Newsom: Trump completely lied. He said in a tweet everything is safe. Is that the case Mr. Trump? It’s his mess, we’re trying to clean up.

Newsom: This guy has 90 days, 90 beautiful deals. How many deals? Zero.. The UK? Give me a break.

Newsom: "Arrest me. Let's just get it over with, tough guy. I don't give a damn ... Tom, arrest me. Let's go."

Exactly.

To anyone who wondered, what could go wrong if we elected as president a highly volatile, deeply dishonest, simple-minded cretin with a revenge fetish, the answer is THIS. All of THIS.

In a world full of Stephen Millers, be a Terry Moran.

Be prepared. Do not violate the Constitution.

Did you know that when Pam Bondi said "We presented El Salvador with an arrest warrant and they agreed to return him," she was admitting she failed to follow the extradition process, proving he could have been returned at any time? My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/abrego-gar...

Rep. Gomez: LA County alone is 34% foreign born, 34%. So when he says they're going to liberate us, who is he going to liberate us from? Ourselves?

Q: "Could we really see active duty Marines on the streets of Los Angeles?" Johnson: "I don't think that's heavy handed." Q: "You don't think sending Marines into the streets of an American city is heavy handed?" Johnson: "We have to be prepared to do what is necessary."

It’s outrageous to suspend @terrymoranabc.bsky.social. More capitulation by ABC…

Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem goes after California Governor Gavin Newsom for his “bad decisions” in light of the current immigration protests in Los Angeles.

Trump nearly falls flat on his face while struggling to walk up the steps to Air Force One today

"They had Mexican flags!!! People should only be allowed to to have the Stars and Stripes, not flags of a countries we were once at war with!!! They should be arrested for this!!!"

Why suspend him for telling the truth??? themindshield.com/abc-news-sus...

“Pull yourself up by your bootstraps.” Literally means “try and do the impossible.” It’s not some call to face a challenge and succeed. It’s not the independent American making their way unaided through tough times. It’s an acknowledgment of a person undertaking an impossible task.

Guess we are back to that bear question again… brace yourselves!

I remember the good old days when Secretaries of Defense didn’t insert themselves unsolicited into domestic politics on a daily basis. Not what the job is supposed to be about.

Breaking: ABC News says senior national correspondent Terry Moran "has been suspended pending further evaluation." This since-deleted tweet is the reason for the suspension:

The National Guard has arrived in Los Angeles, but they were not requested by California. Both Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass made it clear that the state did not authorize or want federal troops deployed.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

Sen Bernie Sanders (I-VA) just now on CNN: "We have a President moving this country rapidly into authoritarianism. He's suing media who criticize him. He's going after law firms that have clients who were against him. He's suing universities who teach courses he doesn't like"

LAWSKY: I see a lot of folks hoping Abrego Garcia will sue Bondi for defamation. I don’t think he can sue her for defamation, but if she drops the charges, I think maybe he can sue for false arrest. Do I have that right? Thanks!

What happened to states’ rights, Kristi?

He shouldn’t have taken the post down. He’s a reporter. And he was reporting facts.

Whenever law enforcement agents are given a quota of a specific number of people to arrest or detain, especially with the WH policy director screaming at their superiors to hit those target numbers, bad things are going to happen. Quotas always result in civil rights violations.

Doesn’t sound like we need the national guard. 🤔

This is not fucking normal and it is not fucking ok.

Can you imagine the tea party reaction if Obama had federalized the Texas national guard for domestic law enforcement? Not one of those fucking cowards will speak out against this.

Kristi Noem in Feb 2024: If Biden federalizes the National Guard [to handle border issues], we’ve got a war on our hands.”l Kristi Noem in 2025 as DHS Secretary: …federalizing the National Guard.

Trump is sending 2,000 National Guardsmen to California — a move Gov. Gavin Newsom says is "purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions." "The Guard has been admirably serving LA throughout recovery. This is the wrong mission and will erode public trust."

This entire thread is incredible. Thank you @lorennacleary.bsky.social

We are about to have a lot of National Guard ILLEGALLY on the streets of Los Angeles

I get the impulse to bring the Mexican flag to protests in LA tonight. But the optics for those who love democracy are 100%+ better if every protester is waving an American flag. There needs to be at least some strategy here, given that Trump’s whole thing is falsely claiming a “foreign invasion.”

It was heartening to realize that people all over the world see the mental instability, gross incompetence, and fascist aspirations of the person occupying the White House. It helped to dispel the feeling that we are in this historic farce alone. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/i-just-got...
