Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park.

It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I don’t even think they detained anyone.

Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.

Please pass this on to anyone who is organizing the coming Farm Strike: I think it is an important message... and makes a great poster, sign or billboard.

New from me! An investigation into the "1.5bn+ company" known as The Agora, which sells misleading health and investing advice to seniors, and which was one of Meta's largest political advertisers this year (until many of their pages went down after this story).

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.

Since 1980, there have been over 400 weather disasters in the US, with total damages over $1 billion.

These disasters have cost $2.9 trillion in total and killed nearly 17,000 people.

Don't tell me we "can't afford" to address the climate crisis.

The truth is we can’t afford not to.

There is NO WAY you can close the Epstein investigation without answering a SINGLE QUESTION about it.

That REEKS of a cover-up.

What the hell is going on at McArthur Park in Los Angeles, CA! Looks like these militarized thugs are doing some kind of federal disappearing operation on street vendors in the park. This is only going to get worse with the new bloated ICE budget. #UnMaskICE

In an interview with Democracy Docket, Illinois Gov. Pritzker said this isn’t the time to back down as Trump tightens his grip on power and Republicans passed a bill cutting healthcare and SNAP. "People are going to die because this bill passed," he warned.

The gift is bad enough on its own, but can we talk about how insane it is to use a foreign-gifted jet as *Air Force One*

Air Force One has a lot of capability that a luxury jet simply doesn’t, and that’s before we even consider the obvious spying/bugging/security concerns.

HISTORY SPEAKS:

Today in 1997 Russia and Chechnya signed a peace treaty that meant neither side would go to war ‘forever’.
In 1999 Russia staged some false flag operations and invaded, killing 100,000+
people and reducing Grozny to ruins.
You can’t trust Russia. What chance for Ukraine?

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

What the fuck are we doing here?

Rep. Menendez: "They had over 20 armed ICE HSI officers, they were heavily armed, their faces were covered, and they wearing no identification. So this is who they chose to have come engage with the mayor of Newark and 3 elected members of the House of Representatives."
