Utterly surreal hearing silence during the match instead of being lead by the 3252. Powerful AF. #lafc #abolishice

ON THE GROUND IN LOS ANGELES - LAPD GETTING PUSHED BACK AND KETTLED BY CROWD! LA not fucking with ICE, DHS, or any of these pigs. FTP!!

This is the energy we need.

full blown police riot in progress. never let them reframe this.

I think we’ve found the source of the violence

Fake emergencies to justify crackdowns-not very original

the government is intentionally manufacturing the conditions for violence against its own citizens, grim stuff

ICE crossed a line in LA

Leader of @seiuca.bsky.social was almost murdered by ICE. He now faces charges. The union, one of the largest in the US, is calling for a demonstration on Monday.

Cannot stress enough that this is a pitiful action by a weak, scared, pathetic group of insecure, wannabe authoritarians, and they should be mocked until the end of time for wanting to bring in the military over some people protesting them at a Home Depot.

this is what the people of la are saying "no" to. this is what we're in the streets about.

Tear-gassing an unarmed, unmasked woman holding a US flag

There’s no unrest in LA. There are people trying to save their families and communities. All the unrest is caused by ICE raids.

Fuck, and I cannot stress this enough, this guy, and fuck ICE. They aren't worried about treating immigrants like real people with real families. Well, turnabout is fair play.

South Dakota Law Review is doing a joint symposium with the Native America Law Student Association on issues related to access to justice in Indian Country. Call for papers is open and the event will be in Vermillion on Sept 29. Please share widely. Details here: www.usd.edu/Academics/Co...

love a senator imploring regular citizens to fight back against tyranny. dawg you spent the last twenty years giving machine guns and tanks to traffic cops this is like pushing your toddler into the ring with ivan drago

SHAME ON YOU AMERICA ‼️ A CHILD HANDCUFFED & SEARCHED Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes - Anne Frank, 01/13/1943

This is how I talk about hedge funds and private equity

And it's @drewmagary.bsky.social from the top rope: www.sfgate.com/politics/art...

I have tried to get normal people to believe this and it's basically impossible. A tidal wave of death and suffering was being held back by a trivial piece of the US budget, but our brains just aren't wired to understand the world that way.

The fact neither party will release the Epstein files tells you that there is some fucked up shit in there.
