Nancy By Ernie Bushmiller June 10,1965

I live in Los Angeles. This city is not on fire. The majority of protestors are non-violent/not destructive. The narratives put forth by major media is misinformation via select visual representation. This city is functioning, the people rightfully demand justice, and Donald Trump is a terrorist.

RIP Sly Stone. I love his music. In particular, I can listen to “Fresh” for days on end. Rarely has a musician played it so loose and so right. Incredible, rare talent.

Donald Trump’s presidency has destabilized the entire planet.

I’m inclined to agree.

What is happening in Los Angeles is terrorism. ICE is a terrorist organization. Snatching people willingly walking into courthouses for immigration hearings is horrifying. Separating families is inhuman. Every single person in America should be horrified by this administration’s actions.

ICE is a criminal/terrorist organization.

Most of my life, I was annoyed by The Clash. Mostly by Joe Strummer really. But as time has passed, I’ve grown to respect and appreciate him. I appreciate the plain but poetic way he could get slash to the heart of the matter with some deep humanity. youtube.com/shorts/Dpbg3...

Donald Trump Is A Terrorist.

DELETED: Trump administration deleted a webpage summarizing evidence that “undocumented immigrants are arrested at less than half the rate of native-born U.S. citizens for violent and drug crimes and a quarter the rate of native-born citizens for property crimes.” 1/2

My friend Tim Kinsella and I had a conversation on Talkhouse wherein we discuss a bunch of stuff in anticipation of our upcoming tour (dates in thread). A real slice of life-type piece, as they say… www.talkhouse.com/tim-kinsella...

Why is this not front-page news? Where is the outrage and alarm?

The assemblage of a fully sadistic, racist, criminal organization masquerading as a Presidential administration continues… www.npr.org/2025/05/30/n...

Corporate America = Death

This guy personifies MAGA. A bunch of fucking babies. This guy is (performatively) whining about how tough his job on National TV. After going on and on about punishing other Americans for years. Seriously… It’s time to get real. The true snowflakes of this world. Also…Tea and crumpets?

It is sickening to watch as innocent humans are ripped from their lives here in America, dehumanized by deportation as Trump pardons and frees actual convicted criminals who have committed real crimes against other Americans they’ve been found guilty of by federally appointed American judges.

An ever growing list on “Non-compliant words” that can get funding yanked from Non-profit/501c3 orgs by this fascist administration. Sent to me by a fiend at an org threatened. They are chipping away at democracy piece by piece. I still don’t think this is being taken seriously enough.

I watched the Paul Reubens/Pee Wee Herman doc late last night. Obviously and sadly, I knew how it would end. But I didn’t anticipate being moved by it like I was. I strongly recommend a viewing if you have the access to it. The overall message is much bigger than the specific subject.

"We are free as bodies, or not at all. And so health care is a right, one of the most basic... Dying senselessly is no act of freedom. And too many people in the USA do die senselessly because we have the wrong idea of freedom." www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Stunning. May was brutal for Trump in federal court: 96% loss rate ⚖️. Even GOP-appointed judges have ruled against the admin 72% of the time. District courts are doing their job defending the Constitution. Soon the Supreme Court may be the only court unwilling to defend the rule of law.

These man-pigs are just “doing their jobs”. They must be camped out at McDonald’s in between life-ruinings.

You have to be so fucked up and sadistic to delight in putting another person in a cage or dropping a bomb on a city. They may be “necessary” to your views of security and society, but you are not supposed to enjoy it.

I guess this sort of thing doesn’t count as wasteful use of taxpayer dollars? What’re there? Eleven vehicles? youtube.com/shorts/oZHkU...

Trump is golfing today and hasn’t said a single word about the lives lost in these Tornados. Counties that overwhelmingly cast their votes for him. And he’ll still have their vote.

I rarely write about this because the words escape me in the hopelessness… Isreal’s genocidal terror attacks on the Palestinian civilian population are some of the worst crimes against humanity ever committed. And what makes it all most confounding is that we’re all watching it every single day.
