#ProudBlue The poles have changed in the Trump regime. We used to agree that we are a nation of laws, the voice of the People matters, that members of gov't follow the Constitution. "Conservative" & "Liberal" operated within that framework. Trumpism tosses the whole "rule of law" out the window.

Remember if you’re at the “big insurrection” in LA to support small businesses.

Good info if you're planning to participate in protests this weekend or any other time.

TORRANCE: ICE sighting at harbor-UCLA, a doctor on site confirmed they are there. (if they are going to raid a fucking hospital i s2g)

RESULT: Democrats defend a legislative seat in Oklahoma (HD71) by a massive margin, 85% to 15%. This was a district that voted for Harris by 19% in November, so this is a huge shift toward Dems of 51 percentage points.

Do You Agree With Senator Fetterman? Nope 👎

It can happen here. It is happening here.

Foster Children Removed for Deportation 😢

No context for this, just a heads up: the secure USAF high frequency network used for strategic and nuclear command is now active, with two callsigns Rhetoric and Compress. Can’t tell right now if it’s high-level ops or routine. You have been informed.

Love him or hate him, you have to give full credit to Gavin Newsom. He's aware that the only way to accomplish anything when you are being bullied is to stand up to the bully. Bullies are only as good as your weakness is for them to build strength on. Telling the orange cheeto's cabinet members

US says it will cut aid to Kyiv. Krasnov demonstrating beyond doubt that he is a Russian asset.

Breaking news: Harvey Weinstein has been convicted by a New York jury of one charge of committing a criminal sexual act in his sexual assault retrial, a decision that comes more than a year after his 2020 conviction was overturned.

And take your family with you too…

Make sure to tune into tomorrows Oversight hearing at 10AM ET to catch @oversightdemocrats.house.gov and I talking to governors from across the nation about what they’re seeing in their communities in the face of the Trump administration’s mass deportations. www.youtube.com/live/NupsVDX...

🚨 HEADS UP! 🚨 Rumor is that on June 14th, Proud Boys, & alt-right groups plan to infiltrate protests, attack the police, and destroy property. If violence breaks out at your protest, sit DOWN. Leave only provocateurs standing. Share far and wide. Do not let them provoke you! @indivisible.org

As a native Arkansan, this made me laugh out loud. Did you know her brother tortured and killed a dog but got off because their dad was the Governor? You can get away with rape and murder in that state as long as you’re kin to someone at the courthouse. Sarah is full of shit.

Juvenal works in the fields of Salinas CA he says: At this time of year I'm harvesting lettuce by hand. It's very tiring work. I have to spend 8 hours a day, 5 days a week bent over harvesting the crop. #WeFeedYou

This Trump voter says he has “a little buyer’s remorse” after ICE detained a third of the workers at his small roofing company. He thought the Trump administration would only deport criminals.

Happening now at the maine state house - Maine farmers are rallying together ✊

This video speaks for itself...

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced Tuesday that she signed an executive order seeking greater transparency from federal immigration officials. She said the city will submit regular Freedom of Information Act requests to find out who ICE is detaining and on what grounds.

Paul McCartney born June 18, 1942 Brian Wilson born June 20, 1942 The two greatest bass playing composers in R&R born 48 hours apart. RIP Brian. Thanks for 60+ years of magic.

CA Gov. Gavin Newsom: This is about all of us. This is about you. California may be first, but it clearly will not end here. Other states are next. Democracy is next."

He added, “I can tell you that if they try to do that in Mobile, Alabama, the orthopedic hand surgeons will have one hell of a weekend fixing hands. That barricade can become a weapon.” www.al.com/news/2025/06...

If anyone following works at CBC News (or any of its offshoots) or CBC Radio-Canada (or or any of its offshoot), I hope you push for them to start posting here. It could make a significance difference if you want this site to succeed. They need legit places like that.

So it begins. Discussions are underway within the administration, and Pentagon, about deploying National Guard or active-duty troops to cities beyond Los Angeles. We’ll be sending updated guidance to all coalition members. Please follow every step, even if some sections seem irrelevant right now.

Earlier this year I wrote about Stephen Miller's whole deal—how his privileged upbringing in Santa Monica was shaped from the beginning by the labor of Latin American immigrants, and how he experienced status anxiety when his family had to live among them. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Not burning down.

If Maine and California withhold taxes😆😆😆😆 That’s the end of the game ❤️

Ukraine cripples Russian weapons production with coordinated strikes on microchip plants. Russia's strategic bomber fleet faces potential collapse as coordinated cyber and physical attacks target the factories producing essential microelectronics. euromaidanpress.com/2025/06/11/f...

I thought the Marines swore an oath to the Constitution, not to a king, not to a party, and certainly not to an autocrat. Any leader who demands blind loyalty to themselves over the rule of law is unfit to command. Demand our service members defend democracy, not the oppressors.
