“.. The plaque has been completed and in storage since at least last year, but GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson has not committed to installing it at the Capitol.” @cbsnews.com @macfarlanenews.bsky.social www.cbsnews.com/news/police-...

Different costume, same sentiment.

Right now there are more U.S. troops deployed to Los Angeles than there are to Syria and Iraq combined.

When you go out there, don’t march for the Democratic Party, a candidate, not your state, or even your constitution. March for your community, your neighbours, friends, family, yourself. You aren’t marching for political dominance but survival and security for those you love. You are defending.

NEWSOM: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, Putin, dictators that are weak… How weak do you have to be to commandeer the military for your birthday?“

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

He among you who has never deployed the National Guard against US citizens to distract from the richest man on Earth calling you a pedophile can cast the first stone. One line, please.

I'd say dollars to donuts, but the Pentagon Pizza Meter is in play

We are, and have been, in crisis. #NoKings

And frankly, y'all better realize its not Trump whose the biggest problem. It's the circle enabling him, and big, wide eyes in Stephen Miller.

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety. It's our job.

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”

100%...imma need those wealthy white men to wrinkle their suits and join the fray, because standing by is just complicity.

IMPORTANT: Before the fascist attack on Senator Alex Padilla, Kristi Noem said that her gestapo in California were staying to "liberate the city socialist and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country." Don't let that slide by.

Think of ICE as one of those crooked Florida police departments in small towns that pulls over *thousands* of drivers on I-95 for *any* reason to meet quotas for tickets. Stephen Miller has given ICE quotas for arrests and they will meet those quotas whether the arrestees deserve it or not.

As always, Pete's speaking truth. I'll go farther: this is fascism. We are in crisis.

"I never thought I'd be posting about mitigating PTS and generalized anxiety symptoms while marching in large crowds to redress grievances against a fascist dictator, but here we are." #GreatRead - @alisongill.bsky.social www.muellershewrote.com/p/protesting... - @muellershewrote.com

Nine years ago, a gunman fueled by hate opened fire at Pulse nightclub, killing 49 and injuring 53. Easy access to an assault rifle turned his bigotry into a massacre. As we celebrate Pride Month, we must remember how hate can lead to violence and redouble efforts to protect all communities.

Of course they're lying.
