Karen Bass: "The 100 National Guard soldiers that are downtown LA are guarding one federal building, so there is no need for this...it's all part of an experiment that is taking place in Los Angeles...what happens when the federal government intervenes and takes power away from a governor & mayor?"

This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊

Did Elon Musk use Trump’s tariffs as leverage to make more and more money for himself?   I called for an investigation, because while Elon is cashing in, everyone else is paying for this chaos. We all deserve answers.

“I was hungry” and you cut SNAP. “I was thirsty” and you cut funding to ensure clean water. “I was sick” and you cut medicaid. “I was a stranger” and you deported me. “I was in prison” and you just left me there to rot. “Whatever you do to the least of these, you do unto me.”-Jesus

Today May 15th is Peace Officers Memorial Day. Statements like this are inflammatory, disrespectful and flat out lies. Not only did you betray law enforcement, but you sided with people who attacked us. You don't support law enforcement, you are are a criminal.

GET UP, STAND UP

I am outraged by the unjust arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka earlier this afternoon outside of Delaney Hall in Newark. I am calling for his immediate release by federal law enforcement.

Please spread the correct information about Mayor Baraka's arrest. He had apparently been trying for a few days to visit the ICE prison and was rebuffed. Then the members of Congress tried to visit today and were made to wait in the waiting area for 90 minutes. Then 20 ICE Gestapo showed up...

We Catholics believe a conclave is a sacred process in which the Holy Spirit helps guide the Cardinals. Lindsey Graham mocked our faith by suggesting a non-Catholic whose views our Church has repeatedly condemned & even gave him a mock Papal name. Graham is a non-Catholic who is mocking our faith.

When you force people to foreign incarceration for the rest of their life without due process... that's not deportation. That's human trafficking. And it's not a prison. It's a concentration camp.

This "WHO'S NEVER COMING BACK" document published by the White House should be "EXHIBIT A" in any forthcoming hearing where a judge/justice has asked the White House to prove how it is "facilitating" the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Mohsen Mahdawi of White River Junction, Vermont was illegally detained by ICE during what was supposed to be the final step in his citizenship process. Mr. Mahdawi, a legal resident of the US, must be afforded due process under the law and immediately released from detention.

This was the first time my earthquake warning alarm went off, about 15 seconds before I heard and felt it. Pretty quick shake here. Says it was a 5.1 near Julian, Ca. #Earthquake

Trying not to get sent to the cornfield. (You did good, sir you did real good)

This is why we say we live in a Police State. “When the range of factors that can get a person arrested stretches from political speech to a paperwork error, we are in territory described by the Russian saying, 'Give us a person and we’ll find the infraction.'" -M. Gessen

It’s exactly market manipulation.

The Trump administration is committing crimes against humanity right before our eyes. They are disappearing people who are in this country legally and sending them to El Salvadoran prison camps to be tortured. Every official involved deserves nothing less than to be tried at The Hague.
