Hearing from various press members, there are *at least* three accredited journalists who have been hospitalized today due to law enforcement less lethal munitions. @adamrose.bsky.social and others will likely be able to update further.

Great advice

Please share. It might help. WHAT TO DO IF VIOLENCE BREAKS OUT AT A PROTEST. First and foremost - do not protest at night. Too dangerous, too many bad things can be made to happen by corrupt law enforcement, Trump Gestapo, agent provocateurs & nut jobs seeking violence under cover of darkness.

Where’s a credible place that I can read to catch me up? I used to live in Los Angeles. I defend people accused of crimes for a living. I do not trust this administration, what kicked off their need for the National Guard, why was this different from any other demonstration? Thnx

So I’ve been busy for hours. I’m just plugging in right now, what is really going on? Trump ordered the National Guard into Los Angeles and they are doing what? Trying to catch up. Was there a sequence of events that caused the National Guard to be deployed? Or what is the excuse?

I liked this. 510 US at 550: "Not all unfavorable disposition towards an individual (or his case) is properly described by those terms. One would not say, for example, that world opinion is biased or prejudiced against Adolf Hitler." 😂

All I keep thinking about is how much Vonnegut would have delighted at the social connections made possible by our modern (often-hated) cell phones. “Lonely no more.” I think he’d have found a lot to rejoice in. They’re not *all* bad. X/2
