influencers should have to keep it to the privacy of their own homes. “oh im creating content in this restaurant” you have violated the social contract and shall be punished tenfold

If you want to show solidarity with Los Angeles, the best thing to do is organize protests against ICE tonight/tomorrow in your own cities. Search the web for ICE rapid response networks in your own city / state and sign up. Help your neighbors.

The LA protests will trigger a drumbeat of "law and order" messaging from the White House and their media allies as a prelude to invoking the Insurrection Act. This is entirely predictable, and any Dem or media outlet that facilitates this narrative will be aiding Trump's authoritarian project.

Kat just said "Just because Stephen Miller wants to hit his quota of brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't make this okay" about the LA protests on MSNBC. I wish I knew how to clip these things.

“Squared off”

one reason for this is how few US newsrooms are willing to interview and hire immigrant and international journalists due to legal costs for work visas, and how often non-white immigrant perspectives are considered 'bias' instead of expertise

ICE crossed a line in LA

“The idea that immigration enforcement is the most significant national security and public safety concern that we as a country face is deeply unserious.” https://trib.al/NlZyqwr

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

looks like an objective assessment to me

If you’re furious or disappointed in your local leadership and want to run for office, @runforsomething.net will help you get started. runforwhat.net

the funniest thing about the “ice agents are human beings with families” line is that there is no evidence to support the claim. oh they’re real people? what are their names? as far as I’m concerned they’re the T-1000 until proven otherwise

Yoooo @nathangrayson.bsky.social

Cannot stress enough that this is a pitiful action by a weak, scared, pathetic group of insecure, wannabe authoritarians, and they should be mocked until the end of time for wanting to bring in the military over some people protesting them at a Home Depot.

Earlier this evening, the Univision crew grabbed their gear and started running when federal police began shooting pepper balls at us. @lataco.bsky.social

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

Bernie Sanders: "We have a president who is moving this country rapidly toward authoritarianism...to a large degree the future of this country rests with a small number of Republicans in the House & Senate who know better, who do know what the Constitution is about, and it's high time they stood up"

Trump can’t stand to be humiliated. This is what's driving his dictatorial moves. But he will overreach. He already has. And this overreach will ultimately be his undoing. As long as we keep our heads — and engage in peaceful civil disobedience. Be strong. Be safe.

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

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.

guess i'm getting bangs again

What the fuck is the point of paying money to a police department if they won’t protect people from hostile masked kidnappers?

💥 BREAKING: ICE tries to raid Home Depot located at 6400 Alondra Blvd. Paramount, CA Protesters are able to successfully stop them. 6/7/2025 @12 pm #ice #raids #losangeles

Still LA, ICE is gathered again to start another operation after tear gassing civilians for hours at Paramount. A massive ICE presence stands across the street from civilians. This is live right now.

reminder that abolish ICE was the moderate position

Video from about an hour ago as less than lethal rounds are being used against protesters in Southern California

I can’t compete with this

ICE is detaining people in LA in a basement with no beds, no air, no light and not enough food and water. These are crimes.

abolish ICE and lock these agents in a dungeon.

People in Los Angeles rising up against ICE.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

West Virginia is warning that women who have a miscarriage could be charged with a crime unless they contact local police. Every woman in WV should call 911 every time they have a period. Gum up the system with malicious compliance. www.cnn.com/2025/06/06/h...

This is happening in CA right now. ICE is locked inside of a store. There is a military presence also. 930 Towne Ave Los Angeles. If you're out and about in the area stop by and shame the Gestapo. #SheShed www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjb2nWL9/

ICE waited until a woman’s lawyer went to the restroom then dragged her away. She fainted from stress and they dragged her unconscious body into the elevator, refusing medical attention.

Jessica Tarlov: “How can you actually sit here in comforts of our air conditioned studio or in your big nice house and be comfortable knowing that there are people not convicted of anything left to rot in a foreign prison?” Gutfeld: “He has been convicted.” Tarlov: “He has not.”

Pam Bondi is thug scum. The Attorney General making these comments about a defendant in a federal criminal case is lawless. This administration’s unethical hacks continue to demonstrate that they want to be deposits.

If a seven-year-old can’t walk to the store the fault lies not with the parents but with the community.

We don’t need to back off the American Gestapo and we don’t need to respect its agents. People exercising state violence are not entitled to anonymity. Nor are the people directing the state violence.

Abrego Garcia being returned to the USA not 24 hrs after matty y went to the mattyresses to argue it was a classic example of a lost cause is the perfect distillation of the value of matty y as a political observer

Your bill is going to cut coverage for 11 million Americans and it’ll still cost more than universal healthcare. Healthcare is a human right, you absolute ghouls.

I think I’ve recognized that I don’t like Matt Yglesias because it makes me anxious when I can’t tell whether someone is mocking themselves or not

I can't believe any Democrat would THINK of allying with Elon Musk. I won't take money from the guy who does a Hitler salute. It's really that simple.

🚨BIG STORY: Senators put a line into the crypto bill requiring bankrupt banks to prioritize remunerating crypto investors over depositors. The provision could require banks to take cash from your savings account & use it to pay senators' crypto donors. www.levernews.com/cryptos-new-...

i'm starting to see some scoldy posts pointing out that we are laughing about a fire on the deck of our sinking ship and i have to be honest once the ship started sinking i decided i would take the laughs where i found them
