His fake deep tough guy voice is actually hilarious and indicative of the entire force at large.

LAPD now shooting 40mm foam rounds at people, some narrowly missing photographers who were stuck in between the line and protesters. Just absolutely evil shit.

This is ABSOLUTELY insane I was also there to witness this. Great job to Sean for capturing this horrific, violent attack, my photos will come soon. This is just another example of not only political violence, but right-on-right violence.

Something that may be correlated with this. Last night I saw a DHS police officer with a Condition One rifle (round in the chamber)

The victims deserve justice. We wouldn’t need “the list” if we just believed women. The fact the speaker is actively colluding with the president and obstructing justice is beyond the pale. And now Congress can’t even do their jobs. Disgusting! 😡

It would be a brilliant idea for @lincolnproject.us to make an ad contrasting Trump and Epstein’s friendship w/ photos of them together, and quotes of them being best friends with how Trump talks about him now. Ending with if that’s how quickly he’ll turn on his friend, he’ll turn on you too

Hegseth said the strike in Iran was the most complex and secretive military operation in HISTORY. Someone should remind him. It’s embarrassing how much Obama is living rent free in their heads.

Republicans hate the working class, and veterans. None of their legislation reflects they value those groups of people.

How can anyone actively support letting children go hungry, or letting veterans who have gone through so much without necessary resources, or letting people get sick? I guess it’s easy when corporate PACs pay off their politicians.

Sen. Bernie Sanders walked out of President Trump’s speech. Afterwards, over half a dozen House Democrats — including several who have been holding up signs protesting Trump — walked out of the chamber. Follow our live coverage and analysis:

Our stock market is crashing. Our economy is contracting. Our government is dismantling. Our allies are fleeing. Our grocery prices are rising. But at least we now call it "The Gulf of America." So it all evens out.
