She stood there next to the Mayor looking at the site, his charges were dropped. They're after her House seat.

The LA times is trying to down play things with their, "it's not a war zone" story. Parts of the LAPD are pushing. Videos of a cop breaking his own cruiser window, a cop shooting a woman reporter, cops on horses kicking a downed protesters with hoofs. Cops to set off a riot by beating Rodney King.

Yes! Thank you for speaking out.

Terry Moran and @jimacosta.bsky.social are journalistic heros. They stood up to the dictatorship, despite taking hits. Also proud of Gen. Hertling. Stelter was let go, but brought back to the "disinformation machine" (Hertling's words.) Fighting MAGA bigotry could have been a CNN legacy, but no.

Beautiful. I love begonias, and all flowers. My North Hollywood grandmother started me on her garden when I was a kid.

I watched a LAPD breaking his own cruiser window. Blame the liberals. Stir the pot.

I haven't X, but I'm sure they're burning down the house. LA Times is trying to downplay things, "it's not a war zone." Living in LA, I watched the LAPD turn it into a zone, beating Rodney King. They're provoking again, with Trump fuel. When you purposely shoot a woman reporter, war zone. 1/2

I'm old with veteran and work issues, had time to watch CNN last year. Absolute incompetent journalism and sold out to MAGA guests. Jim Acosta quit because he wasn't allowed to stand up to Trump shills. A journ. prof. told Amanpour on CNN, they made Trump. They just don't get their low ratings.
comment in response to post
I just watched the LAPD smash their own cruiser window, use a rubber bullet gun to shoot a woman reporter, use horse hoofs to kick a downed protester. I watched the Rodney King beating and a riot start. When it feels like a war to brown and black folks, might just be. When Trump is involved, it is.
comment in response to post
Again, we're back to the LAPD who beat Rodney King and started a riot of fed up oppressed people. They're trying to do it again. Shooting an Australian reporter, using horse hoofs and batons to beat a downed protester, etc. Trump wants his parade, and his Marshall Law. He has his Kim love letter.

I was born in LA in the late 40s. Lived through a lot. One thing you could count on, the beautiful people now demonized by MAGA. The trouble came during times like the Rodney King beating by LAPD. Now, Trump, Stephan Miller, Homan. CNN isn't helping, all polite with the force that shot a reporter.

We're back to CNN and those who played this game with Trump. All for entertainment news and ratings they thought they'd get. Instead, they lost their ratings and we lost our country. Yet, Tapper still writes his ego book, and ratings fall even more. The Marines are in LA and CNN got zip-tied.

When Project 2025 founders started their march through the GOP, the GOP that had been taken over by the Tea Party. Pr. 2025 saw their chance to consume the Party and needed a guy like Trump to con the masses to go from the Tea Party to MAGA to the Pr. 2025 take over of America. LA is again Jan. 6.

Bingo. I said that earlier. The Confederate flag is fine, but a Pride flag or any flag from brown countries are anti-American.

CNN is playing nice, Jason Carrol, as he gets zip-tied and led away from reporting. Instead of holding the cops accountable for horses and batons going after people on the ground, shooting journalists with rubber bullets, and trying to incite a riot. CNN did that all of 2024. BFFs with Trump shills.
comment in response to post
Stephan Miller sits in his mom's basement and plans all this. Had to bury Jan. 6, by owning libs into rioting, by getting police to do a Rodney King on them. Horses and baton and gas. Plus making sure a journalist get suspended for calling him out for what he is.

When I got drafted in the '60s, the Army didn't have gear like that yet. A lot more soldiers died. Now, everyone has those from soldiers to cops to date night folks.

He sent in Marines yesterday. Our Marines are part of the Navy, but Army like.

Yes! Well said.
comment in response to post
All this politeness is what CNN did during all of 2024. Normalizing insanity. You got zip tied for reporting, Jason. Jim Acosta quit because he couldn't be silenced from calling out the crap from Trump people. Don't tell me the cops are being nice. They are shilling for Trump. If cops refused....
comment in response to post
Trump and his crazies are trying to rewrite Jan. 6. Own the liberals by goating them into rioting. Then have an excuse to call Marshall Law. Troops in LA while troops and tanks march in his parade. "I'd like generals like Hitler had."

Great job! Australia sent a reporter to cover the LA protest, and she got shot by an LAPD guy trying to start a riot (like the Rodney King beating.)

If this doesn't sum up things, a picture worth a thousand words. Beautiful people lending a hand, while living in fear of disappearing because of maniac Nazis in DC.
comment in response to post
CNN is too afraid to actually be part of a class action suit for silencing journalists. Tapper proved he's a Republican. Acosta and Hertling quit because they didn't want to be a part of the scam. The "disinformation machine" Gen. Hertling called CNN.
comment in response to post
Burnett is part of the CNN making of Trump. A journalism professor, a woman journalist herself, told Amanpour that CNN made Trump. The way CNN normalized Trump and his people, and actually encouraged MAGA voters.

If you go into an Irish bar in the US, you'll see an Irish flag. On Pride Day, you'll see a rainbow flag. When you go into the South, you see Confederate flags.
comment in response to post
The police shooting of the reporter on camera, and other journalists hurt, is part of the flaming that causes violence, not the protesters. Seeing LAPD horses and batons used to kick and hit a downed protester, is violence. The Rodney King riot was started by the LAPD.

Massive parade protest. Show the lower egg prices voters the final straw in their mis-guided voting, and those who didn't vote, how lazy or self-centered they are.

I want a lawsuit. Lawyers get busy. The guy closest on the left aimed and fired. The evidence is all there. Don't back down Australia.
comment in response to post
When Rep Debbie Dingle told CNN in 2024 that Dems must be civilized, I knew we were in trouble. Reasoning with Trump and MAGA since 2016, got us Jan. 6, and a dictatorship. These troops are how Trump has dis'ed them since day one. "I'd like generals like Hitler had." MAGA shills: "he's just joking."

When your sister is crazy, and working for crazy, 91% sane people got real. Now we need 91% real sanity in 2026/28. No more couch sitters.

I have to criticize Newsom when he tried to make nice on his podcasts, with MAGA Charlie Kirk and Bannon. CNN did/does that. Nice just shoots us all in the foot as wee try to protest these crazy people. Trump now says he'll arrest Newsom. The LAPD is crazy. Their beating of Rodney King = a riot.

Yes! I just got done raising kittens with their mom, a stray. Clean up duty. They're all spayed now, and have homes. Mom is with me with my old stray.

For the sequel of Tapper's next book. Joe Biden, The Real Story...... I'm sorry Joe, I took my eye off the ball.
comment in response to post
ICE and Police are the rioters in LA. When Rodney King was beaten by LA Police, people did riot. But the violence we saw from police, started it. When we hear, "defund the police," this violence is where that comes from. Trump's police state, with his Putin parade coming soon.

Nice. I have the special Roy Orbison DVD with her singing back up chorus with other greats. Bruce Springsteen and others playing guitars.

With his Kim Jong Un parade coming up....

As opposed to the crimes Trump and his hench men and women have committed. And Bennett enables. Accessory before and after the fact.
