Marine veterans are speaking out against the troop deployment in Los Angeles. Across the country, they’re taking down their American flags that have flown in front of their homes for years. Remember, we have friends everywhere.

PSA: If you think a guy standing on a vandalized Waymo car with a Mexican flag is a bigger issue than the president calling for the arrest of a governor for no reason, you may have lost the plot.

Independent journalism is when you can write what Terry Moran wrote without getting in trouble. Corporate journalism is when you can’t. It’s why many left the latter for the former. I understand the rationale behind corp journalism rules, I’m just glad they don’t apply to me

This kid is someone who has lived under the threat of gun violence their entire life, and lived through hundreds of hours of active shooter drills at school. They’re built different because they had no other choice.

BREAKING: LA solidarity protesters in Austin are occupying JJ Pickle Federal Building, which houses local ICE processing center

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com That was one hell of an opening rant. Couldn't agree with you more. Thank you for never letting up about the damage the 🍊🤡 is causing.

Got that right!

My god, ICE is everywhere. This is ICE raiding a construction site in Florida. But there are hundreds of videos on social media from New York, Southern California, Minnesota, Kansas, New Jersey, everywhere. It is literally a gestapo takeover.

Newsom says he's told Trump sending 2,000 more National Guard troops to LA www.cnbc.com/2025/06/09/t...

If you're a Marine or other service member being mobilized to Los Angeles and you'd like to apply for conscientious objector status, call the GI Rights Hotline to get some guidance on your options: 1-877-447-4487

Did she…👇 Thoughts?! 🤔

Trump has already taken over NYC and now he is after LA.

Gestapo-like sh?t inside a U.S. Federal Courthouse this week. This is moments after his immigration hearing. IS THIS THE NEW AMERICA?

Nothing is more efficient than paying Dept of Education employees $21M over the last 3 months to sit idle ($7M per month). "The payments could continue for years amid a long court battle over cuts instituted by the Trump administration." GOV EFFICIENCY AT IT'S FINEST! www.cnn.com/2025/06/09/p...

The folks hollering about “family values” are out here tearing families apart with unlawful ICE raids, militarized police, & the weaponization of government. All while ripping away food & healthcare from working-class families. Are the family values in the room with us?

We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

This is precisely correct.

Let this sink in. Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence. During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

BREAKING: ABC News has suspended Terry Moran for tweeting this…👇 Spread. The. Word. Far. And. Wide. 😎✨

She was right.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Pride is a celebration. Pride is also a powerful statement about courage, community, and determination. We honor the trailblazers who came before us, join arms with those leading the fight for equality today, and empower the next generation to live boldly, freely, and with joy.

Chaos leads nowhere good.

Chicago fighting back against ICE. You love to see it 💪

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

If you had important information for voters, and kept it to yourself to sell books after it was too late, you’re not a hero. You’re an asshole.

“One Big Beautiful Bill”? Try one big, bold-faced lie. They swore this mess wouldn’t add to the deficit…but the nonpartisan budget office says otherwise. $2.4 TRILLION added to the deficit—and for what? Tax cuts for the rich.
