New on Knock: Trump’s proposed budget completely eliminates SNAP-Ed, which served 90 million Americans. This little-known program powers early childhood education, healthcare clinics, and food and produce distribution—all of which could soon vanish. knock-la.com/republicans-...

My relatives keep asking me how we're doing in the riots. I say, you mean the police riots? Cuz no one else is rioting.

My read: Trump's side thinks they're going to lose. They were hoping to delay in order to get more groundwork set in LA, but if there's a looming injunction the NG is not going to be looking to dig in.

"Law enforcement found a hit list in the Minnesota suspect’s car that contained nearly 70 names, a law enforcement official briefed on the matter told CNN. The names included abortion providers, pro-abortion rights advocates, and lawmakers in Minnesota and other states...."

Trump has not only symbolically condoned political violence, he's *materially enabled it* with the powers of his office by officially pardoning the traitors against America of the January 6th insurrection. Every other unhinged right-wing lunatic can see that and do the math

LA popping off all over. Photos from a member in Glendale: “Honestly it was fucking packed. I’ve never seen a Glendale protest like this. The turn out is unreal.”

The man who tried to assassinate Trump was a gun-loving Trump supporter who later turned on him. Right-wing media blamed Democrats, because of course. The alleged Minnesota shooter is an anti-abortion Christian nationalist w/ a list with other Dems as targets. They're still blaming liberals.

Notice the difference in how Padilla and Schiff talk about the protests. Padilla says we must protest peacefully "but we can't cower." Schiff was on the senate floor yesterday conceding Republican talking points about how there were some "vandals and miscreants" committing "vile acts" in L.A.

🧵I think it's worth remembering three facts: 1. Israel is the only nation in the Middle East with nuclear weapons. 2. Iran does not have nuclear weapons. 3. Iran has a nuclear *program* that it says is for energy purposes. Is Iran lying about its intentions? 🤷‍♀️ But it doesn't have weapons now.

So, pretty much *exactly* what I've been expecting for the past two weeks is happening, and I'll explain exactly *WHY* I have been expecting Israel to bomb the everliving fuck out of Iran Note: It has nothing to do with nuclear warheads, and EVERYTHING to do with Netanyahu and criming 1/x

a side note: this is as frontal an assault on the US by Israel as I've ever seen, and there have been some bad ones. This is Israel blowing up the planned negotiations in Oman tomorrow between the Trump envoy and Iran. This is Netanyahu saying the US can't do diplomacy he doesn't sign off on.
