This might be the most unpresidential thing he's ever posted

I don't know how any self-respecting member of Congress cannot be disgusted by this, like how do they sleep at night knowing they're propping up an abhorrent sadistic sociopath

Hearing a lot of great stories about accessibility and inclusion at No Kings.

People providing transportation to and from the event.

People wearing N95s!

People ensuring the routes were wheelchair accessible.

People setting up virtual events.

Thank you for including disabled comrades!

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

South Shore Residents Return To Ransacked Apartments After ICE Raid: 'It Looks Like Hell' A "now renting" sign outside touts granite countertops. Inside, residents are trying to make sense of the raid that made their already neglected building even worse.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now itโ€™s commonplace.

Thatโ€™s not making America great again.

Portland is peaceful.
"Antifa" is fictitious.
Worldviews vehemently against fascism are ethical and wise.
Inciting violence is pathologic.

Opposing political violence requires that we condemn Charlie Kirkโ€™s death.

Opposing political violence also requires that we condemn Charlie Kirkโ€™s life.

Charlie Kirk spent his life encouraging his allies on the far-right to think violence was legitimate and concerns about it were fake.

We all know the goal was always to โ€œown the libs.โ€ And in chasing that, too many have given up their own freedoms just to claim a hollow โ€œwin.โ€ What they donโ€™t see is that the monster they fed never stops, it eventually comes for us all. And now their silence is deafening.

Some National Guard units in Washington are now carrying firearms in escalation of Trump deployment Some National Guard units patrolling the nationโ€™s capital at the direction of President Donald Trump have started carrying firearms.

Well, this has certainly escalated quickly. National Guard units patrolling the nationโ€™s capital under Trumpโ€™s orders are now carrying firearms. The moment our military turns its weapons on American citizens will mark a point of no return.

Iโ€™ve heard military law experts advise, if you are given an illegal command as a soldier, do not blindly obey. Call your attorney. Obeying an illegal command can result in a court martial.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

It's wild that CBS is canceling a show that's been on the air since 1993 (32 years!) suddenly for "financial reasons." Likely story, sure.

WTF?!? Border Czar Tom Homan claimed that ICE and Border Patrol agents donโ€™t need probable cause to detain people they suspect are undocumented, saying they can do so based on factors like physical appearance. This is straight-up racial profiling, not law enforcement.

Theyโ€™re laying the rhetorical groundwork for casting a wider detention net.

If Stephen Miller gets his way, opposing ICE makes us all โ€œinsurrectionists.โ€

We must reclaim the narrative before they make โ€œterroristsโ€ of us all.

FIGHT BACK materially and rhetorically.

One day, Americans will look back in horror at the MAGAt Era.

All the institutions - private or otherwise - that pandered to, acquiesced to, appeased, or supported it will be ruined.

We will acknowledge the danger of unfettered constant lying & foreign enemy-sourced anti-America propaganda.

Wow! France gifted her to us, and now theyโ€™ve captured what so many Americans are feeling on Independence Day. The values the Statue of Liberty stood for are no more.
