Los Angeles peeps—spread the word about ICE. We won’t know for sure until it happens, but better safe than sorry. Be prepared.

This was a really fun interview and gives #AllForCITY fans great insight into the biggest stories in MLS to follow heading into the 2025 season. It's also the kickoff to our go live week coverage, leading into our live pod at Blue Jay Brewing at 7pm Thursday!

White supremacy is the biggest threat to our country.

About 30 Hispanic-owned businesses in St. Louis will temporarily close next week. It's part of a coordinated effort to highlight the contributions of immigrants to the region's economy and culture in the wake of Trump’s mass deportation plans.

How can the federal govt tell private companies who they can hire or how they can hire? Explain to me like I’m a 5yo 😖

Go get your MMR and tDap boosters NOW and any other shots you might need

“We have to tell Elon Musk nobody elected your ass!!!” 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Curious, did Janelle Monae call out Snoop for performing for drumpf or just Nelly? I get they were doing a Nelly song, but just wondered if Snoop's involvement was vilified in the same way #musicsky 🤔

We need Democrats ready & willing to do whatever is necessary to solve problems for the American taxpayers. Looking for anyone across the aisle to work with is a waste of time and our money
