Idk wtf that means, but excuse me while i raise a glass to their embarrassment and misery. 🥂
an easy disguise: all you’d need are some black masks
ICYMI: U.S. Marines guarding a federal building in Los Angeles temporarily detained an Army veteran who said he was rushing to get to a Veterans Affairs appointment, the first time federal troops have detained a civilian since they were deployed to the city this week.
😡😡😡😡
Picking radishes is no easy task. Efrén spends 8-10 hrs/day on his knees, picking and sorting the radishes into small bunches to fill dozens of crates a day in CA's Ventura County. He's proud to have worked in America's fields for 49 years. #WeFeedYou
Gnight, all. We ride at dawn. Let’s make tomorrow one for the history books.
"[Troops] have told friends and family members they are deeply unhappy about the assignment and worry their only meaningful role will be as pawns in a political battle they do not want to join." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Sen. Alex Padilla was just removed from Kristi Noem's press conference in Los Angeles (video: Bill Melugin/Fox News)
This is equal parts disturbing and terrifying.
PASS IT ON:
If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline.
There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487
Fake emergencies to justify crackdowns-not very original
“If you haven’t been poor, don’t legislate for the poor.” - Rep Lateefah Simon, CA-12
Trump cut staffing at the VA, and now Dallas vets are waiting months for care.
Surgeries are being delayed. Vets are being left without mental health care.
I’ve called for an investigation—because if you claim to support veterans, act like it.
Sure would be a shame if all these tickets were tickets claimed, and very few people showed up for the fascist parade. H/T: @muellershewrote.com

I signed a bill today to expand access to voting.
SB 5077 allows automatic voter registration services, like our "motor voter" law, to expand to state agencies that collect a person's name, residential address, date of birth, affirmation of citizenship, and signature.
Gutting.

In one email to Veterans Affairs HQ, doctors in Pennsylvania said a hiring freeze was causing “severe and immediate impacts” and that more than 1,000 veterans would lose access to treatment for cancer, kidney disease and traumatic brain injuries.
A reminder: Both sheriffs and local police have the right to refuse ICE detainers. These requests are voluntary and not legally enforceable under federal law. Across the country, many sheriffs and police departments choose not to cooperate and that choice is fully within their legal rights.
Trump and the GOP have wrapped themselves around the flag of veterans for years.
But they prove time and time again that they don't give a shit about the people who served this country.

NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.
Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.
This story is haunting me.
Why is ICE over 900 miles from the border?
Why are they operating without uniforms or badges?
How do we know that these aren't just deputized Proud Boys or other MAGA militia?
Where's the oversight? The accountability.
I fear we have crossed the Rubicon with this one.
Take a minute from your day and read this chilling story about how quickly we've gotten to where we are.
I introduced an amendment today to prohibit any taxpayer dollars from being used for Secretary Hegseth's makeup studio at the Pentagon.
Every single one of my Republican colleagues on the House Armed Services Committee voted against it. Every. single. one.
Thank you Greyhound!
20 ARMED men bust into your home. They claim they’ve got a search warrant.
They make you stand in the rain w/your 3 daughters in their underwear.
They seize your phones, laptops, your cash life savings.
The suspects listed on the warrant? They don’t live there anymore.
