White House: "Violent mobs have attacked ICE officers and Federal Law Enforcement Officers." LAPD: "Today, demonstrations across the City of Los Angeles remained peaceful."

Hey all – Does anyone remember a littl' event at the US Capitol on January 6th 2021?... When Donald Trump *refused* to deploy the national guard during a full-on insurrection?!

I just think being kind is about the most attractive thing any person can do. Like, just recognize the humanity of the humans around you . . . be kind to the people around you, regardless of what kind of person they are. It's not difficult. Maybe I'm just oversimplifying.

🚨 ALERTA PHILLY 🚨 Hearing from a very credible local source that there may be ICE action tomorrow (Sunday 6/8) in the following areas: 5th and Washington Ave 7th and Snyder Ave 5th and McKean/Wolf Chinatown Let your neighbors know to stay safe and be vigilant. Be ready. Be water.

Trump is deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles without the governor’s request or consent. Governor Newsom has publicly condemned the move, calling it “purposefully inflammatory.”

How am I supposed to do my work while the country is unraveling?

There are two pathways to what Trump is doing: 1) He is federalizing 2000 National Guard troops; or 2) He is deploying 2000 members of another state’s National Guard with the permission of *that* state’s governor. These posts walk through the relevant authorities—and the questions they raise:

Hey everyone, you want to know a fun factoid? Almost all of the federal agents currently in LA aren’t local, which means they’re staying at a hotel somewhere. Hotels have fire alarms. Wanna know another fun fact? If protests start popping off in other states, they can’t be everywhere at once.

I’m conflicted about Duster on Max bc I really like Josh Holloway but I HATE everything about the 1970’s. 🙄

boundless admiration for the people out in the streets in LA right now. just incredible. if you've made a single ICE agent even a little bit more afraid, it's done a universe of good

The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets. These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.

Did anyone else catch that Duster episode 2 on Max contained both an actress playing a young Adrienne Barbeau, and the actual actress Adrienne Barbeau playing a different role? I guess you have to be old as Methuselah to catch it, but I thought that was cool.

Imagine that. www.npr.org/2025/06/02/n...

This.

One of the left’s mistakes was not immediately re-defining the word “libtard” to mean Libertarian instead of Liberal.

Me just having fun on BlueSky

It’s time for a massive Class Action Lawsuit against the Supreme Court for our personal information

Come the fuck on. We had a whole week of body-debilitating rain, followed by a week with no rain, and now we’re going to have another whole week of rain? My RA-addled body cannot handle this. I have shit to do.

They don’t show up like this for school shootings. People ask how the public knows ICE is there? This is how. Nothing covert about it. They do it this way to make sure the entire world knows they’re coming. A full display of terror on our streets. To instill fear in America.
