In the midst of all this distraction let’s not forget that Trump is all over the Epstein files and Elon has implied he helped steal the 2024 election

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem. Right fucking now.

A U.S. senator being physically removed for saying “I have a question” isn’t just a bad look. It’s authoritarian energy. You don’t lay hands on oversight. You answer to it and everyone should be paying attention to how they won’t.

This is very good and very timely, because at least now if your home is wrongfully raided by ICE, you can sue the US government. Not that it'll be quick, but it's something. Unanimous opinion 9:0. www.npr.org/2025/06/12/n...

i've been trying to see what the right wing platforms (even outside of X) are showing people regarding the protests in LA and i am not sure it can be overstated just how much the AI slop is being used to reinforce the idea that downtown is a post-apocalyptic war zone

How can people be detained by a US soldier to be arrested later by a LEO? How will the arresting officers know what the charges are? How will they know there was probable cause? How will they prosecute cases - will soldiers become witnesses in civilian criminal trials? youtu.be/d-5ey0KwYkU?...

Imagine if every person going to a protest this weekend also took five minutes to email and call their Representative about impeachment. What would Congress feel? They would be *overwhelmed.* Shock and awe. Here is how to make it happen: citizensimpeachment.com/advocate-for...

Cary López Alvarado, a US citizen, “lost her balance as agents ‘shoved her’ during her arrest over the weekend, she tearfully told NBC Los Angeles on Mon. from a hospital bed.” "With just one week left before her due date, her doctors said they are monitoring López Alvarado as well as her baby …”

ICE seemingly confirms they are using National Guard as security to conduct immigration raids. Let's call this what it is, militarized ethnic cleansing.

Absolute fucking 🔥. "Over eight hours...people throwing back tear gas...throwing anything that they could to defend themselves...Border Patrol retreated. “And the hundreds of workers in the factories were able to escape. If any community was going to fight back without apology, it was this one."
