IMO Jacob Soboroff is one of the best on-the-ground investigative reporters today. For all the criticism our media deserves, he and the others like him, have been doing important, thorough work to help keep us informed. I’m glad he gets to do something fun like this! Seth is awesome too!

So the people that Republicans deem worthy enough to keep their health insurance at all are now also going to be told by the government where they can and can’t go to get birth control and pap smears and cancer screenings? Got it. Gross.

One kind of sad thing about all the hate rn is that Zohran Mamdani is actually living the classic American dream story. It's what they've told us the United States is all about all our lives. They're the ones who're changing the rules to serve themselves, and we don't have to go along with it.

I spent most of today seeking to meet with one of the many victims of ICE raids currently jailed in Downtown LA. While @chrclla.bsky.social focuses its efforts on impact litigation, my team boosts efforts on the ground whenever possible. What I saw speaks to the crisis in LA & beyond.

Marco Rubio needs to be asked whether he believes his grandfather who remained in the U.S. after receiving a deportation order from our govt should have been treated the way the father of 3 Marines was treated by ICE this weekend in California. ASK HIM. Make him confront his lack of character.

“He always paid his taxes on time..” & asked his son to finish the landscaping job he was doing when he got detained… Omg I can’t even process this cruelty. I hope ICE is sued up the wazoo - if it even was ICE.

I get annoyed at the narrative that all the awareness and work on climate change hasn't done anything. Yes, global CO₂ emissions indeed continue to climb, but we don't know the counterfactual. When I was in grad school, we were on track for 5°C of warming. Now it's below 3°C. That's progress.

Got an email from a buddy this morning that brought me up short, asking if it was time for people to start hiding immigrants who risk deportation. My initial reaction was, No. We're not in Anne Frank territory. But the more I thought about it, I had questions . . .

It’s almost like this is the EXACT reason the founders added the 2nd amendment. But it’s so weird how the NRA isn’t encouraging its members to “refresh the tree of liberty” now….

I’m far from home today but so heartened to see the massive #NoKings protests all across the country. There’s so much bad right now that this affirmation that people get the danger looming and are standing up to say NO gives me a glimmer of hope amidst the horrors of the past months & years.

Just want to raise the point that Secretary Noem certainly knows that Alex Padilla is a U.S. senator. She could have easily instructed security to knock it off. (Also did the Secret Service not know he was a Senator, either??)

Counterpoint: Robert E. Lee was a treasonous loser who gladly slaughtered his fellow Americans in defense of slavery while being a mildly above average military tactician. He should’ve been hanged in Lexington.

What the immigrant community needs to do is refuse to work. Go on a national strike. Let America experience life without immigrant labor.

I’ve spent years covering both immigration and Los Angeles and sending National Guard troops to LA feels like “a thinly-veiled message to Democratic-run places that retribution awaits those who would stand between immigrants and the administration’s deportation machine” economist.com/united-state...

If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!" And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

Today, we honor the brave service members who stormed Normandy on June 6, 1944—fighting tyranny so democracy could endure. Their sacrifice inspires us to stand against hate and build inclusive communities as we carry their legacy forward. #DDay #Honor #Normandy

Today is International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression. "The purpose of the day is to acknowledge the pain suffered by children throughout the world who are the victims of physical, mental and emotional abuse." This day originally focused on victims of 1982 Lebanon War, now expanded.

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much? They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs. Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher. Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.” It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

I've been obsessed with how the right thinks since my early days of listening to RW AM talk radio as a delivery van driver for a few years in the mid 1990's. These days I find the most interesting portrayals and perspectives on the RW infosphere in these podcasts. 🧵 @decodingfoxnews.bsky.social

A drug addict usurped congressional power, and unilaterally gutted US soft power. Members of the administration knew about, and were disturbed by, his drug use (WSJ). Isn’t this a cover-up?
