I was a medic at the Santa Ana protests in OC today.

I watched police fire tear gas, flash bangs, & rubber bullets into crowds of men, women, & children.

Other medics and I were clearly marked with red crosses, and the police were targeting us.

One of the most fucked up things I’ve ever seen.

REAL IMAGES from today's peaceful protest in Los Angeles…there was even a musical performance! Legacy media needs to start covering the reality and not just the provocative bits.

This took a while to get done, but I've chronicled my day among the protesters in Los Angeles, and the idea that this is anything but a celebration of cultural heritage and a firm, nonviolent demand to protect family, friends and neighbors is totally ridiculous.

The protesters are being called unspeakably violent by the Trump administration. I mostly saw clergy sit-ins and Tejano bands.

Listen to more classical music. For every like, I shall recommend a good recording.

To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

A way to do some good today: Send a free virtual Valentine to a child at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles by Feb 14. A secret Valentine will donate $2 for every card sent!
Send a valentine and bring joy to a child in the hospital!
Being a kid in the hospital is hard. During a fun holiday like Valentine's Day, it's even harder.

Since COSTCO is my jam, I’m going to share some benefits many of us (members too) may not be aware of.

1) COSTCO Travel—offers members the ability to book destinations, hotels, and cruises through the club with serious deals that it passes along to members.
