🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump cites false claims about noncitizen voting to justify expansion of deportation efforts to other Democratic controlled cities. I will have this and more in my newsletter to premium members tomorrow. Subscribe now. newsletters.democracydocket.com/member-meblu...

I am pretty sure the people have spoken. This isn't what we want. And the whole point of this weekend? A message to our current president: No Kings. You work for us, not the other way around.

Via ABC News's Rachel Scott, let's never forget for a minute what a classless scumbag the President is. x.com/rachelvscott...

A day after one assassination and a second assassination attempt in Minnesota Trump makes clear his intention to target cities with Democratic majorities and why. The violence is a feature, not a bug.

Typical toxic nonsense from this tiny man

Me, me, me, me, me! Everything is about me!! Everyone should thank me!! Poor me!!

If someone tells you this charade was to celebrate the military show them this photo. Who and what do you see at the center. This propaganda shot cost millions of dollars to produce. Every element is intentional.

What Noem said is crucially important: “‘We are not going away. We are staying here to LIBERATE THIS CITY from the socialists….’ The Trump administration is vowing to get rid of the democratically elected government of California by using military force. THAT THREAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A COUP.”

A great idea, and better than kids in balaclavas cosplaying as resistance heroes

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

What's happening tonight is anything but law and order. Don't be deceived.

As the federal government conducts chaotic immigration sweeps across the country, the state is deploying additional CHP to maintain safety on Los Angeles highways to keep the peace. It's not their job to assist in federal immigration enforcement.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle. Don't give them one. Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

Fake emergencies to justify crackdowns-not very original

the government is intentionally manufacturing the conditions for violence against its own citizens, grim stuff

". . . and 'My Mother the Car' is considered the best written drama in television history."
