In 1941, thinking about acquiescence to Hitler, FDR quoted Ben Franklin: “Those, who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” It’s a message for the billionaires & others capitulating to Trump.

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city.
They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.

@lataco.bsky.social first began as a blog documenting local Mexican cuisine. Now, it’s an essential reporting powerhouse to the city as Trump’s mass deportation plot unfolds.

The New Yorker estimates Trump has made $3.4 billion from the presidency. I told them, "The American people ultimately don’t like people using public office to enrich themselves. It’s like a President turning a national park into his summer home—and, in this case, maybe building a skyscraper there."
