Bass: If you want to go back in time, where was LA on Thursday? Fine, peaceful. Nothing was happening. The minute ICE rolled into town, that's when the chaos started and then add to that—bringing in federal troops.

The President of the United States is advocating for arresting the duly-elected Governor of California for his SPEECH He thereafter admitted that the Governor of California had committed NO CRIME—but he still wants him arrested Spend as much time as you need processing what that means for America

A dear friend on FB posted this. I feel the same.

Sad but true.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

I thought I knew how bad things would get. I was wrong. This is dangerous and irresponsible

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

This stuff doesn’t look very protect-and-serve-y

You need all hands on deck, full-scale resistance. Every institution, every organization, every sector needs to speak out and resist Trump's fascist regime. Each act of resistance causes a crack in the regime, slows down the machine, and eventually...with time...they will collapse.

He wants unrest. He wants a civil war. He wants to be able to rule by military decree. And he is arranging things to get it.

Today, our client Rümeysa Öztürk was released on bail from ICE detention in Louisiana, and she will return to New England to continue her studies. 📸 Giancarlo D’Agostaro

Listen as he speaks out.

If your response to this video is, “That’s what I voted for”— Fuck you. Fuck you very much. You’re heartless.

So much this…

Brave NIH employees have written and signed the Bethesda Declaration, outlining the ways in which Director Bhattacharya is failing science and scientists. They exhibit more courage than any Republican in Congress. apnews.com/article/nih-...

Newsom addresses Trump directly: "Where's your decency, Mr President? Stop ... it's immoral. You're creating the conditions that you claim you're solving."

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

A reminder that January 6 insurrection was invited by the same criminal who is inciting and creating manufactured chaos throughout the United States today. He should’ve been sent to jail for several lifetime sentences, not sent to the White House.

Mr. Authoritarian President, why weren’t you as interested in upholding “very strong law and order” during the insurrection on the Nation’s Capital as you are now in LA? Was your inaction then a result of your having incited the insurrection? #WeMustImpeachTrump!

ICE crossed a line in LA

SWAT shoot at a woman for filming them.

WTF is going on!

When President Johnson activated the Nat'l Guard in Alabama in 1965 over Gov. Wallace's objection he did it to protect protesters advocating for voting rights for Black people who had previously met violence at the hands of state troopers. Very different situation.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social

The wear of the nametape for soldiers engaging in operations with their units is not optional under AR 670-1. If you see National Guard soldiers without their nametapes, ask them who ordered the 670-1 violation.

This is true.

The fires are so extensive across Manitoba, Saskatchewan & Ontario currently that there are not enough air crafts to rescue remote Native Canadians. I am sending an SOS to every nation to help save the lives of people who are going to burn alive. Literally. Canada needs evacuation assistance.

When Joe Biden did stuff like this, Fox would play the clips over and over like it was as significant as the moon landing

I think we’ve found the source of the violence

They’re going nuts 😂

To anyone who wondered, what could go wrong if we elected as president a highly volatile, deeply dishonest, simple-minded cretin with a revenge fetish, the answer is THIS. All of THIS.

Every word is true.

Is this just kind of like repeat it until you believe it yourself? Your boss pardoned everyone who assaulted law enforcement on January 6th. Ass!!!

We were warned. People chose to ignore it. Now this is our reality.

Sen Bernie Sanders (I-VA) just now on CNN: "We have a President moving this country rapidly into authoritarianism. He's suing media who criticize him. He's going after law firms that have clients who were against him. He's suing universities who teach courses he doesn't like"
