The MN assassin's ties to the New Apostolic Reformation begin with his being a graduate of Christ for the Nations Institute. Wired further reports that in 2023 he preached, ”God is going to raise up apostles and prophets in America,” he added, “to correct His church.” www.wired.com/story/shooti...

@msnbc.com reporter at the 1:15 mark. “The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings

Didn’t watch a ton of it. But the parade seemed embarrassingly low energy. Not saying I’m expecting it but cld say Hegs getting canned over it. He’s definitely yelling at someone tonight.

We have plenty of reasons to be in the streets today. But one big one is we’re marching because Rep. Melissa Hortman can’t. We’re sending love to her family, and we’re sending rage toward Washington, D.C.

The contrasting images of a DC ghost town/military parade and 1800 American cities and towns with well-attended protests is going to drive Trump batty.

In a move of exceptional depravity, masked ICE agents arrested a pregnant U.S. citizen just days before her due date. “He was kind of shoving me away from the door, and uh, that’s when I kind of just like leaned forward because I was kind of trying to protect the stomach.” https://trib.al/mRq3qbZ

No Kings Day is here. Today is going to be one of the biggest and most widespread days of peaceful protest in American history, with millions of Americans taking to the streets in every state. This land is our land and we don’t do kings here. Please join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #nokings

Murderers impersonating cops is the natural outflow of actual cops insisting they need not identify themselves nor show their faces. Anyone can yell “police” and you’re just supposed to cower I guess.

Californians: If you’re protesting today, protect one another and hold the line for peace. There’s no place for violence in our democracy. If you see agitators, alert law enforcement and look out for your fellow citizens. Stay safe. Stay peaceful.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

Yesterday, I met with a 12 year old boy in Oxnard, CA. His mom and dad have been fieldworkers for over 20 years. ICE agents snatched his parents from the fields and left this boy alone with no clue when he’ll see them again. A 6th grader.

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

This is 100% the fault of ICE and the Trump admin, which has deliberately incentivized this behavior with their tactics. Their goal is to encourage white nationalist groups to dress up as ICE to attack minorities, and the increase in lookalike crimes is to them an acceptable byproduct.

Note this well. The ICE budget is not about controlling immigration. It is about controlling American citizens. It funds authoritarianism.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle. Don't give them one. Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

Earlier today ICE agents hit someone with a car and tear gassed a neighborhood, sparking several fires and disrupting businesses. Immigrants, by contrast, did not.

The problem is not that there are too many Americans protesting in the streets. The problem is that there are not enough. Not by a long shot.

I truly believe part of the reason this is happening in LA right now is because they want to scare us into not protesting for no Kings day. DT is actually worried he’s gonna lose the news cycle so he wants to make sure everyone is too scared. 1/2
