Gavin Newsom just did what every governor must when faced with illegal federal overreach: he stood up, spoke out, and sued. As Trump veers into authoritarianism, California is now ground zero for a historic constitutional fight. Jen Rubin breaks it down.

Imagine being active on Twitter, the site that is a festering cesspool of racism, far-right ideology, misogyny, etc. & where opinions running counter to the owner are deboosted, and arguing that Bluesky is super toxic because some leftists get feisty. Really demonstrates how Twitter cooks your brain

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

I notice people calling what we’re seeing these last couple of days “riots.” I was here during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. That’s not what this is. Local police can handle this, but ICE needs to back off—especially with these amateur hires who don’t know what the f*ck they’re doing.

Are Trump's actions in LA a distraction? @gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "A hundred percent. It's all about news cycles. Whatever he can to distract. I mean, disastrous economic policies... Even his his biggest sycophant in the country, Elon Musk, said likely a recession in the second half of the year."

"In our federal system, the National Gov. possesses only limited powers; the States and the people retain the remainder. The States have broad authority to enact legislation for the public good—what we have often called a 'police power.' The Fed. Gov., by contrast, has no such authority."-SCOTUS '14

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

If the Trump administration worked half as hard on real immigration reform as they do on headlines about it, we wouldn’t need the National Guard to cover their failures, or to distract from who’s in the Epstein files.
