Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

i've been trying to see what the right wing platforms (even outside of X) are showing people regarding the protests in LA and i am not sure it can be overstated just how much the AI slop is being used to reinforce the idea that downtown is a post-apocalyptic war zone

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

They wanted to pass this evil budget to take away healthcare from millions earlier today. It’s still stuck in the rules committee cause House Dems introduced over 500 amendments and we are lined up to debate on them. Delaying is important. Keep up the pressure on these Congressional Republicans.

I think it’s rather fitting that Pope Francis spent some of his final time on this earth with J.D. Vance. He died offering the wisdom of God’s light where it was desperately needed the most.

As always, it's an insane definition of "establishment" which excludes the incumbent two-term president, majorities in Congress, give or take half the state governments, and a supermajority on the Supreme Court. These are the most powerful people in the world still cosplaying as oppressed victims.

Health and Human Services has removed a former surgeon general's warning declaring gun violence a public health crisis. Vivek Murthy — who served under President Biden — issued the advisory last year, citing the increasing number of firearm-related injuries and deaths in the U.S.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Some in the media are depicting Trump's cutoff of aid to Ukraine as a result of his testy meeting with Zelenskyy last week. That's naive. What's far more likely is that Trump planned to abandon Ukraine even before the meeting and set up the televised ambush of Zelenskyy as a pretext.

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

There is literally HIV being transmitted from mom to baby because of the illegal shutdown of US AID and now Trump’s State Department wants to spend 400 million dollars on Tesla cyber trucks. This is not about efficiency. It’s a smash and grab.

This Politico story from last October shows how easy it is to launder lies through the press. It claimed Trump would ban anyone tied to Project 2025 from a job in a second Trump administration. “Clearly people working on Project 2025 are blacklisted,” said an unidentified Trump insider. 1/4🧵
