So now he's backing off to "weeks." Better than hours. But just shows how ill thought out any of this rhetoric is or has been.

That’s a “no.”

Karen Bass: "It's felt in LA like we're part of a grand experiment. How far will the public tolerate the federal government intervening and seizing power from a governor? I think it's being tried out here."

Can someone in immigration law explain to me how this is legal?

This drum circle is a sacred honor in memory of slain MN State Legislator Melissa Hortman, at the candlelight vigil

Filing a mining claim could save the public lands you love. This bill sells off every Americans birthright. For $274 you can gain exclusive rights to all the hard rock minerals. In this thread I will show you how you can file a mining claim. 1/? www.fieldandstream.com/stories/cons...

Just your average commander-in-chief pop-up shop.

Padilla on Noem: "How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles? She came through the Senate for confirmation."

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

Everyone in Governor Newsom’s Press Office deserves a huge raise

Lots of empty space on the mall half an hour before the parade starts.

Best image of the day:

"One deep" does not boast "a huge crowd"!!

Shame on those cops! They should be shunned!

They shut off access after 5000 of us were admitted, and there were hundreds more or thousands even milling around outside. It was a huge success indeed.

🎇 Great job San Francisco! You are beautiful!

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

I’m heartbroken and horrified by the brutal murder of Melissa Hortman and her husband. Sydney and I are keeping Senator Hoffman and his wife in our thoughts as they fight to recover. This kind of violence is devastating. No one should ever fear for their life like this, especially in their own home

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

Mark Ruffalo just fired up the crowd in NYC’s Bryant Park for #NoKings Day reminding us it’s about democracy, not dominance. 🇺🇸✊🏽🔥 #NoKings #KnowYourRights

just watched this netflix documentary on the oklahoma city bombing and once again i'm struck by how so many of the popular media takes on this event just avoid entirely the connection to organized white supremacism

Over 4.8 million and counting and many events haven’t even kicked off yet. We’re aiming for over 10 million today to hit the 3.5% rule. The crowds are massive and still growing. We are so proud of all of you. Huge shoutout to Texas you showed up!

So proud to be a part of this amazing morning. Location ocean beach San Francisco #nokings

You can’t see me bc I’m holding a flag but guys I live in a 2k person extremely rural town in one of the reddest counties of WI. So many people showed up there was a line all the way to the highway. I often feel a bit afraid due to my identity in this area but #nokings brought out so many

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar dined with Melissa Hortman, a Minnesota lawmaker and decades-long friend, just hours before she and her husband were shot and killed in what authorities are saying was a politically motivated killing. “I wish everyone had known her like we knew her,” Klobuchar told POLITICO.

Reminder that there is going to be a huge day of nonviolent protest against Trump this Saturday, June 14 -- "No Kings". New statement from the organizers in response to Trump federalizing National Guard (and threatening to use active duty troops) against civilians: www.nokings.org/news/nationa...

"On June 14, Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else..." www.nokings.org

Marine veterans are speaking out against the troop deployment in Los Angeles. Across the country, they’re taking down their American flags that have flown in front of their homes for years. Remember, we have friends everywhere.
