And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

Using military style force against protesters in LA on Americans who are peacefully protesting is not American. What ICE did in LA should alarm every American. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/06/u...

We never had to worry about the U.S. military being used against our own country when Biden was president. But that’s exactly what’s happened under both Trump administrations.

Washington just took the reasonable step of not allowing the National Guard of other states to operate here without our agreement. It’s not the Guard personnel we are concerned about, it’s other governors in the Trump cult. katu.com/news/local/g...

Snatched in plain sight. Congress, where are you on this? Plainclothes. No identification. Unmarked cars with everyday plates. Anyone can throw on regular clothes, flash a fake badge, and claim to be “ICE.” A reckless operation and dangerous. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

In Term 1, Trump was itching to turn the military against the American people. Thankfully there were people like Esper, Milley, and Mattis. Now, we’ve got Homan, Miller, Noem, and Hegseth. Guardrails down.

Aggrieved whites pretending they only lost out because of "unfair advantages" to minorities is an old script. The Bakke ruling against racial quotas came after Allan Bakke was rejected by 12 different med schools. He sued the one that had a racial quota, arguing that and that alone kept him out.

For those of us who’ve spend the last 6 months discussing how the Trump would use deportations to create chaos is the Blue states and then use that chaos as an excuse to declare a national emergency and seize total power, things are right on schedule.

Under Trump’s #BigUglyBill, breastfeeding mothers receiving WIC assistance would see their monthly benefits go from $54 to just $13. They’ll force you to birth a baby, but will deny you the ability to feed it. Ok. MAHA my azz.

Two babies have died from whooping cough in Kentucky. Neither they nor their parents had been vaccinated. The current whooping cough outbreak in the U.S. hasn’t grabbed the media spotlight as much as measles has, but it’s important to update your vaccination if you’re going to be around babies.

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president. And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be the story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

Imagine if President Biden, from the White House, had publicly threatened to level “very serious consequences” against the richest man alive if he dared to give any money to the Republican Party. It would be a scandal that would last years. That is what Trump just did with respect to Elon Musk.

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade. They departed Texas 5 days ago. What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel. (🎥 DW)

ICE agents or bounty hunters? A raid at Home Depot on Wilshire in Los Angeles earlier today. What’s disturbing is that they’re wearing masks and vests you could buy on Amazon. They’re in unmarked cars, and I don’t see any IDs on the officers — regular SUVs with standard plates.
