If you watch closely, you'll see they're doing this opposite an actual funeral procession.

Excerpt: Norwegian teachers and students wore paper clips to signal their opposition to Nazi occupation. They attached them to their lapels and wore them as jewelry, a symbol of solidarity binding them together as paper clips did with papers.

Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

It's not a coincidence that white women occupy prominent top cop positions. Don't be fooled. Kristi Noem, and Pam Bondi, are both karens. They should be treated as such.

The "delicate, beautiful, tiny" fascism of Kristi Noem

The right thinks Noem is the victim of Sen. Padilla's assault. But what about Rep. McIver?

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.

We will hold this administration accountable.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

If you're waving the Mexican flag in front of burning cars, you're giving Trump exactly what he wants. Waving the American flag at protests is better messaging. The Civil Rights movement did it, and so did Cesar Chavez.

Shelley Silva @shellsilva.bsky.social · Jun 8

I agree with you (and others) that we shouldn't give the regime the fight it's spoiling for. Unfortunately, Trump wins either way. If no one shows, he'll claim it as proof of his authority (cue Cartman).

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.
