Replace "American citizens" with ... oh wait.

Everyone who has examined the data realizes that vote by mail has been incredibly successful in Oregon -- it increases turnout, access, once initial costs are pro-rated over time it is less costly. Most importantly, there's virtually no record of any fraud. Every state should adopt this system.

This guy is hitting people who are fleeing — with their backs turned. Did you see it?

@katmabu.bsky.social called me today to talk about how my donations directly helped her campaign! glad to say ive donated another $100 and a reoccurring $25 donation to boot!

Greetings! Just now getting to downtown Los Angeles. Reporters telling me that it was “absolute chaos” several minutes ago. A group of protesters are kettled on 1st and Hill.

HAMILTON COUNTY: Case dismissed against Walter Lundy, former aide to mayor Weston Wamp (the DA’s brother), whose son accused him of beating him with a baseball bat while intoxicated. Even after “he did not show up to court and failed 2 drug screenings” www.timesfreepress.com/news/2025/ju...

LAPD appears to have kettled protesters around 7:45pm to prevent them from leaving, waited for the 8pm curfew to kick in and then mass-arrested them for curfew violations.

I don’t know why the Huntington Beach police department is denying they had officers at the protest. I spoke with one of them- who was in uniform and walking with the horse mounted police. They have gone from total denial to saying he was there as an observer . This seems dubious. Will look into.

This is like wow. They are now pulling their gaiters up to their foreheads.

I’m live at the Pershing Square rally in Downtown Los Angeles

I invested in a pair of Kevlar leggings back in 2019. They are the best. 💪

Cops are shooting impact munitions madly. They're shooting at people who are simply moving along on sidewalks and leaving the area as they were ordered to do. No one in this video is throwing anything at police. Mounted cops are coming up behind people and hitting them with extra long riot batons.

Well I'm certain I wasn't doing any such thing...

WASHINGTON (AP) - National Guard members already have temporarily detained civilians in the Los Angeles protests, commander says.

California’s firefighting resources are already seeing cuts by the U.S. Forest Service, and now, Trump’s illegal military deployment threatens them even further. That’s why I’m launching a new CAL FIRE recruitment drive to ramp up efforts and keep our communities safe.

BAD: 2 GOP House committee chairs launch witch hunt against immigration NGOs that received federal funds under Biden admin, asking, among other things, whether they sued the government or filed amicus briefs in cases against it. homeland.house.gov/2025/06/11/c...

Nothing to see here, just official government accounts tweeting out a meme created by a neo-Nazi white supremacist.

Dear National Guard and U.S. Marine Corps personnel - Your oath to the Constitution comes before anything else. Before any one man or woman in office. Even before the President. No one is asking you to defy a lawful order. No one is asking you to betray your fellow soldiers or the public.

What are the projectiles in LA streets after recent protests? They’re less-lethal munitions — weapons designed to control crowds through pain, disorientation, and fear. Injuries from “less lethal” munitions can be severe, disfiguring, or occasionally deadly. Here’s what they can do to your body.

New from me for @lapublicpress.bsky.social - Thousands of projectiles littering LA’s streets represent a massive taxpayer expense as at least eight law enforcement agencies deployed an arsenal of crowd control weapons during weekend ICE protests. lapublicpress.org/2025/06/poli...
