Factoid: Over-riders, bright metal window surrounds & chrome filler cap were just three features you got in the De Luxe version of the Morris 1100 over the std car & thus it was the De Luxe that appeared in publicity pics. That’s understandable, the random setting of this pic, less so… (📸: Autocar)

Kristi Noem was Fox News repeating the lie that Padilla never identified himself, & that once he did, he was freed. Literally the moment agents began removing him, he said, "I’m Senator Alex Padilla." They still forced him to the ground & handcuffed him anyway. Just Orwellian, gaslighting disinfo.

Where the fuck are all the Republican Senators coming out to support the right of a fellow Senator NOT to be body-slammed and cuffed for asking a question in his OWN building in the state HE represents? You KNOW what happened. You SAW the video. WHERE ARE YOU FUCKING COWARDS???

An advance look at “On Parade,” David Plunkert’s cover for next week's issue. #NewYorkerCovers

The Specials released Ghost Town on this day in 1981. It was recorded in the basement of the house on the right, which was John Rivers' studio on Woodbine Street in Leamington Spa. My photo taken in 2021. A commemorative plaque has been added to the the building since then

SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

""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," said Simon..." www.wnep.com/article/news...

Excellent piece from @bylinetimes.bsky.social on the fake news of the “exodus” of millionaires. Research re-written to blame Labour for an event that predates Labour and it more likely to be due to Brexit. Nice work @peterstefanovic.bsky.social

Sitting US Senator Alex Padilla forcibly wrestled to the ground and arrested by the FBI for attempting to ask a question of DHS secretary Kristin Noem.

Sen. Alex Padilla was forcibly removed in handcuffs from a press conference in Los Angeles Thursday after attempting to ask Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem questions. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Speaker Mike Johnson just called on the Senate to censure...Sen. Alex Padilla. You read that right. The American Fascist Party at work.

When someone like Vindman is saying this, things are dark. He’s not posting 4th hand information. Don’t consult your hope when assessing what’s up ahead. It will lead you astray. Base your plans on reality.

Fuck the puppy killer and the curling iron she rode in on

You may have seen clips of this speech, but if you haven't yet, you really ought to watch the entire thing and then share it with everyone you know! www.youtube.com/watch?v=8slq...

No wonder Donald Trump didn’t get in to Harvard. He’s “a low IQ individual” who got terrible grades

Today, the court will hear our motion for the temporary restraining order I’ve filed to block President Trump’s militarization of Los Angeles. We need to put a stop to this chaos now.

That’s not what the military is supposed to do. That’s called a military coup.

12 June 1936 | A French Jewish boy, Paul Solman, was born in Paris. He arrived at #Auschwitz in a transport of 1,000 Jews deported from Drancy. He was murdered afer the selection in a gas chamber.

If the feds’ objective is to “liberate” Los Angeles and California from its democratically elected leadership, then this not a peacekeeping mission but a program of invasion.

It can happen here. It is happening here.

Senator Padilla was forcibly removed from DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s press conference in Los Angeles while attempting to ask a question. Padilla was thrown down and handcuffed. A senator in his own state! (He has since been released.) The Trump regime is out of control.

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

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

Double.

10 June 1928 | A Polish Jewish girl, Golda Barmherzig, was born in Będzin. In August 1943 she was deported to #Auschwitz from ghetto in Będzin. She did not survive.

Honestly this is a pretty good response

This!

Newsom: I told the president, just get it over with. Arrest me. Move on. If you need someone’s head to scalp, then do it with me. But stop messing with these kids. Stop messing with four-year-olds. Kids in elementary school

Wyatt Russell just brought tears to my eyes….

Today Speaker, Mike Johnson called for vigilante violence against California Governor Gavin Newsom.

In the meantime, 🥭 Mussolini is worried about arresting Gavin Newsom. share.newsbreak.com/dhcjb313

MADDOW: “What is this country going to allow him to do? This is an attempted authoritarian overthrow of the 🇺🇸 Constitution and Government… imposition of a dictatorial regime. The strength of the movement against him is what will determine our fate as a country.”

she’s got a point

In 2024, we warned of the darkness of a future Trump dictatorship. Jailing leaders of American cities, disappearing dissenters, and using military force to harm Americans. That future is on our doorstep. But we can stop it. Don't be afraid to exercise your power and tell Trump enough is enough.
