BREAKING: Trump says he’s firing the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics—because he doesn’t like the latest jobs report and revisions showing his cratering economy. The numbers were bad, so naturally, he’s blaming someone else and demanding loyalty over accuracy.

Reports begin to emerge regarding the inhumane conditions under which people are being detained at the Florida Everglades concentration camp.

• One meal per day
• No showers
• Maggot-infested food
• Lights on 24/7

These are known torture tactics.

Many detainees are legal residents.

Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park.

It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I don’t even think they detained anyone.

Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.
