The Mayors of LA County are doing a great job in this presser. I wish it was covered nationally.

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

We are normalizing Trump taking control of the military and law enforcement as his private militia against any and all perceived enemies and critics. We have tanks rolling down the streets of DC for a military parade. But...Biden's age. We're almost cooked, folks. Wake up.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced Tuesday that she signed an executive order seeking greater transparency from federal immigration officials. She said the city will submit regular Freedom of Information Act requests to find out who ICE is detaining and on what grounds.

At some point we're going to have to stop asking "when is (insert name) going to step up and say he's gone to far" and realize that maybe they are ok with the president's actions. We must realize that no one is going to swoop in and "save" us, it has to be us... we the people. Good morning

Always an Onion article.

Navarro: I'm very happy to see somebody that isn't afraid to speak up and call an authoritarian an authoritarian. And if it's Newsom, as a result of what's happening in California now, I welcome it because I have been so thirsty for somebody that is not cowardly

The founding fathers did not live and die to see this moment. It’s time for all of us to stand up peacefully.

Newsom is doing what almost every Democrat in the country is afraid to do right now and he is going to reap all the rewards if they don’t hurry. As a California voter intimately familiar with Newsom’s actual policy bonafides, I am loudly imploring someone else to do that hurrying.

This is my friend's video from Santa Ana, CA in OC. The Santa Ana PD had this situation totally under control. It was peaceful. Then ICE came in to provoke & attack. ICE is a terrorist secret police Gestapo-style band of thugs, posers, mercenaries & miscreants Speak up Call Congress: 202-224-3121

Stephen Miller should stop sending the Marines into Los Angeles and cope with the dissolution of his marriage in a normal way, like drunk speeding on a winding mountain road.

Humiliated by China, Harvard, Elon Musk, and the federal courts, Trump has launched a war inside America on vulnerable people inside America. Like any bully, Trump is fundamentally a coward.

Free Speech enthusiasts countrywide embraced a bad faith movement to dismantle so-called political correctness, which basically amounts to maintaining space for people to feel safe at work, in favor of what amounts to a form of McCarthyism where if you're honest about fascists you can't work at all.

Sure wish the deep state would hurry the fuck up.

It’s so much worse this time. It might not be clear if you don’t live in LA, but the supposed “riots” are tiny. They’re nothing like George Floyd in 2020. Protests are happening in a few blocks downtown and as resistance to specific ICE raids. This is 100% pretense for fascist subjugation.

"The normalization of routine and open-ended deployment of the military at home requires that the public become accustomed to this departure from historic practice." Today Trump went further down the path of nomralizing the politicization of the military. Awful. www.thebulwark.com/p/its-always...

Okay so law enforcement IS capable of massing on elementary schools to snatch up children, just not when there’s an active shooter. Got it.

“This could poll well with midterm swing voters in Ohio” I remark sagely as I watch a fourth grader get bundled into an unmarked van at recess by armed and masked agents of the state.

He’s disappearing innocent people off of our streets and ordering the military onto our streets. He does not give a damn about the rule of law. He is the very tyrant our founding generation rose up against 249 yrs ago. It’s time for the American people to rise up again.

If your boss tells you to lie to teachers, hide your identity, and steal 1st graders from their schools you have a bad job and an evil boss and you should say no

Fight the Empire.

I’m not sure why Gavin Newsome doesn’t activate the rest of his army guard to prevent the president from it or force him to overrule it…. Then fight on the second amendment guaranteeing a state a right to a militia. How can a state have a militia if the president can simply federalize it

Our Founding Fathers would have had a word for calling up a battalion of Marines for regular domestic law enforcement: tyranny.

I remember when right wingers were convinced Obama was invading Texas because there was an army training exercise planned. They seen quiet now.

UPDATE: David Huerta was just released from custody!

If I was a democratic comms person, I would get on TV and say simply: people are in the streets because the Trump administration lied. They said they were going to deport violent criminals to make America safer, but instead they're deporting ordinary working families, making America less safe.

This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊

#TAMPA folks I have free #Revolution2025 signs i will be handing out today at 3:00pm

BREAKING The City of Glendale, California — one of the most populous cities in Southern California — says it has terminated its contract with U.S. Homeland Security and ICE.

*taps the sign*

They are creating violence where there is none because they require violence to justify tightening their grip.

yes, well. we are americans and we consider infighting possibly the most important praxis of all

📌NOTE: Sending the Marines into ANY U.S. city would be the greatest, anti-American insult TO THE MARINES I have seen in my entire lifetime. 📌This is weak, disgusting and NOT THEIR MISSION. Be about time for retired Marines to start speaking up, because you KNOW you are better than this. -Navy guy
