What you saw from Trump in CA this weekend was not law enforcement. What you saw was a test of ways and means for Trump to disrupt and pervert the 2026 elections. My latest in @theatlantic.com www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The pressures of the presidency and a very public feud with former “First Buddy” Elon Musk appear to be tripping up Donald Trump.

Well, threatening to unleash the US military against peaceful Americans in a dystopian flouting of law *has* gotten everyone to stop talking about Donald being on Jeffrey Epstein's list.

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

@rosenzweigp.bsky.social: "And now, with this new memo, Trump’s team may be setting the country on a path to further expand the immunity bubble, to protect not just the president but his aides as well—enabling yet more lawlessness" ht: @jonlemire.bsky.social 🎁: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Hi, I’m God. How would Jesus feel about ICE? What would Jesus do? What would ICE do to Jesus?

So Miller incited these protests by ordering officials he’d no authority over to ditch the administration’s stated policy of only seeking undocumented persons with criminal records and instead demanding they raid—yes, he specifically ordered this—Home Depots to get the max number of nonviolent folks

It’s helpful to always keep in mind that Trump is a fucking idiot.

In his case, the D stands for Dunce.

🚨🚨🚨 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did 🚨🚨🚨

What’s clear is Trump is stirring the pot in LA. The 2000 federalized California National Guardsmen are a show of force. They have a limited role in support of policing, in Title 10 status. They can provide indirect support to law enforcement. The Cali NG knows its limitations in this status.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

BREAKING: Defense Secretary Hegseth says he’s ready to deploy Marines to LA over anti-ICE protests. Not cops. Not Guard. Marines. The mask is off. This government treats protest like war. Let that sink in. www.the-express.com/news/us-news...

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

A protest against the detainments of immigrants at 930 e towne in LA beginning to escalate. Detainees are being filed into trucks. Large protest is here. Tear gas has been deployed. More to come.

Reminder that California subsidizes red states.

Re-upping this:

BREAKING The President of California’s largest union has been detained during an ICE raid.

Zelensky has promised to stop the war between Trump and Musk in 24 hours.

If I was in the Senate my first question to Howard Lutnick would be ‘so when you bought the townhouse next door to Jeffrey Epstein, in a deal brokered by Jeff’s own brother, how many times did you see Trump there and is that why you held a fundraiser for him there in May ‘19?’

To recap, narcissistic rage and decompensation confirmed that in the relationship between two exploitative narcissistic psychopaths: • Elon knowingly paid $290 million to get an Epstein pedophile elected to the Presidency. • Elon is 100% certain he got Trump elected.

US payrolls growth dropped to 139K in May.

Friday’s NY Post cover is pure gold

104 years ago today, one of the worst acts of racial violence in U.S. history unfolded in Tulsa. We will never forget.

Yes! Tom Homan has been very clear about this. If locations don’t cooperate with ICE, the admin will ramp up public and splashy arrest operations.

The grifts are endless.

"Evil" is an insufficient word to describe the racist fascist Nazi fucks causing this devastation.

Taco when you call him a chicken

🚨🚨🚨Law enforcement used license-plate readers in several states to search for a woman who had an abortion apple.news/AtyY6Tzv9Szm...

When does the New York Times style section do a fun summer fashion piece on the short sleeves and white supremacist ink of ICE agents?

MAGA will deport or imprison as many immigrants as possible, eventually they’ll openly advocate extermination or quietly carry it out while gaslighting that they aren’t doing it. They will also target LGBT citizens, minority citizens including African, Latino, Asian and others.

“Bukele rose to near-total control of El Salvador on a tide of support from the very gang he’s credited with defeating, according to a U.S. federal indictment, the Treasury Department, regional experts, and Salvadoran media…” www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

It took the Nazis 10 years to get to the holocaust phase, that’s 10 years Germans believed they’d get another election or that maybe it won’t be so bad. That’s where the majority of the US is right now.

*Raises hand*

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.
