Trump's National Guard deployments aren't random. They were planned years ago : NPR share.google/97A05D2KUchM...

NEW: The Pentagon told journalists it will require them to pledge they won’t gather any information — even unclassified — that hasn’t been expressly authorized for release, and will revoke the press credentials of those who do not obey. @washingtonpost.com

There goes the First Amendment.

A data broker owned by major US airlines, including American Airlines, United, and Delta, is selling access to five billion plane ticketing records to the government for warrantless searching and monitoring of peoples’ movements, including by the FBI, Secret Service, ICE and other agencies

He says it low, but he says it

A Black student from Grenada, Trey Reed, was found dead hanging from a tree AG Delta State University in Mississippi. Authorities say "no foul play suspected" but that seems highly doubtful. www.wapt.com/article/delt...

Hope they don’t use this as an excuse to do anything crazy, like send the military into Democratic cities.

This makes me so sad to see what we had, and we what lost. substack.com/@oldreddrago...

Chile is one of the safest places for LGBTQ+ to reside. They have some of the worlds strongest anti discrimination laws. Green Day plays Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen right before they hit the stage. Here are 50,000 Chileans losing their shit this past weekend. #HumanRights #Chile #MusicSky

senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, former chief economist to Senator Rob Portman (R-OH) & director of budget and spending policy for Marco Rubio’s 2016 presidential campaign👇🏽

ICE arrested the husband of a Dem candidate, a disabled U.S. Army vet in a wheelchair, at his own naturalization hearing. Muhammad Zahid Chaudhry has lived here 25+ yrs, earned multiple medals, & served with Veterans for Peace. He has a green card. This is racist political persecution.

This national guard mess means we have reached the point of no return.

Authoritarianism in plain sight. Texas Rep. Nicole Collier was forced by police to hang up on a press call after being threatened with a felony arrest—for daring to speak. She can’t be in the bathroom, can’t be on the floor, can’t even talk to the press without GOP cops breathing down her neck.

“How many companies have moved 100% of their manufacturing to 🇺🇸 since Trump took office? The answer is pretty clear: Zero.”

In today's least-shocking news that we all knew before, Fox staff and producers all along the election wasn't stolen in 2020 and lied for ratings. www.mediaite.com/media/tv/fac...

Because nothing says “you should feel free to come visit Washington” like standing in front of dozens of armed soldiers next to a guy who thinks women shouldn’t be able to vote 🙃

NEWS: DNC Chair Ken Martin says TX State Rep. Nicole Collier was threatened with a FELONY charge for speaking on a press call with him, Cory Booker, and Gavin Newsom.

Vladeck: There’s one video showing a DEA officer telling a D.C. resident he couldn’t drink alcohol on his porch—D.C. law says exactly the opposite. It also highlights how these officers aren’t even trained in the laws they’re purportedly enforcing.

Gosh, turns out the things repeatedly cited for "RFK Jr makes some good points" were all bullshit, he's not doing squat about pesticides nor ultraprocessed foods, nor will he make fresh food more accessible and affordable. Huge surprise from a sociopathic con artist in a GOP admin, I know.

Yes. Yes, you are.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "I think he should start with Shreveport, Louisiana, and Speaker Johnson's district that has 6x the per capita murder rate of Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco. What about the carnage, Mr. President, in Shreveport? Why aren't you protecting the folks there? What bullshit."

Bowser: "I think I speak for all Americans -- we don't believe it's legal to use the American military against American citizens on American soil."

While Oklahoma just ranked 50th in education… 🚨 An executive session of the Oklahoma State Board of Education was interrupted when images of naked women popped up on a TV in the office of Superintendent Ryan “anti-porn” Walters—yes, that guy—during the meeting he was hosting.

If you are innocent, wouldn’t you want to clear your name and release the files?

Breaking News: The EPA said that it would eliminate its scientific research arm and begin firing hundreds of chemists, biologists, toxicologists and other scientists, after denying for months that it intended to do so.

Raise your hand if you think Trump is a monster for this! ✋🏾

Sleepy Don strikes again.

“Today it’s migrants - and tomorrow it’s you or me, or Rosie O’ Donnell. The federal government of the U.S.A. is essentially being stripped for parts by a gang of hooligans and miscreants pretending to be the good guys.”

Just found out this happened in my beloved city thanks to Rachael Maddow @maddow.msnbc.com Honestly why the even fuck? And thank you, Mayor Bass. This is Los Angeles, you will not own us.

The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 called for dismantling the NOAA, which provides warnings of natural disasters, such as the deadly floods in Texas. The irony is that Heritage wanted these cuts because it’s angry that NOAA helps prove the reality of climate change--the thing causing floods.

Tesla cars are designed to turn off its self-driving mode less than a second before a crash, so Tesla can claim that the car was not operating in self-driving mode when it crashed. Musk is evil. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US. Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them? Or just the brown people?

Reposting this one for the Fourth. Follow for more cartoons.

As we’ve reported before, ICE facilities are rife with human rights violations. Now, the Department of Homeland Security is trying to hide them, formally requiring members of Congress and their staff to give seven days’ notice before visiting immigration detention centers.

I can tell you that NONE of my Florida neighbors are happy about this.
