Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park.
It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I don’t even think they detained anyone.
Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.

"The fact that they did not offer that courtesy (self surrender) to (Judge Dugan), and instead went out of their way to treat her harshly, I believe is an act of performative cruelty on behalf of the Dept. of Justice, which is not the way any Dept. of Justice should be acting."

These assholes are Netanyahu’s very own Taliban. It’s not anti-Israel to call them out as the lunatics they are. As a Zionist…they make me sick.
