Why Trump's deployment of the National Guard to LA is unprecedented, according to a general

A press release from the Los Angeles Police Department dated June 9, 2025, titled “LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell Responds to Possible Deployment of Marines to Los Angeles” (Document ID: NR25120wc). The statement reads: “The LAPD has not received any formal notification that the Marines will be arriving in Los Angeles. However, the possible arrival of federal military forces in Los Angeles—absent clear coordination—presents a significant logistical and operational challenge for those of us charged with safeguarding this city. The Los Angeles Police Department, alongside our mutual aid partners, have decades of experience managing large-scale public demonstrations, and we remain confident in our ability to do so professionally and effectively. That said, our top priority is the safety of both the public and the officers on the ground. We are urging open and continuous lines of communication between all agencies to prevent confusion, avoid escalation, and ensure a coordinated, lawful, and orderly response during this critical time.” Signed: — Chief Jim McDonnell, Los Angeles Police Department The footer includes LAPD social media and contact information, including: Twitter: @LAPDHQ and @LAPDPIO_ Facebook: LAPD on Facebook Office address: 100 West First Street, Los Angeles, California, 90012 Phone: (213) 486-5910 Email: pio@lapd.online

The LAPD Chief has weighed in on Marines being deployed.

Basically: Why is this necessary?

This is the spirit of Los Angeles.

This is California.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Text reads: I want to be rich enough to own ornamental cattle. People will ask me if my cows are for meat or for milk and I will say no they are for display. These are display cows. Picture below the text shows a herd of cattle facing the camera, on a bright green pasture with mountains in the background.

Why do birds help predict bee richness beyond land covers? Birds complement satellites by indicating small habitat features like flowering shrubs and land management practices. Together with land covers, they add insight to wild bee conservation science. 🐤+🛰️=🐝

I don’t want to agree with Thomas Massie because he’s the worst, but this is correct

huge crowds out in force for the NO KINGS protests

They think all these people are paid.

Tesla speeds up odometers to avoid warranty repairs, US lawsuit claims Tesla faces a proposed class action claiming it speeds up odometers on its electric vehicles so they fall out of warranty faster, saving Elon Musk's company from having to pay for repairs.

I’m sure the dismantling of the CFPB had nothing to do with this, right?
