I know data. What controls are used in handling this data? The cascading effects of this incompetent, conspiratorial & lawless administration has irreparably harmed our nation. I don’t have the words to express how bad this is and the precedence it sets. www.cmadocs.org/newsroom/new...

@padilla.senate.gov: "Imagine what they are doing to a lot of folks who may not feel free to speak up... and there's not cameras there to capture how they may or may not be treated. That's the big takeaway. This should be a wake up call for everybody across the country."

The American government will protect you from imaginary enemies while they watch you die from no health care, no affordable housing and no reproductive freedoms—while you work 50 hrs a week, at $7.25/hr, to survive a 40yr high inflation, as you witness a genocide, on a planet that’s burning. #1!

This ICE agent tells an immigration attorney of her three clients: "I'm not picky so I'm giving you the options cause I have to take one. If not I'll take all." He is quite literally saying that ICE is simply deporting people at random to meet a quota. www.instagram.com/reel/DKzbcQe...

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

The “Big Beautiful Bill” incudes a retroactive provision limiting federal judges' enforcement of contempt orders. That tips the balance of powers & erodes our Constitutional system of checks and balances. Tell the Senate to vote NO! on enforcement restrictions. @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvva.bsky.social

Looking at the birds in my backyard and hearing them chirp. Feels normal. Then I realize we’re living in complete chaos and have devolved into fascism and a police state is being unleashed as the U.S. military is being used against U.S. citizens. Please don’t stop rising up to squelch this evil.

Senator Alex Padilla is one of the most decent people I know. This is outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful. Trump and his shock troops are out of control. This must end now.

Are we really fucking doing this. Had nothing happened to Senator Padilla at all, what she was describing is a federal takeover of a major city by military force with no specified end-date, with no legal authority. Do not let the fascists talk their way out of that.

RFK Jr now going after ALL vaccines. He argues that the Covid vaccine (which he’s restricted) was the only one that had proper safety testing. He says they “dysregulate the immune system”. Get your boosters. He’s setting the stage for “natural immunity” where only “the strong survive” Eugenics.

Agree on both points. 1) States control most criminal prosecutions. Calif state charges for physical assault OF A US SENATOR in state's biggest city. 2) Dems in US Senate need to stand up on this one. This didn't happen even in days Faubus/Wallace/Maddox/Bull Conner resisted fed authority in 60s
