To my representatives in Washington: Trump's illegal move to occupy Washington DC with loyalist troops is Hitlerian insanity. Trump's plunge into the abyss of arrogant incompetent dictator can not be allowed to continue. 25 Trump as soon as physically possible! Do it now!

🥲🤬🇺🇸🤬🥲

PHILLY: Man posing as an ICE agent robs car repair business, ties up and manhandles a woman from the Dominican Republic — “He kept saying he is immigration officer.” It was only a matter of time before these masked vigilantes breed impersonators. www.fox29.com/video/1501153

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him? No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens. Fascism is here.

U.S. Marine Corps General (Ret.) John Kelly reveals President Trump's consistent readiness to use the military against Americans, a pattern that began in his first term.

@repmaxinewaters.bsky.social pleads with National Guard to not use their guns, yesterday.

History shows that once an authoritarian ruler establishes the infrastructure of a police state, that same infrastructure can be turned on anyone. Trump is rapidly creating such an infrastructure. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-police-state

They’re trying to silence us with fear and force. But “darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.” On 6/14, we show them what resistance looks like. Peaceful, unshakable, and everywhere!

This isn’t tough. It’s tyrannical.

The U.S. military -- designed to protect American interests abroad -- is being turned on the American people by their own president. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

Trump is declaring fake emergencies against immigrants and protesters while gutting our capacity to respond to actual emergencies like natural disasters and pandemics.

Sorry I’m late with this. Please remember that Saturday, 14 Jun, is Flag Day. May our nation survive to celebrate it. Amen.

What would make @washingtonpost.com call this "Ukraine's dirty war" when it was Russia that started and continues the war?? Wonder why lots of us cancelled our WaPo subscriptions? Here's your answer.

He’s illegitimate using the stolen law there’s a difference

California representatives did a check in where migrants were being detained. They found no beds, no food and no water. Children were among the detained.

DEVELOPING: No warning. No reason. NYPD officers rushed into the crowd and tackled a protester this weekend. His body was limp. He couldn’t move. He said, “I can’t feel my legs.” He might never walk again. For showing up. This is brutality. This is America.

After spending a lifetime teaching, I know my proudest legacy is the students who will rebuild this country — making it better, more just, and more equal. My colleagues at @imcivicaction.bsky.social‬ have announced that tickets are on sale for their film about my last semester teaching.

The husband of the victim said that the defendant yelled homophobic slurs immediately before he shot and murdered him. Really? It took this long for the police to figure out it’s a hate crime? www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Deploying the national guard to California is a big step toward dictatorship. A big, dangerous step.

“Strongman” politicians project their supposed strength by attacking immigrants, people of color, and the LGBTQ+ community. But these groups of people aren't the "threats" we should be worried about. Who is? The oligarchs who earn their keep by exploiting the rest of us.

Her stats line up with CDC data…

Have information you think the public should know about the Census Bureau, another federal statistical agency or other parts of the federal government? I'm a @npr.org correspondent who can be reached on Signal at hansi.01 (please use a nonwork device), and here's my latest article:

There’s obviously a lot going on right now, but two people were killed and nine others were injured during a mass shooting in Philadelphia yesterday and it barely even registered as news. In most countries, that would be a massive story. Here in America, it’s just another day.

Journalism. Free speech. The rule of law. “All under attack,” said ‘60 Minutes’ correspondent Scott Pelley. “Diversity is now ‘illegal.’ Inclusion, a dirty word.” At Wake Forest, he didn’t give a speech. He rang the alarm. 👏👏👏 #BlueSky #MedSky #NewsSky

So let me get this straight: the "party of the working class" is kicking millions of people off health care to fund tax cuts that disproportionately benefit the rich?

If empathy is a sin, then sin boldly.
