WaPo scores with worst headline: "Trump charts new territory in bypassing Newsom to deploy military personnel" .... unfuckingbelieveable

One side is an unlawfully masked, unbadged secret police rounding and arresting law-abiding essential workers to prop up a fascist regime The other side is citizens resisting an unjust government, just as MLK taught us to do. I am 100% on the side of the American people against ICE. Who's with me?

This was always where this was heading. This is we why were “hysterical” all last year. Because we study history, and we knew, this is always where this was heading.

🚨 ALERTA PHILLY 🚨 Hearing from a very credible local source that there may be ICE action tomorrow (Sunday 6/8) in the following areas: 5th and Washington Ave 7th and Snyder Ave 5th and McKean/Wolf Chinatown Let your neighbors know to stay safe and be vigilant. Be ready. Be water.

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

Returns just in from San Antonio’s election for mayor: 102K ballots just dropped (that’s the early and mail vote), and Dem Gina Ortiz Jones leads 52.2% to 47.8% over her GOP opponent. (In the first round last month, early/mail was roughly two-thirds of the total vote.)

Pretty clearly setting the stage to use the Insurrection Act to crack down on domestic protests within the US.

“It’s impossible to get him back from El Salvador until we manufacture a criminal charge” is a hell of an argument

Pam Bondi is thug scum. The Attorney General making these comments about a defendant in a federal criminal case is lawless. This administration’s unethical hacks continue to demonstrate that they want to be deposits.

These allegations are serious: that Abrego Garcia transported undocumented immigrants illegal firearms, and narcotics from TX to MD on over 100 trips. What's important is that the government will have to present their evidence and that Abrego Garcia will have his day in court. He gets due process.

This is an insane perversion of the powers entrusted to a president. What law did those students break? How exactly do they threaten national security? If a president allowed to lawlessly destroy any private institution he hates, United States democracy has ended. Take action to save it.

My theory: Musk is throwing this tantrum because he can. He’s attacking the bill enough on Twitter to get it changed in some substantial but arbitrary way, but doing it just to show he’s the boss. Trump and Musk will be back together in no time. Don’t think this represents a real change of heart.

The Trump administration sued Texas yesterday in a single-judge division in a suit that took just over six hours to produce a final judgment blocking a Texas state law. If that sounds fishy (and beneath the dignity of the federal courts) to you, it’s because it is. Me in today’s bonus “One First”:

worth remembering that when Trump announced a travel ban in 2017, people literally went to airports to protest. Eight years later, Trump announces a new one and it's not even front page news. We're the frogs and the water is getting awfully hot.

RESULT: Democrats easily defend a state House seat in South Carolina in a special election tonight. Keishan Scott, the 24-year old Dem nominee, won 71% to 29%, so by 42. (Harris had carried the district by 5% last fall; Biden won it by 15% in 2020.)
