It's time to GET LOUD, DC. The people who oppress our communities are not welcome in our communities.

No matter where you are tonight, bring noisemakers, pots and pans, GoGo on the stereo, whistles, chants, or any other way to MAKE NOISE so Trump hears we want FEDERAL FORCES OUT NOW — FREE DC.

"Newsom’s threat to retaliate in kind is not a divisive attack on good governance. It is, instead, the only hope for democracy. Bipartisanship right now is appeasement. Democrats cannot and should not hide behind neutrality and fairness as MAGA incinerates the remaining tatters of our republic."
Gavin Newsom's moment
Democrats have found their fight. Newsom is leading the charge.

Armed Trump administration agents wearing masks just showed up outside of Gavin Newsom’s press conference.

At this point, the only reason left to support a man like this is that he reflects your hateful heart: he shares your contempt of people of color, your hostility toward outsiders, your toxic misogyny, your ignorant bigotry, and your feelings of supremacy.

No one gave a shit if a gay man was lonely navigating a homophobic society. No one gave a shit if a woman was lonely in an abusive marriage. No one ever gave a shit if the Black kid in a white school was lonely.

But we all need to care about straight white men being lonely.

Miss me with this bs.

Dozens of federal officers in tactical gear were deployed to LA’s MacArthur Park, in a neighborhood with a large immigrant population. It wasn’t immediately known if any arrests were made.

“What I saw in the park today looked like a city under siege, under armed occupation,” said Mayor Karen Bass.

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

I guess Classic Recycling is feeling guilty about doing work at the Everglades detention center. They really should have done a better job hiding their company name.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

What the actual hell?! A close Trump advisor and MAGA figure just posted, “Alligator lives matter. The good news is alligators are guaranteed 65 million meals if we get started now.” This is disgusting, it’s genocidal language. Dehumanizing, dangerous, and unacceptable. How is this even real life?

After our last report on conditions inside ICE detention centers, the latest DHS propaganda makes a chilling kind of sense now. The official DHS X account posted a WWII-style poster urging people to “REPORT ALL FOREIGN INVADERS,” complete with the ICE tip line to report undocumented neighbors.

The Supreme Court issued a stay, effectively ruling, for now, that the Constitution no longer applies, at least not to immigrants. Fast-track deportations with no opportunity for judicial review violate the fundamental principle of due process, especially for people already on U.S. soil.
