American media would fall for the fucking Mukden Incident, I swear to God.

Between LAPD and LASD there are about 36x as many sworn officers available as Marines being deployed. This is so fucking stupid.

Q: The president said that if he were Tom Homan he would arrest Gavin Newsom. Do you believe Newsom should face consequences in a legal way? MIKE JOHNSON: Um, that's not my lane. I'm not gonna give you legal analysis on whether Gavin Newsom should be arrested. But he ought to be tar and feathered.

I hate pundits who exclusively talk in meta commentary terms

I'm sorry but I genuinely believe that a white person with as Anglo a name as Kate Willett should get pigshit thrown at her for daring to accuse someone of "having bad politics" because his family comes from South Vietnam.

under Sharonismo we will draft every comedian into the climate corps

Things seemed a lot more stable and better when Joe Biden and Barack Obama and Bill Clinton were president

I will say it again, the reason I’m not a doomer is because I refuse to have my life destroyed or lose my democratic rights to people this pathetic

The more I look at the prep and legal reasoning behind invading LA, the more it looks like that the administration wants to seize supreme authoritarian power over the corpse of the republic through force of arms but also doesn’t want to do any actual work to do so. Rather surreal.

this is good

I somehow don’t feel like the press is going to cover the protests well, maybe I’m just cynical

Is it bad when the public can't tell our government security officers from criminals? It seems bad

youtu.be/9ItdzzaZw-E?... Early 90s/ late 80s anime OPs were absolute peak. Before the songs got too “pop”. One of my favorites: 銀河戦国群雄伝ライ. Massive spaceship battles, AND sword fights in space! Woohoo!

🚨I’m here with @RepLuzRivas, @RepNormaTorres & @RepLouCorrea at the Roybal Federal Building exercising our Congressional authority to investigate ICE’s inhumane detention of immigrant families—including moms & kids held after routine check-ins. No beds. No food. No water. We are demanding answers.

I haven’t watched CNN in ages and this shit is just so unbelievably grotesque. Openly pro-Trump commentators spewing nonsense and the “news” being delivered as a cheap debate and infotainment. Utter garbage.

every time they do this, our country is poorer for it.

Gavin Newsom went on TV, called Tom Homan a bitch, and said he if he wanted arrest him he knew where to find him. Maxine Waters told an ICE agent to his if they planned to shoot her they should at least shoot straight. I really don't know what you want from them right now.

Funny where hack reporters like Sahil feel comfortable editorializing about politics, isnt it?

Oh word? I wonder how many issues Republicans have placed themselves on the losing side of that are 80-20%

Okay so the Third Amendment jokes are funny obviously but there's also a deeper point, I think: Trump is more alike the exact things the Founding generation were afraid of than anything the country has faced in the interim

drives me fucking batty that elected Democrats to a man did not see coming the extremely obvious effects of local nightly news segments about ICE trying to kidnap first graders on public sentiment re: immigration enforcement

I want to report some good news from LA: ICE picked a hotel in Pasadena to be their headquarters for this side of the city. The residents of Pasadena (myself included) would not stand for this and protested all yesterday in front of the hotel until, eventually, the hotel kicked out ICE!!

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

The ongoing arrests in California of families and children obeying the law are evidence of a broader pattern of ICE’s renegade behavior across the country. The resulting peaceful demonstrations against these actions are a manifestation of understandable fear in our communities.

The real enemy of this administration is cosmopolitanism. Whether in Los Angeles or South Africa, multiracial pluralistic democracy is a threat to them because it means their “us or them” model of the world is wrong. So they stir up trouble on purpose and gleefully lie.

The sudden switch from dog whistling to overt racism has been…stark to witness. Just terrible for our nation.

THESE MOTHERFUCKERS

“Trump is using military forces to stop a protest — I want y'all to consider what kind of government it appears to be when every time we exercise our democratic right to protest, the military is deployed against us.” Doechii at the #BETAwards

The thing is, when there is no penalty for lying to Congress, serial liars are going to lie to Congress.

"appears to contradict" WaPo, you can just say it, RFK Jr. lied to Congress, quite openly, in fact.

my personal favorite gundam properties, in no order OG series 08th MS Team Zeta Gundam Gundam: The Origin Gundam Unicorn Gundam Thunderbolt (this rules btw) Iron-Blooded Orphans The Witch from Mercury

it is sort of fascinating that there is a direct line from the election of the first Black man to the presidency to Trumpist hegemonic suicide

Huh, every single black men I known is into anime, and TIL the ones I know online aren’t any different.

the past six months have been the equivalent of the “one week war” and we are approaching a “zeon is exhausted!” moment, i think

yeah i love waymo, way mo immigrants coming to my city

I’m telling ya’ll, Zohran might be the next Brandon Johnson but a lot of bad policy can be fixed. Normalizing sexual predators however, is an extremely difficult stain to remove.
