Nory Sontay Ramos was a thriving high school student in L.A. until she and her mom were deported by the Trump administration in July. For @msnbc.com, we visited her in Guatemala as she tries to graduate remotely while hiding from the same gang they fled years ago. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/n...

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.

“Soldiers wear camouflage to conceal themselves from the enemy they want to kill. Safety vests are what municipal workers put on so you can see them at work,” @chrislhayes.bsky.social on the “comically absurd” spectacle of Trump’s army of garbage collectors in DC.
RULE ABOUT AMERICAN FLAGS: If you burn the fabric part, you're looking at jail. But it you use the pole part to assault a police officer, you get a presidential pardon, praise, and some cash.
I hope none of this revenue goes to the FED and stays in CA to support our communities. Other than that great work @governor.ca.gov #GavinNewsom #GavinNewsomRealFighter
Want @betseystevenson.bsky.social or me to give a talk to your intro econ class? My publisher is running a fun contest: If you win, one of us will fly in to give a guest lecture in your class. (No, 2nd prize isn't two lectures.) Enter here: go.macmillanlearning.com/SW3e.html #TeachEcon
😂- nice change of pace. Keep it up man.
That's exactly what #LA should do against this #kidnapping happening across the state. If they don't identify them selves and don't present a warrant and forcedly entering private property, reaching breaking windows and reaching inside a 🚗, those #agents should be persecuted. #GavinNewsom

Constituent: You need to take your head out of Trump’s ass.
Lmfao 🤣
Convicted Felon Trump thinks his ideas should be laws, like criminalizing the burning of the American flag. His problem: the Constitution & SCOTUS tell him otherwise. My latest on Trump’s EO and why he & MAGA are hypocrites when it comes to respecting the American flag. youtu.be/9tQHPx76ahM?...
youtube.com/shorts/PJaz9... It's like watching one of those Simpsons' episodes where they nail a future event. I wonder how long until #Republicans claim that #Democrats orchestrated all this to gain power 😂
Checks Notes 🗒️ Yeah, she said that too.
Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion
This is what Trump doesn't want you to see.
Donald Trump turned a booming economy into a stagnant one in record time. His war on affordability and small businesses are having real impacts — from his chaotic tariffs to his job and economy-killing immigration raids. California will continue to fight back.
Trump’s militarization of Los Angeles seems to have been just the start of an authoritarian takeover of American cities. This is not leadership. This is a scary, unlawful grab for power, and we should all be deeply concerned.
So far, we can agree that @governor.ca.gov is meeting the fucking moment. @schumer.senate.gov should really step down as he fails to acknowledge how fragile the US democracy is right now. #gavinnewsom #velshi
yep yep yep.
@gtconway.bsky.social epic, lmfao 🤣
I can't disagree with a word he said. The only patriot in this video is the person holding the camera.
😂🤣
😂
Surprise, surprise, that "dictator only on day one" thing was bullshit. ICE raids. Military occupation. Loyalists installed in gov't. DOJ used for political retribution. Redistricting to fix elections. Pay-me capitalism. US Democracy is dead. The question is what YOU are going to do about it?
So, the president is a watcher? I mean he said he sleeps in a different room from his own wife 🤔 🤷🏽♂️
Hmm, who is to say that she was not reading from a script after she was promised a transfer to a new prison 🤔 Audio won't cut it now, you would think they would have video recorded the whole interview. @briantylercohen.bsky.social don't you agree? Why are they so afraid of the files?
Now that looks like a deal. Unlike the president's framework or concept of deals.. @governor.ca.gov keep up the good work.
@governor.ca.gov nice, that's what you were elected to do, fight for Californians.
@governor.ca.gov, how is this still going on in LA. I hope #democrats sue these agents independently because they are terrorizing people of color.
I found him eating grass 😂
Fuck yeah, finally a #democrat grew some balls and spine. Great job @governor.ca.gov keep it up. 👊🏽🔥🇺🇸
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social is taking the fight to them. 👊🏽🔥🇺🇸
Republicans are trying to rig the rules—and Democrats are fighting back.
😂
😍😍
Great job @gavinnewsom.bsky.social #WaitingForOtherDems
😂😂
You know she is saving that picture 😂
😂😂
🤣🤣
Republicans and Donald Trump were counting on California to cave in response to their election rigging attempts in Texas. But they've got another thing coming. We're fighting back.
I hope this motivates other #dems speak up and join @governor.ca.gov in this fight, not just with words but with actions and commitment.
I would have asked the #TexasDems to wait until the Maps were voted for and passed the people's vote before going back home. At that point I would have agreed with this post description. So, right now CA doesn't have a bazooka or a knife facing the #GOP. 🤷🏽♂️
America's drug dealers, child sex traffickers and serial killers have a special message for Donald Trump:
Gavin Newsom’s late-night message to Fox
@governor.ca.gov #gavinnewsom #GavinNewsomLegendary
I've seen this in Russia, El Salvador, The Middle East, and Venezuela. Pretty much any authoritarian/dictatorship country
@governor.ca.gov 🤣 #GavinNewsomLegendary
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social , you are doing a fantastic job triggering those ❄️ 👊🏽🇺🇸🔥 #GavinNewsom
Lmfao
Gavin Newsom responds to Fox's Dana Perino melting down over his tweets:
This dude wants to do what the Salvadoran president did to increase his power and presidential terms.
Yeah and look how their economy is doing.. bad 😑
@governor.ca.gov best trolling I've seen coming out of the left 😂 #GavinNewsom
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social well said. 😎🤘🏽 #GavinNewsom #FightForDemocracy
@briantylercohen.bsky.social , best episode. Entertaining and informative. Keep up the good work. 🔥🇺🇸👊🏽 #briantylercohen #DeadlySub youtu.be/NeLUSvAZsxQ?...
Lmfao 😂
His name must be all over that list.
My question to the masked tough guy 😂
Nice, about time. @governor.ca.gov glad that you are meeting the moment and finally listening to what the people asked from the #democrats. Times have changed and so have the methods to fight for #democracy. #GavinNewsom
If this dude has a GoFundMe I'll donate for his legal service. 😎🤘🏽
This guy is meeting the moment 🤣
“sandwich based assaults on our brave officers are up 1000% percent”
I do hope #smithsonia collapse.. they are the biggest traitor for bending a need. And erasing history
#TACO
Lmfao
This is the GOP in a nutshell. Never believe a word they say.
Posting this for visibility and reminder. youtu.be/KpamjJtXqFI?...
youtube.com/watch?v=NYWs... Uhmm, I came across this YouTube video explaining lutnick past and how he made his billions and how he profit from volatile markets. @stephruhle.bsky.social, what are your thoughts on this? I think the media should report more on this. #11thhourmsnbc #USAEcon #morningjoe
I'm not arguing that. What I'm arguing is that #democrats have been pushed around for so long that their base has become unmotivated to vote. I think you can agree with that assessment.
Hmm, I never said trials. If you read what I wrote. I said Republicans don't care about law or norms. But you brought up trials. Trump had many cases pending and yet the Democrats slowed walked many decisions that could have put that guy in jail. 🤷🏽♂️
I just want to have a bite of that 🍑🤤😍
Congratulations @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social
And Democrat voters see how Republicans force their will on to the people without following the law or norms, they become disappointed and lose trust in the party and what they stand for.
Let me put this to you, who was in charge during those trials? The #democrats, but even though norms where no longer followed by the Republicans from the first term of Trump, they decided to let the "system" do it's thing. The very system Republicans have no shame on exploiting.
Japan marked 80 years since the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima during World War II. At a ceremony, a moment of silence signaled the time of the blast eight decades ago.
youtube.com/shorts/kh0yP... @jordanklepper.bsky.social, you always deliver. This was hilarious 🤣 #thedailyshow #thedailyshowJordan
On the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, Trump claims the GOP is “entitled” to more seats in TX. Newsflash: voters choose leaders, not the other way. @katiephang.bsky.social breaks it down. Watch. Share. Spread truth further than their lies. #WePersist #FairMaps 🎥 @elm-nyc.bsky.social
Trump hates facts. He rejects truth. He doesn’t want the public to know what’s really happening. Trump has destroyed the credibility of the BLS — an extraordinarily important source of information. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]
