🦋 BREAKING: National Guard storm peaceful protesters Shooting nonlethal rounds & dragging away a protester outside the Federal Detention Centre in downtown Los Angeles There were no signs of any violence or abuse prior to the incident 🦋

The head of the department of homeland security announced that she planned to use military force to take over a democratically elected government in the state of California and we are arguing about whether a California Senator properly identified himself at the door.

All you need to do is show up. Your presence will speak eloquently. Without words, it will declare with piercing clarity that you are among the sprawling assembly that refuses to consent to the dismantling of this nation. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/a-letter-t...

Calls grow for Kristi Noem to resign in the wake of Padilla incident

Reached ZERO trade deals. Ended/stopped ZERO wars. Militarized troops AGAINST citizens.

It’s looking more and more like a dictatorship. That’s no way to treat a U.S. Senator. Claiming he was an attacker and failed to identify himself is delusional he’s a sitting senator. America is watching, and the tides are turning.

“Kristi Noem should resign for what has happened under her watch,” Rep. Swalwell said in an interview. “No one asked for this. We were promised violent criminals would be deported. Instead,...[it's] the second member of Congress in 45 days who’s been arrested." www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Picking radishes is no easy task. Efrén spends 8-10 hrs/day on his knees, picking and sorting the radishes into small bunches to fill dozens of crates a day in CA's Ventura County. He's proud to have worked in America's fields for 49 years. #WeFeedYou

NEWSOM: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, Putin, dictators that are weak… How weak do you have to be to commandeer the military for your birthday?“

“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.” @cbsaustin @velez_tx

Call your senators, demand they shut the Senate down.

Newsom: "Speaker Johnson -- his eloquence was elevated when he called to 'tar and feather' the governor of California. Very religious man. I guess that's the spirit. The word of the Lord."

We’ve uncovered fraud, waste, and abuse! ICE has now exceeded its congressionally approved budget. ICE is violating the Antideficiency Act by spending beyond Congressional authorization.

"They took her in a car, in essence kidnapping her ... I met another young woman whose husband has quite literally disappeared" -- Newsom shares harrowing details of specific cases of ICE terrorizing immigrants in California

Take a listen and seriously consider it. While this is not an uncommon practice, I am glad people are beginning to speak up about it.

Yessss!

Well, well... Now hear this, Marines. ICE came for a family member of one of your own. A mother of two. You're on the wrong side of history. Your identity will destroy you, for your participation. You need to put down the guns. Or wait for more. 💯We told you, he doesn't care about you or family.

BREAKING: Judge Breyer has issued an injunction finding that Trump exceeded the scope of his authority and violated the 10th Amendment by federalizing the California National Guard. He has ordered Trump immediately return control to Gov. Newsom. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I repeat, dog murderer adulterer Kristi Noem is banned by all 9 Native American tribes in South Dakota from visiting their lands, her only agenda has always been white supremacy and cruelty. She’s as evil and hateful as she is stupid.

Judge Breyer has ordered Trump to return control of the National Guard back to California. The courts must continue to hold the line against the illegal acts of this administration.

Court finds Trump’s actions were “illegal.” Plaintiff State of CA won! Pound sand Kristi Noem, Trump, Miller and Republicans. Stay in your lane #NoFascistUSA #Voices4Victory

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., speaks out after Senator Alex Padilla was forcibly removed and handcuffed during a DHS press conference. In a statement, the Department of Homeland Security said law enforcement “acted appropriately.”

AOC: “They’re making people undocumented by removing LEGAL status, then having the audacity to call them illegal… correct?” @govpritzker.illinois.gov: “Taking their legal right to be here away.” @aoc.bsky.social: “The Republican majority is anti-LEGAL immigration, I want to make that very clear.”

I am sounding the alarm as loudly as I can that Donald Trump has turned the Department of Justice into a cog in his authoritarian machine to prosecute his political opponents.

A man with a green card said ICE agents arrested him in #Lynn, Mass then took him to a detention facility—but first made a detour to a cemetery, where they took him out of their vehicle and beat him. #mapoli #Massachusetts

SCOOP — ICE employees received an email yesterday telling them the agency's warrantless arrest policy had been rescinded. It's likely part of the Trump administration's efforts to further loosen enforcement restrictions to meet the new quota of 3,000 immigration arrests per day. My report:

Pope Leo’s first US episcopal appointment, San Diego’s Bishop-designate Pham, a Vietnamese refugee, invites priests and faith leaders to “stand in solidarity”with migrants at courthouse on June 20, as they make court appearances.

Seems relevant.

Wait. Cuomo demanded gynecological records of the women who he allegedly sexually harassed? Freaky ass frog!!!!!

The most important words of our Constitution are the first three: We the People. We have no Kings here, no monarchs, no slaves and no subjects. We the People.

The Israeli military has begun airstrikes against Iran, two U.S. officials said Thursday evening, a dramatic escalation that increased the chances of an all-out war between the countries and expanding the long-running regional conflict. www.nbcnews.com/world/israel...

This is a lesson the men who manhandled U.S. Senator Alex Padilla need to learn.

Trump's DHS is out of control! The violent treatment of Senator Alex Padilla is a stark reminder of the administration's authoritarian agenda. Trump's America is a dystopian nightmare.

Pete is 100% correct: "Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty." Use this toolkit to stand with Sen. Alex Padilla ➡️ social.demcast.com/toolkit/dail...

Video of Sen Padilla's removal is quickly spreading online Prominent Dems & lawmakers are posting video In one video of the exchange, Padilla can be heard identifying himself as he's manhandled Later, he's handcuffed on the floor after being shoved out of the press conference

Before indentified agents threw my senator to the ground for asking a question, Kristi Noem announced the Trump administration’s intent to “liberate” Los Angeles from the leaders WE ELECTED in free and fair elections. That’s not liberation. That’s dictatorship. #NOKINGS

LOVE this response by Rick Wilson to Senator Padilla’s being taken down by Gestapo thugs at Cosplay Barbie’s press conference! 😡 @therickwilson.bsky.social @lincolnproject.us

There is no universe in which it is acceptable for a Secretary of DHS to say anything like this. Kristi Noem must resign immediately. Or be impeached.

BULLETIN COUNTDOWN PODCAST NOW LIVE: The physical assault on Senator Padilla at the Kristi Noem Propaganda Conference confirms: Trump and his gang are domestic terrorists PLUS Hegseth won't confirm he'll abide by civil courts New bulletin podcast here: tinyurl.com/mt3wda77

FIRST ON MSNBC: "It's all BS coming from Trump." Sen. Padilla gets emotional talking about the treatment of immigrants from the Trump administration hours after being forcibly removed from a DHS press conference.

This video makes clear that Senator Padilla was not “charging” the Secy when Homeland Security agents began roughing him up and pushing him forcefully out of the room as he identified himself and tried to ask his question. youtu.be/gL08Xe31Ff8

More performative BS from Pam Bondi. January 6th is NOT the LA protests. Don’t let her lies stand without pushback.
