I had this pinned to my main account on Twitter, I kept it there. I had made an alt acc, was no longer able to pinn this or anything like this. 😔 I love it.❤️ youtu.be/wEBlaMOmKV4?...

History lesson Because they don’t want this TRUTH out there #OV1

A video explaining the terms about federalization of the Guard, the difference between the Guard, Reserves, and Active Duty, and when the guard or active duty can engage in law enforcement. Hint: the guard as activated in Calif cannot. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/video-expl...

ATTN: If you’re a member of the National Guard or you work for ICE and you’re asked to violate the law or your oath, contact Whistleblower Aid to safely, securely, and legally blow the whistle. You can support Whistleblower Aid HERE: whistlebloweraid.org/beans

So we have reports that ICE has imprisoned a group of immigrants including women and children apparently. They are in a basement in LA without proper food,water, and hygiene. A group of kidnapped immigrants are in a storage container in Sudan in inhumane conditions. Shame Shame

Warning: ICE is planning 30 days of immigration raids across Los Angeles County. If you or someone you know may be impacted, now is the time to set up a support system, identify a safe place, and stay alert.

How Trump Is Making America Backward Again - Rolling Stone How a corrupt regime is screwing us over. Anybody have any good news to tell, anybody, please? Paul Krugman knows his stuff and he’s not too hopeful. We need radical change in this country. We must stand up for democracy or perish.

ICE crossed a line in LA

“Goliath and Blue Zeus are two huge mustang #stallions who lived hardscrabble lives on the #Wyoming range and now enjoy freedom and plentiful forage on a 9,000-acre #horse #sanctuary in #Oregon. Goliath is 33-years-old while Blue Zeus is 24.” bit.ly/4kWTpU2

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

This was 💯. Moran deleted it and has been suspended by ABC. But everyone should see it.

Unions and allies in California and across the U.S. on Saturday are demanding the immediate release of David Huerta, president of SEIU California and SEIU-United Service Workers West, after the highly regarded labor leader was injured and arrested while witnessing a raid by ICE agents on Friday.

Bill Atkinson, who created HyperCard and many of the seminal applications for the early Macintosh, has died at 73. Bill was one of my heroes, a pioneer from the era when technology empowered the people who used it. They don’t make tech guys like Bill anymore. RIP. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/07/t...

If you were rich would you invest your money in Trump’s America?

🚩Governor Newsom deployed CHP officers to “maintain safety on Los Angeles highways to keep the peace.” “It’s not (the CHP’s) job to assist in federal immigration enforcement,” Newsom said. “The fed govt is sowing chaos so they can have an excuse to escalate. #HelterSkelterTrumpsAmerica

The spin has already started as if our entire city is in chaos. I went from Burbank all the way over to Koreatown on surface streets tonight and jackshit was happening. The CNN coverage makes it look like world war 3 and that’s what Trump wants so he and his fucking goons can come shoot Angelenos.

Happy Sunday! As I leave the Berkshires and head back to the ocean, here is last night’s mountain sunset to greet your day. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

New in PN: Adam Serwer on America's "new dark age" "They see this as a long-term investment in a more ignorant population reliant on sources of information they can control — a docile population that can be easily manipulated." — @adamserwer.bsky.social

He shouldn’t have taken the post down. He’s a reporter. And he was reporting facts.

Dump couldn’t call the National Guard out when our Capitol Police were being beaten to death by armed murderers chanting ‘kill Mike Pence”, but peaceful protesters are being shot at and run over by their trucks. His Revenge on Americas Innocents is CRIMINAL.

Goldman: Both of the issues Marjorie Taylor Greene raised—were widely publicized and thoroughly debated in committee and on the House floor. If you’re publicly admitting that you didn’t know what you were voting on and now regret it—you’re not competent or qualified to serve in Congress.

Congratulations to Coco Gauff for winning her first French Open title! We really LOVE this.

"What they want is for people to look at who's rich, who’s important & say, 'That’s just the way things are. That’s the way they're supposed to be.' They don’t want people looking back at the past & saying, “This is because of slavery or Jim Crow or because women were excluded from the workforce.'”

This isn’t even remotely legal what he is doing.

Science is about learning and discovering. Science is a process rather than a product.

Did you know that @thegef.bsky.social is the largest funding mechanism for international collaboration on water and ocean issues? It supports nearly 200 countries working together to manage transboundary water resources. Latest Report 👇 thegef.org/newsroom/pub... #WorldOceanDay

Gov. Gavin Newsom said on social media that California National Guard was being taken over by the federal government “not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.”

🇵🇸💕It was a beautiful day seeing the life in these flowers and it made me think that time fixes everything 🇵🇸♥💙

Anyone starting a pool on how long before his pardon arrives?
