Are you a voter in California and angry at:

-rising healthcare costs

-rising inflation

-batshit crazy policies from Trump and Republicans

Then vote YES on Prop 50.

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.

ICE Stranded a 17-Year-Old on I-20 After Arresting His Father. The Mississippi Dad Now Faces Deportation.

A 17-year-old watched as ICE arrested his immigrant father, Hector, on I-20 in June. The family faces mounting legal fees and the risk of deportation.

Are American citizens being disappeared? Yes.

Are American citizens who are veterans of the US Armed Forces being disappeared? Yes.

Without warrant or probable cause—solely based on skin color—Trump goons captured and caged a citizen veteran for days.

This is a fascist regime.

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

@timmiller.bsky.social talked to a veteran who ICE wrongly detained and brutalized

🚨 Retired Major Richard Ojeda explains the danger of “floating the use of the 82nd Airborne Division on American soil.” His message needs to be heard. Veterans, retired and active, are aware of the Posse Comitatus Act. The U.S. military is not to attack our own citizens. 1/2

I made a horrible decision last night and told chat that I’d do a 24-hr livestream if we raise $100k with these streams by the 19th.

So if that’s an incentive to tune in… there you go.

promises to do a 24 hr livestream if her campaign reaches $100k in donations. If you want an unapologetically pro-democracy Congress, please consider donating. If you want to see her stream for 24 hours, please donate to the stream specific url.

It's illegal to fire fed employees during a shutdown. This is extortion. And delighting in taking away people's livelihoods from a self-described Christian Nationalist seems pretty Un-Christian to me. Solidarity with AFGE.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

Your daily reminder. You have a sexual predator in the WH.

this administration is like what you’d get if a reality tv show boss chose the cast of his hit show Pedophile Island

and then his good friend reportedly Epsteined himself in DOJ custody while Bill “Fred Flintstone” Barr was running DOJ in the reality boss’s first season

650 people in Brewer, Maine — ready to set off a political earthquake.

As Maine goes, so goes the nation. And that’s exactly why the politicians in Washington, D.C. are so scared.
