Los Angeles mayor Bass just said the quiet part out loud in her news conference. Paraphrasing, Bass said, “This week has been a test to see how far the federal government can get away with taking over local jurisdictions and state laws.”

Dystopian.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

Double.

The people at @smartelections.bsky.social are moving forward with a major lawsuit in NY over this obvious instance of fraud that took place in the 2024 Election... [ Reposted from @realdlhughley.bsky.social on Instagram ]

The president’s power to call out the National Guard is not a blank check.

It’s not a surprise that the man who purposely incited a violent attempt to overthrow an American election would now purposely incite violence on the streets of Los Angeles as a justification for military force against American citizens. Not a surprise at all.

On roads: Sam Graves has been my Congressman for over 22 years. Sam is also one of Chairs the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee -- he voted against the 2021 Infrastructure Act. Missouri has some of the worst roads in the country, especially where I live, in his district.

The MAINSTREAM PRESS is FAILING AMERICA failing – and people are understandably upset The media is still pursuing the appearance of fairness by treating true and false, normal and outrageous, as equally valid #MOG8 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Just so good 🤣🤣

I'm not a historian but my analysis is it's "Not good" when a government constantly commits crimes and tells the legislature, courts, and general public "What are you gonna do about it"

Spanish film maker Pedro Almodóvar, while accepting the 50th annual Chaplin award.

He’s disappearing innocent people off of our streets and ordering the military onto our streets. He does not give a damn about the rule of law. He is the very tyrant our founding generation rose up against 249 yrs ago. It’s time for the American people to rise up again.

If the objective was really apprehending people without legal authority to be in the country, ICE would never have to leave Mar-a-Lago.

👏👏👏👏

She was right.

If you agree, please share!

Nothin but the facts

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

ICE causing fires from their own tear gas and flash grenades, don’t get it twisted. They’re the ones causing damages to cities.

President Trump stumbles while attempting to board Air Force One

ABC should be required to air this a dozen times a day, just like FOX did with Joe Biden for two years as an apology to Terry Moran for speaking the truth.

It’s also 5 years ago dumbass.

We’re deeply disappointed in much of the U.S. media. Grateful, however, to international journalists who are telling the truth.
