Surprised it took this long, honestly

We've come here to chew bubble gum and provide legal support to the movement.....and we're all out gum.

A curfew to protect ice and federal forces with the threat of arrest for civilians doing their legally protected first amendment is nothing less than a de facto, police state snd marital law. This is unconscionable that the Democrat mayor would protect fascist federal forces in this way. Disgusting.

It is completely necessary to support Newsom as a governor fighting an authoritarian president and keep in mind that he has shown himself with incredible clarity to be an individual unworthy of trust who broke the sound barrier in normalizing authoritarianism for personal gain.

The Trump regime has charged their first Democratic member of Congress for the crime of political opposition. The Trump regime is trying to make it illegal to oppose them. They want to ban freedom of speech and end free and fair elections. This is what dictatorship looks like.

We’re in the streets in downtown Chicago.

members of an organization that kept a secret list of hundreds of pastors and church workers accused of molesting children did something, but it wasn’t leave an organization that kept a secret list of hundreds of pastors and church workers accused of molesting children

oh my God a New York Times editor had to resign 5 years ago over publishing an op ed by Tom Cotton calling for the military to shut down George Floyd protests now Wall Street Journal is letting him do the same shit separately, "Tom Cotton" sounds like the final boss in a video game about slavery

ICE appears to confirm that California National Guard are being used to provide security to ICE officers during immigration arrest operations.

Fox is airing aerial footage of U.S. Marines practicing how to subdue and arrest people as they prepare to deploy in L.A.

BREAKING: Gov. Newsom is asking for a restraining order on Trump/Hegseth's use of the military in Los Angeles, saying they are preparing to go on immigration raids with ICE. He wants a ruling within two hours. "They must be stopped immediately." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Lots of good advice in this post. Also from my pov as an occasional focus of far right ire I have had zero static since I shifted my main presence her. Their harassment cannot survive much friction, they don’t have the attention span. Tell your friends

We have a new paper out : “Stigmatizing content about xylazine in web-based news continues to proliferate, highlighting the need for collaborative efforts between the journalistic, medical, and public health sectors to challenge these narratives.” Read here: journals.lww.com/journaladdic...

Absolute fucking 🔥. "Over eight hours...people throwing back tear gas...throwing anything that they could to defend themselves...Border Patrol retreated. “And the hundreds of workers in the factories were able to escape. If any community was going to fight back without apology, it was this one."

Fascists will never experience joy as an act of resistance like this. They will never take Los Angeles. Immigrants, Refugees, & Asylum Seekers have always made it better here.

We love to see it

We are getting red flag after red flag That society is starting to self censor and remodel to try to accommodate for the new fascist reality we all find ourselves in at the hands of the Republican party as this continues and the silence of authoritarianism starts to settle in the damage compounds.

This is called mythmaking in real time. It's Lost Cause shit. I wrote about it years ago with the hope we wouldn't land here. www.nytimes.com/2021/01/19/o...

Free Mahdi Ali press conference happening rn, large MFE59 presence as we passed a resolution in April 2025 in support of the exoneration & release of former South HS student Mahdi Ali. resolution: docs.google.com/document/u/0...

He must be protected at all costs.

so trump is finally doing the thing dem leadership has been warning about and they're telling us to calm down

"You liberals & leftists need to come back to Twitter, the social media app that will threaten your family & have you arrested for doing something legal"

Your girl Angie Craig amongst 75 Democrats that joined Republicans to "express gratitude" to ICE agents and call for greater local and state collaboration with ICE.

hey guys just so you know aimee terese is a pedophile now too

Angie Fucking Craig CANNOT be our next senator. Lives literally depend on it.

This is both insane and untrue. Every year I watch videos of French people, including firefighters, fighting the cops and setting fires. No one shoots anyone.

conservatives are beginning to publicly workshop their rehabilitation of jeffery epstein lol

You all are treating the guy that drone bombed a wedding VERY poorly and that’s why you have to go to the camps

Dear media, swap out the benign or inaccurate names LE is using on us & use the correct terms. ❌ Flashbangs ✅ Concussion Grenade ❌ Tear gas ✅ CS gas ❌ Non-lethal/Less than lethal rounds ✅ Baton rounds/Kinetic Impact Projectiles (KIPs)/Rubber-coated steel bullets

Liberals need to admit this. They are the ones that fully funded their police forces with military grade equipment after the largest protest in American history asked them not to.

Let’s just fully establish that anything that does or does not happen in the next few is 100% the lefts fault, so we don’t have to keep reading takes like this from whiny centrists.

Cannot be understated how corrosive this conspiratorial thinking about every minutiae has been. “Menswear guy is a paid op” is insane. It’s indicative of a populace that has no courage, self-respect, or confidence to have their own beliefs, and so therefore anyone else’s must also be insincere

Do we still get our Trump Freedom Dividend?

These aren’t “migrant raids”—they aren’t raiding a secret layer where undocumented immigrants plot their government over throw. These are community raids.

They don't care about alienating voters because they don't intend to face another election.

i stopped wearing red crosses more than a decade ago, because police *habitually* target medics. this isn’t a one-off, it’s a deliberate choice they make over and over again. it’s not “a few bad apples,” it’s widespread practice.

Even the greeks, from the top of their allmighty misoginy, somehow wrote Antigone so there is NO excuse to not write good women

If you think climate change has gotten worse during your lifetime, you're right and there's a good reason. If you're Gen X like me, more than 3/4 of fossil fuel CO₂ emissions have occurred in your lifetime. Even if you're a Millennial, it's at least half. 📊: @neilrkaye.bsky.social

:(

We need to stop ICE from terrorizing communities nationally. Defend LA but don't ignore or abandon red states.

I know this isnt what people mean when they say “be water,” but I’m a huge nerd and can’t help but think about how researchers recently observed how dense groups of people move in fluid-like patterns youtu.be/SbVhHqBtHNg?...
