Trump’s attacks on Iran were based on vibes, not new intel, two administration officials tell Rolling Stone. “There is no intel,” one of the sources says. “The intelligence assessments have not really changed.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

1/ “The rest of the world watched in astonishment & glee as democratic leaders of the individual states, relying on the Weimar Constitution,” Hitler said, “did not hesitate to attack the Reich gov't in the fiercest way possible at public rallies, in the press & on the radio.” Gift link.

Any other states game?

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional. We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

It's good to have a plan ...

Study: Gun Deaths of Children Rose in States That Loosened Gun Laws "Firearm deaths of children &teenagers rose significantly in states that enacted more permissive gun laws after 2010 Supreme Court ruling...In states that maintained stricter laws, firearm deaths were stable after the ruling"

Last night President Biden, who has Stage 4 cancer, flew on a commercial plane from DC to Texas for a Juneteenth celebrations. Meanwhile the current president, who has Stage 4 Bigotry, Posted on social media implying that Juneteenth shouldn’t be a holiday.

I asked ICE where the “413% increase in assaults” justification for its officers using masks came from. They didn’t answer. So I dug into it, and what I found … did not boost their argument. Gift link: wapo.st/4l7a1ch

Juneteenth went uncelebrated by the White House. That alone says everything you need to know about this regime.

Nothing happening in this country is normal. It’s just one disgusting thing after another with Trump and his pathetic MAGA bootlickers. Artist: Teresa Burns Parkhurst. #NewYorkerCartoons

And then after arrest....Allow FRIGGIN DUE PROCESS.....

Hegseth is asked if Trump has given the order to shoot at unarmed protesters. Pete Hegseth: "What is that based on?" @slotkin.senate.gov: "...on Trump giving that order to YOUR predecessor...he had more guts and balls than you...he wrote that in his book, that's not hearsay…"

With masked federal agents swarming our cities, would you feel safe if you couldn’t verify who’s behind the badge?

🤣 you talking about how this kid, who isn’t even shaving yet, in charge of counterterrorism, doesn’t make you feel SAFE…🧐

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

They’re cranking up the propaganda machine again: claiming Brad Lander “unlawfully interfered” and that ICE is just “enforcing Trump’s policy.” Reality: Lander stood up for civil rights. ICE’s conduct reflects a deeply troubling use of federal power.

For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from:  -Sinking poll numbers -A devastating (and unpopular) budget bill -Harmful trade wars  -Unleashing the military on American soil -Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism We must remain on high alert.

Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣

“There weren’t any campaigns that had failed after they had achieved 3.5% participation during a peak event,” says Harvard political scientist Erica Chenoweth – a phenomenon she has called the “3.5% rule”. Numbers + Momentum = Regime Change #NoKingsDay

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

No Kings Chicago Style. We like Democracy Neat - no ICE

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

No Kings

Terrible what happened to the Dem lawmakers and their families. I am just going to leave this right here. 96% of politically motivated violence comes from the right. MAGA are a violent and hateful people. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

According to the authoritarian wannabe dictator who deployed these men, “LA is burning”. It’s not. He's the one rubbing two sticks together to try start a fire. Don't believe the narrative. Remain clear-eyed and share the truth. 🌸🌺🌻 ❤️&🙏🏼 for LA This moment of ☮️ by 🎥 @saroal on TT

Trump has ordered his DUI rapist SecDef to send the 2/7 Marines, War Dogs, to the streets of LA. C&C will not be local authority. Hegseth's model for the military is the Russian model of cannon fodder. Make no mistake the purpose of the Marines & Guard is for them to be attacked. He hates them & you

Confirmed, about a federal officer ID requirement under certain condutions- thanks to @jctheresistance.demcast.com - " (a)Requirement.—Whenever a member of the armed forces (including the National Guard) or Federal law enforcement personnel provide support to Federal authorities ...

Bill Cassidy is a fool

To all oath of office takers: This is the domestic enemy that your oath refers to. Our founders anticipated this and you have sworn an oath to our country, not a president, not a political party, not a religion. This isn't negotiable.

JUST IN: 700 Marines deployed to L.A. from 29 Palms. If Trump can override California, he can override any state. So ask yourself: who’s next? And what happens when people stop backing down? This isn’t crowd control — it’s occupation.

This is extremely bad. Not a mention, none at all, of any statutory obligation (which he has) to issue any orders through the state’s governor. It looks like he’s just doing the insurrection act without actually going to the trouble of invoking it.

I'd like to see veterans groups organize to protect and/or hide the Afghans and Iraqis who once protected us

Remember, long before colonists arrived, North America was already occupied by a rich and beautiful Indigenous culture of incredible people. These beautiful people belong here in America!!

Your safety is the top priority. Peaceful protesters have already been harmed for doing nothing. The story they’re selling isn’t legit. Please film everything, document everything.

This isn’t even remotely legal what he is doing.

It's the Washington Monument in the background that really takes this to next-level dystopian

ICE forced to barricade themselves inside the federal building in Los Angeles until LAPD could intervene and rescue them from the brave crowds standing up to the regime.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.
