The Constitution sets forth limits, and that includes the President of the United States.

Senator Alex Padilla is one of the most decent people I know.

This is outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful.

Trump and his shock troops are out of control.

This must end now.
Senator Padilla is forcibly shoved out of Kristi Noem's press briefing:

"I'm Senator Alex Padilla. I have questions for the Secretary"

Thinking about how I gentle parented my cat into dependency. He now screams at me to go and sit with him while he eats. Like, refuses to eat unless I go and sit right next to him. Will scream at me to wake up for our traditional 7 am morning cuddles. Every. Morning. Orange cats, man.

Terry Moran was the one journalist who had the journalistic integrity to challenge Donald Trump's lies to his face. ABC has now twice bent its knee before the fascist leader. Disney, its networks, studios, and parks do not deserve our patronage or respect. CBS the same. Old mass media is dead.
BREAKING: Terry Moran is out at ABC News. "We are at the end of our agreement with Terry Moran and based on his recent post – which was a clear violation of ABC News policies – we have made the decision to not renew," an ABC spokesperson says.

As of June 1, nearly 25% of the people arrested by ICE in the interior and sent to detention had NO CRIMINAL RECORD.

Data from the last six years, including 1.5 years of Trump's first term, reveals how this is completely unprecedented. It also helps explain the growing backlash.

It is completely unlawful for ICE to turn away members of Congress like this. The law could not be more clear; no member of Congress may be denied access to a facility where ICE is detaining someone, and they cannot be required to schedule in advance. Surprise inspections must be surprise.
If ICE were acting entirely within the law and maintaining good conditions in all its facilities, they would not be turning Congresspeople away.

But they clearly aren't.

Newsom responds to Homan statement on possibly arresting him: He's a tough guy. Why doesn't he do that? He knows where to find me. Lay your hands off four year old girls that are trying to get educated. Come and arrest me. Let’s just get it over with tough guy. I don’t give a damn

In itself it's not the biggest thing but Congress specifically passed a law requiring ICE to allow access to members of Congress because of Trump's antics in the first term. This isn't even norms. It's violating black letter statute law.
And here in NYC today another shocking escalation by Trump.

The law *explicitly allows* unannounced visits by congressmembers to federal facilities.

This is yet another breach of democratic norms by an increasingly rogue administration. Don't normalize this.

You can bet DJT is thinking a lot about what’s happening in South Korea.

We are witnessing the spread of fascism and nationalism.

It’s an energetic principle called “resonance.” The energy grows stronger when a similar activity occurs.

It’s how cults rapidly build.

Stay alert. We must resist.
