Marco Rubio needs to be asked whether he believes his grandfather who remained in the U.S. after receiving a deportation order from our govt should have been treated the way the father of 3 Marines was treated by ICE this weekend in California. ASK HIM. Make him confront his lack of character.

This is the kind of excessive force case DOJ routinely prosecutes. They should open an investigation here, based on the misconduct not the victims status.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

These are not police. By law, they have to identify. If they won’t—copy their plates, call the actual police and let them know you are witnessing armed police impersonators.

Federal agents thought they could stay at LA-area hotels. Communities are trying to make sure they can’t. When feds checked into a Pasadena hotel, they didn’t expect 100s of protesters and a day laborers’ band, the tactic that kicked them out is spreading. lapublicpress.org/2025/06/fede...

Heat index is high the next few days. While watering this evening, I sat, pruned and added support for my tomatoes. Lots of cucumbers coming too! Today, I sat and harvested lettuce and spinach (winter sown by me), and a few sugar snap peas for salads this hot weekend. #Selfcare #MentalHealth

COVID in mid-May, never fully recovered. Got sick again. Been almost an entire month of congestion, lung issues—getting winded quickly, sore throat, extreme fatigue, horrible headache. Got antibiotics, tapering dose of steroids and breathing treatments at home (DuoNebs). One day and feeling better!

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.
