When the LA police says you are overreaching, you are overreaching.

ICE is a criminal organization willfully carrying out illegal orders and the people of California are right to resist this. respect to the fighters and power to the people

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487

Feels like a uniquely American brand of stupidity to try and mobilize troops for the battle of Home Depot

@governor.ca.gov @mayor.lacity.gov We elected you to do a job protecting the citizens of California. NOW IS THE TIME TO DO YOUR JOB

The U.S. military has been ordered to attack Los Angeles. That's where we are now.

The Secretary of Defense just threatened to use Marines from Camp Pendleton against Los Angeles

And we covered it up... #nazis #CatholicChurch #WWII www.theguardian.com/world/2011/m...

Re-upping this “One First” post from April asking—and trying to answer—five questions about the domestic use of the military:

They’re not behaving as if they’re in a four-year term. They’re behaving as if they’re in an everlasting dictatorship. Are we all clear on this?

Cali is not 🤬 around today ✊🏻

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

Legend.

So much we are still learning and hypothesizing www.iflscience.com/the-black-ho...

Regime forces in riot gear and gas masks in the city of Paramount, deploying tear gas at protestors standing up against ICE kidnappings. #3E

OMG!! 😆✊ Chappy you beautiful SOB!! You just saved my TV and another Webb start loss!! #HaHa Braves! Pierce Johnson! #SFGiants

What a simp for fascism America’s biggest standup comic is. A disgrace to the art. What kind of Narc, as we once said, has the head of FBI on for a friendly interview, gets the chance to go in on what would be the biggest sex scandal in ever, and ends up doing PR for Jeff Epstein’s old best pal.

If we lose this game 2-1 I'm gonna vomit. And smash something. I don't care about lol. #SFGiants

Trump called musk a big time drug addict, and told JD Vance to be cautious about how he spoke publicly. Ted Cruz is scared. The loss in Wisconsin was the tipping point. Musk begged Trump to reverse tariffs. Musk and Bessent got into a physical fight over DOGE failures. Gift link: wapo.st/3TeoIxy

Just weak man! This team is SO WEAK at the plate!! At least during #torture we were WINNING. 😡 #SFGiants

A line has been crossed that cannot be uncrossed.

The Medicare fraud Republicans have been looking for is being committed by CEOs in boardrooms, not immigrants in our communities.

What is the major malfunction with this team?? And #FireTheUmps! He's squeezing Webb! 🤨 #SFGiants

Dammit Webb! Come on man! 🤨 #SFGiants

There seems to be a total news blackout on the continuing violent ICE raids in Los Angeles.

So far Dominic Smith is awesome! 🤞 #SFGiants

Election day? For Mayor of San Antonio Texas? Today? www.ksat.com/news/local/2...

It’s so funny how the same centrists arguing Democrats should pivot away from identity issues are also incredibly weak on economic issues. Rahm is like, let’s stop talking about bathrooms and start talking about means tested tax credits.

I agree with the observation here that MAGA’s “talking points aren’t constructed to persuade but to protect.” January 6th conspiracy theories serve that same purpose - to deflect blame so MAGA diehards don’t have to accept that their side was responsible. open.substack.com/pub/theratio...

Depictions of extreme wealth are everywhere on television of late and, well, it’s all quite boring, writes @sophiegilbert.bsky.social:

If a Muslim in the US publicly called for a missile strike on a famous celebrity activist onboard a civilian ship or plane, the FBI would be investigating them for terrorism. But a rich white guy gets to incite violence without any consequences 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽

Resisters please read this advice from @jaybird54.bsky.social . This is going to be a long fight. Please take care of yourselves. Engage in self care . Please never feel guilty or selfish for taking some time for yourself away from the fight. I promise you, we all understand the struggle.

If Elon Musk thought he was vying for control of the GOP, he was wrong. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

In order to avoid the wrath of Trump & MAGA bosses, House Republicans voted to cut clean energy production & jobs Now 13 of them -- mainly those targeted by @electdemocrats.bsky.social & House Majority PAC in 2026 -- are trying to do takesies-backsies (list below) www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
