Listen to her whole speech. This is how you hold local leaders accountable. Santa Ana, CA in Orange County. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8rUXQch/

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

BREAKING: Trump’s deportation squad just got shut down at Dodger Stadium. ICE agents were denied entry and escorted out by LAPD. No raids. No fear. Just a giant L for the MAGA kidnapping machine. This is what community resistance looks like.✊ tinyurl.com/s8k9cjjw

Ice tried to get access to Dodgers Stadium today and were denied access. MLB needs to speak out on this. Reported by @aaronparnas.bsky.social on TikTok

My blocking finger is getting a workout today. Are we getting an influx of trolls?

Why does Charlie Kirk look like that?

Cheeseburgers

The president is not a king. Defy him. Defy him at every turn.

Ugh. I'm just disgusted and mad at everyone today.

All former presidents should be speaking out loudly and often in the face of this lawlessness and authoritarianism. Democracy is falling and former politicians are worried about "protocol". History will also remember those who stayed silent.

If you have undocumented neighbors, you can help. Offer to buy groceries, do their laundry, pick up needed items. Many undocumented in So. CA are staying home. Their children are doing their parents’ jobs while also attending school, working their own jobs #UnmaskICE m.youtube.com/watch?v=nfp0...

I've had four espresso shots today. Helps a little.

These guys taking care of their mom.

These tough-guy ice agents are compensating for "something else" so they enjoy cosplaying as law enforcement, cowardly targeting vulnerable ppl (majority are not gang members/criminals). The only qualifications seem to be inadequacy, small truck/big tires, and an IQ of less than 80. No sign of EQ.

Tough-guy ice "agents" who cover their faces are snatching people putting them in "detention centers" where basic human rights continue to be ignored. Some of these people have disabilities, no change of clothing, no due process. How very "christian" of the GOP to support this inhumane treatment.

😡 “They capped it at 3 million acres, but 258 million acres is on the menu,”.... "It’s a drastic change in what we could see on the ground across the West.” www.sfgate.com/politics/art...

Added to the "Big beautiful bill" is the sale of our public lands. And, who added it? Mike Lee www.instagram.com/reel/DLFS2Pa...

I can’t imagine being active duty military and being asked to go to war by someone too lazy to attend their daily intel briefing.

These young people! 💯

So unemployment up. Jobless claims up. Inflation up. GDP down. Dollar plummeting. More wars abroad. Soldiers on the streets at home. By every objective metric, this administration is a disaster.

An idea

He was also, according to him, a paying member of Oath Keepers a far right extremist nut job organization. The guy is as far right as you can get. CA, he’s not above cheating to get into the Gov office. He won’t win but keep an eye on him just in case.

Trump is an asshole.

California lawmakers are trying to pass the “No Secret Police Act” which, if introduced, would ban police from covering their faces. Do you think officers should be allowed to hide their identities from the public? Full video on Substack (free for anyone to watch).

We (the people) are doing everything we can from our end right now. We show up, protest, we contribute, we call/write our legislators, we post. We actually need to see more from elected officials. It's their job. At the very least daily press briefings to counteract the lies coming from Leavitt.

Trump runs away from the G7 within hours not wanting to sign joint statement with world leaders saying he needs to be in D.C. to handle Middle East then post for Tehran to evacuate then Tehran is hit. Trump is our biggest national security risk. www.axios.com/2025/06/16/t...

So, Donald humiliates himself at 'perade' then G7. Takes his marbles home & decides he's at War with Iran. Bonespurs using your sons/daughters to build his ego? Needs to feel tough. Very sad. #InternationalLaughingstock

Every day it's some new crime, violations of freedom, assault on democracy, dangerous foreign policy. Every day. And it's only June. 😑

I think one of the reasons you hear so much visceral anger coming from Dems about politics these days is bc for years now we’ve been expected to respond with dignity and respect (which we do) when political violence touches the GOP. But when it touches us - we get the Mike Lee’s of the world.

So the felon is rambling on about "blue cities and blue states" again. CA is a big donor state. Now is a perfect time to pull CA funding for the federal govt. See if they miss the billons in funding from CA. @governor.ca.gov

This is happening across America. Contributing members of society who are doing the right thing and showing up to immigration court are being ripped away from their families by Trump's ICE Gestapo. 🥺👇

This can’t be real. Good grief. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Another day another opportunity to embarrass the U.S. on the world stage. How is this felon allowed to travel abroad? He's a felon.

we are living in the golden age of scamming and grifting

A special shout out to those small red towns and cities who showed up to protest No Kings. In some unique ways those blue dots in small red towns and cities matter more than our very large cities here in CA. It takes courage to be those blue dots in red places. 💙

Someone called it “the parade that could have been an email” 😂😂😂😂😂

You can't teargas people into loving your policies

Please everyone, stop glorifying Rand Paul whenever he says something you agree with. He is without a doubt a traitor to our democracy as much as any repugnant member of the GOP. He voted for every Trump Cabinet nom and is all in on Project 2025. He has very diff underlying reasons for his opinions.

Just because Rand Paul is having broken clock moments doesn’t mean he is your friend, or he’s changed. He just happened to accidentally stumble on a truth the way Libertarians sometimes do.

Saw this on Reddit. This man was at a protest, I don’t know where. He’s 102.

Anyone who has ever lived in LA county will not be surprised it was the sheriff's department that escalated

Wait, they haven’t found the assassin yet? Why the hell not? Will this investigation go the way of the pipe-bomber?
