Sen. Alex Padilla was just removed from Kristi Noem's press conference in Los Angeles (video: Bill Melugin/Fox News)

The riot police threw a police riot

Being uninvited from the White House caused Rand Paul to lose a lot of the respect he had for Donald Trump that Trump’s two impeachments, insurrection, four criminal indictments, criminal conviction, and sexual abuse damages verdict did not cause him to lose. Got it.

I may not always love you But long as there are stars above you You never need to doubt it I'll make you so sure about it...

No one needs to be told this, but in policing research there’s this thing called “cop culture” [see Robert Reiner] and part of it is a “thirst for action”. Police inherently want there to be riots and a chase because police work, for the most part, is extremely boring.

In the next civil war, "the dividing line will not be Mason and Dixon, but between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition, and ignorance on the other." - Ulysses S. Grant, 1875

The Washington Post, which silenced its Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist and reduced its opinion pages to a defense of “free markets and democracy” alone, would like to lecture other people on the importance of a free and full exchange of all ideas.

I waitress while I run for Congress. I know what it’s like to stretch a paycheck, juggle bills, and still show up for your community. Washington needs more people who live like us — not just talk about us. Derrick Van Orden talks the talk. I'll walk the walk.

This would be blatantly illegal absent a declaration of martial law (which might also be illegal)

Insane scenes in Downtown Los Angeles as the cops open fire indiscriminately on people milling about. The cops shattered a business’s windows while firing on a live-streaming journalist. Keep this in mind when people talk about the protesters causing property destruction. 🎥 : AXN News on YouTube

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

Navarro: I'm very happy to see somebody that isn't afraid to speak up and call an authoritarian an authoritarian. And if it's Newsom, as a result of what's happening in California now, I welcome it because I have been so thirsty for somebody that is not cowardly

The media is going to BOTH SIDES us right into martial law

Just a reminder that tear gassing civilians violates the Geneva Conventions for chemical weapons of war, but nobody in America talks about it nor cares, bc the United States is a rogue militarized police state.

Not so much his demented ravings, but that a roomful of presumably sane adults surrounds him nodding and acting for all the world as if those ravings made sense.

It is a disgrace that the Department of Defense continues to post partisan political messages on social media and a disgrace that the DHS Secretary is making political statements about elections from the Oval Office. They piss on this country’s traditions daily. bsky.app/profile/atru...

lol ABC News just fired Terry Moran when these people pretend in 10-20 years that they did their best to stop what's happening during the press tour for their memoirs feel free to ignore them

Connecticut stands with California today. All Americans should have their eyes on California right now and the President’s unlawful, unwarranted and incendiary abuse of the National Guard and potentially other federal troops against our own citizens on American soil.

The situation in Los Angeles looks so bad Oklahoma has already banned it from being taught in schools.

Got me cussing at the TV now. "No, they hate you, you fucking scumbag."🇺🇸

Kristi Noem: "In LA, what we're been going after is the worst of the worst. They're murderers." [Kristi Noem then raids a Home Depot to arrest people just looking to help with home improvement jobs.] Trump people lie so effortlessly and often.

PC409 exempts media from dispersal orders. The law changed, in part, after LAPD detained multiple reporters, including me, during demonstrations against a sweep of an Echo Park homeless encampment in 2021. I’m not there but this seems legally dubious…

CNN reports that around 500 active-duty Marines are being deployed to Los Angeles, while Reuters puts the number at 700. Either way, the U.S. military is being used as a show of force against its own citizens, and he won’t stop at California.

Absolutely right.

DNI Tulsi Gabbard repeats Putin’s talking points today, releasing an unhinged video where she claims that “political elites” want a nuclear war with Russia because they have sophisticated bomb shelters that will help them survive it.

Yes, Los Angeles is a serious situation, but we must continue to remind Americans that Trump has done nothing to bring down essential medical, housing & transportation costs. Nothing. He is lying human scum. #NoKings www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Man, fuck this guy. What a disappointment.

Hypocrisy. Leave it to Leavitt.

Start with them.

You fight for a zygote, but cheer when a child is ripped from a mother‘s arms by ICE. Tells me everything I need to know about you.

I like this Gavin more than podcast Gavin.

Profiles in Courage

LA will win this fight against ICE by continuing to be itself. LA already knows who the cops are. LA already knows how to deal with them. And no one ever wins a culture war against LA. No one ever has. No one ever will. Just keep being you LA. ♥️

I just drove by a big LAPD staging area with lots of SUVs on the 110 north on ramp from grand. Be aware.

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.

BREAKING: RFK Jr. fires ACIP, the panel responsible for advising on vaccines. This breaks a promise to Sen. Bill Cassidy, who voted to advance Kennedy as HHS secretary on the condition that he would, among other things, keep ACIP in place. www.statnews.com/2025/06/09/r...
