There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

Just to recap, Trump has taken the extraordinary step of federalizing 2000 member of the California National Guard — over the objections of the state’s governor — in response to a protest that currently involves A FEW DOZEN PEOPLE AT A HOME DEPOT

By the way, the United States of America didn't become fascist under trump. This has been America every day for anyone not white since 1607. Not saying this isn’t fucked up, but it’s nothing new. Ask Native Americans. Ask Black folks. Ask all BIPOC about how the US has always treated them.

What's going on in LA should be a real wakeup call for folks who don't already know that a fully liberal government can still wind up a police state and without some major change to the way we talk about the militarization of policing, nothing will get better

I’m a bit depressed that I don’t have a new Doctor Who episode this weekend, and more than a bit anxious that we don’t know when the show will be back. But, Ncuti’s Doctor was hope and joy and fun and I will miss him so much www.npr.org/2025/06/07/n...

L.A. is a Mexican-American city. The majority of the population is made up of racial and ethnic minorities. We are all happy living together and really do not want to see our friends, neighbors and families being terrorized by federal robo-cops. This is bullshit.

Your birth control is your right. Today, 60 years after #SCOTUS decided Griswold v. Connecticut, we’re fighting harder than ever against Republican attacks on reproductive health care with @reprocaucus.bsky.social Donald Trump & House GOP: back off our birth control.

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.

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to be law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

The Trump admin dreams of using protest as an excuse to invoke the insurrection act and launch a crackdown. It would be a huge mistake to conclude from this that the correct strategy is to keep protest minimal in the hope of not giving them a pretext. That's nothing less than pre-emptive surrender.

Accurate. And horrifying. Do everything you feel you can to protest, whether in person, online, in phone calls, but we need to be as relentless as they are.

From today's #AT40 hash: Those two songs are even beneath the Me First and the Gimme Gimmes treatment. The all-covers "supergroup" that included members of NOFX and Lagwagon appear to have not covered either one.

It’s very obvious that ICE is trying to provoke violence to give the Trump regime an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act.

Talking to my dad in LA this afternoon about the ICE raids that happened in the area yesterday. He is so enraged, he can’t formulate words—and he can’t seem to understand why Americans aren’t connecting the dots that the power to disappear immigrants grants the power to disappear everyone else.
