Let’s go unions

ICE forced to barricade themselves inside the federal building in Los Angeles until LAPD could intervene and rescue them from the brave crowds standing up to the regime.

LAPD COLLABORATING WITH ICE 🚨 This is outside Ambiance Factory on E. 15th and S. Santa Fe Ave. ANOTHER clear example of the LAPD & the City of Los Angeles collaborating with ICE & proving that the "Sanctuary City" was always bullshit! @mayor.lacity.gov’s silence is support of this.

A protest against the detainments of immigrants at 930 e towne in LA beginning to escalate. Detainees are being filed into trucks. Large protest is here. Tear gas has been deployed. More to come.

DHS FIRING ON US FOR A MINUTE STRAIGHT OUTSIDE THE DETENTION CENTER. Please watch and share. EYES ON LA! FUCK ICE!

I can only imagine what Musk must feel like, having his federal funding for critical work ripped away by someone who doesn't even really understand what he does.

something something party of limited government

The real, ideological enemy isn't MAGA or ICE or Israel or Russia or etc etc etc. It's dehumanization. It's the idea that some groups of people do not deserve human rights and must be purged Anyone who follows these assholes into that cesspit has already lost

Veronika Cohen, 80, Holocaust survivor: “I don’t think we can remember our suffering without acknowledging the suffering of Gaza, the deaths of tens of thousands of children, the starvation that’s going on this minute, for which we are partially responsible. It occupies the same place in my heart.”

this is the most sociopathic thing ive ever seen and i wrote a whole book about neonazis

Pete Hegseth’s Defense Department tried to bar a CNN journalist from serving as a pool reporter for an upcoming foreign trip. Other reporters threatened to boycott the trip. Guess what happened next. The Pentagon caved. Via @oliverdarcy.bsky.social www.status.news/p/pete-hegse...

NEW -- Yes, there absolutely was media malfeasance in our coverage of the 2024 presidential campaign. No, it wasn't about Joe Biden being old. It was about how we normalized the hell out of a man who had already tried to end American democracy once. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

WATCH: “Trump misrepresented the facts. This is not even in South Africa.” @france24 does the fact-check on Trump’s Oval Office “White Genocide” Oval Office ambush 🇺🇸 networks haven’t. Lies, outdated footage, etc. Full: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mti6...

Dude. Show me the body. We learned this in 11th grade history.

By the way, Stage 9 cancer is just Stage 4 with a 145% tariff.

You know you’re winning when you post “We are NOT the Gestapo!”

It's remarkable how much of this administration's agenda has been laser focused on simply making life worse for ordinary Americans.

In what might be the logical endpoint of American Zionism, the Heritage Foundation has declared that pro-Palestinian activism is not just antisemitic, but is in fact a shadowy global conspiracy … led by Jews. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/18/u...

Great idea from @cherijacobus.bsky.social.

GOLDMAN: Will you give Abrego Garcia the due process the Supreme Court has required you to give him? NOEM: If he were to come back to this country, he would be immediately removed again G: How do you know? The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he hasn't been treated appropriately

TODAY the NYT publishes an investigation into the Trump memecoin $TRUMP and how it has turned into a extraordinary venue for foreign influence campaigns. What we are seeing is potentially corrupt attempts to change US policy by paying the Trump family money. This is no "Russian Hoax" nyti.ms/4kkv7D7

Just hit me that the importing of white folks from South Africa and exporting of brown people is actually, literally an attempt at a great replacement

If your MAGA relatives try to justify the Qatar plane gift by bringing up the Statue of Liberty, remind them Congress voted to approve that gift, and we’d be happy to have Congress vote on the plane, too!

BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts. Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

If I were a member of Congress I would have already introduced a bill prohibiting ICE agents from wearing face masks and requiring them to wear official identification at all times

Only Congress has this power. Sorry, Peewee German.

The way we were treated at Delaney Hall is almost unbelievable. ICE shoved me, manhandled @repbonnie.bsky.social, and arrested Mayor Baraka. They disrespected us and tried to stop us from conducting the oversight we’re elected to do. But we’ll never back down in our fight for what is right.

Stephen Miller says they are “actively looking at” suspending the writ of habeas corpus, which is only allowed when the US has been invaded or during an insurrection, which would not allow people to challenge their incarceration in court if they are arrested and detained.

"Siri, what does an American secret police look like?"

Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested Friday at an ICE Detention Center where he was protesting its opening.

Our developmental pediatric clinic has already had multiple families cancel appointments for autism evaluations due to fears of their children ending up in this database. 😞

Every administration official should be grilled like this, every time. Think like you're creating a record for future Nuremberg Trials. youtu.be/EwZWCk1ytPU?...
