Read my statement on the sickening assault of Senator @padilla.senate.gov by the Trump administration.

What happened today should outrage every American — and it's part of a broader pattern of dictator-like moves from Trump's lawless administration. I'm on the Senate floor now to stand with @padilla.senate.gov and condemn this assault on our democracy:

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

The right to peacefully protest is fundamental. It is in the Constitution. No president can nullify it—because in the United States of America, we have no kings. Join @indivisible.org and more this weekend to make your voice heard: www.nokings.org

President Trump’s federal agents are now chasing migrant farm workers through fields — and circling them with a CBP chopper normally used to track smuggling at the border — in the heart of the nation’s agricultural economy. here’s my report from Ventura County, California.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: The overwhelming majority of protesters in Los Angeles have been peaceful. But you would not know that from watching Fox News.

Here’s a video of Stephen Miller in high school screaming that he’s “sick and tired of being told to pick up my trash, when we have plenty of janitors who are paid to do it for us.” This is the sociopath shaping our immigration policy and so much more

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."

@governor.ca.gov is doing a phenomenal job explaining what Trump is ding and congress is not doing!!! Well done

chemical warfare

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence. It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

The felon has lost. He knows it. Because there’s one thing in this country that you cannot stop - American grit. From Maya Angelou to John Wayne, this country has proven time and again that we are unbreakable.

🚨🚨🚨 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did 🚨🚨🚨

If you’re watching @maddow.msnbc.com’s A Block you understand that people who stand up for other people can change the course of those people’s lives & our history. We have the power to refuse Trump’s path forward. Protesting actually works. Let’s go.

In 2024, we warned of the darkness of a future Trump dictatorship. Jailing leaders of American cities, disappearing dissenters, and using military force to harm Americans. That future is on our doorstep. But we can stop it. Don't be afraid to exercise your power and tell Trump enough is enough.

This is what trumpets voted for. Reason I will never associate w any of them

Fam, you can leave a comment about the upcoming ACIP meeting at the link below. I just did so, recommending RFK Jr.’s removal from office for firing every member of ACIP, to which I referred as an offense against science, medicine, and humanity. www.regulations.gov/search?filte...

Look at this video--esp slow mo at end. The police officer intentionally shot the reporter!!!!

It’s the police and ice that are being violent

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.

Protestors were not violent. It was the ice agents that were aggressive.

Jon is a Marine Corps veteran who served at Camp Pendleton. Here’s what he thinks of Pete Hegseth’s threats to deploy Marines in Los Angeles.

Donald Trump has become convinced that Republicans cannot win the midterms, and that a blue wave would effectively end his presidency and confront him with two years of investigations and impeachment proceedings. He needs martial law as an excuse to cancel the midterms. So America is on a clock now.

Undocumented immigrants contribute nearly $100 billion in taxes annually. Meanwhile, the top 1% dodge $163 billion every year. It’s not immigrants exploiting the system — it’s the ultra-wealthy.
