Bass: I just signed an executive directive that puts all city departments and leadership on notice to protect Angelenosβessentially from the federal government.
Weβre also filing a FOIA request because we want to know: Who are these masked men, and why are they masked in the first place?

Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.βs superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids.

Eastern Bluebird
Sometimes you have to pause in order to appreciate...
Tiny fluffy gray bird with an open beak perched on a thin branch. Its round body is covered in soft feathers, with yellow markings around its face and tiny black eyes. The bird appears to be calling or singing, creating an expressive moment against a smooth blurred background.

This male Bushtit thought he was a hummingbird and ended up with pollen all over his little face. So angry!

Oh sorry, you DIDN'T want a backlit baby killdeer scampering across your timeline?
Sorry.
I'll tell the bird they're unwanted here.
They'll be so sad.
But it's fine. What really matters is you.
No no. I'll tell them they're too smol and "low resolution"
They'll understand.

Let that sink in.
Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americansβ¦and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.
So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Marco Rubioβs State Department is politicizing their travel safety rankings, not based on real evidence and situations. This week was the first time I visited the site since he took over. Wow! Dramatic changes since December 2024.
Republicans used to say βundocumented immigrants donβt pay taxes.β Now the IRS is handing their tax data to DHSβ¦ So which is it?
Seems like youβd have to pay taxes to even have tax dataβ¦
38% of people living in Mike Johnson's district were enrolled in Medicaid last year.
Yet Johnson is pushing for devastating cuts to Medicaid β all to pay for tax cuts that will predominantly go to the rich.
Is there a better encapsulation of the Republican Party?
15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment.
Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling.
We must overturn Citizens United.
Every day, it corrupts our politics and erodes our democracy.

With so many unprecedented weird news. This might be one to keep an eye on.
Two weeks before a challenging runoff election Noboa finds time to go see Trump about enlisting US military aid.
Watch closely to see how the people vote in this South American country.
