the people in LA putting their safety on the line right now to try and stop ICE are the bravest people we have got

Los Angeles should be proud to have a Superintendent like @lausdsup.bsky.social Alberto Carvalho. Every Superintendent should take note. THIS is how a leader behaves.

❤️ if you believe we are less safe under Trump.

People have forgotten what happened in Los Angeles after the Rodney King trial debacle...

HAPPENING NOW: Protesters are still clashing with ICE agents following a raid operation at a Hope Depot near Los Angeles 📍Paramount, CA

Seems Ukraine may have just done it again. Russians saying a grain train opened up and drones popped out, destroyed an entire locomotive, 13 tanks, armored vehicles etc.. (jayinkyiv posted it first)

Proud to have scooped the NYT by two days on this!

Republicans snuck a line into their "big beautiful bill” that could CLOSE nearly 200 Planned Parenthood locations. And guess what? 90% of those centers would be in states where abortion is LEGAL. It’s one step closer to banning abortion nationwide.

📌NOTE: I could point these gutless, masked ICE Nazis to 850 farms here in Wisconsin “harboring” undocumented workers. They’re easy to find because of they have Trump signs …

Snatched in plain sight. Congress, where are you on this? Plainclothes. No identification. Unmarked cars with everyday plates. Anyone can throw on regular clothes, flash a fake badge, and claim to be “ICE.” A reckless operation and dangerous. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov

#ProudBlue NO KINGS DAY!! Let’s go America. June 14th, let’s show the world what we are made of. Find a protest near you. www.fiftyfifty.one

Dozens of protesters, many in wheelchairs, protested proposed cuts to Medicaid during a congressional hearing.⁠ ⁠ The #BigBadBill will reduce Medicaid spending by $625 billion over 10 years & leave millions uninsured, ☎️ your Senators & say “Hell no!” 202-224-3121

it's Saturday, and it's time for "this week in stupid: June 7 edition" — Joni doubles down, Grassley is a clown, and so much more... thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

I’m not going to bore everyone here with Harvard stories (I’m at my 25yr reunion). But: * “They” say it’s the most well attended reunion. * The level of “fuck Trump” here is off the charts. * Even the Republicans I knew in college are like “fuck Trump.”

In preparation for next week’s parade/demonstration, tanks are being moved into Washington, DC today. Unprecedented. (Photo from a colleague in DC)

Caturday Friends #1 😺 @goodplacejames.bsky.social @raykwong.bsky.social @xleaver.bsky.social @stephen5150.bsky.social @gmoyer17.bsky.social @thecaffeinator.bsky.social @barbawat.bsky.social @chey0410.bsky.social @godlessprimate.bsky.social @allie-froglegs.bsky.social @yecats47.bsky.social

Great question from a member of our community. Why do the rich hate to pay their taxes so much when they will still be fabulously wealthy if when they do?

Expect a fixed “sue and settle” outcome with MAGA DOJ. Taxpayer resources to political allies is their specialty. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Elmo has removed all his “Epstein tweets” from X. Turns out he’s a bigger TACO than Trump. Sad!

“Scott said, ‘You’re a fraud. You’re a total fraud' ... Musk then rammed his shoulder into Bessent’s rib cage 'like a rugby player,' Bannon said, and Bessent hit him back."
