Phenomenal...2 big-idea people steeped in the history of democracy and politics. I had about 20 epiphanies, 5 ideas for essays. The media didn't seem to get it, so decide for yourself! I suspect I wouldn't have gotten much out of it if I hadn't been following @hcrichardson.bsky.social! THANKS!

Stop. We're not rioting here in Los Angeles. Trump isn't removing criminals. He's scooping up our friends and neighbors and denying them due process. We're protecting them with our bodies and making it difficult for ICE to commit these crimes. There is a difference.

Here's the official release from the White House, and apparently, we're in a state "of rebellion". 😒 Fellow Californians, you know the drill. Every one of us should be speed dialing: - Our federal electeds - Our state electeds - Newsom - And Bonta right now.

CBS News Ed O'Keefe: "The president invoked his Title 10 authority to federalize and deploy 2,000 National Guard in California and did not invoke the Insurrection Act, @PressSec tells me."

As the federal government conducts chaotic immigration sweeps across the country, the state is deploying additional CHP to maintain safety on Los Angeles highways to keep the peace. It's not their job to assist in federal immigration enforcement.

Tanks being moved into DC. National guard being mobilized in LA. Paramilitary thugs being unleashed across America. It's summer in America and fascism is in full bloom.

AIDS Memorial Quilt on display October 11-13 1996 on the National Mall in Washington D.C. Let us never forget.

The image shows the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt on display on the National Mall in Washington D.C. in October 1996. This particular display, from October 11-13, 1996, was the last time the entire quilt was shown in its entirety, covering the vast expanse of the National Mall from the Washington Monument towards the U.S. Capitol. It featured over 40,000 panels and drew approximately 1.2 million visitors.

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

The Wall Street Journal had a piece last night that the Judicial Conference of the United States — the policy making body for the federal judiciary — is discussing whether the Judiciary should have its own armed security force rather than rely on the U.S. Marshals for federal judges’ protection.

I cannot stress enough how much of a Def Con 1 moment this is. Federal judges fear that the President of the United States will stand down security for judges in retaliation for adverse decisions. This is such a huge story.

This week, House Republicans passed President Trump's budget bill. We break it down in my Intel Briefing: 1️⃣ Slashing Medicaid + food assistance to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy 2️⃣ Rolling back manufacturing tax credits + PFAS water rules 3️⃣ Trump ignoring a SCOTUS court order

Work requirements hurt poor people AND are a waste of money. Arkansas spent $26 million on administrative costs for work requirements — and saw no increase in employment. Georgia’s program cost $40 million in one year — 80% of that went to administrative and consulting costs.
