It’s not a surprise that the man who purposely incited a violent attempt to overthrow an American election would now purposely incite violence on the streets of Los Angeles as a justification for military force against American citizens. Not a surprise at all.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

People of L.A Please protest peacefully no matter how much you are provoked. Otherwise, the violence is all people will talk about rather than the real illegal actions currently happening.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

So, according to MAGA, setting a parked car on fire warrants the National Guard, but erecting a pop-up gallows with the VP’s name on it does not. Do I have that about right?

To Trump and Republicans, it's “fiscally responsible” to kick millions off Medicaid and SNAP—   In order to fund billionaire tax breaks that will add $2.4 TRILLION to the deficit.   The big, ugly bill is a total sham. It steals from everyone to give to the few.

If history is any guide, fake emergencies are intended to lead to real crackdowns.

On a cold spring morning, we hiked, we shared stories, and we showed up for each other. That’s what democracy looks like. Let’s keep showing up. Let’s meet the moment. I’ll see you on June 14 for #NoKingsDay.

To be in public office right now is to constantly ask yourself: How do I make sure I'm standing on the right side of history? There's a simple answer. The wrong side of history will always tell you to be afraid - the right side of history will always expect you to be brave.

To anyone who wondered, what could go wrong if we elected as president a highly volatile, deeply dishonest, simple-minded cretin with a revenge fetish, the answer is THIS. All of THIS.

Peaceful protests are fine. Violence is not and will only destroy your message. And please for the love of God do NOT wave a Mexican flag. American flags or nothing

"They had Mexican flags!!! People should only be allowed to to have the Stars and Stripes, not flags of a countries we were once at war with!!! They should be arrested for this!!!"

Trump is planning a military parade in DC on June 14, but the biggest story of that day will be the actions we take everywhere else. I'm rallying on No Kings Day to reject strongman politics and corruption. app.sosha.ai/s/DYlXGE42

75 citizens proudly showing up, along with strong support from passing motorists, for week #17 in front of Tesla, Lyndhurst, OH #Teslatakedown #ohio50501 #dogsnotdoge

They are trying to force Harvard to admit more conservative students. Pardon me, but that sounds an awful lot like DEI, only DEI for stupid people.

Oh, honey . . . You can’t even get your wife back.

For all California residents and even nonresidents, this site will give a heads-up on ICE raids in California in real time. Genius

#FuckTrump

ICE isn’t rounding up migrants at Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ meatpacking plants. They're provoking riots in Los Angeles. I wonder, is this provocation laying the groundwork for a pretext to declare martial law? And then I remember all those many tanks shipped to DC, the home of so many protests.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

For Reals

Make no mistake: Illinois is leading the nation in strengthening women’s health care. With the passage of HB 3637, we are expanding the ways we shield our providers from punishment for delivering life-saving health care. We are not going back.

“When citizens must think twice about criticizing or opposing the government because they could credibly face government retribution, they no longer live in a full democracy.”

Civics 101: presidents are not kings…

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

That would be awful. Don’t share this.

"Well, we are all going to die." --Senator Joni Ernst That has to be the glibbest way any politician has ever told a constituent that they didn’t give a shit about them.

Is it just the ones who are inside someone’s womb? Asking for a friend. FFS.

You’re telling me this guy was on drugs? I’m not buying it.

“The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.” — Treaty of Tripoli, signed by the United States in 1797.

Anyone else?

When shooting your dog in the face isn’t the worst thing you ever did.

Sure, everyone under the sun is going to run in 2028—I get it. We can walk and chew gum, but our NUMBER ONE PRIORITY must be taking back the House and Senate so we can IMPEACH and REMOVE that POS with the $400 million flying bribe —in 2026!

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

"It's not a fight over whether Democrats become more moderate or more progressive. Voters want Democrats to be more aggressive. They want to see Democrats standing up to Donald Trump, pushing back, fighting. It's not really related to policy, it's about posture and attitude."
