Did any federal officials face repercussions for assaulting Senator Padilla? Photographer captures Sen. Alex Padilla's takedown - Los Angeles Times share.google/HKB2JShoOcR3...

A masked man in an armored vehicle, dressed as if he is in the middle of a war zone, training a weapon on unarmed protestors. This is simply incompatible with democratic expression.

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1971: Joetha Collier, an 18-year-old African American honors student, is shot and killed by a white man in Drew, Miss. The senseless killing took place less than an hour after her graduation ceremony from the recently integrated Drew High School. /1

Hundreds of ICE detainees in New Jersey on hunger strike over ‘unsafe, inhumane and unconstitutional’ conditions

NEW: Five members of the House of Representatives have asked the Department of Justice inspector general to investigate why a federal probe into a prison drugs-for-votes scheme in Puerto Rico was abandoned after the 2024 elections.

Dr. Jonathan Reiner: "The president has severe daytime somnolence. He's fallen asleep in the Oval on multiple occasions & I was concerned he might have fallen asleep at Arlington. Chronic insomnia is a severe illness. It can result in an increase in risk of dementia, decrease in cognitive effects."

“.. I raised my hands, and he asked, ‘Where’s the money?’ That’s when I realized it was a robbery. It wasn’t ICE.” @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

“Is that a roller coaster being built behind the White House?” I asked myself before remembering that, no, the real answer is an MMA ring.

This story is infuriating. The Christofascists want lawyers to decide on your health care. And they don't care if women die.

Canadian visits to Maine have fallen by more than 25%. A drop with severe repercussions for Maine’s tourism industry. With summer upon us it’s hard to see those numbers improving unless Trump alters his ill-tempered rhetoric and policies (He doesn’t care!). To fix, change Congress! #MEpolitics

The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday turned away a bid by the National Football League to move a Black coach's racial discrimination claims out of federal court and into arbitration proceedings controlled by the NFL.

Sen. Dave McCormick: "President Trump's regime-- uhm, his administration"

🚨ICE arrests & drags protester outside Delaney Hall ICE prison in Newark, NJ this morning on Day 5 of massive hunger & labor strike. "These people are human beings! They're starving! This is America God damn it!" We've been there for 5 days. SUPPORT our ON THE GROUND reporting 🔽

@hcrichardson.bsky.social Good morning Dorchester 🌞

What #torch will you pick up? This @hcrichardson.bsky.social talk with @katebarrcanwin.bsky.social really struck a chord with me. We all need to engage directly w/ our own community. I plan to "adopt" a group of young voters to guide thru primaries & midterms. And you? youtube.com/shorts/EH6Q4...

Get in loser, we're learning about our history

Pete Buttigieg is a former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, a veteran, and the 19th U.S. Secretary of Transportation. Buttigieg tells us about the Erie Canal, the engineering marvel that opened up the interior of the United States. #WeAreAmerica250

Andy Kim leads by example

Feel like its bad that federal officials believe they can act with impunity in assaulting a United States Senator. Late stage empire shit. www.nj.com/news/2026/05...

Well worth reading.

Also Texas races are mostly on Saturdays and this week they are TUESDAY. So between it being a runoff and on a different day, turnout will be low, which means EVERY VOTE COUNTS even more than in the original primary. www.thedailyelm.com/p/election-d... 2/2

This is Cooper. He didn't realize anyone was home. Loves singing a cappella. Just not in front of an audience. 14/10 (TT: amber023 via Storyful)

I was unaware of this, and it forced me to do a few minutes of research of my own. JFC… Listen, I understand Florida is a special kind of fucked up right there with other southern states like Texas, Louisiana, and Georgia, but holy shit. What niche specie of religious fucknut makes such a law?

in support of this post, alt text so everyone can see how much of a badass Senator Kim is: "I ran up and put myself between the ICE officers and the crowd, and that's when they started to shoot at us with the pepper balls--as well as using the pepper spray--and were tackling people."

I saw chaos inside and outside of the ICE detention center Delaney Hall today. Detainees protesting the lack of due process, the disgusting food and poor treatment while their families and advocates stood outside calling for help. 1/4

This photo of Andy Kim in the moments before ICE gassed everyone at Delaney Hall is going into the history books. We need more of this from our electeds.

The absolute bare minimum effort we *should* be seeing from electeds anywhere. “I ran up and put myself between the ICE officers and the crowd, and that’s when they started to shoot at us with the pepper balls — as well as using the pepper spray — and were tackling people."

Can’t believe that Andy Kim is in two of the most haunting pictures of the last few years.

I'm convinced most of the national debt isn't really debt. It's fraud. It's theft. It’s corruption. And the American people are the ones getting robbed. It’s the biggest financial scam in history.

1 million seconds = 11 days 1 billion seconds = 31 years 1 trillion seconds = 31,700 years The U.S. national debt grows by $1 trillion every 180 days. While you were reading this post, it already grew by millions.

“We are many — the working class. They are few — the billionaires.” Outside Delaney Hall ICE prison, a protester says billionaires divide people by scapegoating immigrants, trans people, and foreign governments — while the real enemy is the billionaire class. WATCH @jordanchariton.bsky.social ⬇️

“Their mandate is to use violence against the American people.” Outside Delaney Hall ICE prison in Newark on Day 4 of the hunger strike, a protester tells Status Coup why he doesn’t trust ICE — after agents pepper sprayed and shoved protesters earlier today WATCH @jordanchariton.bsky.social LIVE ⬇️

They pepper sprayed a Senator.

As a veteran, Memorial Day is a hard one. It's a day meant to reflect, remember, and honor those that didn't come home. To the families of the brave men and women that made the ultimate sacrifice, thank you. May they rest in peace.

The death of the 1st Amendment.

On Memorial Day, we remember and honor the service members who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country and our freedoms. Wishing you all a meaningful Memorial Day.

Again, straight from Delaney Hall in Newark NJ: ICE just tear gassed Senator Andy Kim.

It’s really frightening.

Grateful to spend Memorial Day in community in Española honoring the memory and sacrifice of those who lost everything in the pursuit of a more perfect union.

Happening now at Delaney Hall. Protesters are outside the facility demanding the release of Martin Soto, the leader that started a hunger and labor strike to protest inhumane conditions. iCE has rolled in a tank and is pointing their weapons on peaceful protesters that are forming a human chain.

STATEMENT by Gov. Mikie Sherrill: "My request for access to Delaney Hall was formally denied this morning, raising serious questions about what they are trying to hide from public view." "In New Jersey, we believe in the rule of law and that everyone deserves to be treated with basic dignity."

The way I see it, two things need to happen to save our democracy from Donald Trump: [1] Trump must be IMPEACHED and REMOVED. - Trump has to be held accountable, and not just as a formality. - We also need formal investigations into ALL members of his Executive Branch
