And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

LOS ANGELES: Stay off the streets tonight. Stay home. Stay safe. Tom Homan says the National Guard might be deployed — and I’m telling you, he wants violence. They’re baiting us to react so they can escalate. Rule #1: Never protest at night. That’s when the worst happens—under cover of darkness.

UPDATE: David Huerta has been released from the hospital but remains in custody. His words: "We all collectively have to object to this madness because this is not justice. This is injustice." Free David Huerta. Free them ALL.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

Born and raised in Los Angeles County, David Huerta is a champion for justice and a good neighbor. Today, while advocating for his community during an ICE raid, he was injured and arrested. These raids are dangerous for our families and communities. They are unjust and must end.

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

Everyone knows Trump doesn’t read, but this is bonkers… Tulsi Gabbard is considering bringing in a Fox News producer to turn Trump’s daily intel briefings into Fox-style broadcasts to compensate. NOTE: Trump’s only taken 14 briefings as of May. Biden took 90. Obama took 63 in the same time frame.

The Trump bill treats public schools as a piggy bank that it can break to fund tax cuts for the wealthy and create chaos for schools across the country even as we watch how disastrously voucher programs have gone nationwide. #HandsOffPublicSchools

Audience member, referencing Medicaid and SNAP cuts: "People will die." Republican Senator: "Well, we all are going to die." Color me not at all surprised at the utter lack of empathy or concern from Joni Ernst. Keep it up GOP and you might just lose the House AND the Senate in 2026!

They wanted to pass this evil budget to take away healthcare from millions earlier today. It’s still stuck in the rules committee cause House Dems introduced over 500 amendments and we are lined up to debate on them. Delaying is important. Keep up the pressure on these Congressional Republicans.

Now is a great time to reach out to your member of Congress who promised not to cut Medicaid. Or to your conservative friends who don't think we should be exploding the debt. Because today, Donald Trump met with Republicans on Capitol Hill, trying to pass a bill that would do both.

The GOP Tax Scam is exactly what it sounds like—a massive handout to the ultra-wealthy, paid for by slashing Medicaid and food aid. According to Trump’s own school, Wharton, the super-rich win and working families lose. It’s theft in plain sight.
