The inhumanity of man is full on full blown evil madness in broad daylight! Morbidly obese men in jeggings and worn out tshirts, not carrying any badges or identifying markings, forcing people to the ground and beating them repeatedly and viciously while pinned to the sidewalk by at least 3 men.😡😡😡

It’s no use trying to find sense in anything anyone is doing anymore. There are good and bad reasons for taking threats seriously, and also for not taking desperate fatal measures. People have to be allowed to do what they think is right for the greatest # of people at risk. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Trans rights are being targeted and taken, in the military and all over the US. We need to use the privileges, skills, and abilities we have to advocate for and support them.

Judge grills Trump DOJ on order tying transportation funding to immigration enforcement | Colorado Newsline The lawsuit brought by 20 Democratic state attorneys general challenges an April directive from Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy

A Rhode Island federal judge seemed likely Wednesday to block the U.S. Department of Transportation’s move to yank billions in congressional funding for bridges, roads and airport projects if Democrat-led states, including Colorado, do not partake in federal immigration enforcement.

The radicals on this Court will have the blood of my community forever on their hands. Many teens would rather end their own lives than live other than as they truly are. The justices know this, and yet the majority greenlights this medical restriction, which is steeped in bigotry, animus (1/2)

This is beyond cruel, especially for young folks who are going through it. Cutting off LGBTQ+ youth from specialized suicide prevention help is a death sentence disguised as bureaucracy.

Shame on every official who signed off on this. You’re not protecting children, you’re abandoning them.

Setting the record straight:
Trump’s lawyers argue the Guard must stay under federal control to keep the peace in L.A. That’s a lie!

There’s no insurrection, no chaos, no crisis California can’t handle.

This is about control: flexing on LA as an example, targeting immigrants & testing the limits.

There is no place in a modern democracy for Winsome Sears’ shocking and violent rhetoric referencing the use of weapons and calling voters “the enemy” immediately following the MN shootings. She must immediately and unequivocally denounce these incendiary and irresponsible remarks. #VAGov

To any tourist thinking you can just day hike up a mountain in Colorado: high elevation and dehydration can kill you. Getting wet in the cold can kill you, and so can broken bones. Elk, bears, and mountain lions can kill you! Don’t come here without being prepared for these mountain conditions!!

😂😂😂 My forever memory of that damn stupid parade will be those squeaky tanks!!

ABC Boots Star Anchor for Saying Miller ‘Eats His Hate’ The move comes two days after Moran was suspended over an X post.

ABC News has cut ties with its senior national correspondent Terry Moran after he posted that Stephen Miller is a “world-class hater” who “eats his hate.”

Kudos to Moran for having the courage to speak the truth — and screw ABC News for not standing behind him and backing his right to free speech.

Texas hospital that discharged woman with doomed pregnancy violated the law, a federal inquiry finds A federal investigation has found that a Texas hospital that repeatedly sent a woman who was bleeding and in pain home without ending her nonviable, life-threatening pregnancy violated the law.

She "ultimately lost part of her reproductive system after being discharged without any help from her hometown emergency room for her dangerous ectopic pregnancy"

These people are a plague on this country.

The many factions in other countries seem to work better than the 2 party system. All factions must coalesce to have a majority government. The dems could stop gatekeeping, let the factions form and build common platforms to keep the republicans from winning. It should also be mandatory to vote!!

IMO one of them is more likely to have been able to take the risks to pull this off. Or at least pressure Epstein into taking the action himself. Someone who has done this type of thing before and is comfortable doing it. Has the people trained for it. Trump isn’t that sophisticated.

Any country with a nuclear warhead has equal power to us. I certainly don’t think any US president has more power than the leader of Saudi Arabia, who has personal wealth and power well beyond most people on earth. It’s a relative measure.

And he would have had to give up the presidency if he had been caught. He would not have risked that.

Why Paramount's efforts to settle Trump's lawsuit have drawn mounting political heat Two California Democrats have proposed a hearing to review Paramount Global's efforts to settle Trump's $20-billion lawsuit. 'I haven’t seen a president act in this brazen of a manner,' said state Se...

Trump's Paramount lawsuit is "ridiculously frivolous," @seth-stern.bsky.social told @latimes.com.

"This is so transparently an abuse of power — a shakedown."

Plaintiff’s name is a worthy slap at the administration, all on it’s own.

This is the ONLY issue worth pursuing in this asinine cat fight!

Wow: Musk calls for Trump to be impeached

Phang: There’s a Texas Tribune article that reveals that the Trump administration knew the vast majority of the 238 Venezuelan immigrants sent to CECOT in mid-March had not been convicted of crimes in the U.S.—even though the administration wanted to label them as terrorists before deporting them.
