CA Gov: Do not deploy National Guard in LA CA AG: Do not deploy National Guard in LA LAPD: Do not deploy National Guard in LA Trump: I have no choice but to deploy National Guard in LA Trump incites violence. Reject his illegal orders. Uphold the US Constitution—not loyalty to a draft dodger felon.

Donald Trump incited a violent mob to attack the Capitol. Hundreds of dangerous felons who brutally beat police officers with impunity were then pardoned by the President on his first day in office. Don’t ever lecture America about law and order.

Donald Trump’s deployment of the military in Los Angeles over the objection of California leaders is an abuse of power and a dangerous escalation. It’s what you would see in authoritarian states and it must stop. Americans have the right to speak out and peacefully protest.

I lost touch with popular public opinion some time ago, but I’m still inclined to believe that deploying the Marines to California to reinforce 2,000 national guard troops who are going there to reinforce ICE who is there to kidnap random people at Home Depots might be unpopular.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

The wheels came off the Musk and Trump bromance so fast you’d think it was a cyber truck

#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited No matter now much I want to scream, “I told you so” in order to vindicate our warnings, I know we must do whatever we can to get those “others” to join us. Not really talking about the cult members, but the independents & those who are starting to see the light.

Just wait until we get to the point where we can fondly look back and say “Remember when he used to take small bribes? Like a 400 million dollar plane from the violent royal family of a country that he was building a 5.5 billion dollar golf course in? Those were the days. Simpler times.”

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

Oh hey look, the worst person you know just made a good point

HAPPENING NOW: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was just taken into custody while protesting outside the Delaney Hall ICE detention center

It takes a special kind of stupid to take a growing economy and throw it into reverse.

“I never thought the leopards would eat MY judiciary.”

The idea that Democrats need to be more moderate/centrist because that’s what the American people want falls apart with one simple rebuttal: Trump was elected President, twice. The American people chose an extremist OVER a moderate. Twice. The American people want PASSION, not centrism.

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this? Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..

Dictator shit

The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought: - 1.65 million deaths from AIDS - 500,000 from lack of vaccines - 550,000 from lack of food aid - 290,000 from malaria - 310,000 from TB

NEWS: After an emergency meeting of Indivisible groups across the country, Indivisible is officially calling on Senate Minority Leader Schumer to step down from his leadership position. indivisible.org/statements/i...

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

If there were ever a chance for AOC to primary Schumer, this is it.

Here’s the thing, you’re actually under-reacting

Try to change your perspective so that you disagree with an IDEA instead of disagreeing with a PERSON. People can change their ideas.

“Hope is not the absence of despair, it is the ability to come back to our purpose again and again.” -Alicia Garza

These are not normal times. The Democratic Party needs to act like they believe what they were saying 6 months ago about this situation

I’ll take “Things that won’t happen for $2,000”

never forget that Al Green introduced articles of impeachment literally YEARS before the rest of the dems took it seriously. one of the only people in congress with a spine, and you can tell what leadership thinks about it from how they treat him

Every Jurassic Park sequel has some people who are saying “Hey let’s not try this again, remember the dinosaurs got loose last time?” And some others who are all “Well maybe the dinosaurs won’t break out and go on murderous rampages THIS time.” This post is not about dinosaurs.

Great example of an effective politician!

May more people come to continue realizing it

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

A drug dealer with 4 guns A man with a prior criminal history who used a bomb against the police-and also illegally had guns These are the people who stormed the Capitol that Donald Trump pardoned

Things may be terrible now, but at least it’s not as bad as it will be soon.

I hate it when bad people make good points

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Daaaaaamn

“The only people who complain about others being educated about their rights are those who plan to violate them” damn that’s good

They haven’t found enough people to deport, because the “crisis” is made up. So now they’ll just attack AOC instead.

'Fight these cowards': AOC launches counterattack on Trump border czar's threats: U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Monday dared Trump immigration czar Tom Homan to pursue an investigation against her after he attacked the New York Democrat in two television appearances and said he has asked…

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.
