STOP NAZI VANILLA ISIS

Great catch by photographer Andrew Caballero-Reynolds for AFP.

ICE attacked the wrong person—SEIU California President David Huerta—while he peacefully observed. Now 750,000 furious SEIU members are rising in outrage. “Wrong side. Wrong state. Wrong union.” This isn’t just overreach—it’s a full-blown assault on labor and civil rights.

This cannot be emphasized enough: democracy wins through peaceful nonviolent means. Sign up, show up. Stay peaceful, do not engage with agitators, retreat as needed.

One of these photos is how HBO's The Watchmen depicted a fascist police force back in 2018 The others are real photos of the ICE agents who are rounding people up and disappearing them in Boston, Denver, L.A., and elsewhere

This is a consistent theme since yesterday from people on the ground in Paramount. Yes, there are crowds, there are protesters. But they are PEACEFUL. ICE began firing tear gas, flash bangs and smoke bombs once they saw people who happened to be there start filming.

One apparent reason why GOP legislators are getting cold feet about proof of citizenship laws for voter registration: They’re worried about disenfranchising their own voters, advocates say. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The only way to ban a citizen from wearing a mask in a public place is for The Fuhrer to declare martial law.

Fuck, and I cannot stress this enough, this guy, and fuck ICE. They aren't worried about treating immigrants like real people with real families. Well, turnabout is fair play.

Why does he keep bringing up J6? Oh, he’s talking about the protests in LA. My bad.

Trump’s escalation by calling for the National Guard demands non-violent defiance. This could not be more democratic and American. www.americaamerica.news/p/trump-want...

Inflaming and provoking violence and division and threatening to deploy military resources against your own people is not a show of strength — it’s abuse of power and a sign of leadership without a moral compass or regard for the law. We are a democracy. We stand strong. You cannot intimidate us.

Remember, long before colonists arrived, North America was already occupied by a rich and beautiful Indigenous culture of incredible people. These beautiful people belong here in America!!

Morning All Trump does is lie (imho) another distraction He would love Martial Law He wants to distract from our tanked economy, his horrific big bad bill, and his " bromance " with Musky calling him a PEDO YES, Ron, the Fuhrer wants Martial Law

Cruz added: "I feel like the kids of a bitter divorce where you’re just saying, ‘I really wish mommy and daddy would stop screaming.'” For real? Nuff said. Cruz is a stone around our necks. Next time, my fellow Texan’s, vote this POS out. LFG! #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

MARKWAYNE MULLIN: You can't find where we are reducing coverage for anybody BASH: If this passes the way it does, I would be interested to talk to you about what happens to the rural hospitals in your state MULLIN: It will pass

I’m sick of this regime using antisemitism to justify racist policies. This travel ban is about keeping Black and brown people out which is rooted in racism. It won’t protect Jews—it fuels resentment and puts us in more danger, leading to more violence like what happened in Boulder.

If you leave Pee Wee German for Apartheid Clyde, than you must be a Twatzi

5 June 1933 | Dutch Jewish girl, Hilde Münz, was born in Heerlen. She was deported to #Auschwitz from Westerbork in August 1942. She was murdered in a gas chamber after arrival selection.

Not amazing. Disgusting as the fuckers are proving that they are cowardly assholes only concerned about their welfare and not their constituents or America.

This!

Good Thursday morning daily jokesters! When I was a kid, I had a rock collection that I loved beyond belief! I loved those rocks so much that even today, when I see a cool rock I get all sedimental…

Elon's legacy ranges from gutting cancer research to setting in motion millions of deaths from starvation or disease. I'll be pushing for Congress to hold Elon & DOGE accountable—for every act of corruption, every disastrous consequence, and every law they have broken.

I don’t want to live in a world where people are in jail and barred from work for smoking weed but an unelected man actively abusing ketamine faces no repercussions for illegally seizing all of our data and making decisions that kill hundreds of thousands of people

@wilwheaton.net you are a terrific narrator

May her memory be a blessing. #LorettaSwit

I watched MASH as a kid and continue watching now. The show has always been relevant. Thank you Major Houlihan.

Exactly. The 130-day limit just happened to be the one law Elon Musk decided to comply with? Nonsense. The ketamine-infused crackpot had his ass handed to him by the courts and by public opinion and—most deliciously—by his own jackassery. LMAO and good riddance.

This is one where Trump can't go crying to SCOTUS. This is huge! www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

Give me a break, Musk is not leaving because his scheduled time is up The litigation held him accountable, & for that & other reasons he became politically unpopular & a liability He lost. Democracy won. Only one round of the fight but a biggie!
