i've been trying to see what the right wing platforms (even outside of X) are showing people regarding the protests in LA and i am not sure it can be overstated just how much the AI slop is being used to reinforce the idea that downtown is a post-apocalyptic war zone

Pope Leo’s first US episcopal appointment, San Diego’s Bishop-designate Pham, a Vietnamese refugee, invites priests and faith leaders to “stand in solidarity”with migrants at courthouse on June 20, as they make court appearances.

No! 😞 "Duet" is one of the best episodes of Star Trek ever, maybe one of the best episodes of TV ever. This is a hard loss.

So legit "federal immigration authorities" are running around in shorts and white sneakers now? And have absolutely atrocious gun stance training? Lemme see your papers, "authorities."

I don't think we need to tear ourselves apart debating the "peaceful" protest thing: 1. Don't go to demonstrations with the intention of initiating violence, but 2. Recognise that police (& now military) sometimes will & then blame us for it 3. No amount of compliance with 1, will prevent 2

Chris Van Hollen: “Governor Newsom is stepping up to meet the moment. I support the actions that he’s taking because he’s pointing out that the president is abusing his office in the sense that he is throwing gasoline on the fire.”

I will add to this when you are talking to someone who is upset about the violence, whether in good faith or not, don't defend it so much as place the blame on the government for escalating and not knowing how to deescalate and shift focus to the peaceful protesters, the origin of protests, etc.

Newsom’s speech wasn’t aimed at libs like us it was aimed at Joe sicpack who doesn’t know anything and wants The Bad Thing in the teevee to go away He, in my view successfully, shifted the blame for The Bad Thing onto Donald Trump

This is my friend's video from Santa Ana, CA in OC. The Santa Ana PD had this situation totally under control. It was peaceful. Then ICE came in to provoke & attack. ICE is a terrorist secret police Gestapo-style band of thugs, posers, mercenaries & miscreants Speak up Call Congress: 202-224-3121

ICE pretended to arrest a 21 yo in order to force her to call her undocumented mother to come leave the house (where she was safe from ICE arrest) to care for her baby. When the mother came, she was abducted and the daughter was suddenly of no interest to ICE. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

Seconded. Dooming is a social contagion. Indulging in it creates permission structures for others to do so. Don't do it.

Guys, remember that you are all not really accustomed to facing an American government actively devoted to treating you as a conquered foe to torment. You are traumatized, and they are hammering your trauma because they want to keep you hurting, fearful and disillusioned. Be kind to yourself.

What Trump did at Ft. Bragg today was a propaganda exercise and I would be real hesitant to extrapolate anything from it, lest you fall prey to the propaganda yourself.

Worth pointing out that, under AARP v. Trump, decided a couple weeks ago, a failure to rule on a mega-time-sensitive TRO request like this can be considered a constructive denial of an appealable order.

Republicans built a messaging bill with a trap for democrats: don’t vote against anti-semitism, or vote to express gratitude to ICE. Except the trap wasn’t for Dem house members, it was for all of us. Every fucking second we spend slamming our own side is one we don’t spend fighting fascists.

Homan backing down on the Newsom arrest threat even after receiving Trump's public blessing to follow through should tell you everything you need to know about these people. Call their bluff. Stand up to them. The "TACO" stuff is cringe but they really are incredible cowards, all of them

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III, and I count at least 15 of them that Donald Trump has also committed in whole or in part. Particularly notable right now: "He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures."
