Disgusting

The honor of a lifetime. Happy Father’s Day, California.

This week so far: 1. US failure to prevent a war between a nuclear country and an almost nuclear one. 2. High-profile political assassinations. 3. Domestic military deployment, defying court orders. 4. Kim Jong Un-styled parade. 5. Senator violently attacked by Feds ... Thank God eggs are $3.79 now.

My face when I realize my army has the weakest parade march in all of NATO during my pyramid scheme sponsored propaganda event.

BRENNAN: The public approval is so high of deportation PADILLA: It depends how you ask the question. If you ask the same people, 'Do you think we should maintain due process in the US?' the answer is overwhelmingly yes

Reminder: Republicans are facilitating a massive transfer of wealth to the richest Americans while making cuts that would rip away healthcare and food from millions of people. It's Robin Hood in reverse.

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

California Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla said today a National Guard member and an FBI agent escorted him into Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's briefing last week before he was forcibly removed.

Schrödinger's parade - the crowd was both sparse and dense.

Trump Made His Supporters Endure Misery To Attend His Military Parade - HuffPost apple.news/Ahkzqj3KPSI2...

We, the people, have spoken!

Padilla on Noem: "How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles? She came through the Senate for confirmation."

Schiff: "In the first administration, there were at least a few people in the cabinet of some independence who could say, 'No, Mr. President, that's a lawless idea, that's a stupid idea.' But there's no one in this current admin to tell POTUS 'that's a stupid idea'... there's nothing but sycophants"

Unacceptable @indivisiblelasvegas.org Someone needs to file a lawsuit against the LVPD for Assault and Battery and brutality, including excessive force, false arrest, and verbal abuse, violating civil rights and departmental policies. #shelleyberkley

He threw his own birthday party, spent millions and millions of the American people’s money, and they still didn’t come.

Ukrainian Defense Intelligence agents cut off power to Russian military-industrial complex& Russian Armed Forces facilities in Russian Kaliningrad,sources report On June 14 in the city of Koenigsberg (Russian: "Kaliningrad"),Ukrainian agents attacked an industrial electrical substation

Rolling Stone’s headline was: “Trump’s military birthday was a gross failure.” I think that’s right, but the flip side is that the Army’s military parade was an absolute success. In other words, Trump did not hijack the event. For the Army, this was mission accomplished. wapo.st/3FXxltu

I had this on my desk at work for years as a reminder to myself when dealing with my staff. I found it while unpacking and decided to share it with all of you.

Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman. She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

This a perfect representation of how our corrupt administration views us.

More than 1 million in Boston! www.wcvb.com/article/more...

Millions of protesters across the U.S. took to the streets in demonstrations against the Trump administration today, in stark counter-programming to the president's Washington, D.C., military parade planned to start this evening.

Minnesota shooter Vance Boelter preached against abortion: “Many churches in America, didn’t listen to Jesus. …The devil comes through and rips everything apart. The churches are so messed up they don’t know abortion is wrong, in many churches.”

Something just hit me. Trump’s tactics might have just awakened a sleeping giant. All day, I’ve been seeing clips of children of immigrants newly activated: speaking up and pushing back harder than their parents ever could. Future voters.

“Overall this was a pretty listless and low-energy parade and crowd.” Amid Rain and Protests, Trump’s Parade Puts on Show of Military Might www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

Meanwhile, here are the crowds bsky.app/profile/ther...

Boston showed up for No Kings Day!

Kristi Noem, Dr. Phil, and ICE went to this woman’s home in Huntington Park, CA at 6am to make a spectacle and you want me to be satisfied with @governor.ca.gov flowery words? Watch. It’s disgusting. Noem belongs in prison.

Oh 😑

Trump's "perade" is the only event today where crowds are smaller than expected.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.
