Put Him On TV @maddow.msnbc.com‬
Published by Tom Sullivan on June 9, 2025
Armed only with the truth



After assembling the long rant earlier, I meant to run something humorous. Then I ran across this man addressing national guardsmen outside the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building and United States Courthouse in Los Angeles. He is not hurling rock or bottle or epithets. He’s come armed with truth.

I hate cliche expressions like “speak truth to power.” Usually, because it’s not done as masterfully as this.


Damn. Put this man on television tonight, Rachel Maddow.

Have you fought dictatorship today?

EDIT TO ADD: I have read in several places on FB this is Wyatt Russell, Kurt and Goldie Hawn's son. No idea if that's true, but there it is.

No, that isn't Wyatt Russell at the anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles
