PEACEFUL all over USA. When Red state govs. panic and call up the guard, they show they are afraid of their own voters. The only violence comes from the horrible violence in Minn and Trump's out-of-control assault on LA. Fascism is always violent. In a democracy we settle differences peacefully.

I’m rather certain, yes definitely certain that I was promised nothing but peace and prosperity by Trump and his campaign.. How’s that going?😏

We’re bombing Houthis. Israel is bombing Iran & Gaza. Russia is bombing Ukraine. We’re threatening Greenland. When is all this peace & tranquility going to happen that Trump promised us he would accomplish on Day 1 because everyone around the world was supposedly afraid of him?

New from my investigators: Trump’s IRS nominee Billy Long appears to be implicated in court documents related to a major bribery scheme centered in his old Congressional district. The White House and FBI either didn’t bother looking into it, or they’re covering it up.

Woke Marxist Scalia.

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @deadder.bsky.social ) 🇺🇸

Trump, talking at Fort Bragg right now about Los Angeles, is doing something I'm not sure I've ever seen a president do: he's actively maligning people in Los Angeles — an American city — in front of U.S. troops. And the troops are applauding. As an Army brat myself, this strikes me as very new.

Genuinely stunned at how little we’ve heard from elected Democrats about this today and yesterday. Shocking beyond words, in a totally different class than any of the party’s many other absences and delinquencies.

Holy shit. The Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense just testified that the cost of National Guard deployment is $134 MILLION. $134 MILLION to protect a few square blocks & it’s not even working. Every taxpayer should be outraged this is what they’re spending money on.

Fuck Uber.

WaPo scores with worst headline: "Trump charts new territory in bypassing Newsom to deploy military personnel" .... unfuckingbelieveable

"If you have the courage to speak, we are saved. If you fall silent, the country is doomed." Scott Pelley had some strong words to share on tonight's CNN special after the telecast of "Good Night, and Good Luck." I wrote up the highlights here >>> www.cnn.com/2025/06/07/m...

For some reason, I was just thinking about how Trump’s former chief of staff tried to warn us right before the election that Trump was a fascist who wanted to rule us like a dictator … and the New York Times put that story on page A12

The Los Angeles Police Department has stated that demonstrations in the city have remained peaceful. Let that sink in.

Fascists want to provoke violence so they can justify crackdowns and get some good footage to distort for state propaganda outlets

A late-night split-screen on CNN: Trump attending a UFC fight on the East Coast, police lining up at an anti-ICE protest on the West Coast

There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

"It's a Yes or No Question"

If government data becomes untrustworthy, it won’t be good for businesses that need to predict tomorrow’s economy. Plus, the warehousing sector, hard versus soft data and Utah’s booming culture of entrepreneurship. Today on Marketplace.

I'm Eileen Laubacher. A retired Rear Admiral and the Democrat running against Lauren Boebert. I know what sacrifice means and service looks like. Boebert doesn’t have a clue. Can you help me get to 5k followers to show her we can do this?!

Did you know you can buy a one-on-one meeting with Trump for $5M?

A drug addict usurped congressional power, and unilaterally gutted US soft power. Members of the administration knew about, and were disturbed by, his drug use (WSJ). Isn’t this a cover-up?

I can’t believe the media covered up the fact that a clear mental incompetent was running the government while out of his mind on drugs, despite it being widely known in DC circles, to preserve their access to the White House. There should be huge recriminations for this.

And someone should write a book!

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...
