NEW: Lawyers for Abrego Garcia have asked Judge Xinis to consider the CRIME-FRAUD EXCEPTION to the government's privilege assertions in discovery. Plus, NEWLY UNSEALED DOCUMENTS. I don't think contempt is off the table yet. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/newly-unse...

Vancouver’s kind of nice

This Pride Month, we're proud to recognize Democratic LGBTQIA+ Co-Chair, Sen. Claire Wilson. Representing the 30th LD, Sen. Wilson is a powerful voice for justice, education, and equity. From ending solitary confinement for youth to expanding early learning with the Fair Start for Kids Act.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 85 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (or, today, a video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Of course the LA Times makes it look like a full on riot instead of showing that the mostly peaceful protesters were literally and constantly assaulted by ICE agents. The majority of fires that were started weren’t by the public but by ICE firing into the crowds and canisters starting fires. 🧵

She has short bowel syndrome, and only the U.S. offers the treatment that keeps her alive. But her family’s humanitarian parole was suddenly revoked. Now, two months later, DHS has reversed course.

Successful #WearOrange event this morning despite the thunderstorms. Volunteers from Charles & Prince George’s Counties in Maryland were out in force to support Donna & DMV Mothers Like Me! #WeCanEndGunViolence @momsdemand.bsky.social @everytown.bsky.social @ivey.house.gov

This literally happened to me with a friend who, after being in a D&D group! And everything! For years! turned to me at brunch and said “Do you actually know my real name?” For a brief moment, my fursona was a deer in the headlights.

The White House wants to defund public stations like WFUV. Congress is now getting ready, in the days ahead, to take back funding that was already promised to stations this fall. Find out what you can do to help — stand up for WFUV today. wfuv.org/standup

“Los Angeles is a microcosm of the United States. If L.A. falls, the country falls.” — Ice-T

Gavin Newsom needs to get to Los Angeles now and take control of what is happening He must not allow feds to come in unless they have the Constitution in hand. All officers must be UNMASKED, with identifiable badge number and name plate!!

My high school (just south of LA) graduating class was larger than the planned National Guard deployment. This is a test for Newsom and Bass— nothing more. If they fail to meet the moment things will get worse for the rest of the state. For everyone's sake I hope they step up to the plate and lead

Los Angeles is not a stranger to this sort of thing. I’m proud of them and afraid for them both.

Republicans vowed to not to touch Medicaid and Medicare. Surprising no one: their Big Ugly Bill would cut both. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

Happy Pride Hazel Park! 🏳️‍🌈 I love joining together with so many great leaders here in Michigan to raise the Pride flag and celebrate our wonderful and welcoming community.

As the federal government conducts chaotic immigration sweeps across the country, the state is deploying additional CHP to maintain safety on Los Angeles highways to keep the peace. It's not their job to assist in federal immigration enforcement.

Cannot stress enough that this is a pitiful action by a weak, scared, pathetic group of insecure, wannabe authoritarians, and they should be mocked until the end of time for wanting to bring in the military over some people protesting them at a Home Depot.

🧵 Earlier this week, in honor of #PrideMonth, I shared an article about Ogunquit, a small Maine town where the courage and conviction of local residents helped make it a haven for the LGBTQIA+ community. It’s a spirit that can be felt throughout our state. (1/8)

Fake emergencies to justify crackdowns-not very original

California representatives did a check in where migrants were being detained. They found no beds, no food and no water. Children were among the detained.

History has its eyes on you.

Breaking news: In a rematch of their 2023 U.S. Open final, Coco Gauff beat top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka to win the French Open. She is its first American champion since Serena Williams in 2015.

On US 2 eastbound just east of 88th St SE (MP 9) there is a collision blocking the lane.

The military isn’t being employed to carry out an immigration policy. The immigration policy, and especially the way the administration is choosing to carry it out, is an excuse to call out the military.

ICE vs. Citizens of LA

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

ICE Arrests David Huerta, Beloved Labor Leader and SEIU California President truthout.org/articles/ice...

Listen folks, don't let a protest turn into a riot. That plays right into Donald Trump's tiny little hands

On the I-5 northbound off-ramp to S Columbian Way (MP 163) there is a disabled vehicle partially blocking the ramp.

The world is watching. And we have friends everywhere. Upload everything, every moment. Don’t give them the chance to twist the truth. We have people on the way to help. You’re not alone. ✊🌙💚

You know how the hero who punched Richard Spencer on camera was never found? And how great that was? Leave the skater punk alone. Let him become an archetype.

Congratulations, Coco Gauff! You played an amazing match. Outplayed your opponent like the champion you are

David Huerta peacefully stood up for his community during an ICE raid, and was forcefully injured and unjustly arrested. As educators and union members, we stand with David, @seiuca.bsky.social, and demand an end to these inhumane attacks. Where they bring terror, we bring solidarity.

Next Saturday, stand with folks everywhere to peacefully protest Trump’s illegal power grabs. We’re a democracy, not a monarchy. Say it loud: NO KINGS! To find an event near you, visit: www.mobilize.us/nokings/

In a democracy, you don't face "consequences" for opposing an elected leader. www.npr.org/2025/04/22/n...

This, Gavin, is what a leader does.

We don't have secret police in America. At least we're not supposed to.

Inevitably RFK Jr will step to a mic and claim science shows vaccines cause autism. Only a matter of time. Honest questions: 1. How do scientists prepare the response for that moment? 2. What does that response look like now, then, and after? 3. How can non vaccine experts (like myself) help?
