Given this administration’s willingness to assert crazy emergency powers, the threat to SpaceX is real.

Thank god we have rid ourselves of these cruel men from our parliament, at least for now. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

In Manhattan, ICE officers were forced to flee inside 26 Federal Plaza

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.

Do Americans really understand the critical situation we are in? We are about to cross another red line unless Trump is stopped!

MAGA is a hypocritical fascist movement!

Trump, who historically hasn’t hesitated to fire off deeply personal, blistering posts about others who have insulted him, was more muted regarding Musk than friends and advisers expected. In the aftermath of his faceoff with Musk, he urged those around him not to pour gasoline on the fire.🤔

They’re not behaving as if they’re in a four-year term. They’re behaving as if they’re in an everlasting dictatorship. Are we all clear on this?

“They don’t regard any political opposition as legitimate,” he replied. “Their view is that they need to destroy these institutions or bring them under strict political control,..... ...because they don’t want anyone producing empirical knowledge that might be used to foster political opposition.”

My biggest respect to Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell who has just released a new statement informing the LA citizens that his officers will not assist nor corporate with ICE.

LA Strong 💪🏽

As of June 2024, there have been 8,456 reported rapes in Florida this year. According to the Department of Justice, only 310 out of every 1,000 sexual assaults are reported to the police. These rape victims will be forced to carry their rapist babies to term. The GOP owns this abomination... #Vote

Very Well Said…..😊💙

Maddow: I think we both have the same instinct: quote the ruling, quote the deposition—show the document. The audience is smart and capable of taking in primary source material. We can give it to them straight and then talk about it from there—based on this kind of non-pasteurized document

Dear journalists. When the US President is openly accused of paedophilia the story is either impeachment or defamation. If not, the story is how words have lost all meaning, truth has lost all value, and journalists are now completely desensitised to lying and corruption.

A former D.C. police lieutenant convicted of leaking information about a police investigation to the leader of the Proud Boys group on the eve of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, was sentenced Friday to 18 months behind bars.

Pam! Wiggle your eyebrows! I dare you!

I really am livid that the rogue Supreme Court has made a decision to allow my height, weight, and social security number to be unsecured information.

MAGA extremists are falling for white Christian nationalist ideas, a severe danger to our democratic freedoms. Strengthen constitutional separation of church & state. Oppose radical right-wing authoritarian Project 2025.

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

Good grief! Another judge has to stop Trump’s BS executive order against Harvard (again). youtube.com/watch?v=xJnK...

So many pundits say that the US was primed for someone like the Shigibbon, a sleazy narcissistic grifter to lead it in a new direction once the courts were seeded and his guardrails were removed. Well here we are the envy of the world no longer, just an embarrassment to Justice and morality. #Resist

ICE raids hit across Los Angeles today—and locals are rising up. This is what resistance looks like. ✊🏾 This was about an hour ago…

'Desist': Dept run by DeSantis orders reporter to stop probing wife's charity www.rawstory.com/hope-florida...

This is really sad. They use the same crap over & over again.

What we witnessed yesterday was a perfect example of white [male] privilege. There is no way that kind of behavior would be acceptable had it been Obama or Kamala [or Hillary]…

The election was so bloody rigged a ten year old would know. Moron Trump couldn’t have possibly won. He couldn’t keep people at his rallies. The assassination was staged people don’t want to believe that either both of which were easy to carry off because people don’t want to believe otherwise.

But this would require recipients working full time for an employer who actually offers healthcare benefits. So the plan will kick millions off of ALL healthcare.

Trump trying to distract America with plans for a new $100,000,000 White House BALLROOM While he STRIPS AWAY health care, food assistance, veterans benefits, Meals on Wheels and basic human rights from MILLIONS OF AMERICANS And saddles US with another $2,400,000,000 worth of debt
