Just a reminder that the money being spent on Trump’s ego parade could feed every single homeless veteran in America for more than four months.

It’s time for our Republican colleagues to speak out against this crap. This is not who we are.

NEW: Feds cut off public/press access to Sacramento Immigration Court, via @sacbee_news www.sacbee.com/news/politic...

They're rich but they aren't "the oligarch won't arrest ME" rich. Their cries will fall on callous ears.

NYT: New guidance yesterday from senior ICE official Tatum King to his underlings: "Effective today, please hold on all work site enforcement investigations/operations on agriculture (including aquaculture and meat packing plants), restaurants and operating hotels." www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/u...

They wanted max cruelty. Shock and awe for the cameras. But all they did was traumatize a bunch of poor kids who’ll never forget it. An L.A. mom, US citizen, watched as unmarked vehicles rolled up. Masked, heavily armed ICE agents, guns drawn. And Cosplay Kristi Noem right there playing warlord!

ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted Women and children in parks

From a dear comrade who was kind enough to let me share their video. Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!

I am so glad you checked this! I had this thought earlier today / is anyone even coming in town for this BS?

Another person has been killed, this time in central Israel, due to Islamic Republic of Iran retaliatory missile strikes. Israel’s emergency services are also treating another 23 for injuries. Over 80 have been injured at this point.

There are literally No Kings protests all over the WORLD tomorrow. Find yours here and stop by: www.mobilize.us/nokings/

"No Kings must break through to normies, independents, and Trump voters feeling remorse...Size is persuasion...If 100,000 people show up for Trump’s parade, but 5,000,000 people turn out across the country for No Kings rallies, who looks strong and who looks weak?" www.thebulwark.com/p/no-kings-n...

“.. Trump keeps claiming that all the wars that broke out under his predecessor .. would never have happened on his watch, because he .. is so strong and universally respected. Well, here is a close US ally, Bibi, ignoring Trump’s wishes ..” @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

In response to the Brevard Co (FL) sheriff's incendiary speech threatening the kill protestors who point guns at police (which they've always had the right to do), I see ppl saying "hey, FL is a Stand Your Ground state, so, y'know...." So just want to remind ppl: there's no SYG vs cops.

The juxtaposition was jarring As Senator Padilla was being abused and arrested Kristi Noem said the military and National Guard “are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and..burdensome leadership..this governor and mayor have placed on this country” www.nytimes.com/video/us/pol...

I think Republicans really need to understand that if people are denied relief through the legal system, they will find other ways to seek justice, and historically those ways end up being quite violent

Why is Kristi Noem’s bone-chilling pledge of a “regime change” in Calif not getting media coverage?! Noem’s speech yesterday called for "liberating" Calif from Gov Newsom and Mayor Bass. Trump wants to remove elected officials who defy him. My new article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/why-is-kri...

HAPPENING NOW: Lawyers for Mahmoud Khalil ask the judge overseeing his case to explicitly order his release from immigration detention. The judge's order was ambiguous on this, and the administration has not made clear whether it will, in fact, release him at 9:30 (CT) today.

Iran hasn’t hit back—yet. Despite last night’s events, it has yet to seriously harm Israel. Israel braced for 140 missiles—but preemptive strikes disrupted Iran’s command and crippled its ability to launch the attack.

Israel is now striking Iran’s Fordow uranium enrichment facility. This is an important one for the Iranians and hard to reach because it’s buried deep.

No kings has been our thing for 250 years. We aren't going back.

Trump wants a parade for his birthday. Try earning one. Meanwhile, veterans are fighting for housing, healthcare, & jobs - not confetti. Military parades are for heroes, not draft dodgers. #AZ06

UPDATE: By a tally of 98-2 percent, American Airlines shareholders voted to reject an anti-DEI / LGBTQ+ proposal.

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

Gov. Pritzker: “It's wrong to deploy the National Guard and active duty Marines into an American city over the objection of local law enforcement, just to inflame a situation and create a crisis.”

Newsom is talking the way every governor, senator, and member of congress with a conscience and a spine should be talking.

WATCH: “I WAS AN INTERPRETER IN AFGHANISTAN FOR 3 YEARS.” ICE grabs a man whose name they don’t even know at his immigration hearing, shackles him, expedites his removal. Q: Why would anyone ever help our military again? — Trump is endangering and weakening our military.

Trump Is Expanding His Thuggish War on Union Leaders newrepublic.com/article/1966... via @newrepublic.com

more crime in america

This seems a bit different than what Trump is saying.

@schumer.senate.gov

Let’s stop pretending we’re living through anything resembling normal. Let’s bury the lie that the Rep. Party is a political movement. It’s not. It’s a radicalized cult of personality wrapped in the American flag & soaked in gasoline, waiting for the next match. open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...

Yesterday, a senior DHS official gave a briefing to an anti-voting group founded by Cleta Mitchell. The event focused on using a federal database to check registered voters’ citizenship information. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Exactly

The Department of Energy is quietly slashing disability rights

A document circulated to members of Congress misinterprets studies and cites debunked research, scientists say. It could influence congressional perceptions of vaccine safety.

“President Trump is writing online.” Total #complicitmedia fail. Ol’ Joe would be fully prepared and on camera right now.

You have to add up all the red bars and stack them on top of each other to pay for the green bar.
