A lot of organizers on here have being saying 1) do SOMETHING and 2) that building meaningful relationships with our neighbors is doing something. And if that seems cute or like cope, well. Look at what people in LA are doing for their neighbors right now.

What is striking to me is the fact that this is an obvious attempt to distract from the Trump/Musk story. This wasn't well-planned. They don't seem to have meaningfully staged for this, logistically or otherwise. It's a panic move, not a power consolidation.

Let's be clear: the LA story is absolutely the more urgently important story. The Musk story (and specifically, the Miller angle) is just ALSO important because it helps us understand why they might jump the gun in LA in a way that is otherwise strategically perplexing.

LAPD helicopters are starting to buzz around again tonight. LAPD statements so far are vague and riddled with lawyer-speak, and our Mayor should order the police chief to provide full & live transparency regarding LAPD operations.

I asked New Mexicans what they would say to someone trying to sell off our public lands. Swipe to see what they said. Their message is loud and clear, keep public lands public. I’m making sure it’s heard in Washington.

The fact they chose California as the flash point is also an indicator that they don't think these things through LA has like 4M+ people. Sending every single ICE officer is ~20K, LAPD is 9K, LASD is 10K. Going in at 100:1 manpower – leaving zero bodies for literally anything else – is foolish 1/

@holdenthorp.bsky.social on point. “The US will no longer have the same window into the technologies of the future that will allow it to shape & anticipate commercial & societal advances. This will eventually reduce the market successes & global leadership that the US has boasted since WW II.”

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead: House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs

God talked to Joy Reid about the Trump-Elon feud, Star Trek and more. She was funny and cool and just delightful. I know this post won't get very many likes, because it's a link to our little podcast. But what is God gonna do, not post the episodes? ffs humans

If we're just figuring this out about a disease that we have long considered ubiquitous and have had around as long as we can remember, that most people can only get once, why is everyone so eager to go out and get COVID as often as possible?

Federal prosecutor Ben Schrader resigns instead of pursuing phony charges against Kilmar Abrego Garcia. In stark contrast to the fragile, petty, egomaniacal babies yelling at each other this week, we should all aspire to this kind of patriotism and courage 🇺🇸

I'm imagining ICE doing to NYC what it's doing to LA — and the people of NYC responding the way people are in LA — and it all happening under Mayor Cuomo. He'll side with ICE, DHS and, of course, the NYPD. This man, who hates the city and doesn't live here, can not become mayor. Don't rank him.

ICE rolls in, LA rises up.🔥 If Stephen Miller was looking for immigrants to roll over and just take it from his ICE goons, he picked the wrong f*cking town. Between yesterday in LA City and Paramount today, the community is fighting back.
