Newsom: 175 billion in the bill that was just signed to reinforce the ranks of ICE for what is increasingly becoming self-evident a private army for Donald Trump. Owing an oath only to him, not the constitution

Ukraine’s new Flamingo (FP-5) cruise missile, 3,000km range, 1,000kg warhead, can hit all major Russian bomber bases and vital oil refineries. Panic in Moscow is rising, with estimates suggesting Ukraine may already have hundreds, if not thousands, in stock. #StandWithUkraine

I can’t believe how insane this redistricting thing is. There is no Historical precedent for a president calling a governor and saying you need to get me five seats. We are now in a literal arms race for the House of Representatives. Trump knows what he’s doing is not popular and he knows this is….

The Democratic Party needs to assert itself. We need to be strong again. Strength matters. People want conviction. They want character. They want a sense of intention and purpose…

The reason politicians want you to live in fear of everything, is so when they want you to buy something, you will, and then they want you to die for something, you’ll sign up, and when they take power and control from you, you’ll say that it’s just for the best. They aren’t scared. They’re abusers.

Migrants can't answer back.
They have no voice.
So they make the perfect scapegoat for the pent-up rage of the angry, self-loathing far right who can unite around this issue.
In addition it gives the media something to write about in the long summer recess.
That is what is really going on here.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the level of evil you have to be to entrap and arrest a 16yo disabled kid who works for you for taking food out of the trash slowly over time INSTEAD OF saying, "hey kid, what's going on? How can I help you?"

Earlier today, ICE tried to break into private property in Lynwood, California — no judicial warrant, no authority. Acting like thugs, not federal agents.
Spoiler alert: Lynwood does not play. This trio of goons got sent packing.
