If you’re looking for quality independent reporting on what’s happening in Los Angeles, I’ve put together a starter pack for it. If you’d like to be added or know an indie who should be added, hmu

Yes.

New from 404 Media: DHS flew Predator drones over the LA anti-ICE protests. As well as flight data this is further corroborated with air traffic control audio. The audio mentions "TROY" (callsign used by DHS) and "Q-9" (shorthand for MQ-9, the Predator B drones) www.404media.co/dhs-flew-pre...

😡

As they should.

👏👏👏👏

Crows are so amazing at being aware of and responding to their surroundings and threats.

Let this sink in. Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence. During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

👏👏👏

Groan. 😆

Dozens of journalists were assaulted by law enforcement in Los Angeles this weekend. The press were just doing their job -- a sacred one explicitly protected by law. Press rights orgs will follow up collectively tomorrow. Tonight, I emailed evidence to local/state/federal officials. My sign off:

Of course it has. 🙄

This is precisely correct.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

Happy. A tiny bit of positivity.

Dogters! Good one!

Yes. Thank you.

Prejudicial as well as projection…

I said healthcare is a human right and now Elon Musk is posting about “suicidal empathy” at 3 am:

😂

"This is what we were voting for!" From a friend in academia: >>I was with a public health professor from [major university] last weekend and he said that NIH is now euthanizing whole cohorts of animals from animal studies because there is nobody around to feed them<< Great work.

Love it!

😮 🕊️

This fight is so fucking funny. I mean how can you not read this with the voices of two seven year old boys. “You stupid, you can’t play at my house no more” “Well, you mean, I’m not gonna give you my dwagon wocket”

That’s awful. 🤡 @thedailybeast.bsky.social www.thedailybeast.com/reeling-hous...

😕 pretty much

Good!

Good!
