On June 14th, we show up. Coalition members will be present at all 1,800 events nationwide, over 90,000 strong, helping monitor local conditions. Many veterans have stepped forward to support protesters, stand in solidarity, and defend our right to be heard. We thank them.

President Trump won’t “tolerate rioting and violence.” Really? What about the 1,500 insurrectionists who he pardoned after they violently stormed the Capitol and attacked law enforcement officers on January 6th?

This is the spirit of Los Angeles.

This is California.

The folks hollering about “family values” are out here tearing families apart with unlawful ICE raids, militarized police, & the weaponization of government.

All while ripping away food & healthcare from working-class families.

Are the family values in the room with us?

Deploying Marines to LA isn’t normal. It’s a gross abuse of power similar to what we see from dictators around the world, setting the stage for martial law or full-on authoritarianism.

🔥“This is about retribution. It’s about provocation. And it’s about distraction.” — Rep. Jimmy Panetta

Trump is deploying the military without requests from governors, using them as props in a political game.

This isn’t leadership. It’s abuse.

RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process.

So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel.

Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.
RFK Jr. ousts entire CDC vaccine advisory committee
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has removed every member of a scientific committee that advises the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on how to use vaccines.

To any who are outraged with the conduct of the Trump Administration, and feel moved to stand up and speak out, I urge you to do so peacefully, safely, and lawfully. 

Local law enforcement is on the ground to protect the right to peaceful protest and ensure public safety.

🚨BREAKING: 300+ NIH employees call out the harm of censorship & politicized science in scathing email to Bhattacharya, demanding an end to political interference, a lift on funding freezes, & rehiring of fired staff whose work saves lives.

This is historic - insiders are blowing the whistle.

The No Kings mobilizations on June 14 were already planned as a peaceful stand against authoritarian overreach and the gross abuse of power Trump’s Administration has shown.

Now, this military escalation only confirms what we’ve known: This government wants to rule by force, not serve the people.
Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard against protests the *LAPD* commended for their nonviolence is a clear attempt to escalate, sow chaos, and chill dissent.

First with the ICE raids, then with this militarized response, we're seeing the tyranny of the Trump regime on full display.

What happened last night and today was manufactured propaganda by the Trump admin to justify using the military against Americans. Let us be clear: the military should never police civilians without a request from the state. So much for the so-called party of states’ rights and law and order.

Let’s be clear - this is the beginning of martial law. South Korean president was impeached for outright declaration of “martial law.”Just because there was no wording of “martial law” doesn’t make the substance different - use of military against civilians. #resist

Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

It’s unconscionable & un-American that SEIU CA Pres. David Huerta was violently arrested for peacefully exercising his 1st amendment rights & advocating for immigrant workers. David Huerta is a champion for workers & I stand with him & SEIU. I demand answers & accountability for ICE’s aggression.

Holy shit, this is horrifying.

Today and every day we stand with @seiuca.bsky.social and our immigrant friends and neighbors.
Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing.

ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him.

[email protected] should be showered with praise for this. The "smart" insider DC advice at the time was to abandon Abrego Garcia. But Van Hollen fought for his constituent and helped get him home. And it turns out fighting back rather than misreading polls was politically smart too.
New piece! Media coverage of Kilmar Abrego Garcia hurt Trump, not Democrats. An actually data-driven analysis of some stale conventional wisdom.

Alt title: Matt Yglesias is wrong about Democrats and Abrego Garcia🧵
