Is it too late to give Sacha Baron Cohen an Oscar for this? Not a damn lie told. 🇺🇸

As our nation girds for possible Iranian terrorist attacks, this is the person Trump put in charge of terrorism prevention. 22 years old. Recent work experience: landscaping/grocery clerk. Never worked a day in counter-terrorism. But he’s a BIG Trump fan. So he got the job.

Just to be crystal clear: bombing Iran is completely illegal.

Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon. Iran did not have a nuclear weapon.

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

#ProudBlue California just took a bold step for accountability and democracy. The “No Secret Police Act,” intro'd by Senators Scott Wiener and Jesse Arreguin, ensures all law enforcement: local, state, and federal, must show ID and never hide behind masks. www.latimes.com/politics/sto...

I started a form to collect tips about police misconduct toward press at ICE protests in Los Angeles. Press rights groups are working to hold police accountable & restrain use of force. Evidence helps!! Thank you for 50+ incidents identified so far. This community rocks. forms.gle/rTiL1VYUfGCV...

Yesssssss… I love this 🙌🏼

Palm Springs USA!

Who else nearly fell out of the seat when you heard Cosplay Kristi accuse Sen. Padilla of “political theater”?

Today I watched as my colleague, @padilla.senate.gov, was shoved and handcuffed by Trump officials. I immediately went to the Senate floor to respond. This is what I said: youtu.be/h40tBBFkiq4?...

We are marching to Senator Thune’s office. There must be accountability for the detainment of a Senator. This is not normal.

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Really important story - army officials asked soldiers to identify themselves if they don't agree with Trump's politics that way he'd get only supportive soldiers in uniform during his political rally on base. Heavier soldiers were also barred from participating.

BREAKING: LA solidarity protesters in Austin are occupying JJ Pickle Federal Building, which houses local ICE processing center

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

Incredibly chaotic scene Los Angeles as LAPD is pushing forward a skirmish line and violently arresting anti-ICE protesters. You can also hear me grunt when police shoot me in the abdomen with some kind of projectile.

This is the spirit of Los Angeles. This is California. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. #FreeDavidEndRaids

All along its goal was to gain access to critical government information and personal data to sell it off to the highest bidder.

We’ve been in touch with local law enforcement in LA. They have the resources they need to meet the moment, and we stand ready to assist should the need arise.   There is no emergency and the President’s order calling in the National Guard is unnecessary and counterproductive.

Not a single tweet in defense of Trump from JD Vance after Elon called for Trump to be impeached and for Vance to take over. Pretty telling...

One of the greatest deceptions of our time is the false narrative that we should be more concerned about a poor person misusing the welfare system or an immigrant being here illegally than we are about the ultra wealthy abusing the system and cruel people having unchecked power over all of us.

While Americans are reeling from the House vote to gut Medicaid, Medicare and SNAP, there's a hidden landmine buried in the bill that could destroy what's left of our democracy. This tiny provision would remove the judiciary’s capacity to hold officials in contempt and enforce judicial orders. 1/3

The rule of law is all or nothing and must apply equally to everyone. If there's no rule of law for some people in America, then there's no rule of law for any of us.

This is America.

TANK vs TESLA "We've crushed fascism before and we'll crush it again" - ⁠WW2 veteran Ken, 98, in the tank

What in the hell??? Sister gets AI generated model of her dead brother to give **victim impact startment** in court. Accused gets 10 years, and the judge applaued use of AI. Arizona—> www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Trump is cutting the entire $200M National Endowment for the Arts budget while throwing himself a $90M birthday party with tanks in the streets.

20 ARMED men bust into your home. They claim they’ve got a search warrant. They make you stand in the rain w/your 3 daughters in their underwear. They seize your phones, laptops, your cash life savings. The suspects listed on the warrant? They don’t live there anymore. kfor.com/news/local/w...

This is a new image from #JWST. The bright points with spikes are stars in the Milky Way. Everything else is a galaxy. Everything. Else. Is. A. Galaxy.

Senator Tammy Baldwin's @baldwin.senate.gov statement on the arrest of Judge Dugan (posted elsewhere):

Donald Trump is auctioning off presidential face time to the biggest investors in his personal crypto coin scheme and using the White House for personal profit. Despicable. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-c...
