Faith leaders and a crowd are gathered at the Federal Building right now. Video taken by a 50501 organizer on the ground. @50501movement.bsky.social

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

Newsom: "Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived. He's taking a wrecking ball to our Founding Father's historic project."

If you haven’t been paying attention to Texas: San Antonio just elected its first openly gay mayor, Gina Ortiz Jones, who will become the first Asian-American female mayor of a major city in Texas. In McKinney TX, voters chose Bill Cox for mayor defeating a candidate backed by Governor Abbott. LFG 🔥

Bill Cassidy is a fool

This is almost grown-in-a-lab bespoke levels of how to cause a major diplomatic crisis with several allies bsky.app/profile/john...

On June 14th, we show up. Coalition members will be present at all 1,800 events nationwide, over 90,000 strong, helping monitor local conditions. Many veterans have stepped forward to support protesters, stand in solidarity, and defend our right to be heard. We thank them.

I like this Gavin more than podcast Gavin.

How did Trump's deportation plan go from targeting "the worst of the worst" to a crackdown at Home Depot?

Philly local tv station reporting that a man allegedly posed as an ICE agent in order to rob a car repair business office. How many other criminals might be getting this idea right now, given that actual ICE agents are refusing to show IDs, warrants, badges?

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

BREAKING: LA solidarity protesters in Austin are occupying JJ Pickle Federal Building, which houses local ICE processing center

CNN’s reporter on scene in Los Angeles: I’m being detained..

Bass: If you want to go back in time, where was LA on Thursday? Fine, peaceful. Nothing was happening. The minute ICE rolled into town, that's when the chaos started and then add to that—bringing in federal troops.

More patriot air defense systems finally in Ukraine but don’t ask from where

Profiles in Courage

Sen. Van Hollen: "Bringing [Kilmar Abrego Garcia] back to the U.S. and having his case processed in a court of law is a victory for our Constitution and due process...This case is not about this particular individual, it's about his constitutional rights."

None of my trolls showed up in replies of this. They've taken a break from cheering Ukraine being destroyed to being outraged that LA might be.

We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

Newsom: Just moments ago, they called up an additional 2,000 National Guard troops. So now it’s 4,000 total—of which only 300 have actually been operationalized. And guess what? Yesterday, LAPD had to use their already scarce resources to protect those National Guardsmen and women…

Newsom: "Arrest me. Let's just get it over with, tough guy. I don't give a damn ... Tom, arrest me. Let's go."

"I voted for lawless, anonymous, masked, and unchecked police" is one hell of a jump from "eggs cost too much."

LA PROTESTERS: How to annoy ICE, cops, Guardsmen & Marines “patrolling” the streets? Blast “IN THE NAVY”, follow & dance party around them with BIG Pride flags, glitter bomb them & shout “Happy Pride Month”. Believe me, the ridicule they’ll get will make them LOATHE being in LA. #NotJoking

More of this, please. Glendale, CA just canceled its agreement with ICE to house undocumented immigrants taken into custody after pressure from activists who said it violated sanctuary laws.

Bonta: We brought a lawsuit today on behalf of the governor and the State of California, challenging as unlawful the president’s federalization of the National Guard.. The authority he relies on does not permit him to unilaterally call in the National Guard.

oof

The professional agitators are ICE.

This is the spirit of Los Angeles. This is California. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. #FreeDavidEndRaids

Ok gang looks like we arrested a bunch of people who haven't committed any crimes so our next order of business is to invent some crimes to charge them with

Are there any interviews of the actual protesters in LA? Can barely find anything other than riot porn and officials

@timmiller.bsky.social: "You have to notice that the ICE raids are not happening at Donald Trump's golf courses or in deep red parts of the country. These raids are happening in a lot of blue cities...That shows just how much they want this fight in the White House."

Let this sink in. Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence. During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

"Peace through strength" in a domestic setting is a means of authoritarianism. The Trump administration is manufacturing a crisis in order to give him more power. It's un-American.

It is genuinely unsafe for average people to use Twitter and speak freely. It appears to be this administration's primary intelligence gathering operation.

good morning friends 💚✨

Still waiting for the article that’s like “these right wing militia members are in a bubble and it would be healthier if they exposed themselves to left wing ideas”

More friendly advice from your mortal enemies.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

What happened to states’ rights, Kristi?

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

Good morning rebels...
