House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

Sen. Alex Padilla was just removed from Kristi Noem's press conference in Los Angeles (video: Bill Melugin/Fox News)

If a US Senator is not safe from being handcuffed and detained for free speech, none of us are safe.

A DHS spokesperson defended the detainment, accusing Sen. Padilla of failing to properly identify himself during Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference. But multiple videos show Padilla clearly identifying himself as a senator.

Never forget.

Mother of 2 (including 9-wk-old baby) + wife of US Marine had USCIS interview related to permanent residence status. She'd entered US from Mexico and was legally processed w/ her family about a decade ago. ICE arrested her over 2018 paperwork issue she didn't know about www.wbrz.com/news/ice-age...

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Here’s a video of Stephen Miller in high school screaming that he’s “sick and tired of being told to pick up my trash, when we have plenty of janitors who are paid to do it for us.” This is the sociopath shaping our immigration policy and so much more

The old orange guy can't even get along with Canada. Canada!

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?'"

Seth gets it

Why is ICE arresting employees but not employers? DOJ policy is to charge the most culpable people. The employers would seem to qualify.

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

BREAKING NEWS: Water sausage does incredibly important science stuff. Please stand back. This is really important work.

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho didn't hold back when expressing his anger and "contempt" after agents with Homeland Security attempted to gain access to two elementary schools earlier this week.

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

Major General Randy E. Manner, former Acting Vice Chief, National Guard Bureau statement to Fox News: "This is an inappropriate use of the National Guard and is not warranted.”

True story bro.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social

We’re deeply disappointed in much of the U.S. media. Grateful, however, to international journalists who are telling the truth.

Oh, honey . . . You can’t even get your wife back.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

"So here's the plan -- we impose massive tariffs on the nations that sell us food." "Hmm." "But it's OK, because we just rely more on states like California that grow a lot of the same things." "Oh, I guess that ..." "And then we go to war with California."

Way to go, Lady Horns. Hook’em.

Trump can't have it both ways. Either the economy is not only strong but "hot," and therefore doesn't need the Fed to stimulate it further. Or the economy is weak and struggling, and therefore the Fed needs to intervene and cuts rates. Which is it?

If you need a breather from all this bullshit, here's a photo of Earth. From Saturn. We're that slightly brighter star at centre right.

I am so glad "why tariff banana" thought is reaching members of Congress. It's the most obvious example of how insane this administration's trade policy has been—officials like Lutnick can't give a good justification for it because there simply isn't one

This is Lola. She is one of the most skilled soccer dribblers we've ever seen, so it makes sense that she's already capturing footage for her documentary. 14/10

The Trump team thinks Confederate traitors who killed Americans are worth honoring. But Americans who fought at Normandy in D-Day like Medgar Evers, or served in the Navy like Harvey Milk and Cesar Chavez, or worked as a spy for the US Army like Harriet Tubman, well, they are NOT worth honoring.

I'm not even going to ask, Steve....

I just put my own assignment into chatGPT and produced three reflective essays that look just like the 70 that I am currently grading. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. It's like reading the Matrix. So many consistent patterns. What a waste of a learning opportunity.

very fun to read frederick douglass accurately describe the problem with the pardon power in 1867
