The live streamer I’m watching got shot by a rubberbullet. He says they’re shooting everyone, even press like CNN and FOX News. I haven’t seen footage of that, but have seen a lot of folks showing terrible welts.

Will probably replace the whole vaccine panel with Joni Ernst 🙄

I'm watching live footage in LA from SnaXoG on Youtube and I gotta say ever since the George Floyd protests, I am suspicious of white guys with umbrellas. Remember that? www.youtube.com/live/JcQs5cB...

Great feed with only 11 watching right now. I think this is at City Hall in LA, but if you know better, please correct me. www.youtube.com/live/JcQs5cB...

If you come to my home with a mask on and refuse to identify yourself with name and badge number - welcome to Stand Your Ground Laws. As a non white woman living in the South - I won’t take any risks. You can buy ICE and Police patches on Amazon and Etsy.

Arrrrrgh!!!! (But in no way surprised)😡😡😡😡😡 Explore this gift article from The New York Times. You can read it for free without a subscription. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/h...

State troops sent to Los Angeles by the Trump administration, without the approval of California Gov. Gavin Newsom, were expected to sleep on floors or outdoors, a source told the Chronicle.

Massive ICE raids right now in Anaheim, La Mirada, Santa Ana, Bell Gardens, and Cathedral City, out near Palm Springs. So many videos can't even keep up with them. Would take all day and night to download and post. Just stay safe, everyone. ICE is all over Southern California.

The situation in DTLA to which 700 Marines have been deployed is a couple dozen interfaith clergypersons leading a small crowd in prayer.

BREAKING: Trump is deploying 500 Marines to LA

@jesscraven101.bsky.social is in downtown LA at 2:20 PM on June 9. She just heard that the felon is sending in the Marines. They are literally listening to mariachi music and dancing. There is no crisis No violence. Kids. Dogs. Families. People in red states you are being lied to. #NoKings

Trump’s federalization of the CA National Guard under 10 USC § 12406 is illegal. The law requires that orders be issued “through the Governors of the States.” Gov Gavin Newsom has not issued the orders. Guard troops in LA are following unlawful orders. law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10…

I can hear the sirens coming down FWY 10. Trump has just deployed the Marines to Los Angeles. I hope this is the end of him and that good people do the right things in this moment. Turning the military against our entire city is beyond. Don’t let his attempt at martial law in CA be the playbook.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

If you're a Marine or other service member being mobilized to Los Angeles and you'd like to apply for conscientious objector status, call the GI Rights Hotline to get some guidance on your options: 1-877-447-4487

The marines are coming to Los Angeles .may they keep their oath to the constitution and not to the fascists trying to destroy democracy .

Infuriating And now 700 Marines Trump calling for the arrest of Gavin Newsom Protesters please stay safe Please be careful This is OCCUPATION

There is an estimate that only 300 of the 2,000 National Guard Trump wanted to go to LA actually went to LA. Some guard members stated they intentionally let the federal calls go to voicemail.

700 Marines are being deployed in LA. Is that even legal? abc11.com/post/700-mar...

Are you going to a No Kings! protest on Saturday? If so, where? I will be going to Raleigh. I'd hoped to go to DC but I couldn't find anyone renting a bus. We must intimidate this man out of trying to intimidate US! We must show up and show out!

ICE has started raids in and around Raleigh (Garner, Fuquay-Varina). It is time to stand up and show there are more of us than there are of them!

6 days until the Next Day of National Protest : Flag Day 🇺🇸 #NoKings ⭐️ At Raleigh our Capital - and throughout ALL North Carolina Spread the word! repost and see the map at: www.nokings.org #HandsOff #June14th #FlagDay #Protest #50501NC #NC #NorthCarolina #FiftyFiftyOne

Yesterday, a 23-year-old man was detained at a Greensboro laundromat after being warned of ICE activity at Guilford County Courthouse, taking him from his pregnant fiancee. Today, faith leaders joined us to say courthouse ICE activity and family separation does not make our communities any safer.

🚨 END ICE RAIDS NOW 2PM today (Monday, June 9) Moore Square 201 S Blount St Raleigh, NC

📢: Call to Action Tomorrow! We stand with #USSW and #USWW and demand the immediate release of American citizen David Huerta. Let's be clear: Americans will defend our First Amendment right to protest. 🗓️ Mon June 9th 🕓 2pm 📍Moores Square 200 S Blount St #Raleigh, #NC 27601

At immigration court in Chicago this morning. Per reporter inside who was told he can't use his phone, at least three people have been detained by ICE this morning after their hearings; two men and one woman. Two black SUVs with plainclothes agents inside have arrived, presumably for transport.

Trump is trying to destroy blue states. You know—the ones that subsidize the red ones

"The former daytime talk show host was also embedded with ICE officials in Chicago back in January, when some federal agents were told to be camera-ready for a show of force at the very start of President Trump’s second term." so Dr Phil ridealongs for tv are just a thing? seconding Anna's what???

I’m all for it

"ThEyRe FlYiNg MeXiCaN FlAgS In ThE StREeTs" Give me a break Police were beat with American flags on January 6th Ohh not to mention the confederate flag being waved in the rotunda

#ICEprotest #Austin #ATX #AustinProtest #HandsOffTexas #50501Texas Be there, y’all! 🤘

This stuff doesn’t look very protect-and-serve-y

We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

Hidden stuff in "everybody's going to die bill" is as bad as its gutting of our healthcare. Please keep pressuring Senators & Reps. #StopTheBillionaireBailoutBill @resistBot 5calls.org #NoKings #demsUnited #usDemocracy #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 Gifted: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/o...

Whats happened in LA over the weekend is pathetic. Once again we see the commander in chief agitating and escalating shit. On another note, it doesn't seem like dems were "overreacting" when we said the fate of democracy depends on this election.

I’m sorry, what??? www.cnn.com/2025/06/09/m...

This administration needs to stop targeting international reporters, they’re the ones helping spread the truth. In multiple videos, officers are seen aiming directly at them, fully aware they’re members of the press. These so-called “non-lethal” rounds can absolutely be lethal.

Donald Trump has become convinced that Republicans cannot win the midterms, and that a blue wave would effectively end his presidency and confront him with two years of investigations and impeachment proceedings. He needs martial law as an excuse to cancel the midterms. So America is on a clock now.
