An overnight curfew was declared for downtown Los Angeles on Tuesday in response to looting and vandalism that broke out during ICE protests, officials said. 🔗 ow.ly/nplm50W7uPk

Polite request to please credit the photographers whose L.A. photos you’re sharing. They’re out there risking getting their shins exploded by police munitions to get those shots.

Our California Newsroom public media colleagues are providing widespread coverage of the #immigration protests happening around the state. Here's some good info to start with ... relevant everywhere, not just to LA laist.com/news/politic...

Congress is considering clawing back approved public media funding – ripping vital services from our communities. Join me in stopping it. Call Congress now. bit.ly/3T68Qgw

Obligatory Ohtani shot. Because future HOFer

Great day for a ballgame ... especially when the #Mets hit 3 dingers!

Pete in full beast mode! #LGM #LFGM

"Pete is a beast" -- Keith Hernandez Yep. A big old polar bear of a beast. #Mets 3 Dodgers 0 top 1 #LGM #LFGM

Mad respect for all the #Mets fans staying up past 1 am for another nail biter. It's only 10 pm here and hell, I'M tired.

As usual, Dodgers won't go down easy. Let's just hope it goes down the same way as last night. #LGM #LFGM

Nice comeback by Megill. Finished strong. #LGM #LFGM

Lindor 💣 on the 2nd pitch of the game! #LGM #LFGM

Not that I don't have total confidence in their ability to sweep the Rockies, but I'd feel so much better if the #Mets can get an insurance run or 2 in the bottom of the 8th. #LGM #LFGM

Clay Holmes gives up a game tying HR in the top of the 5th. Lindor to Holmes in the bottom of the 5th: "I got you, bro" #Mets 4 Rockies 3 #LGM #LFGM

Polar Blast! #LGM #LFGM

Well, that's it for the 2024-25 NBA season for me. It was a disappointing end, but a really entertaining year. We're all blessed to witness this #Knicks era, esp. after some of the basement dweller teams I've seen over the years. Looking forward to next season. Until then ... LET'S GO METS!

Mitch makes that Hart alley oop. KAT was anticipating the rebound.

The Pacers have 30 points off 15 Knicks turnovers. The Knicks have six points off eight Pacers turnovers.

Ironic that TNT just had a mental health month promo, considering how much I'm triggered by the #Knicks performance right now

#Knicks run out of the timeout. Still breathing.

No transition D for the #Knicks. None.

Get Shamet in. We need stops on defense. Mitch is the only one contesting right now.

... and the #Knicks come out cold.

Knicks turnovers: 9 Pacers points off them: 16 Pacers turnovers: 5 Knicks points off them: 2 Story of the half with a score of 58-54, Pacers. Siakam has 16/2/2 for Indy. Anunoby’s 14 leads NY

24 more minutes of stress. #Knicks gonna need to come out fighting and go the distance. ~

OG got away with that knee to Siakam's man area.

#Knicks making it tough on themselves with all of the turnovers and hasty shots.

I like OG and Shamet on the floor together.

Mitch 6 pts, 5 boards. Nice work.

Too many unforced errors. #Knicks need to focus. Some full court defense would be nice too ... every time the Knicks score the Pacers get right on their horse.

I'm geared up. Trying to send some Clyde vibes to the #Knicks for Game 6. ##NewYorkForever

Lindor x2

Anybody else having trouble hearing Gary Cohen on the #Mets broadcast? Sounds like he's off-mike, at least on the MLBtv app

A toast for the entire #Knicks fam

I don't know if I'll be able to watch Game 6. Too do-or-die for the #Knicks. If they do, we get showdown Game 7. If they don't, they die ... and a little piece of me will die with them. I'm already stressed!!!

Brunson.

Knicks' defense isn't allowing the Pacers to have any flow. Locked in across the board right now.

The Brunson burner is on high flame!

I am trying really, really hard to be optimistic about the #Knicks tonight. But no matter how this game goes, this season has been the most fun in a long, long time. I'm grateful for that. #NewYorkForever

KAT getting all Willis Reed up in here!!!

Life! Life! Give my #Knicks.... LIIIIFFFEEE!!!!

Found the #Knicks bar in San Francisco! #NewYorkForever

New investigation from the California Newsroom: www.kqed.org/news/12041326

I have to be in San Francisco on Tuesday. Just scoped out a #Knicks bar where I can watch the game. It's gonna be a vibe.

THE KNICKS STEAL GAME 3 ON THE ROAD 🤯 There have been SIX 20-point comebacks during the 2024-25 NBA playoffs. New York has three of them.

#Knicks win. Exhale.

Every single #Knicks game for me (OK, not just me)
