Well done

Headline says LA considering state of emergency over ICE raids.

Why is the headline not state of emergency over ICE abandoning due process? Obey the law, no emergency

Downtown Los Angeles can be beautiful in the early morning.

Remember what we saw this week. ICE cops are essential and getting paid. Air traffic controllers are not getting paid. Which do you consider essential?

Lol. Some claws are digging in lol.

So Trump wants to bring back coal and battleships.

Next up, typewriters and the cavalry. After all they too were under assault too. By reality and technology.

Battleships? Billy Mitchell is laughing his ass off from the grave.

Habibi takes a nap before dinner and a play session.

Let me boil down a ton of news and opinions.

The 1st Amendment applies to us all. At all times. Every encroachment is worth the fight to push back.

Need I point out the reaction if a Dem President tried any of this?

Yesterday we took our kitten Habibi in for neutering surgery. All went well. Apparently he is loved by the staff there.

It's just astonishing how the Senate, Congress and our media put up with the near elimination of our 1st A rights. The President and VP threaten critical speech. Weapinized it. Never in my life has this happened before. The left never threatened the 2nd A like Republicans and MAGA attack the 1st.

I think we can easily see why Trump is renaming The Deptartment of Defense The War Department. He needs that war/crisis mentality to get away with sending the military on domestic missions. And so much more...

If these alleged drug smugglers were killed without warning and were given no chance to surrender its cowardly. Might without mercy is a terrible way to run a country. Or it’s military.

Laser Focus. Ah kittens at play. Such a joy to watch

They should refuse. Why join the anti science, anti evidence conspiracy the Trump administration really is? Shoot the messengers. Fire those that gave us the facts. Intimidate those who disagree.

Oh gosh. Remember the white house China thing during Reagans day? My how the world has changed.

The mobster President is now threatening to arrest Obama. For imagined crimes. Kinda like ICE does these days with American citizens and immigrants in the middle of the legal process to be allowed to stay or become citizens.

Love the distant person in that one shot

Cats can be smart. This one has decided to show me which toy he wants to play with. Feathers on a string are a favorite of his. You go Habibi!

I can't help but think that only those who are doing something deeply wrong feel the need to hide behind a mask and uniform. If it's all legit, why hide? So fearful of bad guys? FBI, local or county law enforcement all show their faces and unhesitatingly show badge number, agency etc. ICE knows.

In due recognition of President Trumps deliberate cruelties and advanced age, tomorrow should become In Depends Day.

Beautiful

F1 is one intense film. It was great to see it in Laser projection at the Chinese theater today.

Well, that's the thing. What we know now. History tells me " never say never". IMHO

Wearable med tech is no substitute for vaccination and proper medical exams.

So Kristy Noem was hospitalized for an allergic reaction. Apparently someone put some truth in her mayo at lunch.

If you live in the United States, you are in greater jeopardy today than you were 6 months ago. So is your family. So are your friends & neighbors.

Virtually all the important parts of the U.S. government created to protect us are being shut down, gutted, or marginalized.

We can only hope its enough to pressure more Senators and Congress to step up and speak out. Refuse to vote for a damn thing for now.

What a shame to see law enforcement so fearful of a peaceful boisterous crowd at the Los Angeles No Kings protest. They fire tear gas and or rubber bullets at those near the Federal building, but outside the security perimeter.
