Spot the differences…

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

Yet another lie. 🤥 www.mediaite.com/media/tv/lap...

Veteran reminds active duty Marines to uphold the standard and refuse any illegal order to harm US civilians. #NoKings

A friend just asked me what I do to stay hopeful and I told him one of my favorite strategies…I stay hopeful by remembering that no one has any idea what the fuck is going to happen, so as long as we don’t know, we gotta do what we can.

Along with abolishing ICE we should abolish all for-profit prison companies in the country.

Every major Dem politician needs to realize that, in this environment, they can schedule a "speech to the nation," like Newsom did, and get tons of media coverage. Just do it.

Newsom: "Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived. He's taking a wrecking ball to our Founding Father's historic project."

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Today RFK Jr. fired every member of ACIP, the CDC committee that makes vaccine recommendations. Children will die. This is not ok. Lindsey Graham enabled this.

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.

The President of the United States is advocating for arresting the duly-elected Governor of California for his SPEECH He thereafter admitted that the Governor of California had committed NO CRIME—but he still wants him arrested Spend as much time as you need processing what that means for America

This stuff doesn’t look very protect-and-serve-y

this is good

CNN’s reporter on scene in Los Angeles: I’m being detained..

NPR just reported from overcrowded ice detention facilities that ice admits are overcrowded that the idea is to barely feed people and hold them for a year so that their better choice, warranted or not, is to ask to be deported. We are starving people into submission

This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the Constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support, you don't have to go through with it. ☎️ 1-877-447-4487 From #veterans to #activeduty personnel.

This is precisely correct.

We’re deeply disappointed in much of the U.S. media. Grateful, however, to international journalists who are telling the truth.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.

Dozens of journalists were assaulted by law enforcement in Los Angeles this weekend. The press were just doing their job -- a sacred one explicitly protected by law. Press rights orgs will follow up collectively tomorrow. Tonight, I emailed evidence to local/state/federal officials. My sign off:

Federal lawmakers say they have been denied access to an ICE facility in CA

The greta video

"Did the National Guard need to come to California?" @gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Of course not. Trump flamed the fires. This is exactly what he wanted. This is what he intended by illegally acting to federalize the National Guard. We're going to be initiating a lawsuit first thing tomorrow morning."
