a side note: this is as frontal an assault on the US by Israel as I've ever seen, and there have been some bad ones. This is Israel blowing up the planned negotiations in Oman tomorrow between the Trump envoy and Iran. This is Netanyahu saying the US can't do diplomacy he doesn't sign off on.

Bibi and Trump are both instinctively incapable of *not* betraying an ally, which creates an odd circle.

Government staff used "Code words [that] included special project, SP-GB, GB and special project — GB...the use of G* as a code...returns any word starting with G, resulting in a deluge of records 'wholly impossible to sort through,' [Commissioner Patricia] Kosseim noted." Nothing to hide, eh?

A great collaboration between local government, landlords, and non-profits to build “Meanwhile Spaces” for artists — and use of vacant buildings.

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

they are trying to set up a military dictatorship WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF THE MILITARY with 40% approval ratings

Despicable. Trump’s goons are roughing up and handcuffing @padilla.senate.gov as he tries to ask a simple question. This is what dictatorship looks like. Watch:

Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

Cult idea: people who religiously eschew asking any and all questions of AIs in favour of asking each other on public internet forums, thereby wielding outsize social influence through helping train the AIs that everyone else uses

At a time humanity needs to band together to address shared problems, angry old men are instead attacking our global rules, institutions, and empathy. My kid asked me if people can get the world’s temperature back down. I wish we collectively had a better answer for our children and their children.

You know what would have saved a lot of lives long before the general public was ready to pump bodies into bomber aircraft and start up mustangs? Taking in refugees. Our refugee norms were constructed in light of our all-pervasive moral failure. Why are we turning back?

Get yourself to a protest this Saturday. Spread the word. Shit has escalated significantly in just a handful of days and we need to get out there and show big, collective anger about it. Don't break shit or start fights, just show up in numbers. www.nokings.org#map

Josh Hawley is using the regime’s manufactured crisis to begin criminalizing opposition organizations. He’s launching a Senate investigation into immigrant rights organizations. This is how dictators make it illegal to oppose them.
