The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

He stood in front of our troops today and gave a mean spirited, partisan speech. He stood in front of our troops today and attacked Americans by name. He stood in front of our troops today and goaded them into booing their fellow Americans. Never become desensitized to this.

AOC: If Senator Fetterman or anybody else is concerned with law and order, we should be looking at one of the most law breaking agencies and administrations that we've seen in the United States.

Disgraceful for any news organization to bend the knee to these bad faith actors. Shameful.

Donald Trump deployed more than 700 active U.S. Marines — men and women trained in foreign combat, not domestic law enforcement. We honor their service and bravery. But we do not want our streets militarized by our own Armed Forces. Not in L.A. Not in California. Not anywhere.

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

As Trump plans mass deployments of ICE in Chicago, a car just sped through a group of protesters. I was at the Federal Plaza protest. It was PEACEFUL. This violence and chaos are what Trump, his masked thugs, and the people who support mass deportations stand for.

Instead of using this money to fund, say, the National Weather Service right before hurricane season, they're using it to send Marines to Los Angeles. THIS is waste and abuse.

I say this with love: I understand that a lot of people didn't expect the fascists to militarily occupy an opposition stronghold. And yet, it is what people SHOULD have expected. It is what Trump tried to do in 2020, when institutionalists held him back. Those institutionalists are gone.

By the way once you accept that Trumpian military occupation of an opposition stronghold was a "when" not "if" proposition, something else becomes clear: ANOTHER major fuckup on the part of the Trump admin here is managing to do this on a week where major protests are already scheduled nationwide.

A reminder that Lankford was one of the key negotiators of the bipartisan immigration measure that looked like it would go a long way toward solving the border issues. Trump pressed Republicans to blow up that bill because he wanted to run on the issue of immigration. And now here we are.

This last weekend was the concert weekend for the small vocal ensemble I joined this year. At the wrap-up party afterwards, our conductor told us that several audience members had thanked her for (paraphrasing) giving them, at this moment, some time to just...listen to music, and refresh themselves.

Many white Americans have never lived in a country where you can be jailed or killed for angering the government. Of course we have to fight tyranny and oppression. But from Canada, it looks like you're in occupied territory. Resistance is covert in wartime.

This is my friend's video from Santa Ana, CA in OC. The Santa Ana PD had this situation totally under control. It was peaceful. Then ICE came in to provoke & attack. ICE is a terrorist secret police Gestapo-style band of thugs, posers, mercenaries & miscreants Speak up Call Congress: 202-224-3121

House and Senate leaders should demand resignations from both Major General Pat Work, the 82nd Airborne Division commander, and Colonel Chad Mixon, the Fort Bragg garrison commander. This was possibly the most partisan speech ever delivered by a commander-in-chief to U.S. troops.
