6/19/25, Hollywood CA. Outside a Home Depot on Sunset Blvd, community members pack up food stands after street vendors were seized in a federal immigration raid.

$1M is a little less than 0.3% of what they pay their roster of players each year...

The quesadilla stand around the corner that let my daughter use the tortilla press hasn’t been out all week. I sent them a few bucks.

Trump's proposal for housing is less of a budget & more of a demolition order. This administration keeps telling regular people they don't matter.

Trump's budget proposal: ❌ Slashes rental assistance ❌ Guts public housing ❌ Kneecaps fair housing enforcement ❌ Cuts homelessness services A budget is a moral document. Trump’s says: "Eat sh*t and die."

I heard there are going to be nationwide 'No Kings' protests on Trump's birthday, so that's fun. Remember, one 10,000 person march is ineffective. Ten 1,000 person marches spread out all over the city is the way to go.

The Trump regime wants to end public housing, set work requirements on federal benefits, and limit federal benefits to 10 years. All to fund his tax cuts. Tax money for the American people? ❌️ Tax money for the billionaire oligarchs? ✅️

Did you know that we were on track to completely solve homelessness by the end of the 70s? But then we started privatizing our housing and ushered in a new housing crisis. People don't talk about this enough

It's incredible when people come up to me, a public housing organizer, to tell me about the issues with public housing. They're just repeating old, untrue propaganda from Nixon and Reagan and don't even realize it. Com visit a project and talk to our members and THEN we can talk!!

Funny enough, the more "radical" I have become, the more sense I have started to make

We need to stop investing in privatized "affordable" housing. It is simply not affordable. Stop scamming poor people.

Homelessness is a symptom of capitalism and we will never solve it by investing in more capitalism. The only path forward is a socialized housing system. Public housing for all!

Organizers should never be afraid to lose a fight in the pursuit of what is right. If we don't ask for what our communities need, we will never get it!

How come more people aren't calling it what it is. A coup

If anyone is interested in covering protests in LA @knockdotla.bsky.social will publish your work!
