Courage is the resolve to stand up against denigration, despair, when all surround to belittle and say no.

First a Mayor. Then a Congresswoman. Now a US Senator. Trump’s administration is trying to silence their opposition. Through threats & physical intimidation . It’s not American. We stand with Sen Padilla slate.com/news-and-pol...

DHS handcuffing Senator Padilla & forcing him to the ground after he had already clearly identified himself is outrageous. This is more than misconduct—it’s systemic abuse of power, aimed at a Latino senator. The Trump admin is shredding public trust. And when trust breaks, everyone is less safe.

A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Investigations are now underway into officers and ICE agents who fired crowd-control munitions at dangerously close range. In case after case, the situation only escalated when force was used against peaceful protesters.

Mass pickets blocked ICE in the bay area. "Several hundred showed up to defend our immigrant friends, family and coworkers. Organized picket lines blocked all the entrances, refusing to let federal agents get away with abducting members of our communities." speakoutsocialists.org/bay-area-pro...

The difference is that the Jan. 6 rioters were mostly fascist white people fighting to illegally overturn a democratic presidential election and the LA protestors are mostly Black and Brown people fighting to protect their communities from this fascism

Ryan Sanchez’s buddy and fellow Nationalist Network member Greyson Arnold is threatening to be at the July 14th No Kings march in Seattle. Just like Ryan in LA, I assume Greyson will be trying aggravate and film people and generally make provocative content for their nazi propaganda.

ICE arrested Jason Carroll from CNN and they recorded ICE saying that they were arresting him because he was with the press. That is a first amendment violation. This should go to the Supreme Court and those ICE officers, Tom Homan, and Trump should all be in prison. ===================

At Fort Bragg, Donald Trump crossed a dangerous line. Where are the generals who should be speaking up in defense of the military's rules and traditions, asks @RadioFreeTom?

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

Tom Homan says he was taken out of context by a reporter when he threatened to arrest Gavin Newsom. "The NBC reporter that interviewed me is very dishonest. We did a 20 minute interview and he cuts out a little clip and takes my words out of context." Jonathan Lemire: "NBC stands by its reporting"

The folks hollering about “family values” are out here tearing families apart with unlawful ICE raids, militarized police, & the weaponization of government. All while ripping away food & healthcare from working-class families. Are the family values in the room with us?
