Except in the heart of winter, frequently drizzling is more accurate. Most years Boston gets more total rainfall than Portland, it just comes in a few discrete storms rather than the constant drizzle.

LAPD denies assistance to ICE to leave area. Sheriff also denies assistance to ICE. ICE is trapped by the people of Paramount.

After my break, it’s still going on. The sheriff’s dept has told ICE they’re on their own and have to figure out how to leave by themselves. They are refusing to assist. LAPD are only monitoring that the crowd doesn’t spread into other areas. The stand off continues. ICE vs LA.

even people who live here don’t fully comprehend just how many people live in greater Los Angeles
these assholes, who view the place entirely through the prism of Fox News propaganda, absolutely have no idea what kind of a hornet’s nest they’re kicking

There's no version of a closer relationship between them that doesn't lead to Putin bending the knee to Xi and they both know it.

sure it's easy to say "defund the police" but who will you call when you're in danger and you need somebody to roll in guns blazing and kill you before you can identify yourself then plant a gun on your corpse

They spend an unhealthy amount of time inside a hermetically sealed media bubble being inundated with this nonsense 24/7. They have no sense of what the world is really like because they don't spend any meaningful time in it.

I still encounter people on the regular who are shocked to hear that Portland isn't a burnt husk where a city used to be. We aren't dealing with the brightest bulbs in the barn.

Sure. I was just saying you don't need to go back to the 18th century for it to be a living breathing thing.

It ticks me off that media fawning over Democrats is reserved for the Ro Khannas and Elise Slotkins of the world and never people like Ben Wikler or Anderson Clayton who are working to strengthen the party at the state level.
"To be successful Dems need to be less like Dems."
How about, no.

it seems like the Times has written off any reaction on bluesky as just angry lefties and applying that dismissive attitude to this, of all subjects, is truly reprehensible

I can fly direct from BOS to LHR, in a lie-flat business class seat, on any of multiple days this July, for 45,000* Alaska Airlines miles each way.
That's insanely cheap for the height of summer tourist season.
* $675 equivalent cash value
