On DuckDuckGo, I was unable to find a photo of a Black man or a Brown man who had visible bruises when I searched for abuse of men in the search engine's images.

There is no justification for the aggressive behavior displayed today toward Senator Padilla. This is a U.S. Senator. In a federal building. In his own state, doing his job. If they can handle a Senator like this, they can do this to anybody. It is an authoritarian response.

More Americans voted for Senator Alex Padilla than for 48 of the 53 red state GOP U.S. Senators combined.

US Senator Alex Padilla said, "If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question, if this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers,

Huh. I was just wondering if ICE had POST certification. They apparently...do not. This is bad(tm). This is very, very bad. As bad as you think and know cops are? They have POST, which is police officer standards and training. If you don't know what that is, you should read up but the jist...

Newsom: "He's been a stone cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what he actually talked about. It would send shivers up your spine."

Governor JB Pritzker said to Rep. Mary Miller: "I am not going to be lectured to by somebody who extols the virtue of Hitler." Finally, someone says it to their faces.

One truth we truly need to rally around is the uncomfortable but undeniable fact that Republican Party is best described as a hate group.

Lies. The effing video says it all. Thugs say nothing as the Senator is being dragged out, no lunge, & identifies himself. BTW, ICE Barbie should not open her mouth about political theater after her ghoulish cosplay in front of the imprisoned immigrants for broadcast PR. 🦋 bsky.app/profile/ndha...

Tired BS trickle down theory. Didn't work then, won't now. "When you cut taxes for the wealthy, it’s like feeding Popeye a can of spinach; pumped w/this almost magical fuel, the entire economy will burst with new power & vitality...revenues will surge, & deficits will even go down." 🧾 is.gd/vJZcCI

They advertised on Craigslist to fill seats at the Kennedy Center the night Trump appeared so it wouldn’t be obvious to everyone that Trump has destroyed it. And still people booed. Confirming he’s a LOSER. washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/tlg/d/wa...

We need more members of Congress, a co-equal branch of government, speaking out against Trump's intentional escalation of the situation in LA. Tell Congress to push back and oppose Trump's fascist use of the National Guard here: bit.ly/449vUkP #ResistTrump

There it is - Donald admitting the brutal, repressive immigration related assault on American communities from his boss - President Miller is hurting … checks notes …Americans. Basically just handed another pick 6 Dems can take it to the House (but the morons will probably step out of the sideline)

BESSENT: We inherited this fiscal situation-- BENNET: You inherited it from Donald Trump! He's the first president to come back after a four year hiatus after we know exactly what the last tax cuts did, which was blow a massive hole in our deficits and debt. You can't sit here and lie about that!

Treasury's Scott Bessent (who knows better; his Wall Street buddies are laughing at him) is slaughtered here by Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH). He tries to explain (aka lies) how consumers aren't hit w/price increases caused by tariffs paid by businesses importing goods. 📺 bsky.app/profile/atru...

There’s a lot going on with Trump and Republicans' “Big Beautiful Bill,” and it’s all bad. 16 MILLION losing health care. 4.3 MILLION losing food assistance. And 3 TRILLION added to our national debt. All for billionaires and billionaire corporations to get even richer.

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.

Pathetic: ABC’s GMA, World News Tonight, This Week, CBS’ Mornings, Evening News, Face the Nation, NBC’s Today, Nightly News, Meet the Press, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, and The Wall Street Journal all failed to cover Trump's new office for ethnic cleansing.

Senate Republicans just confirmed an IRS Commissioner who: 1) Supported legislation that would abolish the IRS 2) Doesn’t know the law 3) Has a track record of doing whatever Donald Trump tells him to do It’s dangerous and absurd.

I really hope that if we get out of this, everyone here and beyond will become part of the movement to abolish ICE and to hold police departments accountable. Because they do not serve us.

You MAGAs wanted mass deportations so badly. The problem is, of course, is that Trump lacks a qualified Cabinet, an adult human attention span, and any kind of plan to vet millions of cases. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/hey-magas-...

Rep. Lynch: "In late March, ICE agents wearing masks detained Rümeysa Öztürk. And those of you who watched that abduction, when you compare the old films of the Gestapo grabbing people off the streets of Poland ... it does look like the Gestapo."
