Just bananas that we have an American president who absolutely loathes America.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump directs ICE to expand deportations in Democratic-run cities, undeterred by protests.

This is what fascism looks like - using a conspiracy theory about a dehumanized outgroup as a pretext for seizing political power and wielding arbitrary authority. What you read about in the history books is happening right here, right now.

Happy Father's Day to my dad, who taught me that the most important value is kindness

i think everyone on the left should more or less aggressively grab on to the legacy of FDR's war liberalism and shove it down the throat of every fascist until they cannot breath

Just realized the turnout for my local #nokings protest yesterday (1k protestors in a town of 50k) neatly mirrors the overall estimate that 2% of the population showed up nationwide

According to the latest WaPo/Schar School poll, Trump’s handling of deportations has 37% approval, 52% disapproval. And Quinnipiac has it at 40% approval, 56% disapproval. But @facethenation.bsky.social insists “public approval is so high on deportation.”

The radicalization of the American right is THE story of US politics over the last four decades and political reporters are still not allowed to talk about it

It's literally raining on his parade. How much clearer can the Mandate of Heaven be?

Donald Trump does NOT want you to share this footage of his pathetically tiny birthday parade crowd.

this is fucking hilarious lmao

Governor Walz says State Senator John Hoffman, a Democrat, and his wife, Yvette, were also shot multiple times. The Hoffmans are out of surgery. Doctors are "cautiously optimistic that they will improve," according to another official.

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

Must be over 1000 protestors here in Wake Forest, NC (population 50,000)

These are assassinations to flip control of the Minnesota House (was 67-67) and Senate (was 34-33).

Absolutely horrifying news out of Minnesota. Political violence and assassination attempts against elected officials has no place in our society. kstp.com/kstp-news/to...

This is a shocking development. Two leading Democratic lawmakers and their spouses in Minnesota were shot in their homes early this morning by a man possibly impersonating a police officer. This is the kind of violence we have been warning about. www.fox9.com/news/brookly...

I will be protesting against the tyrannical Trump regime with my family today in Wake Forest, NC

If the proposed Congressional budget were to become law, five rural hospitals in NC could be in danger of closing: UNC Rockingham Hospital in Eden Person Memorial Hospital in Roxboro Chatham Hospital in Siler City MH Angel Medical Center in Franklin Blue Ridge Region Hospital in Spruce Pine

<thread> On the left: June 12, Judge Breyer writing that THE test for whether the US Marines/Guard violate Posse Comitatus will be whether they've engaged in "detaining" civilians. On the right: June 13: See for yourself. Note: The DoD has confirmed the detention of civilian to Reuters.

BREAKING: Reuters has published video images of Marines carrying out the first known detention of civilian in Los Angeles

A pregnant mother of four in California was shocked to see around a half-dozen vehicles carrying heavily armed, masked ICE agents outside her home Thursday morning and even more concerned when she spotted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem along for the raid.

Great summary of a horrific moment that really really really should be getting more attention talkingpointsmemo.com/where-things...

OMG. According to two members of Congress that just conducted an inspection and confirmed horrible conditions at the ICE detention center where unrest led to 4 people escaping, apparently people were able to escape because an EXTERIOR WALL was made of drywall and wire mesh!

NEW: Trump Administration Abandons Deal With Northwest Tribes to Restore Salmon The administration has canceled a deal, signed under President Biden, that would have enabled the removal of four hydroelectric dams along the Columbia River that are considered harmful to salmon. With @opb.org
