Jessica Tarlov: “Gavin Newsom is speaking for a majority of Americans. Right before we came on air, there was a new Quinnipiac Poll that was released. Donald Trump: -12 approval in general, -11 on immigration, -16 on deportation. He has taken his best issue and decimated it.”

An editorial cartoon of MLK standing in front of chaos and wreckage with the words, "I plan to lead another non-violent march tomorrow"

Posting this 1967 Birmingham News editorial cartoon for all the people who don't realize that this is how MLK was viewed by a big chunk of white America.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

BREAKING: An enormous peaceful protest has broken out in Los Angeles in defiance of Donald Trump’s ICE raids. This is how it’s done.

Out at Lake Chabot, I heard from constituents worried about ICE targeting neighbors just trying to follow the rules. We’re not China or Russia -- due process matters. We must protect our country without tearing families apart.

🚨 The LA protests escalated fast.
DHS called in the National Guard, and reports say Marines may be deploying next. The city is still on edge.

📢 If you’re out there, protect yourself and your crew.

📲 Save this. Share it. Stay safe out there.

STATEMENT FROM THE WHITE HOUSE "In recent days, violent mobs have attacked ICE Officers and Federal Law Enforcement Agents carrying out basic deportation operations in Los Angeles, California. These operations are essential to halting and reversing the invasion of illegal criminals into the United States. In the wake of this violence, California's feckless Democrat leaders have completely abdicated their responsibility to protect their citizens. That is why President Trump has signed a Presidential Memorandum deploying 2,000 National Guardsmen to address the lawlessness that has been allowed to fester. The Trump Administration has a zero tolerance policy for criminal behavior and violence, especially when that violence is aimed at law enforcement officers trying to do their jobs. These criminals will be arrested and swiftly brought to justice. The Commander-in-Chief will ensure the laws of the United States are executed fully and completely." -Karoline Leavitt, White House Press Secretary

Statement from the White House regarding deployment of the national guard in California:

“Trump has signed a Presidential Memorandum deploying 2,000 National Guardsmen…”

So looking forward to this!!! Coauthored by one of my favorites @drtomori.bsky.social

Until policymakers are forced to navigate ethics boards,connect with legal advisors, and concurrently manage complex medical pathology in not one,but 2 patients (mother & baby),within critically narrow time frames, I encourage legislators to refrain from blaming ObGyn providers for these tragedies.
