shoutout to every idiot who believed that trump would "end the wars"

Reuters: JUDGE ORDERS CALIFORNIA NATIONAL GUARD RETURNED TO GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM'S CONTROL - COURT RULING

I'm proud I don't have Andrew Cuomo's record of corruption, scandal and disgrace. And the name is M-A-M-D-A-N-I.

SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

a stark admission that they are here to usurp the authority of our duly elected government officials, punctuated by the physical removal of a US senator. Call it tyranny, call it fascism, call it authoritarianism. It's here, and it's coming for us all if we let this stand.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

An MSNBC anchor just definitively claimed Padilla didn't identify himself when video clearly shows he did. So fucking irresponsible. This is how lies spread.

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @dccartoonist.bsky.social )

Palmer: Charges should be brought against each one of you AOC: Raising the prospect of charges against witnesses is a form of intimidation is it not? Palmer: I strike those words

Everyone of the security guards that laid hands on him should be prosecuted by the next administration since we know this one won’t. Put those fuckers in prison for assaulting a US senator.

People get mad at me on bluesky but I rarely get called slurs, see someone posting a bullshit chart about how people like me are subhuman, and no one complains when i Romapost. People seem to actually read pieces I share! As far as social media experiences go it’s about as good as it gets

If you are dumb or naive enough to believe the grifters on the right who tell you they’re oppose to immigration because it drives down wages for native-born workers, just ask them 1) if they support raising the minimum wage and 2) how come the GOP doesn’t? Go ahead.

this post is so mangled by weasel words and passive voice that i literally don’t understand what the fuck it means

The Washington Post is hopelessly compromised. They contact an expert to help them write a story and then they question his credibility in the same story (the parenthetical info suggests he can't be trusted because he donated to Democrats at some point).

Yet another lie. 🤥 www.mediaite.com/media/tv/lap...

Playing in a bipartisan congressional baseball game with the party enabling the fascist assault on multiple Democratic led cities is quite a thing.

It took THREE WEEKS to get this indictment. I have to ask; how many grand juries did they shop before getting the indictment? www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

FOX: “27% support, 53% oppose” 👀 #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

This is how you normalize authoritarianism.

Angus: Canada can no longer view the United States as an ally. We know that Donald Trump doesn’t believe in liberal democracy—he doesn’t believe in the rule of law. Prime Minister Carney is not welcoming the leader of the free world to Canada. He is welcoming Vladimir Putin’s sock puppet.

💥 BREAKING: DICK'S Sporting Goods shareholders have voted to reject an anti-DEI proposal (tally TBA). Proposal asking DICK'S to report on "affirmative action risks" of "discrimination" cited lawsuits filed against other companies by America First Legal, a group founded by Stephen Miller.

Oh.

Idiocracy was a documentary.

Reporter to Leavitt: "I'm struck that the president has not at any point said 'the most important thing is to protect the 1st Amendment rights of peaceful protesters' ... why is he not out saying, 'all peaceful protesters will be protected?'"

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook. Our duty is to stand up to brutality. Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

I talked to @haaretzcom.bsky.social about Palestine and Israel, generational trauma, and how the far-right is trying weaponize Palestinian, Israeli, and Jewish pain for its authoritarian own agenda: www.haaretz.com/us-news/2025...

Los Angeles 2025

Maddow: I also feel like there’s not very much about that that I don’t understand. Like, it’s the same everywhere. This is blond Berlusconi, you know what I mean? This is inarticulate Viktor Orbán, right? These guys are all the same. The authoritarian playbook is the same everywhere

Thing I need all Dems at every level to absorb yesterday: if someone pulls a knife on you, you are in a knife fight, whether or not you want to be

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

The idea of a politicized military is terrifying.

www.newyorker.com/books/page-t... this is really good. A large percentage of people are quite stupid, or can be led to believe stupid things when it suits them. Also selfish and self centred. The pandemic proved that.

This dude who will “run” Doge now was the least important of the 3 founders of Airbnb by a long stretch. Brian & Nathan were the show when I took them all out to coffee 15 years ago after they launched, but Joe hardly registered, as inevitable extra founders do not www.nytimes.com/2025/06/10/u...

Every elected Democrat - not just in California but nationwide - should be on TV and radio today telling this story to the American people and condemning Trump’s DHS agents for trying to round up first graders in elementary school.

The city of Glendale, Calif. is ending an agreement with ICE to temporarily hold migrant detainees in the local jail. NPR's A Martinez speaks with Mayor Ara Najarian about the decision.
