US Veterans peacefully protesting Trump’s military birthday parade arrested at Capitol Hill. This is the moment a 80+ year old US veteran is taken away in handcuffs for practicing his 1st Amendment right. #3E #NoKings #NoKingsProtests (🎥 @gregjstoker.bsky.social )

Nazi shit. Visceral, actually existing Nazi shit. Gestapo. Secret police. Randomly inflicted terror against targeted groups in centers of opposition against an illegitimate, minority regime of masked men in brown and green uniforms. Actual, real life, nazi shit and it's home grown All American.

This is one of the best - and most terrifying - images from my bird feeder. 😬

BREAKING: US Marines deployed to Los Angeles have carried out the first known detention of a civilian, the US military confirms. It was confirmed to Reuters after they shared this image with the US military.

They sold MAGA merchandise on Fort Bragg before Trump's speech. The Army complained. They were overruled.

🚨The kids in larchmont are doing rage songs🚨

Las Vegas police immediately arrest two livestreamers when one of them insults an officer after an anti-ICE protest ("honor your oath, bitch"). "You need to learn there's rules: don't run your mouth at me."

1. Trans troops are now being separated from their jobs, and we have learned what discharge code they are being given: "JDK," a code that was used to remove communists and gay people, and can be seen as a "black mark" on their service. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

NEW: The govt says it will NOT release Mahmoud Khalil, since Judge Farbiarz has not explicitly ordered him released and since it has other (very minor) grounds for holding him. The govt asks that the judge stay any future order for release pending appeal. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The “have your cake and eat it too” brigade “I didn’t want to serve during any of the wars for the past twenty years, but I do want to say I served in the military, but I don’t want to actually sign up and interfere with my career, and I want to be an O-5, voila” www.wsj.com/tech/army-re...

Execs from the company that helped foment a genocide are now taking their expertise to the US Army.

Border Patrol is continuing raids on farm workers in Ventura County, especially Moorpark and Oxnard. Agents are circling like sharks. Farm workers in areas with heightened activity should check in on each other and take steps to stay safe. Report what you see to us.

A woman is hospitalized and receives staples in her head after LAPD trampled her with their horses. LAPD also impeded her receiving medical attention.

This guy is just posted up outside of Congress and I’m honestly not sure what his political views are but I agree

“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.” @cbsaustin @velez_tx

Just share it. Why not?

The head of the department of homeland security announced that she planned to use military force to take over a democratically elected government in the state of California and we are arguing about whether a California Senator properly identified himself at the door.

WATCH: “I WAS AN INTERPRETER IN AFGHANISTAN FOR 3 YEARS.” ICE grabs a man whose name they don’t even know at his immigration hearing, shackles him, expedites his removal. Q: Why would anyone ever help our military again? — Trump is endangering and weakening our military.

Yes yes yes. There it is.

A man with a green card said ICE agents arrested him in #Lynn, Mass then took him to a detention facility—but first made a detour to a cemetery, where they took him out of their vehicle and beat him. #mapoli #Massachusetts

Reports of an uprising inside Delaney Hall immigration detention center in Newark NJ. I was here with people trying to visit family when we all started choking due to tear gas used inside.

Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city." Sen. Alex Padilla is then forcibly removed!

SCHATZ: "This is the stuff of dictatorships. He identified himself. That should be enough."

holy shit they threw him on the ground and cuffed Padilla when he was out of the room.

Even worse, you must give money to Elon Musk as a condition of any corporate merger. This shit is terrifying. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/12/b...

Illinois follows the law — we expect the federal government to follow the law, too. We won't participate in abuses of power. We won't violate court orders. We won't ignore the Constitution. We won't defy the Supreme Court. We won't take away people’s right to peacefully protest.

Two Palestinians showed us first-person videos of what it's like to try and retrieve, and provide, food in Gaza City. By Ang Li, Meg Felling, and me. Heaps of geolocation help too from @fdov21.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/video/world/...

More info coming soon..

NEW: Kilmar Abrego Garcia's attorneys ask Judge Xinis to impose sanctions on the govt for evading discovery. They ask that she compel production of certain info/docs (or appoint a special master to investigate) and impose fines for civil contempt. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

holy shit -- GOP Rep. Mike Turner tries to "help out" Hegseth by getting him to confirm that the Pentagon does not in fact have plans to take Greenland by force, but Hegseth instead more or less testifies that yep, they have devised plans for that

What happened here is an example of the Trump administration “de-documenting” people. His workers all had work permits; it seems they were Nicaraguans who entered through CHNV parole. But the Trump admin stripped them of their status then rounded them up, making even his supporter mad.

NEW: third poll (AP) now out in as many days showing Trump under water on every issue including immigration (53% disapprove). Trump’s overall approval rating now down to 39% Bonus: 60% think Trump’s dumb tank parade destroying the streets of DC is waste and abuse. apnorc.org/projects/mos...
