Is there really anybody in LA who seriously thinks this will end well? I can't imagine what benefits LA could receive that would justify what is coming.

If homicides were on the rise, there undoubtedly would be a flood of stories linking that to the reduced size of the LAPD. But when crime is down, no outlet will use the headline “LAPD Shrinks, Crime Plummets.”.

This is naked, ugly authoritarianism. The Trump Gestapo terrorizing our kids.
Full blown militarized raid on horseback, military tactical vehicles, and soldiers on foot with a perimeter set around McArthur Park. Looks like a big show of force by ICE/Border Patrol. It’s unclear which other military presence is there. Our reporter is on the way.

Congress just approved giving Trump his own massive army of secret police and stormtroopers, unaccountable to no one but him. I am afraid history is going to show this vote was the bullet that killed America.
People don't yet realize the terrifying implications of tripling ICE's enforcement budget, making it the largest law enforcement agency in the country, and building tens of billions of dollars of new "Alcatrazes.". If you think things are bad now, it's about to get way scarier.

On this week's LA Podcast, we track a third week of ICE raids that are more violent, more brazen, and raising more questions about LAPD's role in these kidnappings. Plus, the fight over the Olympic Wage -- and the impact of Mamdani's win.

Pay close to attention to which Democratic Party leaders try to emulate the way Mamdani built a coalition of and for the working class, and which leaders try to destroy the candidate who forged it.

This is disgusting, appalling, and entirely predictable. No one in LA County is safe right now, thanks to the lawless terror Trump and Miller have unleashed.
BREAKING: the chief of police in Huntington Park says they arrested a man Tuesday accused of impersonating a federal agent, with fake DHS docs, cell phones and a loaded gun in an unmarked car, amid ongoing ICE raids. They discovered he had a history of arrests for human smuggling

Will the Democratic Party finally start to realize that the days of the tired establishment are over?. Voters want public officials who will deliver on their needs, not cater to the monied elites. To beat an agenda of fear and resentment that victimizes and steals from people,.
