These are the proactive steps states need to be taking right now. Another thing: every Democratic governor needs to have a sit-down now with the state adjutant general to carefully review that person's understanding of their responsibilities to their state, its citizens and the federal constitution.

Dan Price is best known for being the CEO who lowered his salary from $1.1 million to $70k while raising all his employees' salaries to match his own. But he SHOULD be best known for multiple women accusing him of rape, sexual assault, and abuse. skepchick.org/2025/06/best...

here’s who else knew this: anyone w a brain. the only ppl who didn’t know trump was sexually assaulting girls, sometimes alongside epstein, are fucking morons. trump said it, newspapers printed pics of them at parties, there’s audio of epstein complaining about trump fucking his girls etc etc

Absolutely wild that LA has deployed LAPD, DHS has deployed both ICE and CBP, now the white house is calling in the national guard. You'd think the wildest riot in history was going down in LA right now, but it's actually just a bunch of protestors mostly just standing around holding signs.

ICE are a clear and present danger to every person in the United States. They're a fascist gestapo operating without any accountability. Abolishing ICE is the compromise.

ICE terrorizes our communities. People protest, and now Trump is sending 2,000 National Guard troops into Los Angeles. This is how martial law begins in the so-called land of the free.

Anyone even remotely playing devils advocate for, much less defending, ICE or cops is getting hard blocked. That’s just how it’s gotta be, you’ve shown you can’t be trusted.

Earlier today ICE agents hit someone with a car and tear gassed a neighborhood, sparking several fires and disrupting businesses. Immigrants, by contrast, did not.

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

A truly sad sight. Trump’s America. 🇺🇸

The repeated use of ALL CAPS tells you this is a calm and rational decision

I was an immigration lawyer for about fifteen years. The people I met… the way they wanted to give their absolute best to this country, and then DID. Skills, ideas, beauty, culture… that’s what they bring. America is a nation of immigrants, and immigration is what made America.

Happening right in front of us. .Could not be more obvious

SOMEBODY needs to explain to the rest of us HOW THESE FCKNG BASTARDS float along w/o paying, w/o severe restrictions on what they are allowed to spend, and not be in jail. They ALL do it. Why are they even allowed to spend $1100/h vs being forced to use court apptd attys.

MEMPHIS — YESTERDAY: “He’s not a criminal!!” ICE agent clumsily PULLS A GUN on the daughter of a man they grabbed. Original post: www.facebook.com/share/v/12LM...

“Her lawyer’s in the bathroom.” Trump’s masked ICE Gestapo snatches a woman when her lawyer goes to the bathroom, then forcibly carries her into an elevator after she appears to faint.

All of this fighting between two bullies just distracts from the power of Miller and Vought, the ideologues behind everything that’s happening.

iFixit says the Switch 2 is even harder to repair than the original

Just so we're clear, No, we're not with the drug-addled, delusional billionaire who polluted our election, just because he's now fighting with the vile, traitorous, felon-r*pist he helped place in power. Sincerely, The Left

What in the actual HELL NO

Let’s hope someone from NASA HQ is running up Pennsylvania Avenue with a fistful of plans for what we could spend all that sweet SpaceX money on, eh? If we’re cancelling government contracts randomly would be nice if science benefited for once. And it’s not like Starship works.

The problem, which Mike Johnson knows, is that these officers aren't even identifying themselves as federal agents or law enforcement. Allowing them to hide their identities allows them to hide from accountability. No names, no badges, no warrants, no due process, no hearings, no justice.

And who they didn't approve of

The question was never if they would turn on each, but after how much damage had already been done. Unfortunately, the answer is "immeasurable."

Whenever Dr Oz says Medicaid doesn’t “get its money’s worth” or people must “prove they matter” to qualify… just remember this is a strategy. They want you to blame disabled and poor people for high taxes. They want us to take the blame so they can get richer. Don’t let them get away with it!

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

The Big Fucked Up Bill, is NOT a spending bill. It’s a government restructuring bill, that consolidates power in the executive, defunds critical services to the point of absurdity, removes the power of our courts to enforce the law and dramatically curtails voting rights. It’s Project 2025

A Cantonese opera inspired by U.S. President Donald Trump features a Chinese actor donning a blond wig sparring on a Hong Kong stage with a man playing a double of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

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.

As usual, the cruelty is the point. Missouri has lived under the boot of a GOP supermajority for 22 years and they have consistently defunded schools. And now they are planning to close schools for the severely disabled.

So he’s just approving russia’s next attack on civilians

Israel warns residents to leave parts of Beirut's southern suburbs - https://www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/live-blog-update/israel-warns-residents-leave-parts-beiruts-southern-suburbs

In the past week since the Israeli government launched a widely condemned aid scheme, circumventing the UN to take control over the distribution of aid across Gaza, Israeli forces have opened fire multiple times on starving Palestinians queuing for aid, massacring over 100 people.
