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.

ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted Women and children in parks

A cop doing the right thing? I think that i might need my fainting chair!

The "I'll lower costs and get us out of endless wars" candidate is now presiding over surging costs and brand new wars.

I get that these guys have no shame, but that doesn’t mean we should give them a pass for it. Shame on Johnson and shame on the Republican Party that won’t call this out even though they know it’s wrong.

Donald Trump commandeered 2,000 of our state’s National Guard members to deploy on our streets.  Illegally, and for no reason.

Right now there are more U.S. troops deployed to Los Angeles than there are to Syria and Iraq combined.

Same here.

Asked my son to pick up glitter on the way home. I want the blade edge to sparkle. #NoKings

The officers who handcuffed Padilla need to be hauled in before Congress, made an example of, fired and arrested on live national television. They violated an American’s Constitutional rights and they assaulted a United States Senator.

House Dems are demanding that Noem testify before Congress after Sen. Padilla was detained by federal agents at her DHS press conference in LA.

The most important words of our Constitution are the first three: We the People. We have no Kings here, no monarchs, no slaves and no subjects. We the People.

So Kristi Noem goes on Fox and lies that Sen Padilla didn’t ID himself, even though the video is there for all to see. But get what she’s saying: Assaulting and handcuffing someone for trying to ask a question is OK in any case? This is a criminal regime.

A DHS spokesperson defended the detainment, accusing Sen. Padilla of failing to properly identify himself during Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference. But multiple videos show Padilla clearly identifying himself as a senator.

Republican Glenn Grothman: Let’s say they come here through the Gulf of Mexico

SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

After Sen Alex Padilla was forcibly removed and handcuffed at a DHS press conference, the message is clear: dissent is being silenced. Now more than ever, the people must RISE UP against authoritarian overreach and political intimidation. This isn’t about one senator. It’s about all of us. 1/2

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook. Our duty is to stand up to brutality. Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

Gavin Newsom and his team are doing a good job at social media. Using comebacks and memes to just straight up murder muffukahs. Pay attention, Dems. This is how it’s done.

Dystopian.

Important information from @aclu.org on your rights in protesting. Thanks, Sarah- please spread far and wide!

Thank you for your attention to this matter. #AccountabilityForJanuary6th

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Reporters: stop saying Los Angeles is under curfew. Downtown is under curfew. That is a small part of Los Angeles. Everyone else is going about their regularly scheduled lives out in the open and rolling their eyes at all of this.

If the law passes, new paperwork requirements and other logistical hurdles could lead to millions of people on ACA plans becoming uninsured, according to Congressional Budget Office.

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

Gov. Gavin Newsom made the case in a televised address Tuesday evening that President Trump’s decisions to send military forces to immigration protests in Los Angeles have put the U.S. at the precipice of authoritarianism. https://trib.al/EpbF098

Embarrassment

Newsom: This Saturday, he's ordering our American heroes, the United States military, and forcing them to put on a vulgar display to celebrate his birthday, just as other failed dictators have done in the past

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

ABC News has cut ties with its senior national correspondent Terry Moran after he posted that Stephen Miller is a “world-class hater” who “eats his hate.” Kudos to Moran for having the courage to speak the truth — and screw ABC News for not standing behind him and backing his right to free speech.

Terry Moran, if you’re reading this: the door is open.

ICE prepares to deploy tactical agents to BLUE cities nationwide www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

It helps to understand what is going on to remember that the people who join ICE are the same cosplaying, arrested development men who join rogue militias and Proud Boys to address their societal impotency, are people who retweet white supremacist propaganda, and believe Pizzagate was a real thing.

So tired of their hypocrisy

Maddow: I also feel like there’s not very much about that that I don’t understand. Like, it’s the same everywhere. This is blond Berlusconi, you know what I mean? This is inarticulate Viktor Orbán, right? These guys are all the same. The authoritarian playbook is the same everywhere

Dear Members of the Military, You can conscientiously object to his war on America.

I’m excited for June 14th‼️ There will be peaceful protests in all 50 states reminding the Felon we haven’t had a King since 1776 and never will. It’s also a day that Pope Leo XIV will make a virtual appearance to a sold out crowd in Chicago! Is something else going on that day🤔 #ProudBlue
