Members of Congress should be banned from having side hustles and salaries from the companies they regulate… or trading stocks in the companies they regulate… or taking campaign donations from the companies they regulate… These are all examples of corruption. popular.info/p/congressma...

“This isn’t just about protests here in L.A. When Donald Trump sought blanket authority to commandeer the National Guard, he made that order apply to every state in this nation. This is about all of us. California may be first, but it clearly will not end here.” — Governor Newsom

Remember this: be unpredictable. “Outrun, outlast… make it impossible for them to justify the cost.” They’ve already wasted $131 million. We are fully committed to peaceful demonstrations, and just as committed to protecting our communities.

LA is not a distraction. The Parade is not a distraction. The speech at Bragg was not a distraction. None of it is a distraction! All of it matters and there are millions of us that can focus on each of them. There are 257 Democrats on the Hill that can pound all of it. Just fucking fight!

Former Justice Dept prosecutor: "In Los Angeles, those crimes are going to be prosecuted. What made January 6th different is .... that it was an attempt to overthrow the democratic process"

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Hey, ‘Merika, friendly reminder: A lot of the fruit, vegetables, nuts, dairy, and meat you consume come from CA. Spoiler alert: Without low wage immigrant workers, there is no domestic ag industry, now more than ever with US farmers faces steep reciprocal tariffs around the world.

Thousands of New Yorkers march in lower Manhattan calling for ICE out of New York. Starting at Foley Square and organized by PSL, the masses have flooded the streets and are moving west. This demo is permitted but even if it wasn’t, it would be far too large for NYPD to contain.

I'm being told by eyewitnesses #ICE is waiting in hallways of #Houston immigration courts to arrest individuals when cases are dismissed due to a loophole. If you're an attorney (Spanish fluency preferred) and can volunteer time at the courthouse to help families please email [email protected]

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.

Americans know scapegoating when we see it. Authoritarians target, vilify and demonize small minority groups to whip up negative emotions and mask their own programs. It's up to the people to reject sinister efforts to dehumanize and stigmatize transgender Americans.

Fun fact about Kristi Noem is she’s been barred by tribal governments from setting foot on most tribal land in South Dakota (where she was governor) because she sucks. She’s not even fully assimilated into the society that exists within the borders of the country she longs to expel people from

He stood in front of our troops today and gave a mean spirited, partisan speech. He stood in front of our troops today and attacked Americans by name. He stood in front of our troops today and goaded them into booing their fellow Americans. Never become desensitized to this.

Connecticut stands with California today. All Americans should have their eyes on California right now and the President’s unlawful, unwarranted and incendiary abuse of the National Guard and potentially other federal troops against our own citizens on American soil.

So which is it? Things are SO bad in LA that he has to send in the Marines. But he’s only sending 700 of them. Is 700 Marines going to have any affect upon a “massive insurrection” or are they utterly useless propaganda props? We all know the answer.

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.
