It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

Gavin Newsom is so incredibly annoying because he is unbearable like 90% of the time but the other 10% he cooks so hard that you can’t help but give it to him

Man the LA Times sucks so hard now. Just this snippet from an article about the protests… “…objectivity is in the eye of the beholder. And even then, it’s largely a mirage.” Post modernist trash. There is no objective truth anymore? Just what your boss says is ok to print I guess.

These aren’t “migrant raids”—they aren’t raiding a secret layer where undocumented immigrants plot their government over throw. These are community raids.

My very white husband just went to the Costco in Van Nuys. He has reported back. HE SURVIVED UNHARMED. No invasion of gangs there. No drama of any kind. Just good deals on large size items and very friendly employees. I love that place. Anyway, don’t believe the hype. #losAngeles

Hello I’m a little white lady from #LosAngeles. Today, I’m planting the last of my squash seeds in my backyard. Apparently, I might need military assistance to do this? I don’t know….Maybe they can carry a bag of fertilizer for me? Seriously, go home. We don’t need you here.

I honestly feel sorry for how they are treating the National Guard. If anyone wants to quit, I have a guest room and I’ll cook you a really good meal and then send you back to your mom. You deserve better.* *unless you have been tear gassing citizens

Peaceful protest is the bedrock of our movement. Thousands demonstrated exactly that – coming together to demand the release of David Huerta and to call for an end to the cruel, destructive, and indiscriminate ICE raids that are tearing apart our communities. #FreeDavidEndRaids
