Newsom: "Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived. He's taking a wrecking ball to our Founding Father's historic project."

look who learned what 86 means

As the US Army celebrates it 250th birthday, Trump is celebrating the enemy that tried to defeat it.

ICE Releases Gavin Newsom Beheading Video

CNN: Section 12406 says 'orders for these purposes shall be issued through the governors of the states.' Were these orders issued through Gov. Gavin Newsom? DHS OFFICIAL TRICIA McLAUGHLIN: They are issued by the president of the United States

Just a gal.

*amazing*

Notable clip today👇 in light of the news that the Trump administration successfully pressured ABC into suspending Moran

ICE isn’t rounding up migrants at Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ meatpacking plants. They're provoking riots in Los Angeles. I wonder, is this provocation laying the groundwork for a pretext to declare martial law? And then I remember all those many tanks shipped to DC, the home of so many protests.

PRO PUBLICA: Of the 238 men sent to an El Salvador mega prison, only 6 had prior violent crime convictions. 0 were on the gang member list. 130 had no criminal history. 32 had minor offenses. All 238 thought they were being sent back to Venezuela. www.instagram.com/p/DKcjM7FPhz...

In which Josh Hawley tries to make an argument he knows is bogus and gets called out on it by @kateshaw.bsky.social and is left with no viable response other than to raise his voice and try to use volume and bullying in place of honest reasoning. Kind of a metaphor for Hawley's career.

Are we great yet?

I know I keep coming back to this, but it’s like the head of Red Lobster being unaware that there’s a “Lobsterfest.”
