Today is the most humiliating day in the history of the United States of America.
At least until tomorrow.
McGovern: Well, he said a lot of crazy shit today. I think it’s time to take the keys away from grandpa. He doesn’t seem like he’s all there.
Another proud day for America.
Everyone I encountered at the #NoKings protest in Beverly Hills was peaceful and civil. Lots of chanting, dancing, singing… and honking! *This* is what democracy looks like! 🚫👑🇺🇸
It was great to finally meet you and share the rail with the lovely @allikazoo.bsky.social! 🌼🌼
“What Senator Alex Padilla did today was political theater.”
--Kristi Noem, the Head of Costuming, Hair, and Makeup at Political Theater
There is no universe in which it is acceptable for a Secretary of DHS to say anything like this.
Kristi Noem must resign immediately.
Or be impeached.
This is chilling to watch and utterly unacceptable in the United States of America.
As a former Senator, I’m calling on all current members to speak out on behalf of Sen. Padilla and defend him and the Senate against these outrageous attacks.
see what you need to understand is that they’re coming hard at california bc if they can take us down then it tells the smaller states there’s no point in fighting. we’re the bellwether. that’s why it’s so important we stop this shit NOW.
Sen. Schiff: "Alex Padilla, on the ground, face to the ground, and in handcuffs — if you were looking for an image of our democracy in handcuffs, look no further."
This is the time to meet the moment, Democrats.
We need leaders and fighters.
It's now.
Today they have crossed a deep red line.
We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.
Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.
Great article, Phil. Thought you’d like to fix this sentence, as Amber Glenn’s name is missing.
you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.
President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous.
Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.
What Trump/Vance did today by attacking Zelensky using Putin's talking points would be like in 1940 FDR openly mocking Winston Churchill using Hitler's talking points as the Nazis bombed London. This was TREASONOUS!
Those were the days — with OB:INXS! ❤️
Huge anti Trump protests in Los Angeles today. ❤
Amazing video that Questlove and Maya Rudolph put together to showcase all of the music artists that have appeared on SNL. Here’s a clip of Duran Duran mixed with …
We are living in a democratic emergency. It is a profound mistake to go along to get along.
One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.
This shows the 2021 schedule. They did something similar with group 1 earlier for men and dance and then groups 2 & 3 later for both:

They may not have done it last year; they do it when it’s necessary for TV purposes. It’s obviously not an ideal scenario for the skaters or the in-person spectators.
Yes, they have done it before. That’s how I know the reasoning. I had the same reaction as you the first time they did it several years ago!
