I used to be able to keep these DAILY MEMOs to under 3 minutes, the last couple videos have been impossible to. ICE is escalating in Los Angeles, just look at the article version with every incident highlighted. This is only what we could confirm, only what we know of. @lataco.bsky.social

Huntington Beach, CA - As Patriot Front, Ryan Sanchez and Neo-Nazi groups are leaving they began to pummel one man in a leather jacket, who told me he was there to mourn Kirk but “hated Nazis.”
Attackers include members of the GDL and Robert Wheldon.

I’m pissed off about this. This man was slumped over on the sidewalk in the heat and was unresponsive when I asked if he wanted me to get him water.
The city didn’t send a single ambulance or medical professional, just cops

ICE raided the Westlake Home Depot in Los Angeles this morning. LATU organizers snapped some photos from the raid—one sticks out: ICE agents rolling up in a Penske rental truck.
Wonder where they got the idea😬
