The former head of the New York Police Department has filed a federal lawsuit against scandal-scarred New York City Mayor Eric Adams and other high ranking NYPD officials, alleging the group used their power and authority to run a what he called a “criminal enterprise.”

Judge Breyer summarizing the DOJ:

“If the president says that there’s a rebellion, then there is a rebellion.”

"How is that different from what a monarch is?"

"We live in *response* to a monarchy."

As I predicted on air tonight @cnn.com

Judge Breyer:

"Defendants are temporarily ENJOINED from deploying members of the California National Guard in Los Angeles.
Defendants are DIRECTED to return control of the California National Guard to Governor Newsom"

I just wanna say something really plainly that I haven’t seen spelled out like this

There is no such thing as legal immigration anymore. Because they are taking people at their citizenship hearings they are taking people who are doing everything by the book.

IMPORTANT: Before the fascist attack on Senator Alex Padilla, Kristi Noem said that her gestapo in California were staying to "liberate the city socialist and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country."

Don't let that slide by.

Listen to Sen Alex Padilla discuss his meeting with Cosplay, more plastic than brains, Kristi after the puppy killer had him violently assaulted & handcuffed.

“You know, you’d think she might have started the meeting with an apology for what happened. Of course not.”

We stand with Sen Padilla!

AOC to Walz: We are talking about individuals who cheered the pardoning of people who attacked the U.S. Capitol while flying the Nazi flag and the Confederate flag

SCHATZ: "This is the stuff of dictatorships. He identified himself. That should be enough."

On June 6, 2025, the federal government initiated immigration raids across the City of Los Angeles. Protests swiftly followed, and some individuals involved in those protests were unruly and even violent. State and local law enforcement responded. The following day, President Trump ordered that members of the California National Guard be federalized, and thereupon assumed control of those forces. At this early stage of the proceedings, the Court must determine whether the President followed the congressionally mandated procedure for his actions. He did not. His actions were illegal-both exceeding the scope of his statutory authority and violating the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. He must therefore return control of the California National Guard to the Governor of the State of California forthwith.

JUST IN: Judge Charles Breyer finds that President Trump exceeded the scope of his authority and violated the 10th Amendment by federalizing the California National Guard and orders him to return control to Governor Newsom. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

The most important words of our Constitution are the first three: We the People. We have no Kings here, no monarchs, no slaves and no subjects.

We the People.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

i think it is bad that high level public officials do not respect the offices they hold or the public they are supposed to serve

Why are ICE agents masked to begin with? Our law enforcement officers shouldn’t be anonymous. Ever.

this guy is out here proudly being a eugenicist freak while people at mainstream and "respectable publications" make excuses for him or even muse about whether he has a "few good points"

NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.

Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.

There is NO "aborted fetal debris" in vaccines.

They're resurrecting one of the most innacurate and outdated lies to trigger people not only into not trusting vaccines, but to make them angry at those who produce them.

The cells used to produce a select number of vaccines are grown in a lab.

it really is astounding that a presidential administration crashed the growth trajectory of the wealthiest country on the planet in basically two months

Freakishly and shamelessly inappropriate.

The Miami Herald is doing remarkable public service journalism on deported Venezuelans and the crimes being committed against them. Almost like news institutions that are located in and around the communities they serve end up being accountable for serving those communities
