A rule of thumb that will rarely lead you astray in this country is to assume that a riot was started by the people who showed up armed and dressed for a riot.

Three things about this comment: 1. Homan is a White House adviser who doesn't have the power to arrest anyone. Neither does Trump. 2. Trump once again acts like he's not in charge. "If I were Tom, I'd do it." Uh, doesn't he work for you? 3. THREATENING TO ARREST A GOVERNOR IS A FIVE ALARM FIRE

"Nobody’s going to spit on our police officers," says Trump, who four months ago pardoned people who beat police officers with pipes, flagpoles, baseball bats and 2-by-4s at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

Just when the LAPD said everything was peaceful, they were never talking about themselves.

Millions of conservatives believe that most US cities literally burned to the ground five years ago and there’s no convincing them otherwise, because they’ll never go visit.

Today, WH Border Czar Homan said California's Governor and LA Mayor Bass could be arrested if they interfered with ICE. This, after the arrest of a NJ Congresswoman & a Wisconsin Judge. This isn't what democracy is supposed to look like. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

What's happening tonight is anything but law and order. Don't be deceived.

I bet it'd be easier for Americans to see ICE agents as just regular folks if they weren't, you know, wearing black masks and hiding their names and identities from the public out of shame.

let me get this straight, I pay for them out of my taxes. but they don't have to protect me or my property if they decide not to. but i do have to accept any form of violence they use against me, without resisting or i go to jail. why the fuck do we even have police? they are less than useless

Federal employees can and should be allowed to critique the government they work for without fearing for their jobs.

Republicans are redirecting a big chunk of the already earmarked $42.5 billion in infrastructure bill broadband grants to Elon Musk's slower, shittier Starlink satellite service, a move that could delay these deployments by years

This needs to happen in every neighborhood in America

UnitedHealth secretly pressured nurses to change patients' records to include DNRs (Do Not Resuscitate) without their consent, so those patients would die instead of being saved with medical interventions that could cost UnitedHealth money. This is murder. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

ProPublica reports that the U.S. knew most Venezuelan immigrants sent to CECOT had been convicted of no U.S. crimes before it labeled them terrorists/deported them. I wrote about this crisis – and why we're hosting a June 11 conversation with @andreapitzer.bsky.social and Erica Chenoweth on this.
