"They took her in a car, in essence kidnapping her ... I met another young woman whose husband has quite literally disappeared" -- Newsom shares harrowing details of specific cases of ICE terrorizing immigrants in California

There’s the Kristi Noem version—then there’s the truth. WATCH: Sen. Alex Padilla’s first interview since he was forced out of a federal building press conference… for daring to ask questions.

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country. We will hold this administration accountable.

In 2018, Donald Trump, then in his first term as US president, let Iran out of nuclear restrictions in exchange for nothing. Many people, very much including me, warned that he put things on a path with only two possible outcomes: large-scale war, or a nuclear-armed Iran. And here we are.

ICYMI — @govpritzker.illinois.gov turns the tables on @laurenboebert: “I find it hard to believe you’re lecturing us about peaceful protests. Look what happened January 6th.”

Mr. @johnfugelsang.bsky.social and I discuss this on tomorrow's @dailybeanspod.com <3

Put this on a billboard.

😕

Senators are ELECTED to be a VOICE for their constituents. What happens when that voice is stifled, thrown to the ground, and handcuffed like Senator Padilla was? We have a democracy, but we can lose that democracy. I took to the Senate floor to speak out—I hope you'll join me.

When LA *is* burning, Trump watches Fox News and threatens to pull emergency funding for existing fires in California. When LA *isn't* burning, Trump goes on Fox News to announce he is spending MILLIONS on people in uniforms to pretend to stop nonexistent fires in California.

When Karoline Leavitt says the LA protesters are far different than the J6ers, what she really means is they have different colored skin.

You may have seen clips of this speech, but if you haven't yet, you really ought to watch the entire thing and then share it with everyone you know! www.youtube.com/watch?v=8slq...

You can just feel the love

UPDATE: Sounds like Trump’s rich farming and hotel buddies told him to stop his Gestapo from attacking innocent, hard to replace workers

The clip that best sums up the spirit driving the American government right now…

Trump underwater in literally every single issue. 38% approval overall. 27% approval on his spending bill. 40% approval on deportations. Musk also at 30% approval. 38% approval for RFK Jr. 35% approval for JD Vance. Nobody fucking wants any of this. poll.qu.edu/poll-release...

Oh.

The founding fathers did not live and die to see this moment. It’s time for all of us to stand up peacefully.

This is a superb speech by @governor.ca.gov just now. Clear. Strong. Simple. Direct. Angry—in a way that appeals to the best in people, not the worst. Seven plus minutes of the most effective rhetoric in response to Trump. This is how you want a leader to talk. www.youtube.com/watch?v=linJ...

Aside from the questionable conclusion of this answer, which is both stupid and dangerous, Mike Johnson was literally a constitutional lawyer before becoming a lawmaker.

Sending the Marines to shut this down is 2025's Footloose remake.

They’re trying to silence us with fear and force. But “darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.” On 6/14, we show them what resistance looks like. Peaceful, unshakable, and everywhere!

NEW: At least 38 DOGE members work, or have worked, for one of Elon Musk’s companies. Meanwhile, nearly two dozen DOGE officials are making cuts to the same federal agencies that regulate the industries that employed them.

I like this Gavin more than podcast Gavin.

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

To better prepare for this violent insurrection, Marines and the National Guard are being taught how to line dance.

We have even forgot our own founding principles.

When people said “abolish ICE,” this is why. The politicians from both parties who called that “radical,” blindly funded them and called it “immigration reform,” because they were getting campaign donations from the corporations getting ICE contracts. And now we’re here.

Aimed and shot right at her. No doubt whatsoever

What a dictator would say.

Trump’s immigration actions are a classic bait & switch. He campaigned on deporting violent criminals. Instead, he’s deporting moms with their (sometimes American citizen) kids, good neighbors & hard workers; people who pay taxes & provide the labor we need.

"Peace through strength" in a domestic setting is a means of authoritarianism. The Trump administration is manufacturing a crisis in order to give him more power. It's un-American.

"ThEyRe FlYiNg MeXiCaN FlAgS In ThE StREeTs" Give me a break Police were beat with American flags on January 6th Ohh not to mention the confederate flag being waved in the rotunda

😶

The city of Glendale, in Los Angeles County, announced today that they're quitting an agreement with ICE thad allowed ICE to house its detainees at the Glendale police department. mynewsla.com/crime/2025/0...

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Pete Hegseth's a joke. He's a joke. Everybody knows he's so in over his head. What an embarrassment. That guy's weakness masquerading as strength."

✊☮️💙🌊🐕‍🦺

"In your last conversation with Trump, what did he say?" @gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "He never brought up the National Guard. Stone cold liar. Said he did. Stone cold liar. Never did. Didn't even really want to talk about LA."

Donald Trump incited a violent mob to attack the Capitol. Hundreds of dangerous felons who brutally beat police officers with impunity were then pardoned by the President on his first day in office. Don’t ever lecture America about law and order.

My feedback submission:

"They had Mexican flags!!! People should only be allowed to to have the Stars and Stripes, not flags of a countries we were once at war with!!! They should be arrested for this!!!"

Very Well Said…..😊💙

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

Can’t shake the thought that having all this matériel in DC and provoking anti-ICE riots in LA, Chicago, and gods-know-where would make a handy little setup for declaring martial law. Meh, it’s probably nothing. 😬
