Greetings! I’m at the DoubleTree Hotel in Whittier, CA (in Los Angeles county). Protesters against federal detention raids say that officials have been staying here though I have not independently confirmed. Hundreds outside, chanting “kick them out.” It is EXTREMELY loud.

Spokane, Washington tonight became the center of national attention after a peaceful protest outside an ICE facility was escalated by police.

Here's a great playlist for Saturday and beyond. I don't know about you but I must have my music vibes and there's some terrific ones on this one by @johnpavlovitz.bsky.social substack.com/@johnpavlovi...

#GVerse #PayAttention - Senator Warnock @warnock.senate.gov just crushed #Shitface47’s BS in Los Angeles in a way I didn’t think was possible. Well done.

Black people keep your head on a swivel and stay woke! If you are mistaken for an immigrant from one of the banned countries, you will get snatched. @bookersquared.bsky.social

What does this remind you of? An out of control Philadelphia cop kneeling on a protestors neck, while other police surrounded him with bikes to prevent people videoing the crime! The Felon has given the police complete permission to be abusive!

Not sure why I’m posting this. Perhaps it’s relevant 🤔

A friend at Disneyland is reporting ICE agents in the employee parking lot stopping cast members as they leave.

Former ABC News correspondent and anchor Terry Moran has joined Substack. He says he can’t wait to “get at the important work that we all have to do at a time of such trouble in our country.” bit.ly/3HAX77o

Who remembers fun with flags? 🤔 Today in my travels I noticed a few places that previously had those disgusting flags with images of lord lardasses alleged attempt on them have been removed 🤨attacking your own citizens may be a bridge too far? I'm rural so a few is something here.

I’m hearing rumors that thousands of people are calling the ICE tip line to report little green men and other aliens from outer space. That’s not why ICE set up this number, so you should absolutely NOT call that tip line to report those types of aliens. 👽 I repeat—do NOT call the below number! ☎️

Ignore the bot accounts so much propaganda is being spread. Watch for the signs: no photos, no friends, account created last week. They’re everywhere, and we’re clearing out thousands every day.

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

If you haven’t heard of Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove… you have now. When she stepped out from the back without missing a beat, I knew it was on🔥 @kamlager-dove.house.gov

Jimmy Kimmel has more courage than the entire ABC News C-Suite full of executives put together... times one hundred! Kimmel correctly described the sending of troops to Los Angeles as a "disgusting and unnecessary abuse of power instigated by our mentally ill president"

What is the point of manhandling pregnant women and other vulnerable non-resisting individuals? EVEN if you supported large-scale deportation, the MANNER of these arrests is so deeply wrong and unnecessary.

Of course corporate media paints the wrong picture. They’re part of the oligarchy. Don’t watch protests on the news. Go to one. Flood socials with images of the peace and community. Corporate media isn’t going to. We have to. We are the new media. I’ll see you at No Kings 6/14.

I agree with him 100%. When WE the PEOPLE take our country back, I most definitely believe that the benefits package they receive needs to be re-evaluated! For Starters!!! bsky.app/profile/aqua...

Such a touching moment: Rep. Jim Clyburn held Rep. Brittany Pettersen’s baby during a press conference on gun violence prevention. A memory to cherish, ‘I can’t wait to tell him one day that Rep. Clyburn was holding him.’ 🥹🧿💙🍼🙌🏽 #LeadershipWithHeart #JimClyburn #BrittanyPettersen #EndGunViolence

Leave it to a religion to crack down on dog walking and produce a nonsensical statement like, "Prayer is invalid with the presence of dog hair." Prayer is invalid, period. And dog walking is good exercise. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/w...
