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.

Under the Geneva conventions, the “recommendations” for the application of kinetic projectiles (such as the Model 1325) discourage police from aiming at protesters’ faces, as they could result in “skull fractures and brain damage, eye damage (including permanent blindness) and even death.”

As of June 1, nearly 25% of the people arrested by ICE in the interior and sent to detention had NO CRIMINAL RECORD. Data from the last six years, including 1.5 years of Trump's first term, reveals how this is completely unprecedented. It also helps explain the growing backlash.

A tiny sliver of good news, MAGA’s attempt to take over the DC Bar (disciplinary body for attys admitted in DC) was a categorical failure. Pam Bondi’s brother lost his bid for President of the bar and Ed Martin’s assistant lost her bid for treasurer. Last year 8k lawyers voted, this year 38k

You know when things were pretty quiet and peaceful in L.A.? Before ICE started arresting residents who were bothering no one and going to their jobs. And before DHS and National Guard troops showed up and made the situation worse. Of course Trump and Stephen Miller want the situation to get worse.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

Joe Biden says he's started treatment for his prostate cancer and the prognosis is good. Donald Trump says Biden was executed in 2020 and was replaced with a legion of clones. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to believe.

This is what "anti-DEI" means to the Trump administration. It's not "some corporate DEI measures are pointless or counterproductive," it's "women and people of color are presumptively unqualified for important government jobs"

For their limited filibuster carveout, the goal was to allow for additional pollution. For their Byrd rule violations, it's to make unpaid-for tax cuts permanent and to allow for them to be more expensive then they'd budgeted for.

Under the Trump regime, immigrants seeking legal status are being turned away, delayed, or trapped. Even those following the rules - applying for citizenship, asylum, or green cards - are now targets. ICE waits outside appointments, then disappears them. #3E #FuckICE #AbolishICE
