I feel this...

He's going to war with Iran. He's putting pressure on his political enemies, arresting some The media has sold itself out to him and pretty much repeats the talking lines ok'd by the White House He disappears people in unmarked vans.

Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) Mayor Ras Baraka (D-Newark) Judge Hannah Dugan (WI) Controller Brad Lander (D-NYC) This is not normal. This is not okay. We cannot let them convince us that this is normal or okay.

If you read my pinned report, you will fully understand why the President of the United States accidentally wrote "we" here. Americans should expect for our country to be at war shortly. All the vacillating by Trump is merely a performance.

The whole world collectively is saying WTF!

Zohran Mamdani, who recently cross-endorsed with Lander, called for the comptroller’s immediate release. “This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice,” said Mamdani.

"The People United, Will Never Be Defeated!" chant crowds as they welcome Mayoral Candidate Brad Lander after he was released from ICE custody with charges dismissed.

SCOOP: The far-right “Appeal To Heaven" flag, a popular symbol for Christian nationalists that was waved by January 6 rioters, was raised over the Small Business Administration headquarters last week.

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

Schatz: People are seeing what chaos really looks like. We are on the brink of some very dangerous developments in the Middle East, and we have chaos inside the US—not chaos the federal government can’t control, but chaos the federal government is, in some instances, precipitating or making worse.

This is so utterly wrong. It is all so utterly wrong.

NEW: Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) speaks on Senate floor at 1230pm eastern about his "forcible removal from Dept of Homeland Security press conference", per advisory

Unfortunately this weird, sick cult of grifters and rubes that worships a bumbling, incompetent, malevolent, mentally ill, narcissistic congenital liar in orange makeup has control of the government. Scary times.

My kingdom to never have to read another post that says "this is a distraction from this other awful thing he's doing!" None of it is a distraction. He's insane.

Good question.

“I'm fed up to the ears with old men dreaming up wars for young men to die in.” ―George McGovern

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.

“We” are fighting a foreign war with zero consultation with or authorization from Congress, and no address to the nation other than Truth Social posts.

Whoa! NYC mayoral candidate and current city Comptroller Brad Lander seemingly arrested at the NYC immigration court while attending to escort someone attending their hearing.

Who is sick of white male, religious fanatics with guns?

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

For sure, five times a day Trump is having a "I hate being president" tantrum. Then, Eric strokes him and shows him their account balances growing. And then Stephen Miller reminds him of all the people of color and women whose lives they can make miserable. And then he sucks on his binky and sleeps.

www.axios.com/2025/06/15/a... Padilla says FBI and National Guard escorted him into Noem's press conference

We absolutely must not forget what this administration did to Senator Padilla, because it tells us what they are willing to do to us.

The assassin has a wife AND a roommate, and both of them are walking around free?

If they were Black the house would be under arrest.

Mike Lee was born with every conceivable advantage in life. His father was US Solicitor Gen & dean of BYU Law, where Mike went to school. Older brother UT Sup Ct justice. Then he got jobs where family connections certainly help open doors. But he decided he wanted to be Catturd.

A senator celebrating the murder of political opponents should be expelled. Not debated. Not excused. Expelled.

I sure hope MN officials are involved in Boelter's interrogation, b/c I'm pretty sure FBI HQ isn't interested in how he was radicalized, and the country needs to know, to be prepared for more.

Congress should pass the bipartisan BARK Act, my bill to save millions of pounds of perfectly good pet food from the trash and get it to the growing population of hungry shelter dogs and cats. We can do this. Let’s get it done.

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal." That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.

Friend: What keeps you motivated to keep doing what you do Me: Spite

My law firm is currently litigating 55 voting and election cases in 24 states. Two points: This is a very large caseload for this point in the election cycle. It is more evenly spread across states than usual which reflects the creep of voter suppression laws into even safe GOP states.

Political violence must always be condemned.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Ben Shapiro getting all upset at the parade coverage as though he isn't used to taking part in activities where no one comes

🤔

"This is what you get when you order your 79th birthday celebration from Temu, but didn't pay the tariffs."

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

This is how it’s done! 👊🏿👊🏾👊🏽👊🏼👊🏻

“When they slaughtered Congress, we didn't wake up. When they blamed terrorists and suspended the constitution, we didn't wake up then, either. Nothing changes instantaneously. In a gradually heating bathtub, you'd be boiled to death before you knew it.” —Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

@atrupar.com wins the internet today! 👏👏👏

And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.

Dear Congress, We don’t want a king. So do your jobs or resign. Sincerely, Americans who believe in the Constitution #RemoveTrump #NoKings

Holy shit, New York! Here’s the full view. #NoKings #50501Movement
