Absolutely wild that LA has deployed LAPD, DHS has deployed both ICE and CBP, now the white house is calling in the national guard. You'd think the wildest riot in history was going down in LA right now, but it's actually just a bunch of protestors mostly just standing around holding signs.

🚨 ALERTA PHILLY 🚨 Hearing from a very credible local source that there may be ICE action tomorrow (Sunday 6/8) in the following areas: 5th and Washington Ave 7th and Snyder Ave 5th and McKean/Wolf Chinatown Let your neighbors know to stay safe and be vigilant. Be ready. Be water.

Per ABC News, felon serving in the role as president of the United States, deploys 2000 national guard troops to help with protests in Los Angeles.

If you want to show solidarity with Los Angeles, the best thing to do is organize protests against ICE tonight/tomorrow in your own cities. Search the web for ICE rapid response networks in your own city / state and sign up. Help your neighbors.

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.

The Trump administration would love to use war-style brutality and violence to attack all protestors. About 35% of the country would cheer it. Remind me why I should feel any community, any common humanity, any need to connect with those people.

"So here's the plan -- we impose massive tariffs on the nations that sell us food." "Hmm." "But it's OK, because we just rely more on states like California that grow a lot of the same things." "Oh, I guess that ..." "And then we go to war with California."

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.

For those of us who’ve spend the last 6 months discussing how the Trump would use deportations to create chaos is the Blue states and then use that chaos as an excuse to declare a national emergency and seize total power, things are right on schedule.

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

When LA really pops off, in the way that LA does, neither DHS nor LAPD will be able to contain it. It's not going to happen tonight, but I suspect it's going to happen before long this summer. And once LA gets going, there's really no stopping the crowds.

One thing I’d say about ranked choice voting in NYC is that you don’t have to do complex calculations of viability. You should rank in order of who you want to be mayor and if you don’t want someone to be mayor, you shouldn’t rank them!

It’s legitimate cause for a tax strike. Money from California is going all over the country to help support states that, through hundreds of years of mismanagement, haven’t managed to lift half their populations out of poverty. And they get spit on for it.
