The president is hawking fragrances while the State of Florida is celebrating its first concentration camp by handing out swag.

I'm rooting for the asteroid now more than ever.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose β€œno” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

Every single Republican who just voted to rip health care away from 17 million Americans has government-funded health care.

Alligator Alcatraz, Dollar Dive, and the Porky Pig Party As the Senate burns, Trump hawks cologne, Musk throws tantrums, and the dollar falls to 1970s lows, welcome to the empire’s late-stage spectacle.

SLOTKIN: Have you given the order to be able to shoot at unarmed protesters in any way?


HEGSETH: What is that based on?

SLOTKIN: It is based on Trump giving that order to your predecessor, who I give a lot of credit to bc he didn't accept the order. He has more guts & balls than you

A statement from Kamala D. Harris:

Los 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 β€”they’re about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process.

Protest is a powerful tool β€” 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.

Mr. Authoritarian President, why weren’t you as interested in upholding β€œvery strong law and order” during the insurrection on the Nation’s Capital as you are now in LA? Was your inaction then a result of your having incited the insurrection? #WeMustImpeachTrump!

"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

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.
