Sad to see it go! They hosted our karaoke party fundraisers back when we first started, incredible fun.
We should have learned our lesson with felon disenfranchisement. Bigoted selective enforcement has left a lot of BIPOC without voting rights.
There’s still time to act 👇🏼
Trump's word means very little. Plus, a sneaky ICE workaround is already in place: 3 World Cup host cities—Miami, Dallas, & Houston—have 287(g) agreements with the Trump admin, empowering local police to conduct immigration enforcement (& to get reimbursed for the salaries+benefits of officers).
One of the most fundamental divides in our politics comes down to when you see an encampment, or see people at a bus stop struggling with addiction, do you want them to actually get help and get better? Or do you just not want to see “those people” in your neighborhood and want them gone?
Orban’s party getting absolutely crushed is an enormous victory against the international fascist movement. Pop that champagne
went to check out the techno rave outside Parliament and I don't think I have the data allowance to share a video from it but let me tell you: there sure is a techno rave outside Parliament right now, celebrating Orban getting ousted
If in 2026, you are STILL saying 'why didn't X survivor/victim of sexual assault go to the cops or prosecutors?' then you cannot be trusted to drive a car or live by yourself because you are ignorant.
The dildo brigade has come to Los Angeles. Couple dozen people have come to the Metropolitan Detention Center to protest ICE, bringing bags of dildos with them. This is lowkey surreal to see in person
lol, lmao, etc
Cal State Channel Islands philosophy lecturer Jonathan Caravello has just been ACQUITTED of assaulting ICE/CBP last summer while protesting a brutal Ventura County cannabis farm raid! His defense argued he threw a tear gas canister away to protect protesters. The jury acquitted him in two hours.
LAPD misconduct has defunded the City of Los Angeles to the tune of $430 million. That will soar after new claims the past few months.
Karen Bass has been an elected official 20+ years. As mayor she appointed the chief and entire police commission.
She’s never said ONE WORD about this in public.
Today, all good people celebrate the April 9, 1865 surrender of the traitor Lee and his slavery-supporting army at Appomattox to the U.S Army led by General Grant.
New on Knock: In February, hundreds of students across Los Angeles and Orange Counties collaborated on coordinated walkouts in protest of racist ICE/CBP raids.

"Where are the student protests at?" Right here.
New on Knock: Two stories of student activism
Alhambra students organize a walkout to protest ICE and racial injustice. “We shouldn’t have to fight against mistakes that adults made.”

Statement on LA28's human rights strategy from a coalition of anti-trafficking advocates: "the strategy summarizes existing federal and state protections, relies almost entirely on law enforcement, and commits zero new dollars to prevention, victim support or independent evaluation of its efforts"
The “human rights strategy” for LA28 is like 20 pages of total content with like a page and a half on the risks for unhoused communities caused by LA28 and their main recommendation for people facing discriminatory displacement is to call Trump’s HUD directly. Unbelievable.
New on Knock: Pressure is building for the city to end LAPD's partnership with Flock Safety. The surveillance company has come under fire for its lax data security and sharing information with ICE/CBP.

“Democrats should not withdraw this growing demand for Trump’s removal” bc
1) “Trump chickening out does not obligate the rest of us to unsee what we all saw.”
2) “it’s correct to insist on a debate over Trump’s fitness for office in light of everything that’s happened in the past month.”
We shouldn’t have to live like this.
The people who can punish them are the department (which won’t), the DA (who supports the fascists), and the city attorney (who is worse)
"People who have never slept with their things under their arm don’t understand what getting your possessions taken feels like. Documents, medication, and faded family photos aren’t trash. They’re proof of identity, the thin scaffolding that keeps you connected to services"
"Why don't Americans–"

From now on, before anyone in the U.S. says anything, other countries should ask: "Do you condemn your fascist regime?"
So many people here expect everyone to first condemn X regime to speak about any injustice. Let's see how it feels when the shoe is on the other foot.
One of the things to remember when seeing things like this, is that the media political establishment can only conceive of problems that are soluble by the solutions they approve of. If something is intractable within the bounds of Business As Usual, they will simply pretend that's not true.
In Korea, when the president declared martial law after midnight and erected barricades in Seoul, congressional reps from all parties ran into the streets, yanked ak47s from the army at the barricades, broke down the locked door to Congress, repealed the martial law order, and arrested the president
