Terry Moran worked at ABC for 28 years. Now, for calling Stephen Miller “hateful,” (which he 💯 is per his own family), ABC fired him to appease an authoritarian hypocrite who ran on “free speech.” This will have a chilling effect on all journalists. Fourth Estate fails. Authoritarianism advances.

There's a reason you separate military and the police...

This story leaves me feeling both sad and heart-warmed. THIS: “She decided to do this in her own terms. She has no criminal record. A hardworking taxpayer who’s been working 12-hour shifts since she was 15, six days out of the week. She never asked for a handout. She didn’t get food stamps…”

ICE is gearing up to deploy to these blue cities: Chicago, NYC, the DC area, Seattle, and Philly. If any of these are your hometowns—get ready. If not—watch anyway, all the way through, because Trump’s unhinged order will affect you. Spread the word.

Everyone should look on the bright side: We have no idea if Trump will send Seal Team Six after Gov. Newsom. But at least we know that, if Trump did it, he’d be immune from criminal prosecution for doing it.

"An American president ordering materiel into the nation’s capital might be, on its own, a regrettable instance of jingoism run amok. In the current climate, there is no way to interpret it as anything other than a show of force." Against us, to be clear.

Donald Trump’s America

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.

Republicans not only want disease and death for Americans, but for the entire world as well. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/04/h...

This, to me, is one of the major differences in New England’s concept of liberty and freedom. Just live your life and let your neighbors live theirs. Be who you want. Marry who you want. It doesn’t bother my life in the slightest.

“Young soldiers make mistakes. But if senior officers remain silent, what lesson will those young men and women take from what happened?” says @radiofreetom.bsky.social. I’m embarrassed by those troops & their leaders, and they all ought review the army’s rules. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Democrats should introduce articles of impeachment for RFK jr Even if it doesn’t work, which it probably won’t, democrats need to make clear that he’s not gonna get away with it

Probably a bad idea to move all those troops and tanks to the other side of the country for President Trump's I'm a Special Boy Parade

In Los Angeles, Trump administration launches new rules for U.S. protesting: "Your First Amendment right only allows you to carry an American flag, unless you are a Trump supporter during an actual insurrection, in which case you can carry a Confederate flag." www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

WASHINGTON (AP) - Pentagon says deploying Marines and National Guard to protests in Los Angeles will cost $134 million.

The Trump administration’s plan for FEMA is to fuck over the states and then blame Democratic governors

Printed tonight.

ICE interrogated a *US born* friend for 3+ hrs because of the color of their skin. Agents interrupted class & called them into a campus office. Triple checked birth certificate/DL/SSN, then interviewed colleagues about the person's "immigration" status. Citizen Y Hispanic name N Speaks Spanish N 1/x

This took a while to get done, but I've chronicled my day among the protesters in Los Angeles, and the idea that this is anything but a celebration of cultural heritage and a firm, nonviolent demand to protect family, friends and neighbors is totally ridiculous. prospect.org/justice/crie...

Guy on CNN about to pop a vein that even misdemeanors MUST BE PUNISHED. Remember when the Manhattan DA charges were filed against Trump and they *lost their effing minds* that these were “only” misdemeanors that had been bumped up to felonies? I just can’t

Heads up. Be aware Trump has moved way beyond traditional presidential powers as he sends federal troops into California. It seems Gavin got his goat. But this is dangerously irresponsible. See Ryan’s notes!

Yeah, no shit, Dude.

WTF?! @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.org None of you are meeting ANY moment! We won't forget that you didn't stand up and fight for the citizens of this country! We're done with the entire party! May each and every one of you lose your seats. You're no better than the GOP.

Jesus Christ, ICE is trying to snatch children from schools. THIS ADMINISTRATION IS TRYING TO STEAL AND DISAPPEAR CHILDREN

Incarceration rates— ⚖ Los Angeles: 309 per 100,000 people ⚖ South Dakota: 370 per 100,000 people Sources: brookingsregister.com/stories/stat... www.ppic.org/publication/...

"The institution that really could constrain the president is Congress." Please laugh.

We are at War. Whether we like it or not. Trump violently deployed the National Guard/Marines to California & LA over the objection of California’s Governor (Newsom) & LA’s Mayor (Bass). This is the beginning. Trump’s violence will escalate. It’s up to US if we roll over or we fight back.

The people elected to speak for us are leaving it up to us to speak for ourselves in protest. There should be no federally-elected Democrats who are not on the streets of LA right now. Whether you will admit it or not, we are being failed by this current makeup of the Democratic Party.

The US now has no vaccine advisory committee, no CDC director, and an anti-vaxxer as Health Secretary.

Newsom: Just moments ago, they called up an additional 2,000 National Guard troops. So now it’s 4,000 total—of which only 300 have actually been operationalized. And guess what? Yesterday, LAPD had to use their already scarce resources to protect those National Guardsmen and women…

Newsom: “Pete Hegseth is a joke. He’s a joke. Everybody knows it, he’s so in over his head. What an embarassment. He’s just weakness masquerading as strength..”
