“On Saturday evening, Yemen’s Houthis said they would target US ships in the Red Sea if Washington became involved in attacks on Iran. In May, the US and the Houthis agreed a ceasefire…” Trump is gonna get Americans killed for Netanyahu.

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS. How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share. I’ve got a bill to get it done.

We still have no idea who the ICE agents are. They could be insurrectionists, extremist militiamen or criminals themselves, chasing law-abiding citizens down the street for recording their kidnappings. The odds they aren't are low. Congress must raise hell about this. A masked gang runs our country.

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.

The number of immigrants detained in ICE facilities across the country has reached a record high of more than 56,000, the most since 2019.

BREAKING: PLEASE SHARE Christian Stephen, a member of the US military was placed on a 72 hold in a psych facility for posting this video stating that he wants to uphold our Constitution.

this young man made me tear up with pride.

In Bell, CA an entire community stood up against ICE, including the local police and the fire dept. The fire truck appears to not allow ICE vehicles to move forward nor remain and pushes forward to escort them out. A police car also helped with escorting. /

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

“He’s a citizen… they’re not going after hard criminals, they’re going after anyone that looks a certain way.” Unconstitutional, state-sanctioned Racism. Plain and simple. (“this is what I voted for” is a confession)

It will not be enough until every single person kidnapped by ICE is freed. Free them all. Every one. Abolish ICE.

No matter where someone was born, the United States should never tolerate inhumane treatment. Yet right now, detainees in ICE custody are facing conditions that are simply unacceptable in any country that claims to uphold human rights, let alone one that prides itself on freedom and the rule of law.

STORY TIME: ICE rolled up. The city of Bell, California said, “Not today!”

Governor @GavinNewsom’s social media team is ready for @JDVance

WATCH — @underwood.house.gov : “Elderly will lose Medicaid. Nursing homes will close. What are people supposed to do? They don’t care… there’s no way to sugarcoat it - it will be devastating for our communities.” #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

the next protest by the No Kings organizers

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident. He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

an easy disguise: all you’d need are some black masks

Let’s check in on Susan Collins.

ICE agents are facing a 413% increase in violence against them. Imagine being the devil incarnate and people not liking you.

No lies detected from Amy Klobuchar! 👇 Tell your Senators to kill this big, ugly bill here: bit.ly/45n1uMX #DontKillOurMedicaid

"This case highlights the significant threat posed to U.S. citizens by frequent ICE errors, which are exacerbated when local law enforcement agencies participate in immigration enforcement...” www.bet.com/article/6rdn...

No tariff deals,no Chinese container ships ,no containers. Fields not being planted, fields not being harvested. Prices going up consumer confidence going down. Armed ice agents ripping families apart and most immigrants in hiding. They voted for all of this. Imagine what Christmas will be like?

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

In Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, a “palantir” is a seeing stone that can be used to distort truth and present selective visions of reality. Palantir Technologies bears a striking similarity. Be warned. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/palantir-the-worst-of-the-corporate

Yeah, I’m sure what Mike has in mind is to build affordable housing at those scenic vistas on federal land he wants to open up for development. That’s how he’s selling it, but we all know that they have different plans.

Folks in rural areas: The Big Beautiful Bill will close your local hospitals after the Medicaid cuts take effect. Tell your senators your community needs them to stay open!

“ICE in just a few weeks has transformed itself into the closest thing that the US has ever had to a ‘secret police,’ with more seemingly culturally in common with the Klan nightriders of Reconstruction than their federal agency brethren like the FBI or ATF.” @garrettgraff.bsky.social

Why am I not surprised?
