Justice Sonia Sotomayor SLAMS Pam Bondi: “Every time I listen to a lawyer-trained representative saying we should criminalise free speech in some way, I think to myself, that law school failed.”

If you live in CA, you can help support Prop 50 painting rocks! Place the finished rocks in public places, (parks, laundromats, public benches, parking lots; be creative!) they will carry on the campaign in your neighborhood! If you can create a paint party to bring in others, even better!

Where are the red Make America Great Again hats out in the fields? You know, the same people who swore immigrants were “taking their jobs.” Keep snatching hard-working folks who are just trying to support their families and don’t be shocked when this becomes the new norm.

Bulgarian editorial cartoonists Alla and Chavdar Georgievi remind the world of Trump’s Gaza plan, which has sometimes been echoed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

🚨BREAKING: Hours after Texas passed its new map, my law firm has challenged it in federal court. In addition to violating the VRA, HB 4 violates the 14th Amendment because it unjustifiably considers race and partisanship as part of a voluntary, mid-cycle redistricting. @redistrictfdn.bsky.social

Aw, isn't it sweet? Fanboy Trump got an autograph from his favorite authoritarian leader, Putin. The Press Conference was supposed to be about releasing the DOJ's Epstein files. Instead, he's claiming it's a hoax and changing the subject, touting how great Putin is.

So LM get this straight… Ghislaine Maxwell is in prison for trafficking girls to… nobody? No client list, even though AG Pam Bondi literally said it was sitting on her desk. 2,000 names in the little black book, but the court sealed it and the media shut up.

1. My condolences to those affected, for the families who have lost loved ones. Regardless of politics, I would never wish such sadness or hardship on anyone. 2. Wow, that money DOGE saved is really working well for the American people. Next, they'll wonder why FEMA isn't available for assistance.

This is my friend's video from Santa Ana, CA in OC. The Santa Ana PD had this situation totally under control. It was peaceful. Then ICE came in to provoke & attack. ICE is a terrorist secret police Gestapo-style band of thugs, posers, mercenaries & miscreants Speak up Call Congress: 202-224-3121

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

We can laugh about it now, but laughing was definitely not my initial reaction. If I'd been taking a video of my silly cat when he attempted his stunt, the last part of the video would have been me yelling "Oh shit!" and running to grab him as the phone fell to the ground.

Max can swim. He intended to catch a bird at the feeder-and he did knock it askew-but ended up taking an impressive leap into the pool (Think Rodney Dangerfield's Triple Lindy, well more of a bellyflop, but still). He then swam to the edge and pulled himself out as I was reaching down to grab him.
