Well I guess we just need to invade so we can find those sites. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/u...

Iran's inept attempt to attack a United States military base exposes the fact that they were never a threat to the United States.

The Democratic Party gave up on local elections in the 1990s, and still have not gotten back to it. Their sole focus on the Presidency above all else is part of the problem.

We need to drop the fiction that the GOP wants a democracy. The GOP is a Christian Nationalists party. Everything that Trump is doing is what they want.

In other words there is no evidence and no intelligence. This was an act of aggression that was done just because it could be done. This is a step toward the United States becoming a true empire.

@schumer.senate.gov so quiet. You are worthless. Resign now coward.

The illegal attack on Iran has brought us one step closer to civil war.

Fuck Harvard and their appeasement.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

ICE's increasingly aggressive tactics are unacceptable and dangerous. They do not make us any safer. I’m calling for an independent investigation right now — this abuse of power must end.

What's the difference between Gestapo and ICE? Gestapo showed their faces when they demanded to see your papers.

Stop with saying its illegal. Stop hoping for the courts. We are in a state of civil war. States need to accept that fact and start preparing.

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

The conspiracy theories from MAGA are crazier than usual today. June 14th hit them hard, and they just can't understand why their narrative is being rejected.

A Democratic Mayor arrested. A Democratic Congresswoman indicted. A Democratic Senator tackled and detained. A Democratic State Representative killed. A Democratic State Representative in critical condition. We can all see where this is going.

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"

I had my doubts and anxiety about today. There was a tragic loss of life in Minnesota. When the day was done this was one of the largest blows to Trumpism in the past 10 years.

AOC: "They have released chaos in LA by violently raiding & ripping apart peaceful public spaces, and now they are tackling & arresting US sitting members of Congress, while going on the record & lying about what happened.

He’s right

The real news that will be drowned out by the radical right is that the gunman was targeting protests.

My biggest fear today is not violence, but that people will not turn out. We will then know this nation has capitulated to authoritarianism.

The radical neutrality has already started! @warren.senate.gov put the blame where it belongs. This is a direct result of Trump's actions against our freedoms.

This is Trump's America. He ran on a platform of political violence and anarchy. This nation is in a state of civil war. wapo.st/3HI5SfS

it's good to make the fascist government do highly visible, overtly fascist things! some folks don't realize what's going on yet, and this helps them understand more quickly.

It is too late for the courts. It is too late for impeachment. One side has started a civil war while the other acts as if we are still a nation of laws.

This is a call for the military occupation of Los Angeles.

This is occupation of an American city by the US military with the removal of elected officials: “We are staying here to liberate this city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and this mayor have placed on this country,” said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem

If a US Senator is not safe from being handcuffed and detained for free speech, none of us are safe.

@nytimes.com another cowardly corporate propaganda article by the NYT where no comments are allowed. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/12/u...

At this point nothing should shock me, but this one did. I was also shocked and how their X account is nothing but propaganda.

@nytimes.com it is cowardly to post this corporate bull and not allow comments on the article. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/10/u...
