The Trump administration is yet again demanding you accept the narrative that random Americans with no history of violence suddenly became aggressive but the militarized force occupying city streets with a long, well-documented pattern of violence is actually the innocent victim.

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this?
Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids.
She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms.
Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen.

Arturo Obrego, a 77-year-old army veteran who hitchiked from Huntington Beach is going viral for getting hit with wooden baton by officers on horses and knocked down during today’s peaceful “No Kings” protest in DTLA. @TheGlutster ran into him at Union Station a couple of hours after the incident.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies.
In Denmark:
- Health care and college are free.
- The starting wage is $22/hr.
- Paid parental leave is 1 year.
- Paid vacation is 6 weeks.
- All workers get pensions.

We are excited for Vermont Ave to get a bus lane!
However, Measure HLA *also* requires the street to get a bike lane - something @metrolosangeles.bsky.social is ignoring.
THIS THURSDAY the board will vote on the project.

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social’ highway program is making everything worse: it’s increasing traffic (despite its claimed intent), it’s making roads less safe, it’s wasting billions, and it’s making climate change worse and increasing the risk of things like catastrophic fires. It must end.
I wrote a new op ed about @metrolosangeles.bsky.social. Their insatiable desire to spend billions to widen highways is not only making traffic worse, it’s making FIRES more likely in LA. It must end.

Opinion: Metro needs to stop making traffic — and climate disasters — worse
A plan to widen the 605 and other freeways will increase, not help, congestion. That's bad for Angelenos and our environment.
