I mean, can you imagine Edward R. Murrow saying, let's hold off on covering this Little Rock crisis because CBS has been promoting my Person to Person interview with Marilyn Monroe?

Trump is at a UFC fight tonight as Pentagon announces it is deploying federalized National Guard troops in California. Very weird/disturbing alignment. Historic moment perhaps. Pool reports included here from Myah Ward White House reporter

There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

If you’re documenting the ICE atrocities, make sure to back up your data. Don’t assume it’s safe in the cloud or on social media. Keep a copy (or multiple copies). I also strongly recommend journaling what you witnessed by hand if possible. Tell your story. The world is watching.

I thought I would be safe if I positioned myself with all the cable news crews off to the side away from all of the protesters. But nope. I was wrong. The feds shot pepper balls at us, forcing us down Alameda Street with everyone else. @lataco.bsky.social

L.A. is a Mexican-American city. The majority of the population is made up of racial and ethnic minorities. We are all happy living together and really do not want to see our friends, neighbors and families being terrorized by federal robo-cops. This is bullshit.

“We’ve never had every major WA reef affected in a single event. This is the worst coral bleaching event recorded for WA reefs” “This is what 1.5C above the preindustrial [average temperature] means. Things will get a lot worse before it gets better, and that’s what makes me sad.” Dr James Gilmore

The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets. These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.

A necessary condition for preventing a global slide into totalitarian darkness must be to break up the tech monopolies. Governments still possess the power to do this.

Absolutely wild that LA has deployed LAPD, DHS has deployed both ICE and CBP, now the white house is calling in the national guard. You'd think the wildest riot in history was going down in LA right now, but it's actually just a bunch of protestors mostly just standing around holding signs.

Good lordy, this. this is such a common cop move that dozens with the Phoenix PD were caught passing around a challenge coin a few years ago that was referencing both a neo-Nazi slogan and shooting protesters in the groin.

Because it's 2025, and most people in the US still don't know what their own military looks like... ~1 in every 7 US Marines nationwide, is from California. ~1 in every 4 US Marines nationwide, is Hispanic or Latino.
