This is the spirit of Los Angeles. This is California. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. #FreeDavidEndRaids

BREAKING: A fourth court has found that President Trump's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act was illegal, seeking to stretch the meaning of "invasion" beyond its plain meaning. The ruling blocks AEA deportations in the Western District of Texas. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

What would I do without Lawyersky?!

While this is totally my sense of the state of things, I guess I'm clinging to the idea that our collective digestion of the daily events and outrages does have a large impact on how these things get processed by the larger population of normies out there.

A herring is a fish. When a herring is preserved by salting and smoking, it turns red and smells. It's so pungent that it's a great diversion to distract hunting dogs from their trail. Now, a ‘red herring’ refers to anything that diverts attention from the issue at hand.

today is the day that i finally journey through the bowling ball return chute

Hard to quantify how much I'd rather be neighbors with any of these fellas than Charlie fuxxing Kirk.

Hello from downtown LA, where the sun is setting and the tenor of the protests is shifting It's been a long day and has all the markings of a long night Let's do this 🧵

I call on beloved LA band The Red Hot Chili Peppers to defuse tensions with a public performance of their song ‘Sir Psycho Sexy’

Deciding "Jeb!" is a fine thing to say tells me that y'all haven't been powerbombed by your lesbian boyfriends and it SHOWS.

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

“He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures."

A favorite Molly Ivins quote, because this video embodies what she was encouraging: fighting for what's right should be a joyful thing. The rest of the quote: "And when you get through celebrating the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was!”"

Detainees inside the LA Federal detention center are flashing their lights for protesters.

Here’s the “Presidential Memorandum”: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential... There’s no Insurrection Act invocation; Trump is federalizing 2000 CA Nat’l Guard personnel only to “protect federal functions.” *Without* invoking the Insurrection Act, anything more would violate the Posse Comitatus Act.

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 metaphor police are working too hard
