That's the US's problem. They keep trying to cure something without admitting what the sickness is. It's like your leg is broken so, not only is it difficult to walk but you're in pain. But the doctor keeps telling you to take Tylenol for the pain and telling you to do squats to strengthen your legs

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.

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...

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!
