This is literally the type of gag they did in silent films over 100 years ago. Keystone Cops. Except it’s real in Los Angeles this month. LASD and LAPD also were shooting at each other his weekend. Can’t make this stuff up. youtu.be/GwUUUqgfu-E?...

"Razor blade throat" is exactly how it felt both times I had COVID early in the pandemic. (Also, if I ever join a punk band, I've got an idea for a name ...)

TIL the National Anthem has had a Spanish language version since 1945, commissioned by the White House. This is the most perfect thing for the Dodgers. Maybe front office didn't want it, but you know Jackie Robinson, Fernando Valenzuela, and Vin Scully are cheering her from heaven.

I had a few things to say on TV today about why the Los Angeles Press Club reached this point where we had to sue over LAPD's misconduct toward journalists. Thank you Spectrum News 1, which does a great job shining a spotlight on important civic issues in our community. #JournalismIsNotACrime

Take 90 seconds to watch this whole thing. Such a succinct encapsulation of both history and the moment we're in. He paraphrases: "The arc of moral history is long and it bends toward justice. But it doesn't bend by itself."

In 1776, George Washington told the Continental Army they were fighting for the “fate of unborn millions.” He meant her. The kids are gonna be alright. Sounds like someone got an A+ in civics.

In 2021, I made a slideshow based on 50+ incidents of police misconduct toward journalists. It covered all California over a 12 month period. The legislature responded with new laws to protect press. I just made a new one. It's bigger. It's worse. And it's just one week in Los Angeles.

Can confirm. For reporters covering this, it's in PACER or give me your email and I can forward a copy.

There's a recording in the thread below which may help, but if anyone has additional evidence (and source!) of LAPD and LASD shooting each other please let me know ASAP. I know some lawyers who would very much like to see it today, and they care enough to be working all Sunday night on it.
