I wrote this four days ago. Today, they arrested the NYC Comptroller.

Just pure unadulterated racism on Fox:

I signed the final bills Melissa Hortman shepherded through the most narrowly divided legislature in the county. All of them bipartisan. We debated, we found common ground, and we compromised. That’s how democracy should function.

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing. Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle. Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop. (1 of 2)

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine. If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. (via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

Vaccines save lives!

God, he’s such a f*cking moron.

The cowardice of the Congressional GOP to not put guardrails on the lunatic in the Oval Office - as they are required to by oath - is overwhelming at times.

Padilla on Noem: "How does the cabinet secretary not know the senator from California when she steps foot into Los Angeles? She came through the Senate for confirmation."

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

“We owe it to ourselves to keep imagining, keep pushing, keep making sure that we have No Kings, in name or just in deed, ever again.”

I love this Native woman’s spunk! However this should NEVER have happened.

Anyone can become disabled at any time. It’s one of the few minority groups you can always join. Even if you do everything “right”. Even if you’re young and healthy. Even if you “try hard” It’s not a moral failing. It’s a part of life. Engage in disability justice.

"To celebrate my birthday, I had an 80-year-old veteran and sixty other veterans arrested for opposing my military parade."

Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣

Evil Old Man.

Kings went out of style in the United States of America in 1776. The people will peacefully make sure that never changes.

Look what I found when I searched "ICE uniform" in Google Shopping. None of us have any way of knowing if the "ICE agent" pushing you into a car, isn't just some unbalanced vigilante into cosplay. These are very dangerous times.

I would love to feel free to “take back” the flag and its association with patriotism. But as a middle-aged White woman in ruby red Texas, people would just assume I’m a run of the mill right winger.

We’ve truly lost our way in this country. An 80-year-old vet who fought for this country just got arrested protesting Trump‘s parade. He deserves respect, not handcuffs.

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

Shameful.

A woman is hospitalized and receives staples in her head after LAPD trampled her with their horses. LAPD also impeded her receiving medical attention.

They wanted max cruelty. Shock and awe for the cameras. But all they did was traumatize a bunch of poor kids who’ll never forget it. An L.A. mom, US citizen, watched as unmarked vehicles rolled up. Masked, heavily armed ICE agents, guns drawn. And Cosplay Kristi Noem right there playing warlord!

Let me be clear — chasing people through a Home Depot parking lot does not make Los Angeles safer.

People in L.A. are waving Mexican flags—not because they hate America, but because the Trump regime is disrespecting immigrants. The Mexican flag has become a symbol of resistance and solidarity in these times. Make no mistake: they love what this country stands for—just not what it’s turning into.

I still don’t understand why people can’t just come here from other countries & stay. Personally, the fraud, & waste is all the money spent adjudicating citizenship. Think of all the money we’d save & tax revenue that would generate. It’s like private health insurance companies. Like, whyyyy?

Someone said what’s happening right now in LA isn’t immigration policy—it’s regime prep Wheeeeewwwww

US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll: "If you watch the videos of the president speaking before soldiers, you can see he just has an incredible connection as commander in chief with his army." "His army."

I stand with the peaceful protesters of the city of Los Angeles. #losangeles

Thou shalt not force good horses to trample peaceful protesters and pretend thou art the good guys.

New from 404 Media: Delta, United, American etc don't want you to know they sold your flight data to DHS. The country's airlines sell bulk names and flight itineraries to DHS to be searched without a warrant. Contract tells DHS to not reveal where this data came from www.404media.co/airlines-don...

MURRAY: I want to know what's the total number of employees who left the agency as a result of the administration's personnel actions? BHATTACHARYA: We'll get those numbers MURRAY: I told you I was gonna ask for this. How come you don't have it? B: My misunderstanding M: I was being very clear
