Our military deserves better than this empty charade. Yikes. The tank squeaking over silence is incredible.

I'm sure there are other bleachers absolutely stuffed with people! Right? Right? In a small local Montana town of close to 9,000 people there were around 600 marchers. Plus half a dozen tRump supporters with their grand kids, just ya know, grooming them into fascism.

Please keep your eyes on Portland Oregon right now There's a riot declared near the ice facility in Portland and DHS agents have pulled lethal guns on protesters with live ammo at least four times the last half hour

As the curfew approaches, LAPD are shooting less lethal munitions near downtown’s South Broadway and West 3rd Street, in an ongoing skirmish off of the No Kings protests. In some cases it’s not clear why police are targeting the people they’re shooting. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.

A major sponsor of Trump’s pathetic fascist military birthday parade is announced as the logo appears on the screen…it’s Palantir! It’s the least Peter Thiel can do after the Trump admin, aided by Elon, gave him full access to the most sensitive data of every American w/o permission or disclosure.

“The Trump Organization has consistently made use of temporary visa programs to hire foreign workers for Mar-a-Lago, four golf clubs and his Virginia winery—filing to bring in at least 1,880 seasonal workers since 2008.” www.forbes.com/sites/zachev...

TODAY, I am joined by @cisneros.house.gov, @congresstran.bsky.social, @chirla-org.bsky.social & @aclu.org at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center to demand answers about unjustly detained immigrants after targeted raids on LA businesses. ICE is denying us entry but we won’t stop demanding answers.

Just wrapped up a press conference with @housedemocrats.bsky.social demanding answers for the treatment of @padilla.senate.gov, who was violently handcuffed by Trump's DHS officials for doing his job. Here are my thoughts:

If Trump is willing to go after Senator Padilla, imagine what he’d do to everyday Americans. California Democrats, and House Democrats, stand united with @padilla.senate.gov.

Elon Musk: "Yet another reason why we should defund public schools and socialist things like school busses and have all children be homeschooled or driven to private schools by one of their parents' chauffeurs."

Heard Senator Padilla identify himself. By tomorrow most of the whole world will have seen and heard the senator identify himself. DHS is ridiculous.

Remember Jan 6 rioters trying to hang Mike Pence? Rather than call in the National Guard, as requested, Trump sat there watching the rioters for hours, then pardoned them when reelected. The hypocrisy & cruelty of this authoritarian regime is shameful. #resist #GoodTrouble #PeacefulProtest #NoKings
