Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

This is what I think, more or less verbatim, every time there's one of these episodes.

Happy Juneteenth, Illinois. It may seem the pace of progress is heartbreakingly slow, but our state has long led the nation in the fight for equality — and we won't stop now. Today, we recommit to building a brighter, fairer future for all.

I think it should be a bigger story that the Senate is preparing to confirm five Trump judicial nominees whose answers to questions about the 2020 election are exactly what you would say if you were a “Trump only lost because of voter fraud” conspiracy theorist

nonzero chance that neither the World Cup nor the 2028 Summer Olympics take place in the United States the way things are going

It’s almost like there are really good reasons legitimate law enforcement doesn’t normally operate masked and in civvies.

"...a legal path to transition." Jesus Christ, NYT. This is abhorrent.

Yes, making sure Americans have fewer days off is definitely a winning issue.

Cuomo-aligned SuperPAC

Stockton, CA: Heavily armed masked kidnappers drove up in an unmarked car and pulled a landscaper out of his truck and kidnapped him. When the landscaping company owner asked the men what they were doing, the kidnappers assaulted him and pulled out a metal baton.

I'm going to assume ICE got this idea directly from Fox News: www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cn...

What's in the Trump/GOP big, beautiful bill? -Tax cuts skewed to the rich -Medicaid & SNAP cuts -Ends IRS Direct File -New powers for Trump over the courts -Blocks state/local regulation against AI, including rent-gouging software like RealPage It's a big, ugly nightmare.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

Over on Xitter, the MAGAt US Attorney announced charges against the man who stood up for his co-workers at WalMart. There's not a shred of evidence to substantiate this charge. EVEN Essayli's video makes it quite clear ICE tackled the guy before he did anything.

So Starship Ship 36 just detonated *before* the static fire test - fueled and waiting for the test. Looks like the top tank lets go and sets off the whole stack. It would be bad enough if it let go during the static fire test, but it just blew up. And it's cooking off the fuel tanks on the pad.

Bisbee is a tiny artsy town (less than 5000 population) with a vibrant queer community near the AZ-Mexico border and a bunch of Border Patrol agents rolled up to Bisbee Pride this weekend and snatched people up right as the parade was about to kick off.

Ugly. Cruel. Un-American. Not who we are.👇 people.com/mom-and-past...

He risked his life for our soldiers on the battlefield in Afghanistan. He was their translator.

Sending a trading partner a letter is to a trade negotiation deal as masturbation is to sex: Whatever you're imagining, you're not actually involving the other party, and you're not exploring gains from trade.

BREAKING: @ajc.com obtained body camera footage from the June 14 arrest of Spanish-speaking journalist Mario Guevara by the Doraville Police Department while he was livestreaming "No Kings Day" protests in suburban Atlanta Guevara is now in ICE custody and may be deported to El Salvador.

Which, for those who don’t know, is undeniably illegal. Even DHS *grudgingly* admits that the statute giving Congress oversight of ICE facilities—passed in the wake of Trump 1.0 bc of, you know, all this the first time—does not give ICE the right to deny MOCs access, ever.

If there's one legacy of the War in Iraq that Democrats should have internalized, it's the fact that those who lined up behind the war drums all came to regret that decision while those who wisely refused to go along were soon vindicated. One of the latter rode that decision to the White House!

JD joining Bluesky just to write anti-trans posts while the admin prepares to bomb a major Middle Eastern power just tells us all he's not in the room where it happens.

I’m really gobsmacked that folks don’t think there’s de jure discrimination against trans people. Just look at the deluge of laws targeting them. Be so fucking serious, Amy Coney Barrett.

Don’s right. Trumpism not just permits, but demands, overt hostility to a wide array of American values, institutions, culture, and people. Trumpism hates much more of America than it loves.

The trump White House commenting on a story we are running shortly that it is a “dumb and fake story”, so please read and share it knowing that i, and my @rollingstone.com colleagues, are Dumb and Fake. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Mario Guevara, the influential Spanish-language journalist who livestreamed his own arrest at a weekend protest outside Atlanta, will now have to fight in immigration court for his right to remain in the country and ward off deportation. ajc.com/news/2025/06...

#Republicans say they’re targeting just criminals and gang members. Bullsh*t. They’re targeting anyone who “looks illegal” for their 3,000 a day quota, no matter what. And masked #ProudBoys and #OathKeepers get to decide who that is! “The homegrowns are next.” - DT, 04/14/25 #MAGAKidnappers

CLARIFICATION : The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline. They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY So spread this around They can be texted. They can be called.

The problem with the Democratic establishment calling trans rights a distraction is that it isn't one, but I'd also like to add: a distraction from what? Because it doesn't seem like you guys are busy doing anything else. It seems like there's room in your schedule

Fascism coming fast to the US

When ICE agents look like this, it is ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for state and local law enforcement to step in and demand they identify themselves and show judicial warrants before detaining anyone from an immigration court. Democratic mayor and governors can take action on this.

Spotted over the Golan. Sources identified it as a B-2 though it looks more like a B-21

ok this is getting seriously creepy and not fun any more
