@smith.senate.gov: "I think [Mike Lee] was sort of stunned to be coming face to face with somebody who was really calling him out on his bullshit... The way that people like Mike Lee and others on the right take advantage of the worst kind of human tragedy and political violence... is unacceptable."

Honestly, I get that we need these stories, but, like, the actual story is: Everyone with half a brain knew this — and many, many people said it — but Stephen Miller doesn’t care. And Donald Trump let him start implementing this stupid, hateful plan.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Again, the curfew was set for 8pm like it had been all week. Not sure why they started what they were doing at 4pm. It shouldn’t take 4 hours to clear that area. People should not only be demanding answers from Mayor Bass but also from Sheriff Robert Luna and LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell.

What we are seeing in Los Angeles right now with #NoKings is after several hours of a massive protest that was 100%, law enforcement—abruptly and without provocation—began firing tear gas, flash bangs and pepper balls at protesters. It was broadcast live on air. “Unrest” is on them.

Trying to figure out why this appears to be happening when the curfew isn’t for another few hours The cops are acting like they’re protecting an important witness in the federal building and that everyone outside is trying to get in to harm them like it’s a real life Assault on Precinct 13
