Lovely Fairywren. Marked sexual dimorphism - males adopt a highly visible breeding plumage of brilliant iridescent blue & chestnut. Eat insects, including caterpillars.

#LosAngelos Do not fall into the manipulation. TACO is bringing in the National Guard & may try to entice a Riot. *Do not engage. *Stay peaceful. *NonViolent. #BlueCrew #Democrats #TrueBlue #FuckTrump #Gverse #Resist #RedCrew If arrested call:

What happened to states’ rights, Kristi?

Don't forget it

The military isn’t being employed to carry out an immigration policy. The immigration policy, and especially the way the administration is choosing to carry it out, is an excuse to call out the military.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social it’s time to act. Sue them in federal court before they turn LA into a war zone. You’ve won before, do it again. This is federal overreach. Don’t let them use California as a stage for martial law cosplay. We need ACTION NOW. Sue them to stop this madness.

Smokey skies at sunset. Tonight just after sundown in the flat fields of Wood County, Ohio, where wildfire smoke has settled in and mixed with fog, like a puff from a stranger’s cigarette in crowd waiting to cross a busy street in the damp night. #sunset #smoke #spring #clouds #nature #ohio

He's calling it an insurrection. They know exactly what they are doing. This is all in THE PLAYBOOK. Suspend habeas corpus, declare martial law. No more courts. There goes elections.

@democrats.org @democrats.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Where R the lawsuits? American citizens R being attacked on the streets on the streets‼️ TACO is hurting Americans, where R our leaders? Where is @gavinnewsom.bsky.social? www.youtube.com/live/5WcSjqz...

i don't think i'm that special but so be it 😂

Heartbreaking 💔

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead: House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs

I know for a fact that citizens would not be getting tear gassed by ICE and DHS in Los Angeles in June 2025 if we elected the other viable candidate for president.

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

President Donald Trump is not backing off his battle with Elon Musk, saying Saturday that he has no desire to repair their relationship and warning that his former ally and campaign benefactor could face “serious consequences” if he tries to help Democrats in upcoming elections.

Good morning and have a great weekend! 🦒💚🦒

ICE is at war with citizens of the USA. They hide behind masks and conceal identities. They have no legal warrants issued by a judge supported by grand jury indictments. They are domestic terrorists. I call on our military to uphold their oath and remove this cancer from our nation.

"It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy” www.wnep.com/article/news...

The Department of Defense is banning books, curricula, and extracurriculars related to race and gender in schools on military bases worldwide. So we took them to court to protect our students' First Amendment rights.

Dear journalists. When the US President is openly accused of paedophilia the story is either impeachment or defamation. If not, the story is how words have lost all meaning, truth has lost all value, and journalists are now completely desensitised to lying and corruption.

We feel obliged to share this picture Tribune photographer Francisco Kjolseth took today at the Downtown Farmers Market in Salt Lake City. These two puffy white samoyeds? Their names are Nimbus and Stratus.

Since yesterday, immigration and other law enforcement have inflicted terror and chaos on residents of LA. The leader of California's largest union was among those arrested for protesting ICE's cruelty. Congress must hold President Trump accountable and stop him from terrorizing our communities.

Sad day in L.A. when ICE agents look like they’re part of a militia, covering their faces. If you’re enforcing the law, why the masks? This ain’t Iraq, it’s America. Or it used to be.

David Huerta peacefully stood up for his community during an ICE raid, and was forcefully injured and unjustly arrested. As educators and union members, we stand with David, @seiuca.bsky.social, and demand an end to these inhumane attacks. Where they bring terror, we bring solidarity.

This, Gavin, is what a leader does.

My heart is crying for Los Angeles

💯

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade. They departed Texas 5 days ago. What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel. (🎥 DW)

Federal prosecutor Ben Schrader resigns instead of pursuing phony charges against Kilmar Abrego Garcia. In stark contrast to the fragile, petty, egomaniacal babies yelling at each other this week, we should all aspire to this kind of patriotism and courage 🇺🇸

It's peak Northeast rose season!

This is what fascism looks like.

Well, this was a real treat this afternoon as I found this Periplacis menander #butterfly outside my kitchen window. A new species for @casabentbill.bsky.social (and for me). These have a wide range from Mexico to southern Brazil, but they aren't common. #lepidoptera #costarica #butterflies #bugsky

ICE rolls in, LA rises up.🔥 If Stephen Miller was looking for immigrants to roll over and just take it from his ICE goons, he picked the wrong f*cking town. Between yesterday in LA City and Paramount today, the community is fighting back.

U.S. immigration authorities extended activity in Los Angeles area on Saturday in the wake of protests at a federal detention facility and a police response that included tear gas, flash-bangs and the arrest of a union leader.

Perception isn’t your job. Authenticity is.

ICE agents are Gestapo. They act on behalf inhumanity, racism and cruelty, not constitutional duty or law and order. I hope they are protested against in every city they enter.

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives. Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.
