seconding this. if you get hit directly in the head with an impact munitions like this or a grenade go immediately to the ER. don't stay to protest with your friends. Don't try to be "tough". your night or day is done. seek medical care

This is Vera - a service dog for one of our parishioners with epilepsy. Vera can smell when a seizure is coming on. She always comes to the communion rail and receives a blessing - though she always looks slightly disappointed that she isn’t getting that small white “cookie” everyone else is eating.

its always fun when “violent protest” becomes a discourse du jour and when you look up what that violence entails its guys dragging a dumpster into the road to stop the cops from shooting them in the face with tear gas canisters

BREAKING: My sources say Trump’s National Guard move in LA wasn’t just revenge — it’s part of a larger plan tied to June 14th protests scheduled all over the country.

Yep. Wonder if Trump is hoping his big parade will distract from whatever goes down at June 14 No Kings?

When we see someone in uniform, we should see someone who has decided to serve their nation to protect us. We should see a friend, a brother, a sister. The decision to serve should be given respect. They put their lives on the line. Uniformed troops should never be used to police Americans. Never.

If they actually do activate Pendleton and the USMC…there are only 2 ways from there to LA. Both easily obstructed (and in fact often obstructed on the best of days lol) The 5 and the 15 basically. Once they’d get to OC, RC they can split to 91, 405 and options increase. But 5/15/91 easy 2 block

I notice people calling what we’re seeing these last couple of days “riots.” I was here during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. That’s not what this is. Local police can handle this, but ICE needs to back off—especially with these amateur hires who don’t know what the f*ck they’re doing.

Tear gas is a chemical weapon and an abortifacient banned by the Geneva Protocol. If soldiers used it against armed combatants, they could be prosecuted for war crimes. www.scientificamerican.com/article/poli... (from 2022)

I loathe Musk as much as anyone else but for a sitting president to openly threaten a private citizen over what political donations he or she chooses to make is a reminder of how authoritarian this country is becoming by the day - by the hour even!

The cops that grabbed this New Yorker are part of a secretive, aggressive unit that's particularly close to Mayor Eric Adams. I recently did a detailed investigation of the unit, which has often executed on Adam's priorities -- and has a long of abuses. www.propublica.org/article/eric...

Two babies have died from whooping cough in Kentucky. Neither they nor their parents had been vaccinated. The current whooping cough outbreak in the U.S. hasn’t grabbed the media spotlight as much as measles has, but it’s important to update your vaccination if you’re going to be around babies.

ICE is detaining people in LA in a basement with no beds, no air, no light and not enough food and water. These are crimes.

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade. They departed Texas 5 days ago. What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel. (🎥 DW)

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

Despite the mine operator's poor record of violating worker safety, pollution and environmental regulations, the Trump admin greenlit the expansion of a coal mine in Montana. (Most of that coal is exported to Asia btw.) With dramatic staff cuts at MSHA, there's no way this won't end in tragedy...
