Amen

Hoo boy

Hi! Lovely to see you here. I'm just a citizen of Los Angeles with an overwhelming fear of future fires and I thank you for your dedication and willingness to share.

Speaking from Los Angeles here, you seem to be completely missing the point about a federal takeover of your city. Wow.

US-funded contraceptives for poor nations to be burned in France, sources say U.S.-funded contraceptives worth nearly $10 million are being sent to France from Belgium to be incinerated, after Washington rejected offers from the United Nations and family planning organisations to buy or ship the supplies to poor nations, two sources told Reuters.

I guess they couldn't find any witches.

And I guess now he has seen it's not even a joking matter, and it happened right in front of him. How did your soon feel about it?

Truly horrified by this order in way that is deeper and darker than I have felt over many truly awful merits decisions.

Masked men in U.S. Border Patrol vests take Santa Ana father after repeatedly hitting him In a graphic video that has since gone viral on social media, about seven or more masked men wearing U.S. Border Patrol vests are seen violently detaining a Santa Ana father before forcing him into…

KTLA - Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all US Marines, pepper-sprayed and punched in the face by alleged federal immigration officers while he was working as a landscaper at an IHOP. He was then forced into the back of an unmarked car in Santa Ana.

A completely tone-deaf post from an otherwise astute political observer.

My relatives in East L.A. — born in the U.S.A. — are afraid to go outside because masked men with guns are randomly snatching people off the street.

This is a government terrorism campaign against its own people.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium.

ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Agreed. They are acting as though there is no law enforcement left but DHS. Very dangerous.

“Thank you to life, that has given me so much
It has given me laughter and it has given me crying
So I can distinguish blessings from brokenness
The two ingredients that make up my chants
And your chants, that are the same chants
And everyone's chants, that are my own chants”

500 rallying for getting ICE out of Pico Rivera tonight.

FULL FLOOR SPEECH: Sen. Padilla BLASTS "tyrant" Trump YouTube video by MSNBC

Historic.

Grandmothers Are On The Move "To be accused of speaking too loudly about one injustice but not others by someone who doesn't care about any of them is to be told, simply, to keep quiet."

When our leaders abandon their duty.
When the media turn away.
When international NGOs and doctors are murdered for trying to help,
then it falls to ordinary people to step up.
My latest on the growing movement of grandmothers against genocide.

FIRST ON MSNBC: Sen. Padilla reveals meeting DHS Secretary Kristi Noem after being forcibly removed and cuffed from her DHS press conference.

"You'd think she might have started the meeting with an apology for what happened. Of course not."

"How could you say that you did not know who he was?"

L.A. Mayor Karen Bass speaks out on the forced removal of California Sen. Alex Padilla from a DHS press conference.

DHS claimed the senator "interrupted a live press conference without identifying himself."

Booker: He was made to kneel before the authority of the executive… They treated a member of the United States senate violently after he identified himself, dragged him out of a room, threw him upon the ground, and put him in handcuffs
