Is anyone allowed on TV this week who is against going to war with Iran? I get their arguments for it, but why are those the only arguments being presented? A very large percentage of the US population, even Trump voters, are against it. So why isn’t that viewpoint being heard?

Just so we're all clear: It's not a coincidence that the first senator they've used physical force against is Sen. Alex Padilla, a Latino man representing California.

What happened to Senator Padilla is absolutely DISGUSTING. Point blank, period. This shit is out of control. Another elected official disrespected while doing their job. (1/2)

Not “Putin’s war.” Not “the regime.” This is russia’s war. Every drop of blood is on russia. On the hands of those who followed orders, stayed silent, looked away, or cheered. Accomplices. All of them.

DONT TALK TO COPS. Their job is to close cases, not to find the truth. If they can pin it on you, they will. All you should say is: 1) Am I being detained? and 2) Am I free to go? nothing else. clam the fuck up.

Here, from @energyinnovation.org, is a detailed modeling breakdown of the extensive economic damage that the [cough] "Big Beautiful Bill" will do on every individual US state. (Remarkably, yes, it would hurt every single state.)

Yes. Folks, this is not a distraction. Any action that hurts millions of people can never be a distraction. Trump covers up crime with scandal. Deploying military forces on US soil to hurt innocent people isn’t a scandal. It’s a crime. Focus on the people getting hurt. That’s who matters most.

When Stanley Nelson investigated unsolved KKK killings, some of his best sources were the spouses and children of the Klansmen. The men who would torture and kill were often abusive to their family at home--and those spouses and kids talked. My expanded story for npr.org. www.npr.org/2025/06/07/n...

How is it possible we still didn't see any reporting on who these amateurish ICE agents are? I'm sure reporters have access to experts who can show beyond doubt these are not trained officers. I'm sure they have access to resources who can uncover the identity of these people.
