it’s gonna be a long, hot summer isn’t it

Four LAPD officers on horseback surround a man laying on the ground, trample him, and beat him with their polycarbonate "saber" batons.

LAPD assisted by the Huntington Beach Police just came in full force firing munitions and with Horse support. Someone was trampled. Another has a serious head injury.

“I will put out this fire” [pours gasoline onto fire]

wild how he immediately raises his weapon as soon as she turns and he sees the microphone they're shooting to maim the press on purpose y'all

Yes every conservative social media site becomes a tropical rainforest of school shooters and Ponzi schemes but did you know that there is a left-wing social media site where people are rude to the nation’s center-right political pundits

Three examples of workers and labor opposing fascism in Minnesota history. Really worth reading this piece by Amie Stager.

full blown police riot in progress. never let them reframe this.

Her name is Rosie: "A lot of vendors are undocumented and can't be here today. So those of us who can, we gotta show up"

America if the news covered it like those countries Over There

I hate fascists, man

They're tear-gassing babies in strollers and elderly Chicano community leaders in Los Angeles. This is a completely peaceful march.

Still waiting for the article that’s like “these right wing militia members are in a bubble and it would be healthier if they exposed themselves to left wing ideas”

lmao The Sun has a livestream of the “LA riots” on YouTube and when you click on it it’s a bunch of troops standing around doing nothing you can literally hear birds singing in the background what a time to be alive

FYI everyone Huge egg recall www.cdc.gov/salmonella/o...

It's never been more clear that the leaders of the Democratic Party are not going to save us

I… huh? What are the police firing back at

Ah but who took the stock photo? Correct, George Soros

Have national Dems, who claim to want to "win back" the working class, said anything yet about ICE injuring and arresting the head of the SEIU of California? truthout.org/articles/ice...

US Northern Command releases statement confirming California National Guard members being sent to LA to "protect federal personnel and federal property" and that "active-duty Marines also may be employed" as needed x.com/USNorthernCm...

It's not going to be enough to abolish ICE. There are going to need to be prosecutions.

If you want to prepare for a spicy summer 3M mask with extra filters. Ideally a full face respirator. Soft body armor of some kind for impact munitions. Doesn't have to be ballistic. Helmet. Can be ballistic. Can be bump. Even a bicycle helmet can save your life from a grenade.

I know that many don't want to hear this but we've been moving towards this current state of affairs over the past 65 years. And it's really been a bipartisan project. The expansion of the carceral state is the fuel for fascism. Folks have been trying to make this case for a long time.

DHS UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter just dropped off thousands of rounds of impact munitions. There were several of these canisters on board.

We hear about how pro-immigrant side is extreme. There is literally nothing more extreme than this statement. Being willing to sacrifice the country’s foundations for an evil goal

This is the only meme you need.

The authorities have successfully achieved their goal of making protestors look cool as hell.

💯

interesting to note that 400 protesters have monopolized all of LASD’s enforcement power because they tried to help ICE arrest half a dozen guys working at a Home Depot if you’re scoring on efficiency, the protesters are winning

folks I've been tear gassed something like 200 times and maced at least fifty or so times. once i was soaked in mace to my underwear. ignore any neat scientific tricks people give you for beating this stuff -Water for tear gas -sudecon wipes for mace -if no sudecon, wash mace with water

Didn’t expect this from Scientific American but here we are. (Article from 2020 but everything still relevant including COVID precautions)

The basic fallacy in chasing votes by being "tough on immigration" is that the modal American's position on the issue is "Deport the Bad ones and keep the Good ones," and they alone know who is which, and that simply does not translate into workable policy. So this kind of gestapo stuff (1/2)

Many Border Patrol vehicles and other unmarked cars just exited the anti-ICE protest area in Paramount, California. They were met with fierce resistance from protesters, with a number of vehicles being visibly damaged.

Greetings! A large immigration operation and subsequent protest in Paramount, CA has led to a large amount of gas and “less lethal” munitions. Situation ongoing. Will update as I can.

I can think of some very entertaining outcomes

the federal government is trying to detail lawyers from other agencies to help the overload at DOJ. judges are denying routine extensions because government attorneys are so overworked and late on filings. everything helps.

military vehicles are being moved into dc for trump’s birthday parade. don’t recognize this country anymore

Everyone on Bluesky is welcome here
