This is footage from today in MacArthur Park.

Minutes before, there were more than 20 kids playing — then, the MILITARY comes through.

The SECOND I heard about this, I went to the park to speak to the person in charge to tell them it needed to end NOW.

Absolutely outrageous.

Look at how mighty our U.S. military is, as they take to the lone and level streets of Los Angeles to flush out the dangerous “criminals” and “rapists,” Angelenos! Look upon their works and despair! 🙄🙄🙄🤦🏾‍♂️

So, the company execs and shareholders at Mattel all watched Chucky and M3GAN and said, yeah, let’s go ahead and do that. Besides, what’s the worst that could happen?🙄🤦🏾‍♂️

An airline-owned data broker collected US travelers’ flight records, sold them to Customs and Border Protection, and then as part of the contract told CBP to not reveal where the data came from, according to a contract obtained by 404 Media.

Airlines Don’t Want You to Know They Sold Your Flight Data to DHS

A contract obtained by 404 Media shows that an airline-owned data broker forbids the feds from revealing it sold them detailed passenger data.

Anyone attending a #NoKings protest tomorrow, stay safe, stay vigilant, and watch each other’s backs.

If you're heading to a protest tomorrow, it's important to know your rights. Consult this information from the ACLU.

Be peaceful. Be safe. Be careful. Be strong.

THIS. 💯

HT/cred @travishelwig.bsky.social

In the coming days, the National media is gonna call LA a war zone.

But the truth is, the folks protesting today were worried about their friends, their neighbors, and their community. A few idiots will throw a rock and it’ll take over the entire narrative. But just know LA is afraid right now because their coworkers were kidnapped at work. Because the guy who sold them dinner was snatched by masked men. And because a bunch of neighbor’s parents straight up never came home.

As Trump gleefully escalates this with the National Guard, violence is inevitable. But just know this protest started from a place of protection. A place of love. We love our neighbors. We love our family. We love our community.

Whatever the news tells you in the coming days, that’s the truth. They’re gonna paint a vision of LA that is much different from that. Don’t let them.

I have been thinking about a lot lately how Jack Warner, whose desk and office David Zaslav uses, was the most bullying, cruel, domineering, & sadistic of all of Old Hollywood's studio bosses (no small feat) & is still preferable to Zaslav. Perhaps I shall write a thread on this matter ..
