11 Mexican families founded El Pueblo de Los Angeles in 1781. Do go on why Angelinos shouldn't fly a Mexican Flag.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

I will not call it Fort Bragg. It’s Fort Liberty.

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

The only reason to announce this ahead of time is to try to intimidate protesters. Abbott can play the role of a Temu-knockoff Trump all he wants, but none of us are impressed.

PSA: If you think a guy standing on a vandalized Waymo car with a Mexican flag is a bigger issue than the president calling for the arrest of a governor for no reason, you may have lost the plot.

Everyone should say it: The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But that's not what's interesting about Miller. It's not brains. It's bile.

The GOP spent a ton of money to make Rolando Pablos, a Greg Abbott crony, mayor. They ran an offensive and racist campaign, insulting the intelligence of Latino voters in particular. And they got their asses handed to them. Very proud of my hometown. San Antonio is not MAGA and is not for sale.

The nice thing about #Trump vs #Musk (other than the inevitability and deliciousness of it) is the fact that these two assholes and their minions are beating up on each other for a change instead of the rest of us

I’m not normally a Luddite. I love technology - usually. But the fact that techies and corporations alike are celebrating “advances” that will put millions out of work just shows they don’t care about regular people. AI should be outlawed. And UBI needs to be implemented to protect people.

Trump Burger restaurants in Texas have been inundated with calls from folks asking if they serve Chicken TACOs. They are asking that folks DO NOT CALL the restaurants in Bellville, TX at (979) 270-5062, Flatonia, TX at (361) 865-3893, Kemah, TX at (281) 532-6305, and Houston, TX at (346) 718-2850. 🐔

Companies during Pride c. late 2010’s: Have a rainbow shirt. PURCHASE THIS BISEXUAL TOILET PLUNGER. CONSUME OUR PRODUCTS FA- Companies for 2025 Pride: What’s a gay? Is that a soup flavor? Sure we have pride merch in our signature bisexual beige. Now scram, you queers, before someone notices you

SAPD already declaring that Jonathan Joss wasn’t targeted speaks volumes. They can try to sweep this under the rug all they want. People like me from San Antonio will demand both they, and the District Attorney, hold the killer accountable and be held accountable for their own failures here.

There are 7,591 words in the U.S. Constitution. Not one is "bible", "Jesus", "Judeo", "Christian" or "God". Separation of church and state guarantees ALL Americans the right to practice ANY religion. Or none. Which part of "religious freedom" is not as clear as a church bell?

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country. Otherwise, it’s just racism.

This is so infuriating. This law will destroy a huge industry and cost thousands their jobs at a time where the GOP has already fucked the economy. It will cause huge suffering among people who use THC products to heal themselves. It will deprive the state of much needed tax revenue. Who benefits?

I will enjoy the ensuing chaos when literally every non-Christian religious group out there sues the fuck out of the State of Texas demanding equal time.

Between nonsense like this and the push to remove David Hogg, it’s clear to me that @democrats.org will never let new voices challenge their leadership. It’s time for people to abandon the #Democrats and form a separate progressive party. Fuck the Dems’ nursing home entitlement party

The 80-year recipe stoking America’s Prosperity: 1) Free-market capital investments in brilliant ideas… 2) enabled by Engineering Innovations… 3) based on Science Research in Universities… 4) funded by Grants from the US Government. It’s time more people understood this.

I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal. I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.

@danielkurz.bsky.social blocked replies to this because of the super-ratio he earned. But let’s be clear: he earned it. Comparing protesters against racially-charged legislation to the MAGA thugs who tried to overthrow democracy and hang a VP is asinine nonsense and itself a position of privilege.

I implore both journalists and everyday people alike to stop calling all the cuts to various programs the #GOP wants to make “reforms”. They are not reforms. They are eviscerating programs for those in need to benefit the super rich. Language matters.

Sometimes I just stop, shake my head, and think how ridiculous it is watching my country be destroyed by a demented old man just because some white people are afraid of the future.
