Over last day, Kirk has called for a total ban on non-white immigration, promoted a white supremacist VDARE guy, and talked Great Replacement conspiracy while showing off racist chart generated by AmRen. Kirk’s org. has planted themselves in hundreds of K-12 schools and colleges across the country.

Why is Trump sending troops to LA? He couldn’t figure out how to rationalize sending them to Harvard.

The bottom line on the Trump-Musk feud www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Worth bearing in mind that illegal entry is a misdemeanor and being unlawfully present in the country is not even a criminal offense, but a civil one. This is the equivalent of saying we need to torch the Constitution & send in the SWAT team to catch jaywalkers & people with overdue library books.

Philly local tv station reporting that a man allegedly posed as an ICE agent in order to rob a car repair business office. How many other criminals might be getting this idea right now, given that actual ICE agents are refusing to show IDs, warrants, badges?

this is just what “mass deportation” looks like, it’s government stormtroopers kicking down doors and ripping parents from crying kids while pepper spraying their protesting family and neighbors

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

if white Americans didn’t want Mexicans in California maybe they should not have conquered California from Mexico and then spent 150 years building up an economy entirely dependent on the flow of people and goods across the border just a thought

Once again, if even a single municipal level Democrat ever said something like this about rural Iowa or Texas or its citizens, it would be a week-long National Conversation™️ on CNN about the need for liberals to respect Real Folkz & be more civil. This? Gone tomorrow. Because it’s another week.

“Trump is using military forces to stop a protest — I want y'all to consider what kind of government it appears to be when every time we exercise our democratic right to protest, the military is deployed against us.” Doechii at the #BETAwards

Literally just this joke from Futurama, but cops. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hyt...

The sudden switch from dog whistling to overt racism has been…stark to witness. Just terrible for our nation.

This is exactly the procedural hardball Dems need to constantly be doing.

Car crashes have killed or seriously injured roughly the same number of people as shootings in Chicago this year, but only one of these things is treated as a public safety crisis.

Santa Ana, CA: 1:30pm - More bodies are needed at the ICE protest

Come for the news, stay for the ads.

Law enforcement injure at least 4 journalists covering protests in California amid federal crackdown cpj.org/2025/06/law-...

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.

Do people know that about 5% of US service members, around 13,000 of em, don't have US citizenship or that the military dangles citizenship over immigrant troops' heads only to jerk it away after their like 5th stoploss extension

It really looks like Trump's "deployment" of 200 CA National Guard members was a rash decision based off watching too much TV and needing to get his feud with Elon Musk out of the news. They're standing there doing nothing, wasting taxpayer dollars in the process.

every avenue from this point (they sleep on the floor for a couple days then go home, they sleep on the floor for many days and then go home, or they get a semi-permanent staging ground for a military occupation) is a perfect gradient from funny to absolute unsustainable shitshow

NEW: the LAPD reportedly used a helicopter unit to tell protestors they were on camera and “I’m going to come to your house.” The ACLU and EFF both say the statement is chilling: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

So Mirriam Webster has announced that 'FRIDGE' is an official word in their dictionary now, and sited me as the concept's creator in the definition. Very cool, and weird at the same time. I got death threats over this, cool for it it to be recognized. www.merriam-webster.com/slang/fridge

Both Q-Anon and Anti-vax are, at their core, new forms of anti-semitic blood libel.

HISTORY MATTERS. Thanks to a recent acquisition, we now have primary source evidence that Wally Bear's father really isn't wearing pants, and it isn't just an artifact of the NES' palette limitations. We could never have unearthed this without the support of generous donors just like you.

They've pivoted not from "ethically cleanse an entire city," to "professional agitators" are to blame. Both neoliberals and fascists have pushed this conspiracy, and it has its roots in anti-Black and anti-Semitic right-wing circles. itsgoingdown.org/the-anti-bla...

Downtown Los Angeles, 1937

Millions of conservatives believe that most US cities literally burned to the ground five years ago and there’s no convincing them otherwise, because they’ll never go visit.

Holy shit they're running the God damned military on the fucking Target/Wal-Mart 39.5 hours plan.

I would ask Thomas this directly, but he's turned off quote posts and replies for those who don't follow him — not missing much there — so I suppose I'll have to ask it here: Who won the 2020 presidential election?

Parents and teachers in southern California are urgently asking for help to find a fourth grader who is being “held captive” by immigration authorities in Texas.

This is still one of the best ways to limit deportations. Stop collaborations between ICE, local police departments, sheriffs, and county jails.

Wow. New CBS poll finds majority (55%) supports the *general goal* of deportations, but a bigger majority (56%) dislikes how Trump is carrying them out. And 63% want due process. Again, we need a better discourse around public opinion on immigration, as I've argued: newrepublic.com/article/1961...

“one of the most expensive hobbies around?” whoever wrote this should talk to a photographer sometime

These charts in the post together with The Chart® tell the entire story of the election and most of the discourse and punditry about it is just completely unnecessary.

remember when Cuomo sent thousands of active Covid cases back to nursing homes, causing the deaths of like 6k people, and then covered it up?

“I’ve seen some inmates just sit there and cry. Some cry all day." The conditions abducted migrants are subjected to at Miami Federal Detention Center are so abhorrent men staged a protest by flooding a toilet. Authorities responded by assaulting them with rubber bullets and flash-bang grenades.

No ambiguity. He just straight-up shot this reporter.
