Piece of shit ICE fascists are swarming Little Tokyo. Posted up outside the Japanese American Museum threatening people with internment. Impossible to overstate how disgusting these people are.

Threatening people with internment in *checks notes* Little Tokyo near the Japanese American Museum is *really* dirty work.

Californians Say X Blocked Them From Viewing Amber Alert About Missing 14-Year-Old Many people reported they hit a screen preventing them from seeing the alert unless they signed in.

Senator Adam Schiff U.S. Senator for California

Hey can someone in the office of @schiff.senate.gov or @gavinnewsom.bsky.social get California Highway Patrol to stop sending Amber Alerts as X links? If itโ€™s so urgent that my phone needs to go off, why can the info to require an X account? (Iโ€™d rather not help out the Hitler salute guy.)

My disused Twitter feed wonโ€™t load Amber Alerts anymore - though KTLA 5 has info. @jonrosenberg.bsky.social is right about โ€œXโ€ being the Nazi Bar. โ€ฆ

โ€˜Done Waiting My Turnโ€™: Younger Democrats Are Eager to Seize the Car Keys

Some good analysis here on the changes happening within the Democratic party, as seen through the prism of our three biggest 2025 candidates:

Mikie Sherrill
Abigail Spanberger
Zohran Mamdani

All different ideologically, but all younger candidates willing to fight.

Sotomayor Warns No One Is Safe After Birthright Citizenship Ruling Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor torched the Supreme Court for siding with Trump on birthright citizenshipโ€”and putting every civil right under attack.

Everyone needs to learn about the Dual State Theory:

An effective fascist regime has two simultaneous states: an authoritarian part, and another that functions under existing laws.

UFC sponsored the June 14, 2025, Army paradeโ€”widely criticized as a de facto Trump rally, held on his birthday, funded by defense contractors and MAGA-aligned corporations.

This parade wasnโ€™t neutral patriotism โ€” it was a show of military might wrapped in Trumpist propaganda, with UFCโ€™s logo on it

I donโ€™t blame them. I would take sick leave, and Iโ€™m sure hotel workers can hardly afford to take time off. ICE should stay in the detention centers in the same conditions as the people they detain.

Seems like a bunch of the ICE masked goons around LA are staying at Marriott properties. Just sent Marriott an email letting them know that as a Latina, I will not stay at any of their properties while they have ICE there. Itโ€™s a safety issue for me. Poor employees.

Why would they? Hegseth wouldโ€™ve leaked it. Rubio wouldโ€™ve shut it down. Noem wouldโ€™ve staged a photo op. Trump wouldโ€™ve โ€œretruthedโ€ it. And Karoline would have lied about it.
