I'm grateful that if I post that Stephen Miller is a hateful dickbag on social media, no one can fire me from MSW Media because I own it. I might not be your cup of tea, but thanks to all who support independent media 💙🙏

A second international reporter has been targeted while on the air. An Australian journalist was shot with a rubber bullet live during a broadcast from Los Angeles.

What Trump is doing in California is right out of the authoritarian playbook. Violence is never acceptable — period. But people have the right to peaceful protest. Trump needs to let local law enforcement do its job and stop adding fuel to the fire for his political spectacle.

My statement on Trump’s Marine deployment:

I never, ever want to hear another god damn word about state’s rights…

This is precisely correct.

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.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social posts a timely reminder today of "the principles the founders articulated in the Declaration of Independence."

We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

@repmaxinewaters.bsky.social pleads with National Guard to not use their guns, yesterday.

Heather Cox Richardson: Trump Manufactures a Crisis to Distract from Real Problems dianeravitch.net/2025/06/09/h...

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 As you know, SEIU-USWW President David Huerta was assaulted, injured and detained by ICE while advocating for immigrant workers. He remains in custody. 👉 There are #FreeDavidEndRaids events popping up across the country! We won't succumb to tyranny.

I AGREE!!!

So much this…

Exactly.

The MAGAs are out in full force today because their narrative is crumbling. Incredible work so proud of all of you. It’s impossible for this administration to control the narrative when everyone has a camera and access to social media.

JUST IN: 700 Marines deployed to L.A. from 29 Palms. If Trump can override California, he can override any state. So ask yourself: who’s next? And what happens when people stop backing down? This isn’t crowd control — it’s occupation.

If Trump and his thugs arrest Gavin Newsom, every blue state should invoke a tax strike against the Federal government. I say this because my understanding is that straight up secession is technically not possible.

Fuckkk!!! 500 Marines have been mobilized to go to LA.

Be warned: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism. https://www.commondreams.org/news/david-huerta-arrested

I am everyday people. Yeah, yeah❤️

The world’s richest people have taken over this government, and they’re going after the country’s and world’s poorest children. www.cbsnews.com/news/white-h...

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

The people of Los Angeles will rally on Monday, 6/9 to demand the release of everyone unjustly detained by ICE, like SEIU leader David Huerta, and an end to militaristic escalation on our communities. Join us and @aclusocal.bsky.social at 11 AM in LA to call for an end to these human rights abuses.

🔥 LA PROTEST QUEEN 👸 TO ARMED NATIONAL GUARD IN LA: “This is how ridiculous you look!” *Puts on a dinosaur costume* 🦕 THEN: “What the hell is this? You’re Americans, aren’t you? Put down your weapons, don’t follow these fascists.” 🇺🇸 (Someone pls buy her a drink on us)

He didn't send the National Guard when this happened.

I also live in LA, the President is full of shit.

"it's not peaceful for people to be on the highway" -LA Mayor Karen Bass right now. This is what I mean when I say the word "peaceful" as applied to protesters is about prescribing placidity, not nonviolence. Calmly marching on a freeway is pretty inarguably nonviolent. " Peaceful" you can debate

Please repost! Contact the Swedish govt!

#Ukrainian General Staff: the strike in Cheboksary was at Progress plant. It produces key components for heavy combat equipment: electromechanical drives, hydraulic systems and control units.

Los Angeles is not a war zone. We are not descending into chaos and lawlessness. We’re a great city full of good people. We don’t need the National Guard.

Did you know that when Pam Bondi said "We presented El Salvador with an arrest warrant and they agreed to return him," she was admitting she failed to follow the extradition process, proving he could have been returned at any time? My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/abrego-gar...
