I gotta say, Gavin Newsom is meeting this extraordinary moment like a total f’ng badass. Do not obey in advance. Communicate often. Remain calm. Hold the line. Call them on their bullshit. Bring the facts. And push the fuck back. This is the way.

In 2024, we warned of the darkness of a future Trump dictatorship. Jailing leaders of American cities, disappearing dissenters, and using military force to harm Americans. That future is on our doorstep. But we can stop it. Don't be afraid to exercise your power and tell Trump enough is enough.

Two can play that game. #Byrna

News media coverage of Los Angeles has been so distorted it’s unrecognizable. They’re basically close-ups of anything that looks a mess, not to mention the unnecessary troops and police. It is far more dangerous here after a Dodgers win of a big game!! At best, 2-3 blocks. Maybe 150 people.

There are companies so focused on their bottom line they thought they could replace their employees with AI. They're now regretting their hasty layoff decisions. Seems that "while AI can help humans at work, it cannot replace humans at work." maarthandam.com/2025/06/09/c...

Co-sign. (I lived in L.A. my whole (long) life, til recently): "But communities don’t like to see their friends and neighbors cuffed. “These are workers, these are fathers, these are mothers...Our community is under attack and is being terrorized.”

Project 2025 playbook—Trump wants to enact martial law. It’s a set up. If you protest, keep that in mind. DO NOT GIVE HIM AN EXCUSE! Share widely...

Another win!

As you see Trump defending his decision to deploy the National Guard into LA and potentially elsewhere, just remember that he did *not* order the DC Nat Guard to protect the Capitol on Jan. 6. I debunked that lie, told by some of his prominent surrogates, here: www.justsecurity.org/93316/anatom...

Yikes

THIS was the day Trump should have called the National Guard!

Yeah, I’m still mad. But more of this, please. Much more!

He said nothing that wasn't true.

This is so cool. I love Gina.

Ukraine showed they can exploit Russian weakness with the right weaponry. Zelenskyy is unafraid. He refused to bend the knee at the WH when sandbagged. Just like he refused to make up fake stories about Biden, which got Trump impeached. Trump is a disgrace. Putin a war criminal. Zelenskyy is a hero.

More people need to speak out.

The utter shamelessness of Joni Ernst…

Important development in the Judge Dugan case!

France's President Macron has warned that abandoning Gaza and giving Israel a "free pass" will destroy the West's credibility. France is quietly in the process of creating a coalition to strip Israeli influence across Europe, the DGSE also needs to confront Mossad influence operations.

“I mean, my point of view is that I don't understand people who are afraid of Donald, because he's so pathetic," Mary Trump said.
