What the LAPD get up to when they think no-one is watching...

ICE raided Los Angeles elementary schools in an attempt to kidnap small children. They hid their identities, claimed they weren't ICE, and lied to school authorities that they had "permission" from the parents to take the children out. School officials luckily didn't fall for it.

Wanna stop the violence maybe stop raiding elementary schools and immigration hearings and actually go after those hardened criminals you screamed about. And be sure and give em due process you fascist fucks.

Any soldier who follows an order that isnt in direct compliance with the US constitution is in violation of his oath.

Let's go!

You know, it would be a good day for some patriotic anonymous government worker who's likely to get fired anyway to release those unredacted Epstein files.

BREAKING: LAPD didn’t just “detain” someone. They surrounded him, beat him, and jumped him — like a gang. On camera. On horses. While he screamed for help. Unarmed. Cornered. Alone. If that’s not state violence, what the fuck is?

Over 10,000 protesters marched peacefully through Downtown Los Angeles for a third straight day, their voices rising against ICE raids tearing families apart. In silence, they filled the freeway—an ocean of defiance and unity. No violence, just courage. This is what resistance looks like. 💪🔥✊🏽🕊️📣🇺🇸

DOGE was supposed to save $2T, saved $160B, cost $135B in buyouts, and nuked $323B in tax revenue. So basically, we paid $300B for all that chaos.

I'm stunned by this video, realizing that I too may need to know how to use a tear gas defuser.

If your response to this video is, “That’s what I voted for”— Fuck you. Fuck you very much. You’re heartless.

Tyranny requires constant effort. Oppression is the mask of fear. Authority is brittle. And most importantly: you are never truly alone when standing up to authoritarianism. You have friends everywhere.

"When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty."

Deploying the National Guard—over the objections of state leaders and local law enforcement—is a dangerous escalation. This isn’t about enforcing law and order, it’s about seizing power and control. Americans won’t tolerate this slide into authoritarianism.

Warning: ICE is planning 30 days of immigration raids across Los Angeles County. If you or someone you know may be impacted, now is the time to set up a support system, identify a safe place, and stay alert.

BRENNAN: You said in November the admin would fail if it began going after non-violent migrants. Ppl are getting arrested going to court appearances. Are these the worst of the worst? GONZALES: They're not... what I'd like for us to do is focus on the convicted criminals B: But is that happening?

The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 prohibits the U.S. military from engaging in domestic law enforcement activities against civilians. The Trump regime wants to use military force against unarmed US citizens.

Important point… in case facts still matter…

JULIETTE KAYYEM: “Active duty Marines for this, Hegseth? I mean, we were just reporting on it. There's music. The traffic is moving. Most people in L.A. probably don't even know this is going on.”

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

Possibly the gayest thing I've seen during pride month.

Wow. What a sign that criminal case against Abrego Garcia may be politically cooked up. "Schrader’s resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons" Schrader spent 15 years in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville and was chief of the criminal division

GOODLANDER: Do you have a sense, Administrator, of what the scale is, how many small business owners and employees depend on Medicaid? LOEFFLER: [Dodges question] GOODLANDER: The answer is 7 million small business owners and employees depend on Medicaid for affordable health care coverage.

Marie Harf nails it: Musk didn’t uncover waste—he fired Veterans, slashed Medicaid, and shut down aid to the world’s most vulnerable. Now China’s stepping in—and Republicans are stuck defending a billionaire with a chainsaw. This is the cost of cowardice.

Communities aren’t staying silent about ICE… 18-year-old Massachusetts high school student Marcelo Gomes was taken by ICE on his way to volleyball practice Saturday morning. No word on where he’s being held. Marcelo missed graduation today, so Milford HS graduates marched to rally in solidarity.

Zip tied children. We great yet?
