Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

"Tearing down the White House and replacing it with a facsimile of Mar-a-Lago isn’t any less appalling because Trump cajoled companies into paying for it. Indeed, it might be worse. Funding a pet project via the coercion of private donors creates a closed loop and complete lack of accountability."
King Trump turns US Treasury into his personal piggy bank
He thinks our money is his.

“Don’t protest.” Not great when federal law enforcement leaders start directly and openly denying the existence of the literal and explicit First Amendment.
“The use of force that I’ve seen has been exemplary — the least amount of force necessary to accomplish the mission,” Bovino told @cbsnews.com Friday. “If someone strays into a pepper ball, then that’s on them. Don’t protest and don’t trespass.”
FULL STORY: U.S. District Court Judge Sara Ellis ordered Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino, who has led a series of increasingly aggressive raids across Chicago and the suburbs, to appear in her courtroom in person at 10 a.m. Tuesday. @wttw.bsky.social

Buried in a new GOP-backed Utah bill is a provision making it harder for courts to strike down future redistricting plans based on partisan bias. The stipulation, Michael Li of the Brennan Center said, is a clear attempt to tie the court’s hands. https://bit.ly/4owphkd

TRUMPSTEIN is creating his own Schutzstaffel.
Better known as the SS, a major paramilitary organization under Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party, known for its key role in orchestrating the Holocaust and enforcing Nazi ideology.
Now, it's here. In Trumpstein's Amerika.
BUT REPUBLICANS ARE OK WITH IT.

It cracks me up when Republicans cry about "the left getting RADICALIZED online", when in fact, people get radical and extremely angry after hearing a sitting president say garbage like this.

If all this was supposedly about stopping the flow of dangerous drugs into the US and "declaring war on the cartels," why close a task force whose mission is to go after cartels? www.reuters.com/world/us-scr...
US scraps Justice Department task force that took on cartels, documents show
The U.S. Justice Department is closing a task force that took on drug cartels and an office that aimed to ease racial tensions, in a reorganization that drops a plan to merge the nation's top drug and gun law enforcement agencies, documents seen by Reuters show.

a huge mass of border patrol agents, led by greg bovino, pushed the crowd of protesters and started grabbing people at random.
leading up to this, folks were just calmly standing in the grass, following isp’s orders.
multiple people detained. no clue how many.

I asked Trump's former OMB director Mick Mulvaney to acknowledge it's a lie that undocumented immigrants get ACA subsidies (they don't), and he ended the interview.
"Would you agree that not a single dime of ACA subsidies goes toward undocumented immigrants?"
"I'm not gonna do this anymore."

This isn’t about health care for undocumented immigrants – that’s already against the law.
It’s about the fact that Republicans are intentionally skyrocketing your premiums.

Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social: What are we asking for? Just don't increase people's premiums by 75% this fall. We're not asking to fix every problem in a broken health care system. We're just saying, don't make it worse.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort
