Tonight, I introduced legislation to stop Trump from from leading us into an illegal war with Iran. Another war in the Middle East could cost countless lives, waste trillions more dollars, and lead to even more deaths, more conflict, and more displacement.

I just like to post these data from time to time to puncture the mythological aura of mid 20th c protests. They were less popular than pretty much any 21st c mass action & people criticizing them used the same lines. Protest is about people coming together, shaping narratives, & building power.

Just sold Robert F. Kennedy Jr. an ounce of the gamy-smelling green pellets I feed my turtle for $1200. "Can you throw in some of the juice?" he asked. It took me a minute to realize that he meant some of the water from the tank. I filled a shot glass with it and he tipped me $100 in cash.

Your service means nothing to the regime, your loyalty to the Constitution and the People of the United States is a vice in their eyes not a virtue. Only if you swear unwavering loyalty to them, and even then you will be disposed of when your usefulness runs out or they are bored with you.

<thread> On the left: June 12, Judge Breyer writing that THE test for whether the US Marines/Guard violate Posse Comitatus will be whether they've engaged in "detaining" civilians. On the right: June 13: See for yourself. Note: The DoD has confirmed the detention of civilian to Reuters.

The first civilian detained by U.S. Marines in Los Angeles was an ARMY VETERAN on his way to a VA APPOINTMENT

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Never forget that the same man who called the January 6th insurrection a “beautiful day of love” and refused to lift a finger for 187 minutes to stop the horror unleashed on our Capitol has deployed the National Guard to intervene in Los Angeles to “address the lawlessness in California.”

“Who did they protect? Who did they serve?” Sigcho Lopez asked the crowd. “These are people who came to renew their work permits. Now we have a 10-year-old boy without a mother.”
