Be clear on what she’s saying here: She’s saying that Trump is going to use the U.S. military to overthrow both the duly elected Mayor of Los Angeles & the Governor of California. I understand she’s not very bright, but, in essence, she’s saying the federal government has declared war on California.
Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city."
Sen. Alex Padilla is then forcibly removed!

There’s a major shift in U.S. cybersecurity policy. A recent CISA memo removed Russia from its list of priorities, focusing instead on China and local systems. Analysts were told not to track Russian cyber threats.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

The reckless decision to release billions of gallons of water from the Terminus and Schafer Dams is already hurting farms and farmers.
It’s a massive waste.
I'm demanding answers from the Army Corps of Engineers about what happened. And why.

It’s not an “expression” to say that Donald Trump can’t run again.
He can’t fucking run again.
He’s a lame duck.
Period. The end.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections.
Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Karoline Leavitt just confirmed DOGE engineers have “read-only” access in the treasury.
First of all, do you buy that? And secondly, “read-only” still means they can read—and collect—our Social Security numbers. They’re techies; even I could get around that.

How on earth am I supposed to pretend everything is just working normally?
Answer: I'm not going to pretend. I'm telling it like it is.

Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"
