For the record, it is not legal for the U.S. President to deploy U.S. Marines or other active-duty military forces on U.S. soil for law enforcement purposes. #AuthoritarianTrump

Just a reminder that U.S. military personnel, whether in the National Guards or the Marines, are not trained for law enforcement. They are trained to kill, they are remarkably effective at it, and that is why there are such strict legal prohibitions on deploying military inside the United States.

@ivey.house.gov Stop using the word ‘deported’. Mr. Abrego Garcia and others sent to El Salvador were abducted & removed. Deportation is a legal process with requirements, including Due Process!

This is a major escalation: threatening to turn the US military on its own citizens. This is NOT allowed! This dumbass has no idea what he is doing!

There were a few hundred people protesting the ICE actions in California today. Most probably lived in the neighborhood that had been raided by armed, uniformed men who looked like soldiers and not police. The idea that the response to this 2,000 National Guard is fucking insane.

"If you have the courage to speak, we are saved. If you fall silent, the country is doomed." Scott Pelley had some strong words to share on tonight's CNN special after the telecast of "Good Night, and Good Luck." I wrote up the highlights here >>> www.cnn.com/2025/06/07/m...

I truly believe part of the reason this is happening in LA right now is because they want to scare us into not protesting for no Kings day. DT is actually worried he’s gonna lose the news cycle so he wants to make sure everyone is too scared. 1/2

ACLU Statement: "[T]he Trump administration is putting Angelenos in danger, creating legal and ethical jeopardy for troops, and recklessly undermining our foundational democratic principle that the military should not police civilians." "unnecessary, inflammatory, and an abuse of power"

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Miller’s tweet doesn’t just foreshadow invocation of the Insurrection Act, it reveals the regime’s monarchical designs. Trump is not our sovereign. It is we, the people, who are sovereign.

People in ICE detention are being denied health care and adequate nutrition, often given spoiled food or nothing at all. Our government’s cruelty to immigrants is a moral failing — not a policy solution.

300,000 people have already died, mostly from starvation, as a direct result from the defunding of USAID. These were real human beings with hopes and dreams just like you. Trump-Musk are 100% responsible for their deaths. Sadism kills.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

ICE is detaining people in LA in a basement with no beds, no air, no light and not enough food and water. These are crimes.

Stephen Miller is fulfilling his high school wet dream of terrorizing all the Brown people in Los Angeles. My daughter's friends who went to SaMo High with him said he used to seethe while the morning announcements were repeated in Spanish. Hell, they did that when I went there. (Mesozoic age.)

I will never get over the fact that he pardoned those criminals. Never. We must never ‘get over’ Jan 6th. We must never get over that he watched it all unfold for over 3 hours. We must never forget that he instigated all of it. The whole thing makes me sick.

The Trump administration would love to use war-style brutality and violence to attack all protestors. About 35% of the country would cheer it. Remind me why I should feel any community, any common humanity, any need to connect with those people.

#ProudBlue #Pinks 47 wants abortion illegal in all states. We may not be safe, even in blue states. Doctors may fear being prosecuted for performing needed healthcare. So much can go wrong in a pregnancy that puts a woman’s life in jeopardy. Guns are more important to republicans than human life.

I loathe Musk as much as anyone else but for a sitting president to openly threaten a private citizen over what political donations he or she chooses to make is a reminder of how authoritarian this country is becoming by the day - by the hour even!

This isn’t hard or complicated. For people weighing in w/different versions of this theme: Musk isn’t a good guy, we forget nothing, he’s not on the team, never will be on the team. We don’t mind if this disgusting evil alliance comes apart. That doesn’t make us Team Elon. Next.

Moskowitz: "Nothing has been made more efficient. Here are the wins for congressional Rs. You ready? They're gonna do a $9b recession bill. They're gonna get rid of Elmo, which the American people were clamoring for, but they're gonna add $2.4t for the debt. And then they want us to cheer for them."
