Also, all you liberals who were humping Amy Coney Barrett last month really should have listened to me when I told you SHE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Not rapists
Not drug dealers
Not criminals
Not murderers

Just people who, if they don’t have their papers, have broken less laws than Trump.

2/ These things are cultural, they are regional. California was part of Mexico until 1848!

Nobody out here, excepting Santa Monica fascist Stephen Miller, is unnerved by a Mexican flag. Just like nobody in Boston or Chicago is like WHOA AN IRISH FLAG WHAT IS UP WITH THAT

The California National Guard and Trump's ICE regime forces attacked unarmed US citizens, protestors and media, with tear gas, smoke grenades, and pellet rounds. They pushed them into the street and declared a 'unlawful assembly', a violation of people's first amendment. #StopICE (πŸ“Ή@JamesQueallyLAT)

Abrego Garcia's Lawyers: "This Case is Not Over." Lawyers for Abrego Garcia slam the government for trying to weasel their way out of contempt.

Did you know that when Pam Bondi said "We presented El Salvador with an arrest warrant and they agreed to return him," she was admitting she failed to follow the extradition process, proving he could have been returned at any time? My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/abrego-gar...

This...is...not...honest.

This pic is from five years ago and not even in Los Angeles. Immoral opportunists like James Woods and Ted Cruz trade on lies to promote other lies.

β€œLos Angeles is my home. And like so many Americans, I am appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city.

Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos. In addition to the recent ICE raids in Southern California and across our nation, it is part of the Trump Administration's cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division.

This Administration's actions are not about public safety - they're about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process.

Protest is a powerful tool - essential in the fight for justice.

And as the LAPD, Mayor, and Governor have noted, demonstrations in defense of our immigrant neighbors have been overwhelmingly peaceful.

I continue to support the millions of Americans who are standing up to protect our most fundamental rights and freedoms.”

All these patriots who signed up for the National Guard to protect America from Russia and China are being turned on their fellow Americans by a Russian-backed corrupt madman.

Just as Putin would have scripted it, and just as Trump and Miller oblige.

"In our federal system, the National Gov. possesses only limited powers; the States and the people retain the remainder. The States have broad authority to enact legislation for the public goodβ€”what we have often called a 'police power.' The Fed. Gov., by contrast, has no such authority."-SCOTUS '14

Rick Scott's company paid a $1.7 billion fine for defrauding Medicare and Medicaid, then the largest health care fraud settlement in American history.

Update: I'm hearing the senate vote on this stupid crypto bill could come tonight.

This week should be about the despicable GOP reconciliation bill. The few Dems on this crypto bill aren't just wrong on policy, they're fracturing the party at a time we should be unified against GOP corruption.

How many of you could have spent your time going after the felon who’s been deporting kids with cancer instead of beating up on the former President who has an aggressive form of cancer himself?

Absolutely sick. I will never trust you or your leadership again.

At 1:34 AM Trump called for DOJ to investigate Kamala Harris, BeyoncΓ©, Springsteen, Oprah and others for crimes, he then made another deranged post about it at 9:11 AM, and the lead story of the day on MSNBC and CNN continues to be Joe Biden in 2023.

The future of history: Trump could leave less documentation behind than any previous US president Donald Trump's administration says it's the most transparent in history. But it's taken even more drastic steps than his first to shield key documents and information from the public.

Excellent @apnews.com story shows why poor White House record-keeping & secrecy doesn’t just break laws or violate norms, but denies accountability, preventing Americans from ever knowing what a POTUS & Cabinet officials did in our name. It’s not OK, no matter who does it. apnews.com/article/trum...

The reality is the president was rage tweeting Walmart less than 48 hours ago after they announced price hikes due to Trump’s tariffs.

Just constant lies from this White House.

Vance is a genuine asshole, but I think he also sees assholery as a part of a winning political persona. What he misses is that lots of people see Trump as a *fun* asshole and that's why they like his schtick. But there's nothing fun about JD Vance and never will be.
