I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

It's not just Zohran Mamdani in New York. Democrats are having a big moment with young voters again.

Here's a recent FL special. Enthusiasm among 18-30 year olds is off the charts for those registered as Dems, but not for young Republicans.

this is not going to be a very popular take On Here but, cringe posting aside, I’m actually going to give some real credit to Schumer today

I hate the guy and I want him primaried but on this specific bill he held the whole caucus together and got a lot of stuff stripped out of the bill

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.

The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.

This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

There are so many things I want to say right now, but really, none of those things will make a difference. Instead, please fill this thread with information about similar resources that will still be here in 30 days.

Alex Padilla grew up in the Valley as the child of immigrants. He has a mechanical engineering degree from MIT. He got into politics only after California passed prop 187, a horribly racist bill banning undocumented immigrants from attending public schools. (It was ruled unconstitutional)
Let’s not forget that Alex Padilla is the first ever Latino to represent California in the United States Senate.

Men are pretending to be ICE to abduct women as if this wasn't the most predictable thing to come out of allowing masked goons with no ID to snatch people off the streets.

LAPD’s Chief says they still have no idea what the military’s mission in LA is.

There are no open deconfliction channels between the military and local law enforcement.

Having multiple groups with weapons operating in the same area with no way to communicate is fucking insane.

Speaking for myself, I see only one reason why Mexican flags in Los Angeles are more offensive than Irish flags in Boston, although I'd be interested to hear if anybody has another explanation.
