The Los Angeles Dodgers announced today that the organization will donate $1 million to immigrant families impacted by recent raids.

Not only will the price of your coffee be going up under Taco Two Weeks tariffs, so too will your coffee makers.

Apparently Witkoff has never played Risk.

Donald Trump is not willing to get involved in something where he can't lie about the outcome.

Moreover, anyone who has had a parent with Alzheimer’s, will recognize an alarming trait. Trump is beginning to repeat stories. Here, he twice told the story of someone in Congress calling him up to “ask about all the money coming in”. That is not normal.

“Stupid is as stupid does.”

@disneyland.bsky.social does parades way better than what’s happening today in DC.

No better way to build morale in the military than forcing troops to march down largely empty streets in a thunderstorm to celebrate a draft dodger’s birthday

San Diego SHOW OUT CAN I GET A HELL YEAH

We have entered the "The police is saying that if the police is at your door you are not safe call the police immediately" stage of making America great again

😳😮😲. As the Joe Turns

MAGA losing its fucking mind because Walmart heiress Christy Walton took out this full page ad in NY Times promoting #NoKings anti-Trump protests

What a rotten reality to have a White House occupant who hates so many Americans and hates everything our democratic nation stands for.

Drag queens are at the Kennedy Center to protest Donald Trump, who is in attendance for a performance of Les Misérables

Can we – meaning those of us who live in California – PLEASE just secede from this level of moronic rule? Just break free and see how MAGA does without our economy.

Governor Gavin Newsom’s press office, as usual, is doing good work to debunk Trump’s lies

California representatives did a check in where migrants were being detained. They found no beds, no food and no water. Children were among the detained.

The Obama administration deported over 3.16 million people. Biden’s passed 4.44 million. Not once did either need troops in the streets to do it. That’s all you need to know about what’s happening.

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

Perhaps the Secretary of Commerce should understand… commerce?

👀 🍿 😂

We fought a war so we wouldn’t have a ruler who wanted majesty. It’s the people’s house, not a palace or a tacky casino.
