An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house" The practice, an expert warns, could lead to "reprisals and retribution by the police for your politics.”

An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house."

The threat was greeted with extreme concern by civil liberties and digital privacy groups. It suggests the LAPD could be using facial recognition to identify and retaliate against protesters.

We feed you.
They hunt us.

Remember SignalGate?

(One of Trump's superpowers is being involved in so many scandals all the time that very few of them end up having staying power beyond a news cycle or two.)

DISGUSTING

DOGE to Shutter DOJ Tax Division I didn’t know this until this morning. And I’m surprised it hasn’t...

NEW: Having Gutted the IRS, DOGE is Now Preparing to Shutter the Tax Division at the Department of Justice. For the Super-Rich Paying Taxes Will Probably Be All But Voluntary Going Forward. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/doge-...

History will remember, and we will, too.

If you haven’t seen this, you need to!

Trump is short-selling America—deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them.

Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm.
Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

You’d think when you’re claiming the richest country in the world can’t afford childhood cancer research you might wait a year before throwing yourself a 100 million dollar birthday parade. But carpe diem, suckers.

After teaching constitutional law for more than a decade, it's sobering to confront the reality of a federal judiciary caving so quickly on protecting core constitutional norms and principles.

We are far beyond Youngstown & Korematsu, and now facing a moment of extreme peril and uncertainty.

It's wild that doge isn't afraid of 70 million people plus their family members.

Peter Navarro made up Ron Vara in his book - the expert economist who thinks tariffs are good.

That’s why Trump is doing tariffs.

Because of a fake economist that Navarro made up.

Ron Vara is an anagram of his name Navarro.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Okay, let me get this right ↙️ 
 
- Pissing off moms 
- Ripping off consumers 
- Taking away voting rights 
- Undermining the judiciary  
- Tanking the economy 
- Gutting Medicaid and 
- Blowing a $37T hole in the debt 
 
That is the GOP's agenda this week??? Stellar job guys. 👏

Just this...👇🏼

Insider trading much? Didn’t Martha Stewart go to prison for that? Just curious 🤔

Good morning all!

That is something that should happen, but if it was Orange Shitstain only I’d be okay with that too. It would be a good start.

My thoughts exactly. They will walk away happy and leave the rest of us to drown.

They'll have to kill me cuz I ain't goin.

China tariffs are now 104%. Forget inflation for a moment—American owned companies are going to go out of business.

This is bonkers!!!

Raskin: He destroyed more than $10 trillion in American wealth in a single week. And then he went golfing and bragged to America about winning the tournament at his own golf course. That's like bragging about being endorsed by your own campaign manager. So much winning

An innocent man was sent to an El Salvadorian prison and the Supreme Court just decided not to bring him back. The rot in this country, in our politics & courts is so much deeper than one man. Do not let their lack of humanity corrode your own. The real question is what are we willing to sacrifice?

WARNER: Can you explain how it helps natl security or our trade balance - I loved your fancy Greek formula which was bad math on steroids - how with a trade surplus Australia got hit with a 10% tariff as well?

GREER: Australia has the lowest rate available

WARNER: We have a trade surplus!

At this point, you can’t convince me they aren’t manipulating the market.

As soon as the indexes started peaking today, the White House started talking about tariffs on China, and everything is in the red again.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie.

America, people. Freedom and stuff.

It's freaking unreal!

Here we go again.
