President Trump tells White House reporters if there are protests in DC against his military parade Saturday they "will be met with heavy force."

really confused about whether Johnson thinks he’s for or against violent mob action towards government officials

Pete Hegseth is blatantly filibustering budget-related questions he's getting from Democratic House members

Let’s be clear: These agitators aren’t misguided allies. They’re not here for immigrants, they’re not here for justice. They’re here to sow chaos. Every brick they throw, every fire they set, hands trump & his followers more fuel. They’re intentional, coordinated & calculated. #Peace

“Trump is using military forces to stop a protest — I want y'all to consider what kind of government it appears to be when every time we exercise our democratic right to protest, the military is deployed against us.” Doechii at the #BETAwards

The fact that the State Department is planning to open an Office of Remigration didn't get even anywhere close to the attention it deserved. Remigration is explicitly a European far-right/neo-Nazi word that in Europe refers quite explicitly to ethnic cleansing beyond simply immigration enforcement.

"Whereas cities, to the fascist imagination, are the source of corrupting culture, often produced by Jews and immigrants, the countryside is pure." - Jason Stanley, "How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them."

FUN FACT: When fascism came to America all of the 2nd Am. ammosexuals stood all the way the fuck down. Not a peep out of the “don’t tread on” me crew. Not a word. It was the uber liberally hippy avocado toast betas of California who stared down the GESTAPO and said “not the fuck on my watch!”

RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process. So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel. Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

New in PN: ABC is too cowed to state the obvious about Stephen Miller "Miller and Trump are hateful bigots. Independent journalists can still say that. Journalists at ABC can’t, because the president gets a veto over their coverage. That’s not democracy and it’s not a free press. It’s fascism."

Watching the right now oppose the part of the second amendment that guarantees a well regulated militia under state control is… something.

"U.S. job growth over the first five months of 2025 is the worst since the Great Recession. When Donald Trump says the economy is 'booming,' he’s wrong..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

What’s pretty wild as far as reporting goes; the rest of the JCS was not consulted, none of the marine corps leadership was consulted, nobody on the NSC was consulted; like Miller, Noem, and Hegseth seem to have just unilaterally made a decision to deploy marines to an American city

If you don't understand oligarchy, it goes like this: if you have a home, oligarchs want it. The '08 econ crash took 5.1 million homes frm people & gave them to Wall St banks who created the crisis. Now oligarchs want your small business. Tariffs will ☠️ you & oligarchs will buy & take market share.

I look forward to Stephen Miller being tried for his crimes against humanity--along with Tom Homan and Kristi Noem--and receiving the most severe penalties allowed by law.

Little secret. It doesn't matter if protestors remain nonviolent or not. Fascists don't care. They will just say you were violent either way to "justify" what they were already going to do anyway. All of this was explicitly spelled out in #Project2025. And now, here we are.

All of this has happened before. All of this will happen again.

“His campaign asked voters to overlook the connection entirely—an implausible ask—which only succeeded in making him seem oblivious to overwhelmingly obvious optics.” abovethelaw.com/2025/06/pam-...

JUST IN: A federal judge in New York has ruled that the Trump administraiton's rush to send federal employee data to DOGE was a "breach of law and trust" that violated the Privacy Act and cybersecurity protections. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

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

This is a reasonable suggestion. Anyone who wants to be a Democratic leader should be willing to be in LA now. And I don’t mean with a TV crew, or behind a lectern, or giving interviews, but simply to stand with the community and engage in congressional fact-finding. And to tell any reporter that.

This is on all the Senators who turned a blind eye and voted to confirm. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/h...

So sick of these gang members working difficult jobs and paying tens of billions of dollars in federal, state and local taxes for decades. You just know they're biding their time, then WHAM they'll start doing gang shit when they're senior citizens and whatnot.

Law enforcement is violently targeting press at protests around Los Angeles, from easily recognizable "mainstream" outlets to freelancers and independents. ALL press have explicit legal protections in California. #JournalismIsNotACrime. This evidence thread may get graphic. 🧵👇

Wow. Rachel Maddow on MSNBC tonight: “Trump has no idea what to do with the sustained and growing and intractable and indominable protest and opposition of the American people against him. Game over, big guy. You lose."

Fucking priceless. Elon implanted a fraudster at DOD, HE's the guy who claimed there were NSA intercepts showing Whiskey Pete's reliable aides were behind the leaks. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Trump doesn’t give a crap about the health and safety of the National Guard. It’s a photo op for a man addicted to power and chaos.

Bingo!

No ambiguity. He just straight-up shot this reporter.

The American military that has been deployed to liberate so many people is now being deployed to oppress Americans

I’m not sure why Gavin Newsome doesn’t activate the rest of his army guard to prevent the president from it or force him to overrule it…. Then fight on the second amendment guaranteeing a state a right to a militia. How can a state have a militia if the president can simply federalize it
