Navarro: I'm very happy to see somebody that isn't afraid to speak up and call an authoritarian an authoritarian. And if it's Newsom, as a result of what's happening in California now, I welcome it because I have been so thirsty for somebody that is not cowardly

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

What’s the real difference between the National Guard and active duty troops—and why does it matter in LA? Trump just federalized the California Guard against the governor’s wishes, a rare move not seen since 1965. Here’s what you need to know: youtu.be/B7NRZrTzZuM

Q: The president said that if he were Tom Homan he would arrest Gavin Newsom. Do you believe Newsom should face consequences in a legal way? MIKE JOHNSON: Um, that's not my lane. I'm not gonna give you legal analysis on whether Gavin Newsom should be arrested. But he ought to be tar and feathered.

“If you saw all this in any other country — soldiers sent to crush dissent, union leaders arrested, opposition politicians threatened — it would be clear that autocracy had arrived. The question, now, is whether Americans who hate tyranny can be roused to respond.” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/o...

“We don’t need another king, another tyrant, another dictator.” — U.S. Army Veteran, 101st Airborne We took an oath to the Constitution—not to serve the ambitions of any one man. What’s happening isn’t national defense. It’s a warning sign.

Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree w/ this admin on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake...cancer, your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute"

Several thousand now marching through Lower Manhattan after a rally against ICE arrests at federal buildings in NYC

Super late to the party on this, but I don’t think it matters what kind of bullets that cop shot the Australian reporter with. Cops have no business shooting reporters in the first place.

He stood in front of our troops today and gave a mean spirited, partisan speech. He stood in front of our troops today and attacked Americans by name. He stood in front of our troops today and goaded them into booing their fellow Americans. Never become desensitized to this.

Meiselas: Terry Moran, if you’re listening, we’ve just learned that your agreement has apparently been terminated by ABC. We want you to know—you will always have a place here at The MeidasTouch Network.

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.

Yes, this is correct— be on the lookout for infiltrators seeking to sabotage peaceful protests. I wouldn’t be one bit surprised if the intelligence agencies, run by totally corrupt sycophants, loyal to Trump and not the Constitution, have been strategizing this for some time now.

I like this Gavin more than podcast Gavin.

She was right.

What standing up to ICE looks like. #Resist

Absolutely grotesque abuse of government power. Lying to educators in order to entrap children. No wonder they want to hide their identity.

A message to Marines at Camp Pendleton

ICE agents concealing their faces: Can they really do that?

👏👏👏👏

Exactly.

🚨HAPPENING NOW🚨 Los Angeles is turning out and calling for the liberation of SEIU President #DavidHuerta What happened to David on Friday is about more than just a single leader. It is a direct assault on all of us who believe in the fundamental American right to stand up for justice

she’s got a point

"Sounds like all three to me" -- Pete Hegseth suggests the United States is under invasion by a foreign nation, prompting the need for troops in Los Angeles

A growing number of military veterans and serving officers have spoken out against Trump’s decision to deploy marines and National Guard troops to LA, calling it a misuse of executive power that puts soldiers’ lives at risk. on.ft.com/4jHG5lm

When I see videos or photos like this, all I can think about is how at some point, this kid and his mom were in a store and saw that shirt and he liked it or thought it was cool so she bought it to make him happy.

If MyPillowGuy Mike Lindell loses his election rigging defamation trial in Denver, this will be the day that did it. And the witness who sealed his fate? Himself.

It is genuinely impressively to be so disliked that 35,000 bar members bother to vote in a bar election, which ranks somewhere below dentist visit in list of fun stuff to do.

Gavin Newsom is responding to red state critics who represent states with higher murder rates than California, including Mike Johnson (Louisiana) and Tommy Tuberville (Alabama).

why is the president the only person testing the limits of his power? everyone should see what they can get away with. what if zookeepers gave helicopters to gorillas? nobody has tried this

If you want to understand why LA residents feel under attack, undercover DHS agents lying about their identity and authorizations to try to kidnap LA children seems a good start. People just do not understand the attacks LA is under by Trumpists right now.

This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊

I’m not sure why Gavin Newsome doesn’t activate the rest of his army guard to prevent the president from it or force him to overrule it…. Then fight on the second amendment guaranteeing a state a right to a militia. How can a state have a militia if the president can simply federalize it

Stand back. Rescind this illegal, and immoral order. The absurdity of threatening the people of the United States with their own military— Act like the Commander-in-Chief. If you want to be president, at least try to play the part. Fake it, if nothing else. Stand back— We’ll clean up your mess.

MAGA doesn't realize California is the 4th largest economy in the world, is the most populous state, and gives money to the federal government that red states rely upon for survival. Alas.

Barragán: "This is not an effort to really get criminals. It's an effort to see 'let's see who we can sweep up along the way.' Why are they doing this? Bc this president said he was going to deport millions & the numbers have not been adding up. There aren't that many serious criminal offenders."

Donald is deploying 700 marines to LA because he desperately wants something awful to happen so he can declare martial law in time for his birthday military parade which cost taxpayers $45 million.

Profiles in Courage

It’s not a surprise that the man who purposely incited a violent attempt to overthrow an American election would now purposely incite violence on the streets of Los Angeles as a justification for military force against American citizens. Not a surprise at all.

Protesters being arrested in Dallas now

You need all hands on deck, full-scale resistance. Every institution, every organization, every sector needs to speak out and resist Trump's fascist regime. Each act of resistance causes a crack in the regime, slows down the machine, and eventually...with time...they will collapse.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
