Sorry you're here to do what

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.

Crockett: I know that there’s been some conversations about what’s going on in LA and they want to say that it’s riots because they didn’t want people to keep talking about the Epstein files

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced Tuesday that she signed an executive order seeking greater transparency from federal immigration officials. She said the city will submit regular Freedom of Information Act requests to find out who ICE is detaining and on what grounds.

Rewording my earlier post. RFK Jr will be testifying before Congress. I am interested in what experts and others think would be the best way to leverage this time and opportunity for the public good. If you were behind the dais for this hearing, what would you do? What do you want to see asked?

IMPORTANT: Stop calling the troops in LA National Guard Troops. They are not. When Trump activated them against the wishes of the Gov they became FEDERAL troops… like the 82nd airborne with no Law enforcement power! Don’t let them confuse you!

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

Kristi Noem calls Los Angeles a “city of criminals” “They are not city of immigrants, they are a city of criminals”

this is good

Look for reports from people who live there, not main stream media.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

Please read all parts. They declared martial law without having to use the term. they just used bureaucratic language & vague “protective” justifications to the same end. Part 1/5

Are Trump's actions in LA a distraction? @gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "A hundred percent. It's all about news cycles. Whatever he can to distract. I mean, disastrous economic policies... Even his his biggest sycophant in the country, Elon Musk, said likely a recession in the second half of the year."

Newsom: "Arrest me. Let's just get it over with, tough guy. I don't give a damn ... Tom, arrest me. Let's go."

Rep. Gomez: LA County alone is 34% foreign born, 34%. So when he says they're going to liberate us, who is he going to liberate us from? Ourselves?

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

BREAKING: Kamala Harris issues statement on Los Angeles.

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

My dad, who has lived under a dictatorship, knows one when he sees one. His first text this morning is that we are now officially in a dictatorship. It is all pretty grim.

Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."

Ok but Elon is still a bad guy... Just a reminder; we knew the Bill was bad before he said anything.

I told my sisters... If you want to know what these guys are like behind closed doors... Check and see what the name of their Gamertags on different games... The names I see on EA Sports and other games are horrible and I can't believe people think it's ok and/or funny

They don’t have the right to dictate my life.

Hate is on the rise—and it’s showing up in ways that should alarm every single one of us. We’re seeing violent attacks targeting people for who they are, what they believe, or how they choose to live. That’s unacceptable. (1/2)

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

To make it clear for folks who've never thought about what a $2000 asset test does to people on Medicaid/SNAP: 🔹️It keeps them in the lowest paying jobs 🔹️It creates access barriers to work. (In many places, how are you going to get there, when you're not allowed to save for a car? I knew... 🧵1/5

I'm sick of this administration saying"They were joking." .... This shit is too serious to be joking about! 😡

People so often overlook the importance of good penmanship.

He nailed it!

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

Not today, Satan.

A viral post is spreading fear on all platforms, supposedly from Liz and Me, about a nonexistent bill—just like the far right used to do. We cannot become what we’re fighting. The truth still matters. We win by being better, not louder. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/dont-fight...

#ProudBlue Bravo! 👏 More of this, please.

She is an American citizen, the daughter of a U.S. Navy service member from Illinois, who was stationed in the Philippines during the Vietnam War. This is fascism, plain and simple.
