On this wet Saturday, I invite you to join me at 1:30 pm at the theatre of the Stanley Milner Library, for a free screening of Darrin Hagen’s award-winning documentary, Pride V Prejudice, the story of the Delwin Vriend case, which established 2SLGBQT+ rights in Canada. @guysindisguise.bsky.social

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a β€œthreatening breach” of a police barricade

Look what I found when I searched "ICE uniform" in Google Shopping.

None of us have any way of knowing if the "ICE agent" pushing you into a car, isn't just some unbalanced vigilante into cosplay. These are very dangerous times.

Trump deploys National Guard in L.A. amid protests over immigration raids Trump signed a memo to federalize 2,000 National Guardsmen, arguing the deployment is necessary to combat the β€œlawlessness” in Los Angeles.

Today, WH Border Czar Homan said California's Governor and LA Mayor Bass could be arrested if they interfered with ICE. This, after the arrest of a NJ Congresswoman & a Wisconsin Judge. This isn't what democracy is supposed to look like. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Video: Explainer, LA and Troop Activation All About Guard, Active Duty, Insurrection Act, and what the terms mean.

A video explaining the terms about federalization of the Guard, the difference between the Guard, Reserves, and Active Duty, and when the guard or active duty can engage in law enforcement. Hint: the guard as activated in Calif cannot.

Boosting this for good measure.

To quote the CNN piece:

"Homan accused Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass of creating β€œa sanctuary for criminals,” adding that neither are exempt from potential arrest."

This should alarm the hell out of all of us.

And we already have citizens shooting other citizens.
Nothing about this is good. Even just raising your weapon is atrocious.

Again, you can tell who the Good Guys are because they’re the ones getting caught sneaking into elementary schools, lying that the kids’ parents sent them.

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC.

Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?
