Random Thought: The madman in The White House has mobilized federal troops on US soil versus civilians. Our worse fears may be realized if Congress and/or The Supreme Court fail to act. This is a likely violation of Posse Comitatus. www.newyorkalmanack.com/2025/06/poss...

Who is in for the change?

Now the Speaker of the House, second in line to be President of the United States, is calling for the elected leader of the 4th largest economy in the world to be publicly tortured for [checks notes] defying the treasonous whims of the wannabe dictator currently occupying the Oval Office.

Trump and his authoritarian lackeys are spreading lies about immigrant workers in Los Angeles. Know the truth.

Happy TACO TUESDAY to all those who celebrate! #Yum 😋

Today Speaker, Mike Johnson called for vigilante violence against California Governor Gavin Newsom.

I'm grateful that if I post that Stephen Miller is a hateful dickbag on social media, no one can fire me from MSW Media because I own it. I might not be your cup of tea, but thanks to all who support independent media 💙🙏

An anti-voting lawsuit filed Friday is demanding full access to Utah’s voter registration list, including records that are private or classified as protected under state law. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

BREAKING: LA solidarity protesters in Austin are occupying JJ Pickle Federal Building, which houses local ICE processing center

If the time comes, be like South Korea…

A message to our immigrant communities. ❤️

"The Real Insurrection was January 6th. This is a MAGA Authoritarian Crackdown" @libradunn1.bsky.social knows an insurrection. He was defending our democracy on January 6th as MAGA tried to overthrow an election. He has advice on how we can resist. thelefthook.substack.com/p/the-real-i...

This afternoon's rally in Pittsburgh calling to free David Huerta -- and kick out ICE in general! There were various speakers from organizations including the SEIU, Casa San José, 50501, and also City Councilor Barb Warwick, and Mayor Ed Gainey.

PHILLY: Man posing as an ICE agent robs car repair business, ties up and manhandles a woman from the Dominican Republic — “He kept saying he is immigration officer.” It was only a matter of time before these masked vigilantes breed impersonators. www.fox29.com/video/1501153

Attention protesters: If you want to avoid being arrested, simply wave a Confederate flag. You might even get VIP treatment.

this is genuinely insane. we’re going to need to jail people involved with this administration

Our firefighters have our backs — we need to have theirs. Supporting them means investing in the resources they need to help Illinoisans. For folks in communities like Bethany, our Small Equipment Grant program makes sure they have the life-saving equipment they need.

The media is going to BOTH SIDES us right into martial law

@luckyshitt.bsky.social @nicholehiltz.bsky.social @atomicdumpling.com @kimmyifuplease.bsky.social And everyone else please tag Leigh I can’t remember her tag. Needed humor break

I look forward to Stephen Miller being tried for his crimes against humanity--along with Tom Homan and Kristi Noem--and receiving the most severe penalties allowed by law.

LAPD out there like

A message from Carl Sagan from 1995—some of his last prophetic words.

AOC: “The girls are fighting, aren’t they?”

The ignorance of this administration is jaw-dropping. On Wednesday, Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA) asked Education Secretary Linda McMahon if teaching the Tulsa Race Massacre or Ruby Bridges counted as “illegal DEI.” McMahon wouldn’t give a straight yes or no. That says everything.

As LBJ said 60 years ago, freedom is not just opening the gates of opportunity. True freedom is ensuring everyone has the ability to walk through them.

Supporting Harvard! Actually I was accepted to Harvard but couldn’t afford it and my scholarships were limited because they were academic.

PRIDE MONTH DOUBLE RAINBOW IN CHICAGO HOLY SHIT

Trump regime delayed and redacted a government forecast because it predicts an increase in nation’s trade deficit in farm goods later this year. Why? This undermined Trump's lies that his policies will reduce U.S. trade imbalances. Believe NOTHING from Trump regime! www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

When @bradtakei.bsky.social and I first got together, we never imagined we’d one day celebrate Pride openly, let alone post about it on the internet. But here we are, joy and all. Happy Pride, everyone! Let’s keep showing up, speaking out, and marching forward (glitter optional, but encouraged). 🌈✨

Fantastic piece by @mollymckew.bsky.social on how Ukraine hit Russia and what the success of that drone campaign means for the war and the future of democracy.

Proud that my law firm is representing the plaintiffs in each of these lawsuits. "Since late August, three states — Louisiana, New Hampshire and Wyoming — have approved proof-of-citizenship laws, and voting rights groups have sued over them." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

America, 2025

This is the plan! ⬇️ Midterms are not going to save our Democracy!

Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK. America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

It never ceases to amaze me how century after century the masses, now including the educated masses, permit such economic inequity. In the U.S., it is yet again threatening our fragile democracy. Will there ever be change, real change?

“Reading is woke!” MTG… probably.

It seems Unbound / Boundless are saying, in statements to BBC Radio 4, essentially "Authors, if you rock the boat by speaking up you'll hurt the company and make it harder for us to pay you". To which I respond - Was there any remaining hope you were going to pay us?
