Billie just gave away 20% of her net worth. I feel like we should promote #give20shorties

And, in LA we had Banda and taco trucks.

Jimmy Kimmel’s show has been cancelled - The New Disney #Trump #JimmyKimmel #Disney #LUBACH

This comment is spot on.

And, I would add that their news is not going to tell them what we want them to hear, regardless of what flag we fly.

Angelinos aren’t forgetting.

Musk could fund Libertarians in key midterm races in places like New Hampshire, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Florida, the Dakotas, etc. That could make Trump less powerful.

(I know there is a movement to have Musk fund Democrats, but they should refuse his money.)

Ditto

Instruction #1 in Timmothy Snyder’s <<On Tyranny>> “Do not obey in advance,” so don’t surrender your values before you are forced to.

And, by correctly, we mean the point at which everyone acquiesces to your opinion. Remind you of anyone?

I was also in South Central LA in ‘92 when Bush sent the tanks in.

My cousin was tear-gassed by Reagan in Berkeley as a child.

We stand up when we have to in CA. The rest of the nation thanks us for it later.

It is because I spent significant time in the Soviet Union and in China in the ‘80’s that I take the stance that I do.

It is about the legitimacy of immigration. If we allow their fear of hyphenated Americans to rule, then we have already lost. No point in going to the rally at all. Stay home and watch TV.

Trump pulls history out of his ass anyway. He’ll make up another reason.

We’ve always had a lot of Mexican flags. We are LA. Has anyone noticed that our name is literally a Spanish word?

If we try to behave so MAGA is not triggered, we will live very limited lives.

You have clearly never watched Mexico play soccer at the Rose Bowl.

One drawback for Russia of a nuclear strike on Western Europe is that weather goes West to East. I was in Moscow just after Chernobyl. High School students were making in-home Geiger counters.

USDA accidentally fired officials working on bird flu and is now trying to rehire them An Agriculture Department spokesperson told NBC News that officials are "working to swiftly rectify the situation."

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people.

And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

“Art is the weapon…”

You hit with this one!

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

We should be doing more to pit their egos against them. They are not friends. With enough pushing against weak egos, we might be able to get a few billionaires to hostilely take over Tesla. Remember the Jiujitsu grudge match phase? There is no way these other oligarchs are happy under Musk’s thumb.

Gotcha

Looks like they started construction in July.

But…the article is from 2023.

I spent most of my 22-years in the Army as an aviator in and out of line units flying OH-58's and UH-60's.We lost more aircrews in peacetime training accidents than combat. It's a very dangerous business. Having the President smear them as their families are freshly mourning is unforgivable.

Make the connection.

History will remember Milley as a patriot.

Did your child lose their book collection in the Los Angeles fires? Are you a teacher at a school that lost its library or your classroom library? Whether you need one book or a whole library, we can replace your books. 📚

Everyone else, please boost this post so we can connect with those in need. 🙏

I see lots of advice about how to help after the fires.

From my experience, I’d say:

You can’t help perfectly.

Help anyway!

I dont know who to credit
