To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

I think what's bothering me about all these statements I'm seeing from politicians that are variations of "Israeli hostages and Palestinians are returning to their homes, yay" is that Israelis are returning to their homes and Palestinians are returning to uninhabitable post apocalyptic rubble.

We implement tariffs that cripple our soybean industry, the Chinese start buying from Argentina instead, then we bailout the Argentinian economy to the tune of $20B. Yet we have no money to feed our children. Welcome to the Trump First economy.

Stop crediting Trump for the US government

Authoritarians gain power by building a fearsome reputation. Trump is the face of a posse of people and groups. We must not strengthen him, or allow them to hide.

Huge congratulations to Maria Corina Machado who has won the Nobel Imperialism Prize for steadfastly supporting Israel's genocide and calling on the US to invade her own country so she can be installed as puppet leader while Trump takes Venezuela's oil ♥️

The whole world watched Britain pretending to believe the UN aid agency was a terrorist organisation, then we all watched as UNRWA was replaced by criminals firing machine guns at starving people trying to get bags of flour, while press and politicians pretended not to understand what was happening.
