Would be great if major news outlets stand together and all broadcast the no kings protests

Question: can we use the leverage Democrats now have to stop troops being deployed to our cities? Stop the use of taxpayer dollars for paying for federal troops invading our cities.

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

Senator Alex Padilla is a good man and principled public servant.

The brazen and aggressive manhandling of Senator Padilla by the Trump administration is a sickening disgrace.

Anyone who assaulted the Senator should be held accountable.

No one is above the law.

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem.

Right fucking now.

Trump said protests against him would be met with β€œvery heavy force.” Sen. Padilla’s treatment suggests that’s their attitude toward attempts to question the king’s courtiers as well.

While Trump blusters about "law & order," a reminder that his administration has dropped or halted nearly 150 corporate enforcement actions.

And Trump himself has pardoned dozens of his supporters convicted of crimes like money laundering and bribery.

The hypocrisy is staggering.

This is the photo of Congress men and women the night of 9/11- showing solitary in support of our nation under attack. We need Congress to once again stand in solidarity with our nation under attack by the Administration. Enough!

Shhh. Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare again. Sort of. They’re not branding it an Obamacare repeal this time around, but congressional Republicans are pursuing cuts to programs that are part of the 15-year-old health-care law.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

One of our highest priorities must be to protect the people who are doing the most right now to push back against Trump’s tyranny: our judiciary.

Here’s what should be done. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/protecting-our-judges

Court strikes down Trump's tariffs, ruling them illegal A federal court on Wednesday blocked many of the large-scale tariffs imposed by President Trump.

HUGE LOSS FOR TRUMP: A federal court panel of judges on the US Court of International Trade has frozen many of the sweeping tariffs imposed by Trump on virtually every foreign nation, ruling the levies exceed the president's legal authority. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/cou...

Thank you for this reminder- just called both offices and told them to stop the bill, take out the poisons that expand Presidential powers and powers to stop the courts, and fully fund Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security.

House Republicans Kill Provision to Sell Public Lands The controversial amendment in the federal budget bill would have required the disposal of 500,000 acres of public land.

A sliver of silver lining to the Trump tax injustice bill that the House passed last night: It's attack on public lands failed. On the other hand, it makes even deeper cuts to incentives for alt energy (even incl nuclear) than expected. So much for the R's position of "all of the above" energy.

Mitch provides thoughtful and considered answers to difficult questions about the executive orders regarding our National Forests. Really refreshing to listen to a thoughtful discussion rather than sound bites of hysteria. Full disclosure: Mitch is my cousin, and I’m very proud of him!

I truly disagree with your conclusion. We need artists everywhere to speak the truth of what is happening now. Fascism requires silence and obedience. When artists speak out, they inspire others to do so. Courage is contagious.

Isn’t it crazy that Republicans weren’t concerned about a convicted felon running for President, but Democrats are concerned if the candidate is [fill in blank]? Pete is excellent! Period.
