The most important words of our Constitution are the first three: We the People. We have no Kings here, no monarchs, no slaves and no subjects. We the People.

Sen. Patty Murray on the Padilla incident: "I have been here for more than 32 years. I have come to this floor often to speak out, to be angry, to be a voice for my people. I have never come this close to having tears in my eyes … We are a democracy, but we can lose that democracy."

What’s next, brown shirts? What do Republican colleagues have to say? At long last, colleagues, have you no sense of decency?

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

We are marching to Senator Thune’s office. There must be accountability for the detainment of a Senator. This is not normal.

What happened to Sen. Padilla is a disgrace. Elected officials are supposed to speak for the people. When the government starts throwing Senators to the ground for doing that, we’ve left democracy behind. You don’t have to wonder what a fascist regime looks like. This is it.

THIS A UNITED STATES SENATOR ELECTED BY THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA BEING PHYSICALLY SHOVED OUT OF A MEETING ABOUT WHAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS DOING TO THE BIGGEST CITY IN OUR STATE.

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

I hear calls for “civility” I believe that many of us are mistaking docility for civility

Cuomo already sounds defeated by Trump's authoritarianism. I will stand up for our city of immigrants because I'm not funded by the very same MAGA billionaires who put Trump back in the White House.

NEWSOM: “.. California may be first, but it clearly won’t end here. .. Other states are next. Democracy is next.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/06/10/u...

This is a superb speech by @governor.ca.gov just now. Clear. Strong. Simple. Direct. Angry—in a way that appeals to the best in people, not the worst. Seven plus minutes of the most effective rhetoric in response to Trump. This is how you want a leader to talk. www.youtube.com/watch?v=linJ...

Even in supposedly protected regions free of pesticides, insects numbers are falling at a catastrophic rate due to the worsening climate crisis — marking a “new era” of ecological collapse, says scientists. #GreenSky #Biodiversity

BREAKING: Citing trade wars, the World Bank sharply downgrades the global economic growth forecast for this year.

NYT: “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.” 😳🇺🇸 www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/o...

Sometimes reducing your home's energy use can be as simple as opening a window or buying tape. Here are five easy ways to have a more climate-friendly home and save on energy bills at the same time.

I joined Twitter to follow this account about nine years ago. This is disturbing.

Holy shit…of course RFK Jr. just took this moment while everyone is focused on LA to fire all 17 members of the CDC's expert panel of vaccine advisers….citing conflicts of interest and will probably replace them with his raw milk drinking bootlickers www.cnn.com/2025/06/09/h...

Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in California is not about the protests. It is about expanding his never-ending grasp for more power. It is about moving this country toward authoritarianism. All Americans must stand together against this gross abuse of power.

Protesters Urged Not To Give Trump Administration Pretext For What It Already Doing

PELOSI: “Now we have seen the President of the United States say that he would arrest a sitting American governor... This is the hallmark of authoritarianism on the road to tyranny – and all Americans should be shocked and appalled by the President’s blatant disregard for our Constitutional system."

That’s a catheter, right?

1/4 At ICE’s Krome Detention Camp in Florida, Cuban immigrants formed a human "SOS" on the patio—desperate to alert the world. The facility is nearly 200% over capacity. Built for 600, it now holds 1,700. People sleep on floors, eat only a cup of rice a day, and go without medical care.
