Please watch this….

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Warning: ICE is planning 30 days of immigration raids across Los Angeles County. If you or someone you know may be impacted, now is the time to set up a support system, identify a safe place, and stay alert.

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

We need to stand up for @terrymoranabc.bsky.social

When the LA police says you are overreaching, you are overreaching.

Tanks being moved into DC. National guard being mobilized in LA. Paramilitary thugs being unleashed across America. It's summer in America and fascism is in full bloom.

This.

1/ If accurate, this is almost certainly a conflict with the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement, including the National Guard if they are federalized.

The administration gets closer to using the military to crush civilian dissent. Expect deaths, disappearances, and lawless detentions.

Every reference to these guys should note that several remain adjudged terrorists. Even Trump didn’t disrupt that ruling from a Trump appointed judge.

I feel like we aren’t making a big enough deal about how insane this is

"Most everybody knew Elon was exaggerating what he could do," said Rep. Moore of Utah. If everyone on Capitol Hill was aware that Elon was exaggerating, why didn’t GOP members speak up? We do not need leaders who are afraid to speak honestly in front of the camera. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

Not normal

"Just because Trump senses that keeping mum on a national ban is best at the moment doesn’t mean he isn't letting people like RFK Jr and Josh Hawley work together on schemes to radically restrict access to abortion." — @snipy.bsky.social

AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they

How much of a coward do you have to be - how uninformed and afraid do you have to be - to do this?

New in PN: The real cover-up is of Trump's disordered mental state "Despite the endless handwringing about Biden Old, a sitting president acting like a cross between a 4Chan thread and Q truly is a major concern — one the mainstream media actively minimizes."

That would be awful. Don’t share this.

🤔

The cost to repair D.C. streets after Trump's upcoming military parade could cost as much as $16 million, according to U.S. military officials.

So. Steel production is relatively small slice of the American economy. Steel itself? *Very widely used throughout the American economy. See the problem? (I mean, see the problem beyond the entire global economy being held hostage to the whims of one guy who doesn’t understand the economy?)

Medicaid cuts don't matter because "we are all going to die" does not seem like a winning political message www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Maybe we need US Senators who aren’t actually rooting for you to die.

I’ll say this as many times as I have to. No tax cut in the history of tax cuts has ever paid for itself. Not a one.

Treating a new Covid strain like a crime and not a public health issue is deranged.

Targeting a private educational institute because it won’t conform its governance and curriculum to what the state wants is…communist.

I implore people to think about what Memorial Day means, and then think about…this

Classy as expected. You know what? He can wallow in his victimhood and misery. How about the rest of us go just enjoy the day and honor our fallen.

‘They say, We leave you our deaths. Give them their meaning.’ —Archibald MacLeish Remembering the fallen this Memorial Day, we can consider our own duty to strive so that our lives and our country are worthy of the price they paid.

Floating the idea of a 3rd term is just Trump's way of winding up what MAGA folks like to call "the libtards." The real damage is what he can do in the next 3.6 years when he never has to face the electorate again. Don't expect the Repubs to stop him.

Hard to believe they’re talking about the same event.

This should be seen as evidence of the crisis: federal judges fear that Trump will order U.S. Marshals to stand down on securing the safety of judges whose decision they don’t like. This is just devastating. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Wow. This is major news. Judges discuss moving the U.S. marshals from the executive to the judicial branch. Not only would they protect judges from trump threats, but it would also make it easier for courts to order marshals to carry out court orders.

Trump cut staffing at the VA, and now Dallas vets are waiting months for care. Surgeries are being delayed. Vets are being left without mental health care. I’ve called for an investigation—because if you claim to support veterans, act like it.

So we’ve got $90 million to throw the parade he wanted, but we don’t have the money to fix North Carolina. Got it!

They’re afraid
