BORDER PATROL: “Are you an 🇺🇸 citizen?” 🔥 NATIVE AMERICAN WOMAN: “FIRST ONES. We didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us… what are you? You’re not first born. You’re not from this f*ckin’ land. Punk-as* b*tches.”

Minnesota cops are warning people not to attend the local No Kings parade after the targeted shootings of Dem lawmakers Parade organizers: Come anyway. www.startribune.com/brooklyn-par...

BREAKING NEWS: a federal judge blocked the Administration’s attempt to illegally fire three Consumer Product Safety Commissioners. Whether it’s baby products or swimming pools, the Consumer Product Safety Commission keeps people safe. This ruling is a win for all consumers.

Yes, just imagine.

It's mind-blowing how little attention this extraordinary statement has received. It's briefly mentioned in a couple news articles, but this MSNBC opinion piece is the only extended discussion of it I've seen: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Pete Hegseth was different after Signalgate, according to six people in a position to know. He was more prone to anger and less likely to be clean-shaven in the morning. He seemed reluctant to make decisions; scared of doing the wrong thing, paralyzed as he awaited orders from the White House.

$134 million that should be going to LA’s fire recovery. Shameful.

Here’s what it was like in Downtown LA today. (Spoiler alert: Trump is lying to you) youtu.be/to9wEgUCIpQ

This is an ominous step toward martial law. The time for mobilizing peacefully but massively against this dangerous progression is NOW. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/07/u...

Inflaming and provoking violence and division and threatening to deploy military resources against your own people is not a show of strength — it’s abuse of power and a sign of leadership without a moral compass or regard for the law. We are a democracy. We stand strong. You cannot intimidate us.

Is this just kind of like repeat it until you believe it yourself? Your boss pardoned everyone who assaulted law enforcement on January 6th. Ass!!!

“If you wonder whether Medicaid is important in Iowa… more than 600,000 Iowans are enrolled in Medicaid. That’s almost 20 percent of the state, including 2 in 5 children. 50 percent of nursing home residents receive Medicaid. So… the funding is life or death for many,” Sen. Ernst. -Dan Rather

Bare minimum requirement for the leader of FEMA: know when hurricane season is. www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

The mainstream media thinks that we’ve accepted the Trump regime’s lawlessness and cruelty. We absolutely fucking have not. Join me at a No King’s protest on June 14. Everything is at stake. ❌👑 Nokings.org

What this does, as DHS is well aware, is prevent people engaging with actual service workers and makes their lives harder. It also means utility workers will face hostility and might come to resent migrant communities and activists, which again is probably seen as desirable.

Experts inside and outside the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have been left stunned and puzzled by the decimation of a nearly 80-year-old agency that has been a global leader in public health. Learn how decimating the CDC will cost many lives in the US and abroad. #MedSky

Trump defends his wave of pardons by alleging a "weaponized Department of Justice" was out-of-control Former prosecutors note: The prosecutions of the pardoned Jan 6 rioters were launched...... during the final weeks of the first Trump Administration

Ohio State has over three thousand at the moment, representing around 6% of the student body. Congrats to all the American families who will get to pick up the tab now.

Hey America. You need to know something: This level of corruption IS NOT NORMAL. Don’t ever believe that it is.

Granted humanitarian permission to enter the U.S. from Mexico in 2023, the 4-year-old child is receiving treatment for a rare bowel condition. But last month, the family received a notice telling them to leave the country. trib.al/KWSEUyA

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

The Congressional Republicans’ bill takes away health care and makes it harder to afford groceries, all to give massive tax breaks to the wealthiest Americans. It’s not a big, beautiful bill. It’s a big betrayal of the middle class.

Democrats in Congress: Investigate and expose why ICE is allowed to operate in masks and conceal their identities. There is no acceptable scenario where this should be permitted. @HouseDemocrats @SenateDems

You know that video that Trump showed today purporting to be a mass "burial site" of white farmers? Well, Elon tweeted it out last week -- and it's actually footage from a memorial procession five years ago after two people were killed in an armed robbery. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

This is what I try to live up to, every day of my life

“Trump wants you to think opposing him is futile. It’s not. His greatest fear is free and fair elections — and that’s exactly where we have power,” @marcelias.bsky.social writes. Here’s how you can take action:

I requested my great grandfather’s alien enemy file from the National Records Archive. 300ish pages arrived in parts. Some is just paperwork- immigration forms, the alien enemy questionnaire, etc. Parts feel too personal to share here- letters from his young daughters, pleading for his release.

Scenes are repeating across the United States, passersby and local residents confront & resist Trump's ICE regime troops as they’re spotted kidnapping their neighbours. The regime continues its campaign of ethnic cleansing, appearing at homes and businesses masked and without warrants. #3E #StopICE

“The notion that I or any of my colleagues ‘body slammed’ armed federal officers is absurd. DHS is lying because they know their agents were out of line.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

The GOP’s reconciliation bill is one of the worst environmental bills I’ve ever seen. It guts public input, silences tribal and community voices, slashes environmental protections, and hands sacred and public lands to the lowest bidder with no accountability.

Holy shiitake! Trump fired Shira Perlmutter, the Director of the US Copyrights Office apparently because she refused to let Elon Musk raid the place to steal author’s intellectual property rights democrats-cha.house.gov/media/press-...

🧵 Martin Diaz came to the U.S. as a toddler, fleeing cartel violence with his family. They had proof of the danger—a letter from a Michoacán official. He married a U.S. citizen & was advancing his visa. Then ICE showed up at his home in Spokane: no warrant, no ID #OnYourSide VC pslspokane

"Somebody needs to stop ICE!" "Somebody needs to stop Trump!" You are the "somebody." The cavalry is not coming. We will not be saved by a knight in shining armor. It's you. So do something

A group of Quakers are marching more than 300 miles to demonstrate against the Trump administration's crackdown on immigrants. Organizers of the march say their protest seeks to show solidarity with migrants and other groups that are being targeted by the administration.

I’ve see this screenshot of the article circulating and while definitely the scenario is not good, one of the “children” was 19, so in fact not a child. He couldn’t drive so they waited there for another family member to come pick them up (and deal with the truck).

In the 1970s, Marge Goldberg built something lasting, co-founding with Paula Goldberg PACER, a national model for helping families of children with disabilities. Her impact on disability rights and education is an inspiration and will never be forgotten. www.startribune.com/marge-goldbe...

The Trump family’s cryptocurrency business just got a $2B investment from a firm backed by the United Arab Emirates government. With this deal, they will be enriched beyond most people’s comprehension—and they have the UAE government to thank for it.

Unfortunately History repeats

“There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.” This is the energy I am trying to encourage people to cultivate instead of “they’ll arrest you next.”

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care? There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

Trump’s Already Lost. “You simply cannot impose an autocracy if a clear majority of the country opposes what you are trying to do at the outset, when you are trying to do it.” (Not sure I buy this? But I’d like to?) [talkingpointsmemo.com]

Please highlight this story. ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago. kfor.com/news/local/w...
