted and imprisoned a family including two children and a mother with a high-risk pregnancy in a basement overnight with no beds and limited access to food and water. But ICE wants to you know that its stormtroopers are ‘real people’ with families. K. www.cbsnews.com/news/immigra...

Dear journalists. When the US President is openly accused of paedophilia the story is either impeachment or defamation. If not, the story is how words have lost all meaning, truth has lost all value, and journalists are now completely desensitised to lying and corruption.

Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio tried to give a press conference to announce his lawsuit against DOJ. Much to my surprise it turned out to be the greatest press conference of all-time.

Donald Trump, all day Friday: Elon Musk has a problem. The guy needs help. SCOTUS, end of Friday: Okay then! We'll let his DOGE boys access all of Americans' Social Security data!!

"We are witnessing a constitutional tool of mercy being wielded as a tool for rewarding loyalty and creating 'an incentive structure to encourage people to take illegal actions” on the president’s behalf.'" ICYMI @kimwehle.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-new-...

Major media are afraid to tell us that Trump is in the process of setting up a dictatorship. They know it — everyone closely following the news knows it — but they fear that telling such a stark truth would seem “partisan” and make them a target. Their failure to sound the alarm endangers us all.

You can argue the merits of deporting Marcelo—a young man brought here at age 5—if you want to. But this is someone we should be proud to call American. He’s solid on every level. And if you’re really a Christian, you should be lifting him up, not casting him out. Listen w/an open mind—and heart.

Scenes like this were DIRECTLY caused by Stephen Miller's wailing that ICE can't arrest the number of people he promised they would arrest (bc he lied abt how many criminal aliens there are).

Wait... is this the best meme ever made?

I hope Taylor Swift writes about today’s breakup.

Sure it’s fun to watch idiots argue, but they’re powerful, vindictive idiots who have already destroyed so much. What else has to burn for this to be over? I wish this popcorn tasted better ☹️

"We cannot build bananas in America" is an all timer

If you had important information for voters, and kept it to yourself to sell books after it was too late, you’re not a hero. You’re an asshole.
