Yea - exactly. I just checked my flight tracker app and it looks like westbound traffic to LAX that would normally fly over the inland empire were briefly being diverted NE over Ojai. It looks like they’ve resume ops over the inland empire now however

BREAKING🚨 Journalist Mario Guevara has officially been deported Friday from the United States back to his native El Salvador. This is a shameful erosion of press freedom in the U.S. — the first time that CPJ has documented this type of retaliation related to reporting.

At this point, any Democrat who votes to keep this government open without extracting very serious concessions — RFK’s resignation, ICE rollback, Epstein Files release, etc — will absolutely face a primary challenger who will set fundraising records.

Secretary Pete Hegseth Under my direction, the soldiers who fought at the Battle of Wounded Knee will keep their medals. This decision is final. Their place in history is settled.

There’s a reason it’s usually referred to as the Wounded Knee Massacre – American soldiers mercilessly killed unarmed Lakota men, women, children and elders.

There was no honor in what happened that day. This is a stain on our history.

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

Again - I agree with you! Your comment about Black women are tired…makes me want to give you a hug. We are in dark times. And yes - I am asking everyone who has a big platform - Pete Buttigieg, Tim Walz and Gavin Newsom are good examples.

I did not fire her. And she’s not just a private citizen but a high profile leader of our party with a massive platform that she can use to help us collectively fight back against fascism.

I agree with you! And she doesn’t owe me anything and i didn’t say as much. But she does have a much bigger platform than either you or I and I’m asking her to use that platform to help us with our collective fight against fascism.

Earlier today, you reposted someone who literally said the same thing I said: “yea i think you should be using your voice against this dictator instead of selling a book that we all know how it ended”

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments.

that fox news host still has his job.

the joke that got Kimmel kicked off ABC isn't even at the expense of Charlie Kirk. the way the US is accelerating in fascism is truly scaring the shit out of me!

Ms. Harris - with all due respect, what we need right now is not to know how you like to write but rather, how are we going to defeat Trumpism and save democracy.

3 months ago, today, Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered by a Trump supporter.

They had kids, too.

How Charlie Kirk’s social media machine rewired a generation’s politics The 31-year-old activist and provocateur build a modern political organization for the social media age, through the arts of online discourse and discord.

Important to be clear-eyed about the reality of Charlie Kirk's social media machine:

⦁ Built movement that mocked diversity initiatives, called trans identity a “mental delusion," sowed baseless suspicion about vaccines and election fraud ...

When Minnesota Democratic State Representative Melissa Hortman was murdered in her home by a gun toting MAGA maniac less than 90 days ago they said nothing. Trump even skipped her funeral and chose to play golf instead. He had the chance to condemn political violent and did not.

Narrator: He owned the libs, only to then get owned by tariffs.

Someone please kill me right now.

Meteorologists now face a Trump ‘loyalty test’ when applying to National Weather Service jobs After firing hundreds of meteorologists, the National Weather Service announced it is filling vacant positions. Applicants are being asked to detail their support for Trump’s policies.

Meteorologists now face a Trump ‘loyalty test’ when applying to National Weather Service jobs.

The essay questions — which have nothing to do with meteorology — are part of federal guidelines launched as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to recruit “patriotic Americans” to its workforce.

If pundits would like to talk about violence, a terrorist recently shot up the CDC and another assassinated Democratic officials in Minnesota but they sort of let both stories disappear

Not as threatening as motorbikes in DC I know but maybe we could circle back?

Oh my God

They might be making Trump mad, but Newsom has been throwing these at the press -- if you think these are beneath my office, why don't you say that when the president does the same thing?

He's exposing that the media has a separate set of standards for Our Very Special Boy and that's good.

US Park Police now doing traffic stops in DC, and charged at me with a baton for filming closer than they liked

Trump Is Trying to Hide the Cost of Renovating His New Air Force One The administration transferred nearly $1 billion dollars to a Pentagon project, but those funds will be used to renovate Trump's "flying palace."

On I-5 just entering Glenn County and can confirm it has started to rain!

I’ll be driving north to Oregon tomorrow - looks like I’ll be seeing some interesting skies on the way…looking forward to it!

Vance's 2015 biography of Musk did more to build up his bullshit brand, but it also covers a period in which the subject's actions could more easily support the narrative... Isaacson's book literally documents the seeds of Musk's self-destruction, which he just smothers in smarmy forced optimism

On July 5, as floodwaters were starting to recede, FEMA received 3,027 calls from disaster survivors and answered 3,018, or roughly 99.7 percent, the documents show. Contractors with four call center companies answered the vast majority of the calls. That evening, however, Ms. Noem did not renew the contracts with the four companies and hundreds of contractors were fired, according to the documents and the person briefed on the matter. The next day, July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls and answered 846, or roughly 35.8 percent, according to the documents. And on Monday, July 7, the agency fielded 16,419 calls and answered 2,613, or around 15.9 percent, the documents show.
