Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers.

Easy money, no risk.

Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime.

@jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment.

Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off.

📌 It’s on us citizens to stand up for our vulnerable brothers and sisters.

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

You know how crazy it is to be like "I hate Black people so much that I am going to work a double shift"
when you’re so racist you don’t let your workers have a day off for a holiday recognizing the end of slavery

That small stretch of protected bike lanes on Wabash have made a WORLD of a difference. Totally transformative, and successfully curbing the wild double parking that used to happen.

Now do the rest.

Ken Griffin paid to make this happen.
cnbc.com CNBC @cnbc.com · May 9
Billionaire Ken Griffin, founder and CEO of the Citadel hedge fund, said working class Americans will bear the brunt of President Donald Trump’s punitive tariffs on U.S. trading partners.
Billionaire Ken Griffin calls tariffs a 'painfully regressive tax,' hitting working class Americans the hardest
The Wall Street titan said there is a "modest" risk of stagflation as tariffs create inflationary pressures and slow down the economy.

Yelling "What about the price of eggs?" as US citizens and political opponents of the regime are dragged off to black sites by men in masks
No, actually, we shouldn't just let the government violently attack people on the streets and disappear them into foreign gulags. We should try to stop them.

"It is nowhere near the end, we do not yet even know how it will end, and there will be many more disturbing developments before it does, but Thursday was a day for seeing why standing up matters — and can make a difference."
The pushback against Trump's lawlessness is real — and making a difference
Sen. Van Hollen from Maryland met with Abrego Garcia, while Judge Wilkinson, a Reagan appointee, explained how wrong the Trump admin is here.

1. USA continues to threaten Canada's sovereignty

2. Canadians have been detained by ICE (in California!)

3. USA has concentration camps (El Salvador) where innocent people are disappeared

Canadians are supposed to ignore all that to visit Disneyland?

Bruh.

Has the Supreme Court really become so woke that it's demanding an innocent man be returned from an El Salvador torture prison?
