General Strike Los Angeles

Sign petition for SB 42 - California Clean Money Sign the petition for SB 42, the California Fair Elections Act, to allow public financing of campaigns so elections are won, not bought!

PLEASE SIGN! This would MASSIVELY help CA elections stay out of big money hands!

We agree it is too slow. People are hesitant to put their name on a list, but remember you can use an alias & a masked/new email address!

Don’t Let Them Break You: Turning Chaos Into Collective Strength Why Holding Our Emotional Equilibrium Is Political Action

Absolutely needed!!!

Democratic Group Files Ethics Complaint Against Rep. Rob Bresnahan Over Private Helicopter Disclosure Bresnahan’s counsel dismissed the complaint as “incorrect.”

🚨 NEW: We filed a complaint with the Office of Congressional Conduct, which needs to launch an investigation and hold Rep. Bresnahan accountable. #PA08

I’ve had a number of chats this last year with industry friends about what the next stage of the media ecosystem might look like, and we’ve all agreed that print papers are the likeliest to make a comeback

The Onion is proving that point, honestly, and boy howdy is it exciting

A collage-style graphic that blends symbols of mutual aid and community care. On one side, a red Stop the Bleed tourniquet and a pair of gloved hands represent trauma care and first aid education. Nearby, a medic’s kit with gauze and bandages signals street medic readiness. In the center, a set of clean syringes, a bottle labeled naloxone, and a small harm reduction card represent overdose prevention and safer use practices. To the right, menstrual pads and a medication packet symbolizing abortion pills highlight reproductive health access. The overall tone emphasizes solidarity, resilience, and empowerment through knowledge, skill-sharing, and resource accessibility. The image conveys that care—whether through first aid, harm reduction, or reproductive autonomy—is a form of collective power and resistance.

First aid = mutual aid.

Whether it’s Stop the Bleed training, street medic education, harm reduction via clean needles/naloxone, or access to menstrual products, prophylaxis & abortion pills—equipping communities with the means to protect health and wellness is ESSENTIAL. ⛑️ 🩹

WE KEEP US SAFE! 💪🏼

@pbsnews.org @msnbc.com @cnn.com Every news program must end each broadcast by highlighting a different person wrongfully abducted by masked armed agents.

Because an exploitative capitalist system has bled us dry. So we have to start with making our communities self reliant, building mutual aid networks, and making sure we can distribute resources to those who need them. Join us.

Alt text for Accessibility ✅ Examples, Tips & Best Practices Learn how effective alt text supports accessibility and explore tips, examples, and best practices to improve your content for all users.

We 🖤 alt text!!

All of us should be using alternative text anytime we’re posting on this, and other, platforms. Content about resistance and revolution must be accessible to all.

As we say in disability advocacy: nothing about us without us.

Accessible resistance is effective resistance!

Exactly

Court affirmed stops violated 4th amendment rights, “& communities would be harmed if those protections were suspended. The court found no reasonable suspicion for the stops, unlawful detentions, and phone seizures”. Targeting based on race, location, language & work is unconstitutional👇👇👇

Hey LA! This just in from Public Counsel, a not profit LA law firm. “The 9th circuit just denied the fed gov’t attempt to pause key protections in our case challenging unlawful immigration raids in LA.”

👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

The US is complicit in what’s happening in Gaza and this will be another black stain on our record. We the people have to stand up.

We have alllllll had the vision of just walking off the job. A general strike could make that dream a reality 💪

Tesla Diner SoCal Protest (#TeslaTakedown All Hands on Deck) START: Saturday, July 26, 2025 • 05:00 PM END: Sunday, July 27, 2025 • 07:00 PM LOCATION: Tesla Diner • 7001 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90038 US HOST CONTACT INFO: takedowntesla@gmail.com

We, the People find Elon Musk guilty of: Aiding and abetting the effective dismantling of American democracy Unilaterally killing hundreds of thousands of US-allied innocents around the world Allowing his "Full Self-Driving" fraud to kill hundreds of his own paying customers Stoking hate against vulnerable groups and boosting dangerous conspiracy theories 24/7 on his rightwing extremist propaganda site

WE SAY HELL NO We're calling on ALL #TeslaTakedown SoCal crews to come together outside Elon's Diner this Saturday 7/26 AND Sunday 7/27 between 5pm-7pm to send a clear message that Elon is STILL guilty; that we STILL demand accountability; and that we WILL NOT REST until the world has internalized the truth that TESLA FUNDS FASCISM. To Tesla's impotent, bought-and-paid-for Board of Directors: Hell no, we won't go! Time to fire your CEO! Important: Tesla Takedown is a 100% peaceful protest movement. We oppose violence, vandalism and destruction of property. This protest is a lawful exercise of our First Amendment right to peaceful assembly. #TeslaTakedown #BoycottTesla #BoycottMusk #MuskMustFall

📢 @teslatakedown.com

🚨 ALL HANDS ON DECK in LA

We're calling on ALL SoCal crews to come together at the newly opened TESLA DINER this weekend.

Elon thinks he can destroy democracy, take innocent lives, and celebrate with a milkshake?

We say HELL NO ✊
