LA's parks department is proposing fencing MacArthur Park with "a green wrought iron fence around both the northern and southern sections of the park. The proposed fence would fully enclose the historical Wilshire Boulevard sides and the eight historically prominent cornered ingress/egress points"

"Remember, Los Angeles is also on the hook for Olympic overruns. The Convention Center bill starts coming due the very same year we could be forced to absorb those Olympic overages."

I asked Yaroslavsky for her prepared remarks because I felt they captured this particular moment in LA so perfectly

LAPD preemptively blocked off Alameda Street between Commercial and Temple Streets, before an anti-ICE demonstration that began in MacArthur Park arrived. @lataco.bsky.social

And there you have it: Trump confirms he will use military force "if we have to" to secure LA's Olympics.

"We'll do anything necessary to keep our Olympics safe, including using our National Guard or military."

"Because obviously we have a mayor who is not very competent"

been thinking about it for awhile but probably going to get really into Gunpla now

everything goes to updating criterions to 4k sorry

Hi everyone

I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests

I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

A plane with no call sign is currently circling the area where the LA anti-ICE protests are taking place. It took off from March Air Reserve Base

Last year, unions sent letters to local and international megaevent organizers urging them to endorse the Olympic wage campaign.

They didn't endorse it. Stuart Waldman, a member of the LA28 organizing committee, publicly opposed the wage increase, saying it would cause "irreversible damage"

Budgeting for Harm: Will California Roll Back Rights for Survivors? - Knock LA California school administrators and politicians are trying to make it more difficult for survivors of sexual abuse to seek justice.

My senator (Ben Allen) authored a bill over that would have severely curtailed the rights of CSA survivors under AB218. Last week, he pulled SB 832—for now.

I wrote about my experience with AB 218 & why it’s important for @knockdotla.bsky.social

Please read (but ofc, TW: CSA!)

Reminder that this is the person that Rick Caruso called "one of the biggest thinkers around"

Abbott and Costello meet László Tóth

Since I'm seeing it everywhere:

I worked in LA City Hall when the budget passed. Our office voted No. But the idea that LAFD was "defunded" to increase the LAPD budget is not accurate. Both got increases due to salary hikes. LAFD's deal just happened after the budget process -- LAPD's was before.
