The joke of the weekend is going to be a man who was so scared that he had his daddy keep him from having to fight in a war...and is now having a military parade to try and convince people that he is brave. #BoneSpurs

"Mobilizing military forces into cities is going to be seen as an overreach, and it's going to be now met with peaceful, boisterous moms, dads, grandmas. kids and their dogs and families showing up, saying, 'we're not going to put up with this authoritarianism..." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Governor Gavin Newsom’s office having lunch. What do you see? 😅😂🤣 🌮🌮🌮 LMAO 😅😂🤣

But what happens when Trump refuses to follow court orders-again?

“OMG they’re rioting in L.A.!!” Meanwhile, in the beautiful landscape that is Nuestra Señora de Los Angeles. 💙

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.”

The L.A. protesters have really gone too far this time… 🌼

ICYMI — “LIE!!” Dems heckled Speaker Johnson as he tried to put all the blame on Senator Padilla

Always great to see and stand up for democracy with @governor.ny.gov and @governorwalz.mn.gov.

Heckuva line in the riveting account of Pentagon disarray published by NY Mag today (and presumably written days or weeks ago) ... nymag.com/intelligence...

Comer's committee is now going to investigate Gavin Newsom and Karin Bass. He accused Newsom and Bass of protesting Trump's "action to quell the violence caused by the rioters in Los Angeles, even resorting to falsely blaming him for the actions of violent rioters." www.rawstory.com/james-comer-...

U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX): "I know that there’s been some conversations about what’s going on in L.A., and they want to say that it’s riots because they didn’t want people to keep talking about, say, the Epstein files..."

"It suggests that the people who voted for the bill don't want the American people protected and don't want them to access their courts." - @skyeperryman.bsky.social

BREAKING: California Governor Gavin Newsom speaks out on the forcible removal of Senator Alex Padilla from a DHS press conference. "I thought it was a disgrace."

Newsom: "This is what he does. He creates a problem and then he tries to be a hero in his own Marvel movie ... he initiated those raids. He significantly increased the scale and scope of those raids. That's why he wants the National Guard."

Sen. Luján on Sen. Padilla being manhandled and handcuffed at Noem’s press conference: “This is nonsense…The executive branch is doing this to our colleagues…Will someone here have the backbone to tell the president of the United States, ‘You crossed the line.’”

Rep. Ryan: "At Fort Bragg 2 days ago...soldiers who have political views that are in opposition to the current administration were told to speak with their leadership & get swapped out of the event...Is that appropriate?" Gen. Caine: "The nation demands a nonpartisan military."

This Saturday, 6/14, bring your “nonviolent, good cheer, I-could-do-this-forever kind of spirit” to one of the 1,800 rallies planned across the country—NONE of which are in DC (important!). #NoKings in America! Find an event near you👇 social.demcast.com/s/TpnaTzvG 🚨Read🧵for important tips ⬇️.

Newsom: "He's been a stone cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what he actually talked about. It would send shivers up your spine."

So THAT'S how she got Ga's Hispanic vote!

U.S. REP. LAUREN BOEBERT (R-CO): "What we're seeing in L.A. is an insurrection." J.B. PRITZKER (D): "That is an insurrection? You don’t know understand what insurrection is when you're trying to overturn an election here at the Congress ..."

Our corporate-owned food system is decimating ecosystems & driving insects to extinction. But without insects we have no food system. We urgently take food out of the hands of multinationals, we change what we eat & how we produce it. Or we watch a planet starve.

"We don't need to be in Normandy to defend our democracy in 2025. We need to be in these halls, in the courts, and in communities across the country." - @skyeperryman.bsky.social

Let’s not forget that Alex Padilla is the first ever Latino to represent California in the United States Senate.

Sen. Alex Padilla forcibly removed for asking DHS Sec. Kristi Noem a question in LA. Make no mistake. This is Fascism.

Trump in 2011: "Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He's weak and he's ineffective..." This video aged well because it reminds us that Trump has always done Nazi 101 and accused his opponents of what he actually does.

In Spokane, WA protesters begin to build their own skirmish line against officers after one appears to push a woman down.

This is what she was saying right as Sen. Padilla interrupted with a question. As he should have!
