Donald Trump deployed more than 700 active U.S. Marines — men and women trained in foreign combat, not domestic law enforcement. We honor their service and bravery. But we do not want our streets militarized by our own Armed Forces. Not in L.A. Not in California. Not anywhere.

President Trump's warning that protests of his military parade will be met with "very big force" is in direct opposition to free speech and democracy. This is the president's way of crushing dissent, @hcrichardson.bsky.social explains:

Ship collisions and noise are pushing whales to the brink–but there’s a simple solution. Slowing down ships could save thousands of whales and other marine life. Urge your leaders to commit to real ocean protection at the upcoming global summit! action.wemove.eu/sign/2024-6-...

Peaceful protests are not a threat to our country. They don’t need to be “quelled.” They’re what free people do in a healthy society. They should be welcomed.

You can almost certainly find a "No Kings" event near you on June 14th. Just saying... www.nokings.org

As Trump plans mass deployments of ICE in Chicago, a car just sped through a group of protesters. I was at the Federal Plaza protest. It was PEACEFUL. This violence and chaos are what Trump, his masked thugs, and the people who support mass deportations stand for.

Overpopulation.

Car drives through ICE Out protest in Chicago.

Hundreds gathering at the Colorado Capitol this evening for an emergency “ICE Out” rally in solidarity with protests in L.A.

Oh look, tech company emissions are already up 150%, and the AI data center build out has just gotten started.

"Mainstream media has a duty to inform its audience that Trump/Miller policies are in fact hateful. But it rarely does so. Moran is to be commended for speaking truth to power. Speaking truth to power is, after all, what journalists are supposed to do." — @nberlat.bsky.social

If you are following Trump’s playing commander in chief in the faux CA situation (which he is trying to make worse) here is the CA response: oag.ca.gov/news/press-r...

As the Senate considers changes to the House-passed reconciliation bill this week, the message from the public is unmistakable: stop the cuts, tax the rich. Here are some of their words of wisdom:

When House Appropriations Defense Member Rep. Betty McCollum (D-MN) demanded to know the cost of Trump's deployment of the National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth refused to answer and intentionally wasted time to deflect.

What country is this?

The Gulf Coast is not a sacrifice zone! FERC just reauthorized the CP2 methane gas terminal. "I would say that if you insure CP2 you are insuring the death of my children and my community. We are already suffering...We can’t take anymore” – @roishetta.bsky.social truthout.org/articles/gul...

"The institution that really could constrain the president is Congress." Please laugh.

So, the 7th of our 9 planetary boundaries was shattered 5 YEARS AGO. Multiple timebombs ticking loudly, but our ‘leaders’ are frantically stuffing fossil fuel & corporate donations in their ears.

Hey pundits, if you're arguing that it's the protesters fault that Donald Trump is illegally calling out US troops to counter public protests, The Onion is mocking you. Deservedly. theonion.com/protesters-u...
