Every riot Every riot EVERY riot is a police riot

A lot of regular people who care deeply about democracy are learning what exactly the police are tonight.

The level of being drunk where you develop the European Roseanne Barr Accent.

When you hear the whining about "police injured on duty" in LA today: the people actually listening to the scanners said LASD fired rubber bullets at LAPD so LAPD tear-gassed LASD. The protestors are gonna get blamed for it, but it was entirely self-inflicted.

Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.

Please be smart about skeeting from the rallies and protests today. Be really smart. I mean REALLY smart. Like, post them tomorrow with no identifying any stuff, smart. I love you guys. Everyone important to you is with you too, be smart. Be cool. Wear SPF and drink water

And Rufo saying *THIS WEEK* that they needed to use unmarked vans to take progressive leaders off the streets normalizes the violent unaccountability. This is exactly what he’s been trying to incite.

Not too many Black folks will be surprised that the very first civilian Trump’s Marines detained in Los Angeles was a Black man. A veteran.

If you’re undocumented, don’t march tomorrow. Stay home. Let the rest of us get this one. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼

Everyone needs to get out there. Crash the databases.

Every new day we collectively live through is stranger than the day before it

any mass media platform where center-right, pro-business politics isn't the dominant paradigm is inevitably going to be maligned in this way by wealthy and powerful people trying to dictate the contours of acceptable discourse they've been playing this game (quite successfully) for a generation

This is better than the water balloons filled with paint idea.

was just talking the other day w June about how "remembering the past, literally at all" seems like a superpower in political circles

If you'll allow me to say it, The Onion is cooking with gas today.

CALIFORN-YEAH

HERE IS A THING that EVERY American can do: 1. Call your Senator. 2. Say the following: "I am requesting that you place a hold on the nomination of Bill Essayli as U.S. Attorney for the Central District of CA for directing federal agents to assault a U.S. Senator." 3. Call other Senator, repeat

That thing we think all the white guys have? Mamdani actually has it.

Not-so-gentle reminder that one senator can use his privilege to pretty much grind the senate to a halt.

*sigh* He’s really going to be president, isn’t he?

Does anybody else think this Australian fragrance was created by a middle-aged woman who banged Gavin Newsom in the 1990s www.perdrisatperfume.com/perfume/p/fu...

This is such an important reminder. Los Angeles is THE WORST PLACE to start this fight.

Yeah it's really something to see a U.S. senator being hit with the same impossible compliance demands that the cops scream at people before shooting them during a stop

Sen. @padilla.senate.gov: "If this is how this admin responds to a senator with a question .. you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country." www.latintimes.com/democratic-s...

honestly one of the most encouraging recent developments is the naked opportunism of Governor Gavin Newsom, and I pray that there are copycats www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Beautiful advice in a dark time:

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Update.

It's the perfect storm of American stupidity and sheepdom that the Republicans have dreamed of. They can create an emergency to justify killing citizens out of thin air and justify it all after the fact and the Americans who voted for will believe it all. Again white people can stop this at any time

Met an active duty member of the military yesterday who filed conscientious objector paperwork in response to deployment of military on U.S. soil. Was told multiple Army have filed, unknown quantities in other branches.

Ample recent history indicates that white men who are weird about their hair shouldn’t be allowed to make policy

Not true. I see you're a luxury watch dealer. I'm also interested in watches. Let me show you how free and easy migration has allowed you to earn a living. 🧵

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

When the president is a felon, I’m fine with everyone else doing daily misdemeanors

Los Angeles 2025

oh crazy, it is as if protests have consistently hurt trump since 2017

The print edition of The Onion is so fucking funny

Remember: "Free speech" is when they can say what they want and when you can say what they want.

this speaks a bit to my argument about leaving twitter. it's not about ideological purity, it is about the fact that it's been turned into a political weapon for people who wish to use it to harm others. it's not the marketplace of ideas - you do not have to participate in this project! very simple!

Im going through a pre-integration high school yearbook from the South and you can't tell me that this kid wasn't passing. Also, yes, high schoolers looked a lot older back then.

Whenever someone says they’re afraid of downtown in American cities, I’m always like, brother, that’s where the Fogos de Chão are.

Yeah my job is pretty cool. My uniform is a tactical vest that’s two sizes too small and a gaiter I bought in a gas station. They send me to sneak into schools to kidnap little kids because people got mad about having to press 1 for English. The president had to warn everyone to stop spitting on me.

It’s the exact opposite of 1992: no unrest, no looting, just cops everywhere firing off their shit at absolutely nothing

These people don’t want to make housing or health care more affordable, they don’t want to raise wages, they want to never again see kendrick lamar at the superbowl, ibram kendi on the bestseller list, ryan coogler at the oscars or ketanji brown jackson on the supreme court bsky.app/profile/kati...
