Thoughts and prayers for the MAGA warriors who are being personally traumatized by this scene

How on earth can this country still hold the World Cup and Olympics next year??

Nat Guard/DHS threw tear gas canisters and smoke grenades into the crowd. Protesters and media hit. Pellet rounds deployed. All to seemingly clear path for a convoy of DHS/Border Patrol vehicles. I got hit but fine after an eye rinse.

Now, more than ever!

If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

The Israeli defense minister is openly threatening the life of GretaThunberg and other unarmed peace activists on an aid ship. Where the f**k are the world’s leaders? The world’s media?

Tyranny requires constant effort. Oppression is the mask of fear. Authority is brittle. And most importantly: you are never truly alone when standing up to authoritarianism. You have friends everywhere.

Breaking: ABC News says senior national correspondent Terry Moran "has been suspended pending further evaluation." This since-deleted tweet is the reason for the suspension:

ICE crossed a line in LA

Behind the scenes..

ICE raids hit across Los Angeles today—and locals are rising up. This is what resistance looks like. ✊🏾 This was about an hour ago…

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

Don’t let Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s Twitter war distract you from what’s at stake: 16 million people will lose their health care if Trump’s “beautiful” bill gets to his desk. While they continue to fight, I am focused on protecting your health care.

Lee: Would say it would be “illegal DEI” for a lesson plan on the Tulsa race massacre? McMahon: I’d have to get back to you Lee: Do you know what the Tulsa race massacre is? McMahon: I’d like to look into it more and get back to you on it.

Wow, do we have a name?

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

The More You Get Infected, the More Likely You’ll Get Long COVID People still think long COVID is rare. Like it only happens to anxious people. Or people who “did it wrong.” Like there’s some moral math to this. If you got sick, it’s because you panicked too much. (1/18)

Best friends Murphy and Chester

My loyal companion Bode died last night of canine lymphoma. Since 2016, he was by my side at work and at play. He was always happy and no matter how bad other things were, he always made me smile. Quite simply, he was the best dog ever. I already miss him terribly.

I have endured his scurrilous attacks for years. He has sued me for racketeering — and lost. He has unleashed his right-wing army of online trolls. Since his reelection, he has threatened me, defamed me and singled me out by name in two executive orders. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-t...
