This was their plan. This is what they want. They picked LA on purpose.

This is what fascism looks like.

LOS ANGELES: Stay off the streets tonight. Stay home. Stay safe. Tom Homan says the National Guard might be deployed — and I’m telling you, he wants violence. They’re baiting us to react so they can escalate. Rule #1: Never protest at night. That’s when the worst happens—under cover of darkness.

I bet it'd be easier for Americans to see ICE agents as just regular folks if they weren't, you know, wearing black masks and hiding their names and identities from the public out of shame.

Literally two weeks ago Stephen Miller screamed at ICE leadership for not raiding Home Depots.

Last night ICE hit Chinatown. They pepper bombed civilians while the country was watching LAPD fire rubber bullets and tear gas downtown.

BREAKING: ICE raid and community resistance in front of Home Depot in Paramount, California.

Imagine putting on all this tactical gear and latching onto a military assault vehicle so you can storm a minimall on Sepulveda and apprehend a line cook at family restaurant.

What a vile, wasteful, anti-American disgrace this is. No one who truly loves this nation or its people should abide it.

In his first term, it was the myth of the savvy businessman. As he ran for his second, it was the myth of the "strong leader." But now, Trump’s entire persona is crumbling in real-time as he struggles to hide his profound weakness as a leader.

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to *be* law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

Imagine if President Biden, from the White House, had publicly threatened to level “very serious consequences” against the richest man alive if he *dared* to give any money to the Republican Party. It would be a scandal that would last years. That is what Trump just did with respect to Elon Musk.

The speed in which we have decayed into an open oligarchic kleptocracy is astounding

See the difference? 👀

Worth noting: ICE is conducting these prominent mass detention operations in urban settings in states like California and Illinois and apparently leaving the low-hanging fruit of major agricultural centers in places like Texas and South Dakota (home of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem) largely untouched.

ICE forced to barricade themselves inside the federal building in Los Angeles until LAPD could intervene and rescue them from the brave crowds standing up to the regime.

They never liked each other. That was all put on in a kind of corporate cross-pollination strategy. They used each other for short-term gain. And Musk appears to believe that he can regain ground in Tesla stock by distancing himself from Trump. But that albatross is firmly attached to Tesla's neck.

If you strip away the egos and shitposting, the Trump-Musk feud is really an argument over how comprehensively to screw over poor and working people—over how best to make our society a meaner, crueler, less equal, more savage place. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1962...

"Dead Man's Trigger" Yep. Or "Dead Woman's Trigger" as the case may be... Something along the lines of "If I turn up dead, give copies of this thumb drive to all media possible."

It's an incredulity fallacy anyhow. He can't imagine something happening, given his limited understanding of geopolitics -- so he concludes it didn't or couldn't have happened:

I already stopped watching CNN, apart from the few clips I see per week mostly on here. Everyone who pays for CNN via their cable TV bill are helping to fund Scott Jennings' disinformation pay. CNN can figure out why people are leaving, and remedy it by ditching that right-wing nihilistic CEO.

Abby Phillip goes off on Scott Jennings

Internal documents and former company executives reveal how Cigna doctors reject patients’ claims without opening their files. “We literally click and submit,” one former company doctor said. (Published 2023 w/ @capitolforum.bsky.social‬)

Not knowing about things doesn’t mean they’re not happening.

Bruce Springsteen slams Donald Trump as 'corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous' during latest UK concert.

Linda McMahon has never heard of the Tulsa Massacre. Congresswoman Summer Lee questions McMahon about what classes or lessons would be considered ‘illegal DEI’ under the new Trump policy.

CHICAGOIANS STANDING UP TO ICE!! Don’t let them erase this. Share this everywhere!

None of his illegality should surprise anyone - if you elect a criminal to run your country, the criminal will commit crimes while running your country. We're just disgusted at how many people just shrug their shoulders at it all. #ResistTrump

WATCH: During a hearing, GOP Sen. Josh Hawley presented a chart claiming Trump was victimized by injunctions—only to be dismantled by legal scholar (and wife of Chris Hayes) Kate Shaw.

So they basically said this guy's life wasn't worth $645 -- all of which is well beyond the pennies his meds cost to produce.

Exactly.

“I think his legacy is not going to be an EV or putting rockets into space. I think it’s going to be unnecessary death, disease & disability. That's not what it means to be an innovator, that's not what it means to be an American, that's not what it means to be a man" ~Scott Galloway #ElonMusk

If you find yourself fighting with other Dems about Biden, keep in mind that Tapper and the corporate media are part of the oligarchy, and they want us fighting.

Republicans are lying about Medicaid work requirements. The truth is that a vast majority of recipients who can work are already working. Work requirements are just a shady way to fund tax cuts for the wealthy.

Russ gets it.

Reed: I’m not a great mathematician but I think you were talking about a trillion dollars. I believe 1.5 billion times ten is 15 billion. McMahon: I think the cut is 1.2 billion Reed: That would be 12 billion not a trillion McMahon: Okay

Mullin: What were we ranked nationally in math and reading in 1979? McMahon: We were very low on the totem pole. Mullin: We were number one in 1979
