If you need a mask to enforce the law, you don’t deserve a badge. Federal agents are snatching people off the streets—faces covered, names hidden. This isn’t safety. It’s secrecy. It’s not America. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

www.laprogressive.com/democracy/th... We’re now living in an early-stage police state. After California Senator Alex Padilla was assaulted for saying, “I’m Senator Alex Padilla and I have question for the Secretary,” DHS Secretary and notorious puppy murderer Kristi Noem went on Fox “News”

The fact that Israeli warplanes are still bombing the hell out of Iran after the supposed end of the Iranian nuclear program sort of confirms this was never about the nuclear program, doesn’t it The Israelis just wanted to kill a ton of Iranians and destroy their infrastructure

Dear NYC: TOMORROW is Election Day and the whole world is BEGGING you NOT to fuck this up. You have a chance to choose a Dem mayoral nominee who is smart, decent, talented, funny and deeply committed to the people of the city. DO NOT opt instead to vote for an old school corrupt, sex pest

Today—after the war was supposed to be over, due to the alleged destruction of Iran’s nuclear program—Israel has bombed Shahid Beheshti University (a war crime) and a landmark in Tehran’s Palestine Square (a war crime) and launched the worst bombing of Tehran yet. Israel is out of fucking control.

FUN FACT: Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

We tried to tell so many of you that electing Netanyahu’s pal would be a disaster. Congratulations, you really showed Kamala.

Why are no headlines focusing on the unconstitutional and dictatorial nature of this action?

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war. If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

an easy disguise: all you’d need are some black masks

BREAKING: PLEASE SHARE Christian Stephen, a member of the US military was placed on a 72 hold in a psych facility for posting this video stating that he wants to uphold our Constitution.

Mayor Karen Bass standing on business🔥 His name is Senator ALEX Padilla.

JUNETEENTH in Harlem. This is what America is about. Perhaps the most American holiday of all, Juneteenth honors the very best of what this country can be. It’s a celebration of the courage to fight for freedom, even when the cost is steep. It’s sad that the president gets angry over this

😂😂😂😂

oh, you won't catch me doing that. nosireebob!

@annettebeebe.bsky.social Thank you TC @turquoise-cat.bsky.social @daisyd.bsky.social @ivanasstaircam.bsky.social @diannatibbetts.bsky.social @jen.sheshed.rocks @loveshine204.bsky.social @scottietakeson.bsky.social @allie-froglegs.bsky.social @allie6179.bsky.social @annettebeebe.bsky.social

Do you know how badly you have to screw up as a Republican to get this kind of turnout in IDAHO? #NOKINGS

Double.

The lack of total outrage at the indictment of Congresswoman McIvey is truly frightening. Hakeem Jeffries ought to be causing high holy hell over this. She is indicted because she is Black. Half of the GOP caucus engaged in sedition and Garland felt arresting a member of congress went too far.

Something the Democratic Party is NOT doing right now, which it MUST DO, Is run ads on EVERY MEDIA PLATFORM KNOWN UNDER SUN, about the unconstitutionality of using troops on domestic soil. STOP ASSUMING people learned the Constitution in school. THEY DID NOT! You cannot

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

RFK Jr. — a vaccine conspiracy theorist — just fired the entire independent vaccine advisory committee of the CDC. This is incredibly dangerous and will result in more Americans dying of preventable diseases. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

We're walking right into it. No one appears to have any idea how to stop it. We know where it's headed. Martial law. The end of democracy. No more elections. A waking nightmare. I promise to amplify anyone offering legal, workable solutions. I haven't found any yet. And the left is leaderless.

The President of the United States is advocating for arresting the duly-elected Governor of California for his SPEECH He thereafter admitted that the Governor of California had committed NO CRIME—but he still wants him arrested Spend as much time as you need processing what that means for America

Marine veterans are speaking out against the troop deployment in Los Angeles. Across the country, they’re taking down their American flags that have flown in front of their homes for years. Remember, we have friends everywhere.

Trump's war against the blue states has begun. First up LA, then NYC, Chicago, SF, Denver, Minn., & Boston. Don't be surprised if majority minority cities are isolated via road blocks using the military. His parade is a facade to import full armor into the capital. It'll be peaceful if we let it.

When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.

"I voted for lawless, anonymous, masked, and unchecked police" is one hell of a jump from "eggs cost too much."

This!! 👇👇💯💯

👏👏👏

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.”
