Well, considering the news media keep showing the same guy with the punk pants and tattoos who looks like he’s auditioning for Mad Max, maybe just arrest this guy and stop trying to pretend there’s an army of anarchists at these protests when it’s mainly taco trucks and bands playing.

It's an important contrast to keep in mind: Trump called up the National Guard for a manufactured crisis in Los Angeles. But he NEVER called up the National Guard for his insurrection on January 6th 2020.

Trump's NIH Director is asking for an $18 BILLION cut to NIH. He refused to say how many fewer clinical trials would be funded as a result. That’s because he knows these cuts mean fewer clinical trials & fewer cures. Trump's budget is going NOWHERE as far as I'm concerned.

"Because you stood up, I can be here." A young girl wrote me that after we defeated the Trump administration's 2017 travel ban. My daughter helped me write a reply. They later met and created a connection. Two 8-year-old kids can understand things in a way our president cannot.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Monitoring the situation in my hometown of Burbank as a brush fire has led to several evacuations. As always, make sure to follow any and all evacuation notices from local officials.

No, RFK Jr., sacking the best public health experts in America won’t ensure “the safest possible vaccines.” It will only make America sicker.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

The DOJ just charged a Russian national with moving hundreds of millions through the system—mostly using a foreign stablecoin called Tether. The GENIUS Act includes a massive loophole that allows Tether to evade basic safeguards. It must not move forward without real fixes.

Trump's NIH Director couldn't tell me how many clinical trials had been impacted by grants he’s frozen, terminated, or delayed. So I told him—he cancelled clinical trials to: -Develop an HIV vaccine, -Treat type II diabetes -Help cure recurrent ovarian cancer. This is what's happening RIGHT NOW.

As of 7:45PM ET, protests of historic size are happening in Chicago and NYC, the other two of the three largest cities in America. There are no reports of violence. Why? Because police are standing back and letting people peacefully express themselves. Trump wanted and incited the violence in LA.

For a city that's supposedly burning, it sure looks righteous & chill to me.

Corporate media should be sharing images of the thousands and thousands of peaceful protestors - not the one guy who is probs a boogaloo boy in disguise throwing a stick at a cop with a machine gun. Show the world the United States is protesting!!

Proud to join community members today to speak out against President Trump’s latest travel ban. Washington was the first state to challenge the initial travel ban in 2017 — and we won. While it is difficult to believe we are back here again, Washington will lead on this issue as we did before.

Would you look at that: the Department of Government Efficiency has not actually been efficient at all. By some counts, it’s cost taxpayers more money than it’s saved and has certainly caused chaos that literally led to people dying.

Corporate media is exacerbating the situation, using hyperbolic headlines and inflammatory reporting to get clicks. They are giving Tr*mp more power than he has and smearing Californians. The legacy corporate media is showing their whole fascism-appeasing ass with the "coverage" of LA right now.

I am really fucking sick of white men posting Doomer shit like "America is over", "we are cooked", "RIP USA". Put down your phone, get off your ass and do something to protect democracy and care for your community. You all are playing right into Tr*mp's hand with this doomer shit. Knock it off.

Maybe Trump's been spending too much time baking in the sun out on his golf courses. But someone should probably let him know this is America, not North Korea. Americans have every right to peacefully protest his birthday parade. Every right.

This is so true. Many people are admonishing the protesters for "playing into Trump's hands" but there have been lots of large scale peaceful protests since January that have gotten virtually no attention. So really, the advice is for people not to bother. "Don't make trouble..."
