Mr. Fetterman, it's really this simple: you're receiving $174,000 a year for a position to which you were elected after asking people to trust that you'd be an unwavering champion for working class families. I don't give a fuck that you missed your beach trip. Stop whining and get back to work.

Perhaps everyone should repeatedly call the Mormon church and ask them if this is what they represent. If you’re Mormon call for resignation or you won’t tithe.

Senator Padilla’s office sends me this video of his take-down and detention at Sec. Noem’s press conference in L.A.

Sen. Alex Padilla: "If this is how this DHS responds to a senator with a question, I can only imagine what they're doing to farmers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country. We will hold this administration accountable."

Can confirm: this guy and sign is directly in front of Congress, and has been there for days.

Also, when I reached out to DHS about this, they sent me a statement… …Except the statement appeared to refer to an entirely different incident at an entirely different church, and referenced photos I did mention or include in my press inquiry.

SCOOP: Details about Saturday’s “No Kings” protest are under watch by domestic intelligence centers, where analysts regularly distribute speculative threat assessments among federal, state, and local agencies, according to an internal alert obtained by WIRED. UNPAYWALLED:

Every time I come to Philadelphia, I’m reminded that if you were to judge this city by its billboards, you could reasonably conclude that the entire region’s economy is, like, 90% personal injury lawyers.

I will provide an update on last night’s targeted shootings shortly: youtube.com/live/VHtHNAb...

The gunman even used a *police vehicle?!*

Law enforcement official: "When we did a search of the vehicle, there was a manifesto that identified many lawmakers and other officials." (The suspect is not in custody at this time.)

Lotta people at this Philly No Kings protest. Like, a lot.

Long synonymous with the Tea Party, tricorn hats are once again a thing at liberal protests, it seems.

Looks like @faithfulamerica.bsky.social’s Trump golden calf — surrounded by signs that say “No Kings, No Idols” — is set up here. People keep stopping to take photos in front of it.

Hello from the No Kings protest in Philadelphia. The park is already pretty filled up, and it doesn’t actually start for another 30 minutes.

The Philly No Kings protest has already grown so big that it has spilled into the street. A variety of groups, organizations and causes represented among the crowd. This woman is now leading a chant.

okay so we've got -- DHS goons handcuffing a U.S. Senator -- Marines in LA violating posse comitatus -- political assassinations in MN And that's just, like, the last couple of days

At a wonderful point in my transition where if I take a shower, brush my hair, and choose girl clothes (which is to say bare minimum presentable Mia) I can take a selfie and get like 15 blush emojis from lesbians Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

While searching for that Tiananmen article I just reposted by @miawong.bsky.social, happened upon this 'old' skeet because 11 months is a long time in regime change.

clip from the AP live stream of Padilla's remarks... "If this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers... We will hold this administration accountable."

LLMs are a vivid reminder that we already live in a planned economy. Investment is not directed by decentralized market signals, but by the conscious choices of a small group of people. www.wheresyoured.at/never-forget...

It’s not a game, dipshit.

Enten: How many people watched Gavin Newsom's speech on just YouTube alone? Over 3 million folks. Joe Rogan, his average podcast episode over the last month has averaged only 1.6 million YouTube views, so Newsom's speech.. very, very popular.

They've arrested, detained, or assaulted a judge, a Mayor, a Congresswoman, a labor leader—and now a U.S. Senator. Imagine what they'll do to you. They are counting on our fear, which is why we must be courageous. If we don't fight back, they will come for all of us.

We stan Greta.

Sen. Alex Padilla getting pushed out by law enforcement on a live feed after he tries to question Kristi Noem at her presser on a live feed in Los Angeles “I’m Senator Alex Padilla. I have questions for the secretary. Because the fact of the matter is, a half dozen... Hands off!”

Newsom: "Speaker Johnson -- his eloquence was elevated when he called to 'tar and feather' the governor of California. Very religious man. I guess that's the spirit. The word of the Lord."

🇨🇦 Morning Laugh 🇨🇦

SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

If they'll do this to a Senator, what will they do to you? The authoritarian moment has arrived in the US.

I realize it is a complex bit of rhetoric, but my position is that it is bad to have a government run by unaccountable goons.

Is it fascism yet?

This is Kristi Noem admitting that Homeland Security is currently occupying Los Angeles, not to protect citizens, but for purely *political* reasons. Yes, she really is that stupid.

Padilla: “We will hold this administration accountable”

Ah yes, nothing says “tough guy” like hiding your face behind a mask while bullying unarmed people. But this response gives me life…

Per NYT: “Israel also said that it had killed the top military leadership of Iran…Among those killed were Mohammad Bagheri, the Iranian chief of staff and Hossein Salami, the head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.”

NEWSOM: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, Putin, dictators that are weak… How weak do you have to be to commandeer the military for your birthday?“

Worker to ICE agent at a workplace raid: “And here’s my bag of f*cks.”

Every dictator falls. Every regime of oppression loses. If you want to know what side of history you’re on, ask yourself: are you honoring an oppressor? If yes—you’re already on the wrong side. History never celebrates the boot. Only those who stood against it.

May the anti-ICE movement continue to spread nationwide! This is the Los Angeles spirit your news broadcast isn’t showing…

Absolutely right.

Speak Truth......

On June 14th, we show up. Coalition members will be present at all 1,800 events nationwide, over 90,000 strong, helping monitor local conditions. Many veterans have stepped forward to support protesters, stand in solidarity, and defend our right to be heard. We thank them.
