Human Rights Watch typically focuses on atrocities far from the United States, but sadly now must shine its powerful global spotlight here in Los Angeles.

The best, most accurate look at the DC occupation is coming from the locals: local news & local residents capturing violent arrests, peaceful protests, safe tourist spots overrun with bored troops. It's a powerful reality check on Trump propaganda.

Hi 👋🏼 @prisonculture.bsky.social My 7th graders are in need of snacks to help get them through the day. A lot of times, the school provided breakfast/lunch is simply not enough. Any donation or RP would be appreciated.

Your car is not your castle — it’s a constitutional gray zone.
It doesn’t have the same Fourth Amendment protections as homes. You can refuse to open the door of your home if officers don’t have a warrant; you can’t refuse to step out of your car.
