It’s obvious but worth drawing out what raids of Home Depot’s of all places is about. It’s rounding up people who are really eager for work and for whom there is work, peoples whose labor is in demand. We know this but shows just how far it is from rounding up just the bad guys.

This is a lie. They tried. They didn’t like being criticized.

Breaking: ABC News says senior national correspondent Terry Moran "has been suspended pending further evaluation." This since-deleted tweet is the reason for the suspension:

@radiofreetom.bsky.social correctly writes that Trump aims to provoke. The Singing Revolution against the USSR succeeded because Balts remained resolute and did not give Moscow a justification to 'restore order'.

California representatives did a check in where migrants were being detained. They found no beds, no food and no water. Children were among the detained.

Very funny day to post this.

We hear about how pro-immigrant side is extreme. There is literally nothing more extreme than this statement. Being willing to sacrifice the country’s foundations for an evil goal

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.

JD Vance now wants to use the chaos ICE is causing in Los Angeles as pretext to pressure politicians to pass the Republican budget bill that will saddle Americans with trillions of dollars of debt, skyrocket the deficit, take away people’s healthcare, and give massive tax breaks to the wealthy.

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.

Tom is not wrong here. But the alternative is to let the fascists take your friends and neighbors. Winning in court can still destroy their lives.

🚨 THREAD: What just happened in Los Angeles is not normal, and it differs from past deployments of the National Guard in key ways that you need to understand. This is a breakdown of the history, the playbook, and why this move reeks of bad faith.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

the white house thinks brute force is, no pun intended, a trump card. they don’t anticipate pushback and they don’t know how to handle it with anything other than escalation. the issue is that each escalation is itself a gamble. if protesters refuse to back down, you’ve lost face. (1/?)

Imagine putting on all this tactical gear and latching onto a military assault vehicle so you can storm a minimall on Sepulveda and apprehend a line cook at family restaurant.

hoooly shit This is a real question posed to The New York Times Ethicist And their answer was not what some might call... ethical!!! www.nytimes.com/2025/06/06/m...

“What are the ethics of receiving money from an entity you consider kind of evil?”

What happened yesterday should radicalize you The LA ICE raid was full-on fascism The Abrego Garcia case is an abomination. We have a government that concocts charges against anyone it doesn't like, and pardons any criminal that supports Trump. And they are just getting started Free Kilmar!

You know who won’t have their social security net cut? Mike Collins.

BREAKING: The GOP has declared war on seniors. Mike Collins (R-GA) says the next plan is to end Social Security and force the elderly back to work. You paid in your whole life. Now they’re robbing you on camera.

Likely in light of the situation in LA, ICE leadership just put out a pretty outrageous message to politicians: “I’m demanding they stop.” He specifically calls out Mayor Wu and Hakeem Jeffries.

"Mayor Wu" as in Boston's mayor? So two people who have no relationship to Los Angeles, at all?

The videos coming out of the Gestapo terror raid in Los Angeles today are absolutely horrifying and really should wake you up to the new reality of American fascism. It’s here it’s coming for us all and unless we fight for one another we will not survive.

The Republican Party has fully embraced fascism and destroyed American democracy. But some Democrats still say Latinx. I have never felt more politically homeless.

"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...

say what now? popularresistance.org/ice-raids-es...

ICE waited until a woman’s lawyer went to the restroom then dragged her away. She fainted from stress and they dragged her unconscious body into the elevator, refusing medical attention.

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!

Step 1: NYT reporter posts own story to B'sky to farm clicks from a literate, politically engaged audience Step 2: dozens of people offer harsh criticism of the story Step 3: NYT reporter spends hours replying with affected snarkiness that fails to conceal a deeply wounded ego ... and repeat.

Really shocked that an admin filled with podcasters, social media influencers, reality TV participants, indicted felons, crypto bros, drunks, Fox hosts, drug addicts, weirdos, and unqualified ass kissing toadies can’t keep their shit together for 24 consecutive hours.

Holy shit, Connor McDavid 🤯 #LetsGoOilers | #StanleyCup

Bondi DOJ has a problem. On left: DOJ Indictment and Detention Memo allege Abrego Garcia lied to officer by not revealing he was coming from Texas On right: DHS Referral Report: "Subject stated he was driving 'three days ago' (11/27/2022) from Houston, TX to Temple Hills, MD (via St Louis, MO)"

As ever, the Republican platform is simple: they want to sexually abuse children, and they want you to pay for it.

As @liamdenning.bsky.social wrote today: “.. a regulation mandating that AVs use the lidar systems that Musk disdains .. would be .. a huge setback for a company that insists millions of the vehicles it has sold are essentially robotaxi-ready.”

Fascists gonna fascist

The Chief of the Criminal Division at the US Attorney’s Office/Middle District of Tennessee RESIGNED the same day the Acting US Attorney signed the indictment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. He writes: “do the right thing, in the right way, for the right reasons.” There are no coincidences.

The fact that Dems don’t use this as a culture war weapon is crazy and my personal theory is that they’re worried about how it would also affect Bill Clinton

This is corrupt. We all know that. So...why can't people -- msm -- say it? www.cnn.com/2025/06/06/p...

Your bill is going to cut coverage for 11 million Americans and it’ll still cost more than universal healthcare. Healthcare is a human right, you absolute ghouls.
