🧵 1/2 US citizen tackled by ICE in downtown LA—for filming them harassing street vendors. They pinned him face-down, punched him, & then left him seizing on the street. When his family tried to intervene, they were shoved & threatened. The man never touched an ICE thug. Video in 2 parts

Trump tells Congress that Iran had nuclear weapons program, contradicting US spy agencies reut.rs/46adLET

NEW: Read the whistleblower letter that proves Trump's DoJ intentionally defied court orders and lied to Judge Boasberg in the Alien Enemies Act Proclamation case. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-eviden...

NEWS: Stephen Miller owns a six-figure stock in Palantir, a company profiting off deportations, per @POGOwatchdog report migrantinsider.com/p/stephen-mi...

Trump discovers the Middle East. His announced cease-fire, broker by Qatar, does not seem to be holding up.

Trump is boasting about peace while the missiles are still flying

Let that number sink in: *80* percent of Louisiana's death sentences between 1976 and 2015 were later reversedā¬‡ļø

ICE has imprisoned the wife of a Marine veteran who was still breastfeeding a 3-month-old baby because her *mother* failed to attend a hearing in 2018 apnews.com/article/ice-...

The Supreme Court just ruled that Trump can deport people to countries they’re not from. He can now deport you to a gulag in Russia or Saudi Arabia if he wants to.

BREAKING: In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court allows Trump to resume deporting migrants to third countries with minimal notice. Justice Sotomayor dissented, criticizing the Court for rewarding lawlessness and undermining due process. From: @jaknutson.bsky.social‬

according to conservatives on the court, the constitution does not protect your right to your own body but does enable the government to ship you off to a foreign gulag without any hope of return

Trump is screwing up people’s vacations

😳😳

Congress passed a law to place a plaque in the Capitol honoring the officers who protected the transfer of power, Members of Congress and VP PenceĀ on Jan 6.Ā The plaque is complete and long overdue for display. But Speaker Johnson is leaving it in a dark closet.

I wrote about the cruel farce that is Josh Hawley pretending to defend Medicaid & SNAP. Missouri’s failure to administer SNAP under *current* law is the subject of a 3 year lawsuit. Medicaid is also a mess. Hawley knows we can’t handle more red tape w/o dropping many more eligible people:

Two-thirds of Americans say Donald Trump has definitely or probably committed crimes today.yougov.com/politics/art...

One of the major reasons the Bush Administration and neocons were able to lead US into the disastrous War on Terror and lie to the public was due to journalists and commentators who parroted the propaganda and beat the war drums.

Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization? Rubio: That’s irrelevant Host: No, that's a key point Rubio: No it’s not… Forget about intelligence

UPDATE: Iran has just voted to close the Strait of Hormuz. (Higher prices on everything loading) nypost.com/2025/06/22/w...

ā€œThere is no intelā€ JFC www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

HIMES: ā€œI had not seen any intelligence as a member of the gang of eight to suggest that Iran had taken the decision to build a weapon. I don't think there's any intelligence out there that suggests that that's true.ā€

Trump’s attacks on Iran were based on vibes, not new intel, two administration officials tell Rolling Stone. ā€œThere is no intel,ā€ one of the sources says. ā€œThe intelligence assessments have not really changedā€

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

By the way, the US striking Iran’s nuclear facilities and infrastructure gives Russia the green light to strike Ukraine’s nuclear facilities & infrastructure. This is another reason it’s forbidden under international law. Trump is escalating danger everywhere.

A president bombing a foreign country without congressional approval is ILLEGAL.

Trump has unilaterally conducted illegal strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities and therefore started a war between the United States and Iran on behalf of the Israeli government without authorization by the congress, in opposition to the constitution and congressional war powers.

Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon.

AOC: ā€œIt is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.ā€

Per CNN’s @mkraju.bsky.social: Top Dems on House and Senate Intel Committees were not briefed on Iran attack

"Trump has spent the last five months vowing that the Ukraine-Russia war would never have happened if he was president, vowing that the Israel-Gaza war would never have happened if he was president. And yet the reality is that not only has he not avoided war, but he’s plunged us into a new one."

An act of war weeks in planning but unauthorized by Congress against a country that Trump's own director of intelligence testified under oath was not close to getting a nuclear weapon.

As far as broken norms, Trump ordering this strike, without Congressional approval, given the US has not been attacked, is unconstitutional.
