Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

One thing Newsom has shown is key to effectively deal with Trump & the MAGA propaganda machine: You must respond immediately & call out the lies. You can’t wait until hours/days later, then answer in a press conference, statement, scripted speech. All Dems should learn from it.

The Marines ought to refuse this deployment unless and until it is made a legal order by Trump invoking the Insurrection Act or declaring martial law. Until then, I have no idea how any Marine is under the Code deeming this a legal order. I really do not. Can any military lawyers explain it?

There isn’t one summer holiday worthy of celebration this year after the abomination bill the House just passed. All decent people should think about protesting and pass on the summer festivities. #boycottthe4th

Jeffries: There are three big issues with the bill 1. It represents the largest cut to healthcare in American history. 2. It represents the largest cut to nutritional assistance in American history. 3. All of this is being done to enact the largest tax break for billionaires in American history.

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most
Chris Hayes (@chrislhayes.bsky.social) reposted
Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.
Prisonculture (@prisonculture.bsky.social) reposted
Please spread the correct information about Mayor Baraka's arrest. He had apparently been trying for a few days to visit the ICE prison and was rebuffed. Then the members of Congress tried to visit today and were made to wait in the waiting area for 90 minutes. Then 20 ICE Gestapo showed up...

Tom Homan, Acting Director of ICE, implied last week that he would begin arresting mayors and governors who do not cooperate with their unconstitutional ICE plans. They just arrested Ras Baraka, Newark's Mayor. This cannot stand. This is a direct threat to any possibility of democracy.
