Take a listen and seriously consider it. While this is not an uncommon practice, I am glad people are beginning to speak up about it.

The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets. These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.

LAPD officer Rick Linton is fucking unhinged and unloading on protesters at point blank range. FUCK THIS PIG!!

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

very cool that george whitesides spent the entire fall courting progressives and claiming his vote was needed to keep the house blue and he's now using that vote to thank ICE for fucking disappearing his own constituents

Those are regular cops.

Fucking lunatic.

long live Los Angeles

It's telling that a democratic senator seems to be more inclined to scold his own constituents, who are currently under attack by ICE and local cops, than place any blame whatsoever on the people doing it. None of these people are going to lift a finger to stop any of this shit.

LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social

LAPD when they think nobody is watching

Still the same thugs they always were.

Wow. Who’d have thought that kidnapping loved ones, friends and neighbors would really piss off people?

BREAKING: An enormous peaceful protest has broken out in Los Angeles in defiance of Donald Trump’s ICE raids. This is how it’s done.

Them: “LA is a full on insurrection” Us at the protest:

Right now there is an LAPD sniper in downtown Los Angeles pointing his rifle at protesters on the street. Because ICE's racist kidnapping spree must be protected at all costs. And Barack Obama sent three quarters of a billion dollars in battlefield weapons every year to this country's police.

BBC is the only one covering the Los Angeles protests right now as Fox, CNN and MSNBC ignore it.

Fake emergencies to justify crackdowns-not very original

Vaccination will be essential to responding effectively to a H5N1 outbreak & we aren't ready. I spoke to @amymaxmen.bsky.social about it. My closer: "Should the bird flu become a pandemic in the next few years, Rasmussen said, "we will be screwed on multiple levels." abcnews.go.com/Health/axing...

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives. Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.

“The City of LA's Sanctuary City Ordinance prohibits City resources from being used to aid federal immigration enforcement. However, today, the City witnessed through videos and media coverage Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officers within the vicinity of ICE raids."

Re: Today's ICE Raids in the City of LA As City Controller, we will be formally requesting information from the LAPD to determine the financial impact these ICE raids have had in using City resources, such as the LAPD’s involvement and response to the resulting demonstrations.

abolish ICE and lock these agents in a dungeon.

So much fucking tear gas. DHS going nuts right now. This is happening in your sanctuary city “Los Angeles”

Just got shot with one of these…

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a once-in-a-generation leader who has led the fight for working people in Congress. In 2018, she shocked the world and transformed our politics. On June 24, with @aoc.bsky.social’s support and this movement behind us, we will do the same.

As Propaganda Minister of Team Fraud, I was exceptionally pleased with the interest in our work, but not because it was a “disinformation win.” Our preprint was published after peer review in Science & it stands. I’m mostly pleased that it makes Prof Ebright so utterly deranged that he said this 🤪
