Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

According to the law, specifically 32 U.S.C. § 328, it not only empowers a Governor to order National Guard troops to duty, it also empowers a Governor to decline the National Guard even though the President orders to duty Governor Gavin Newsom, needs to show that Orange-Ass MF who the boss is!

This is a dictatorial provocation: Trump took extraordinary action on Saturday by deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to quell immigration protesters in California, making rare use of federal powers and bypassing the authority of the state’s governor, Gavin Newsom.

"Gov. Gavin Newsom of California described the order as “purposefully inflammatory,” saying that the federal government was mobilizing the National Guard “not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.” Trump is a clown 🤡 www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

What's in *your* head? Especially *today*. (thanks, Dol! you're missed!) 🤘😎 youtu.be/6Ejga4kJUts?...

Want to invade California, take its tax dollars and give nothing back? Maybe those tax dollars stay in California then. What are you going to do, send the National Guard to take them? www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

I’m ashamed of America.

1/ If accurate, this is almost certainly a conflict with the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement, including the National Guard if they are federalized.

Trump can try all he want to pretend he is some kind of victim of Musk’s insanity, which is clearly the strategy. But he enabled and bearhugged and took all that dough. Dems cannot allow Trump to decouple him from Musk, now or ever.

Torres: It demonstrates that Trump is not pro-crypto, he’s not pro-blockchain—he’s not even pro-Web3. I doubt he could define any of those terms. He is simply pro-Trump. The only ideology Trump has is himself. His presidency exists to enrich him and his family, and crypto is just a means to that end

This ain’t the way to thaw US/Canada relations. Expel this clown. Hoekstra can get fucked.

New in PN: Adam Serwer on America's "new dark age" "They see this as a long-term investment in a more ignorant population reliant on sources of information they can control — a docile population that can be easily manipulated." — @adamserwer.bsky.social

Sounds like Nazis: "Part of a broader wave of immigration enforcement actions nationwide. Advocacy groups and immigration attorneys have criticized these actions, labeling them a 'dragnet' operation targeting immigrants complying with the law." kfiam640.iheart.com/featured/la-...

Guns are the leading cause of death for children and teens in the United States. During National #GunViolenceAwarenessMonth, we must work to end gun violence because our kids deserve to be safe.

seems to me the basic error these centrists are making is that they are playing on enemy turf, rather than trying to raise the salience of issues that favor them

Bitch you're the only person talking about this shit! This is letting the other side dictate the debate! We've been beaten over the head with Alexander Hamilton quotes for a decade and yet party leadership still hasn't internalized the easiest thing: "Those who stand for nothing fall for anything."

Abolish ICE

This brings back that horrible, painful, traumatizing memory of the time he told Mike Pence “we can’t be friends anymore.” Life can be so hard. 😢

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to *be* law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

I think these blue state ICE raids can be seen as the regime trying to conquer small-d democratic states since red states are in no way real democracies and therefore don’t require conquering

If you think ICE agents are justified in disrupting an elementary school graduation to detain parents in front of their traumatized children, we will never see eye to eye on anything.

$2.1 billion, 1/3 of corporate fund budget

A viral video with the logo of Saudi outlet Al Arabiya falsely claims President Zelensky's bought a $3.2m flat in Dubai's Burj Khalifa for his mother. The video is fake. It's likely the work of a Russian disinformation operation that imitates major news outlets to spread fake news about Ukraine.

Congress is poised to increase energy bills by hundreds of dollars in order to block renewable energy projects.

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

That’s good news 👍🏻 #Trump #MAGA #Republicans #Democrats #Politics

WE WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED. I stand with SEIU California. I stand with President David Huerta. As Americans, we have the absolute First Amendment right to peacefully observe. As a result of extreme ICE actions, more Americans will righteously exercise our rights to monitor ICE.

We’re now seeing paramilitary ICE raids in LA — with full on military garb, military tanks, flash bang grenades & the arrest of a major labor leader. This is a core manifestation of fascism — using federal forces to put down dissent. If we don’t stop this now, this is the future everywhere.
