Evergreen post for this era

Reporter: There’s a pretty good chance Trump might be watching Newsom: I hope so, he might learn something— rescind this order— it’s illegal. You’re creating the conditions you claim you’re solving and you’re not

When President Johnson activated the Nat'l Guard in Alabama in 1965 over Gov. Wallace's objection he did it to protect protesters advocating for voting rights for Black people who had previously met violence at the hands of state troopers. Very different situation.

Polite request to please credit the photographers whose L.A. photos you’re sharing. They’re out there risking getting their shins exploded by police munitions to get those shots.

seriously, what what a piece of shit thing to do. imagine this idea forming in your brain & just following through. no impulse control. juvenile brain function. years of training telling you all your peers are totally down w/ what you're about to do. what a bad organization this guy's a part of.

Newsome needs to stand up to Donnie the bully!! Take back control the national guard!!

Newsom asserting that the California National Guard deployment is "unlawful" is key. Doing so implies that he still legally retains command. Therefore, Newsom should order Adjutant General Matthew Beevers to demobilize the activated unit. If Beevers declines, Newsom should relieve him of command.

"Mass deportation" is the excuse and trigger for authoritarianism. As it was always intended to be.

Well well…. Thiel and Epstein….👀

Coming to a non violent protest near you

Like everything else you watch these days, 2025 is just another remake.

Message of strength ~ Meet Yvonne Engelman, born in 1927, she lost her whole family in Auschwitz at age 14. She died earlier this year. Her memory is indeed a blessing. “Don’t give in…Don’t (let) anybody ever take your spirit away.” Embrace Yvonne’s spirit.

This protest is growing in #Pasadena California protesting ICE staying at the AC Hotel on Colorado Boulevard #NoICE

🚨SPECIAL ELECTION - OKLAHOMA STATE HOUSE DISTRICT 74🚨 Democrat: Amy Hossain Election Date: 🗓️THIS TUESDAY, JUNE 10TH🗓️ Area: Northeast of Tulsa (Owasso) Note: A blood red R+42 district, but that shouldn't stop Democrats from making their voices heard.

A shape-shifting sociopath (Vance)....... .....vouches for immutable psychopath (Stephen Miller). Let’s unpack..... 1/

So Miller incited these protests by ordering officials he’d no authority over to ditch the administration’s stated policy of only seeking undocumented persons with criminal records and instead demanding they raid—yes, he specifically ordered this—Home Depots to get the max number of nonviolent folks

🚨SPECIAL ELECTION - FLORIDA STATE HOUSE DISTRICT 3🚨 Democrat: Dondre Markell Wise Election Date: 🗓️THIS TUESDAY, JUNE 10TH🗓️ Area: North/East of Pensacola Note: Blood red, R+57 (!) district, but we show up and fight for Democrats everywhere, right?

We found out that ICE is staying at the AC hotel in #Pasadena and now there's a couple of hundred people protesting #NoICE

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.

This is both wrong & irrelevant. BlueSky is where we organize & educate each other 👊We've organized for calls & emails to electeds 👊we've organized & shut down efforts for MAGA national reporting hotlines 👊we've organized against Tesla, target & more 👊We've organized to protect immigrants

🚨SPECIAL ELECTION - OKLAHOMA STATE HOUSE DISTRICT 71🚨 Democrat: Amanda Clinton Election Date: 🗓️THIS TUESDAY, JUNE 10TH🗓️ Area: Sourthern portion of Tulsa (see map below) Note: This is only a Dem+9 district, so this is a seat that we want to prevent Republicans from flipping.

By accepting a pardon from the President they admitted they were guilty of a crime. Thats how a pardon works. Meanwhile the taxpayers are on the hook for all the damages their treasonous riot caused. We should sue them for damages. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory apple.news/AQ_s7bi2HS6e...

They’re brutalizing & arresting American citizens.

Well well well….

So I heard Republicans are confused and waiting for Jerry Springer to tell them who their daddy is before any legislation can move! Is Elon their daddy or Trump?

Watch me scramble in real time as I try to find the economic angle on the Musk-Trump tiff. (I think I found one, and the issues it highlights are terrifyingly important.)

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!!!

Some simple budget math: Give out $4 trillion in tax cuts and cut spending by $1 trillion, and you'll get a $3 trillion increase in the national debt. Denying these realities doesn't change them (and yes, the bond market has noticed).

What!!!!

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, did you see this? More evidence of cognitive deterioration. If you know anyone who's done a lot of research on this topic, pass it along.

Wow, what an entirely predictable turn of events.
