Happy Father's Day to all of the fathers, stepfathers, uncles, godfathers, grandfathers, and friends who raise us with pride, joy, and endless laughter. And to Dougie, my best friend and a wonderful dad: Thank you for everything you do for our family. We love you.

Trump parade vs No Kings march, San Diego

"Taco Trump" and other caricatures take over local parades. 🌮 #NoKings protests draw millions.

Look at downtown LA right now

I am devastated by the loss of Minnesota State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, in a horrifying act of violence. Our prayers are with their children and all who loved them, and with State Senator John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, who were also targeted.

Farmworkers are hiding because Trump made them targets. Without farmworkers, the crops that feed our nation rot and our tables go empty. This isn’t strong immigration policy — it’s economic sabotage fueled by hate. www.bbc.com/news/article...

An advance look at “On Parade,” David Plunkert’s cover for next week's issue. #NewYorkerCovers

My friend, AZ State Rep. Aaron Márquez, is an Army veteran and he has something to say: Trump doesn't deserve a parade, but there are a lot of Arizona veterans who do — because they understand what it means to put country before self.

From the moment I saw that positive pregnancy test, I knew I would do *anything* to protect this little one. That’s what being a parent is and I refuse to judge or condemn anyone who seeks a better life for their children.

His diplomacy was supposed to bring us world wide peace on Day 1.

Trump’s weakness on full display. Too weak to stand up to Putin on Ukraine, Trump is too weak to restrain Netanyahu's interference in ongoing negotiations for a peaceful way to prevent Iran from going nuclear. His weakness heightens the danger of the US pulled into another deadly/costly Mideast war.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs says we’re not being invaded

This is a lie. We all saw the video. The Senator clearly identified himself, and he did not "lunge" toward anyone.   If these miserable propagandists will lie to you about roughing up a U.S. Senator in a room full of reporters, what won't they lie to you about?

The court just confirmed what we all know: The military belongs on the battlefield, not on our city streets. End the unnecessary militarization of Los Angeles now, Donald Trump. Refusing to do so will only confirm your authoritarian tendencies. The country is watching.

Resign now, Kristi Noem.

Nine years ago during Pride, 49 beautiful lives were stolen at the Pulse nightclub shooting.   In their memories, we must keep working to end senseless gun violence, hate, and bigotry in any corner of our nation.

Our job as elected officials is to stand up and fight for our constituents. That’s exactly what Senator Alex Padilla did today.

The use of force against U.S. Senator Alex Padilla as he tried to demand accountability and transparency from a lawless administration is outrageous and an affront to democracy. We will not be intimidated or silenced by Trump and his gang of thugs as they try to march us further into tyranny.

What happened to Senator Padilla is absolutely DISGUSTING. Point blank, period. This shit is out of control. Another elected official disrespected while doing their job. (1/2)

Free speech is not a crime — full stop.

Senator Alex Padilla is one of the most decent people I know. This is outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful. Trump and his shock troops are out of control. This must end now.

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.

Today, in the House Oversight Committee, Republicans called in governors from so-called “sanctuary states” to try and bully them over immigration policy. They want y’all to think this hearing is about solutions. But let’s be honest—it’s not about fixing the system.
