    Two Dem lawmakers shot, one dead in MN

    To the surprise of probably no one. https://x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1934399305680326688 Trump has not called Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz in the aftermath of the assassination of House DFL Leader Melissa Hortman.
  3. For doing the right thing after a disasterous policy only because he was tanking in the polls? No, no applause, as the consequences of his decision had been predicted by myself and others here for months. Well, on second thought, since he finally came to his senses, I think he deserves a :golfclap:

The move follows weeks of increased enforcement since Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff and main architect of Trump’s immigration policies, said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers would target at least 3,000 arrests a day, up from about 650 a day during the first five months of Trump’s second term. Tatum King, an official with ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations unit, wrote regional leaders on Thursday to halt investigations of the agricultural industry, including meatpackers, restaurants and hotels, according to The New York Times. A U.S. official who was not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity confirmed to The Associated Press the contents of the directive. The Homeland Security Department did not dispute it.
  5. I covered that earlier in the thread, but here goes again: https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/14/no-kings-protest-trump-00406243 The demonstrations, organized by an extensive list of progressive organizations including the ACLU, Indivisible and the Service Employees International Union, were dubbed “No Kings” protests and aimed to highlight Americans’ resistance to the Trump administration.

  6. From Google: The term "no kings" comes from protests against perceived authoritarian actions by the Trump administration. The protests, organized by the 50501 Movement, are a response to what they see as the president's attempts to consolidate power and undermine democratic norms. The slogan "no kings" is a direct challenge to these perceived actions, emphasizing a rejection of monarchy and a commitment to democratic principles.

    Exactly. A MAGA denizen of this forum could hardly wait to post this on Page 1 of this thread shortly after the news had broken (which we now know was a completely unwarranted assumption). "Imagine voting to cut healthcare to illegals triggers this"
  9. https://x.com/atrupar/status/1934245564083818837 (CNN interview video clip at link) Karen Bass: "There is no comparison [with the 1992 riots]. And unfortunately that is what is being pushed, as though the city is in chaos, there's civil unrest everywhere. For most Angelenos, they're like, 'What city are they describing?' They are definitely not describing Los Angeles."
  10. https://x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1934242045268201541 More than 5 million people took part in "No Kings" demonstrations in over 2,100 cities and towns across the country, with an additional 300 "Kick Out the Clowns" rallies being held. Philadelphia saw more than 100,000 attendees and Chicago 75,000, while smaller towns such as Pentland, Michigan, reported 400 in a town of 800, organizers said. https://axios.com/2025/06/14/no-kings-protests-usa-june-14-trump-military-parade

    That crossed my mind as a plausible explanation, but at this point we just don't know (and it doesn't seem to fit any narrative).

    Yes, he worked for Walz, but the board he was appointed to was non-partisan.
  13. This may be an overreaction from the LA Sheriff's Dept.

    VIOLENCE is a Feature of the Left, not an Exception

    Yes. "Despite serving under Democratic governors, Boelter last registered to vote in 2022 as a Republican, according to the New York Post."

    No, it isn't true and there is always context missing from this shut-in, who has time to post in every thread in this forum, but never the time to verify what he posts as being factually accurate or to provide a link.

    No appears to be Christian Anti-Abortion right looney, but we don't have all the details yet.
  17. Per Google, the driving distance between where I live and Downtown L.A. is 15 miles.
