As a 35-year journalist, you are a disgrace and a stain on the profession. Go away for good, Olivia Nuzzi.

Is this the stage version of "1984"?
Hegseth: "It all starts with physical fitness and appearance. If the secretary of war can do regular hard PT, so can every member of our joint force. Frankly, it's tiring to look out at combat formations and see fat troops. Likewise, it's completely unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals."

The second civil war has begun. Separating from the USA has become a necessary and responsible reaction to threats to Western states. Unbelievable it has come to this after six months but you can't keep poking the bear and not expect a mauling.

If you live in Ventura County in Southern California, please consider getting trained in how to document ongoing ICE abuses and other ways to protect our immigrant neighbors. 805UndocuFund is an excellent resource and has an upcoming free training.
Ventura County is the site of recent ICE raids.

I'll admit I crossed the line from journalist to mom as I spoke directly to the soldiers facing off protestors at yesterday's farm raids in Carpinteria and Camarillo, Calif. I spoke to them just after they tackled a protestor and dragged him off.

Here are some of the agents I encountered yesterday at the cannabis farm raid in Camarillo. They appear to be Border Patrol agents. Joined later by other masked agents in military fatigues and heavily armed. #FarmRaids #ICE

Another shot of Rosalie after being teargassed by masked federal agents. She was a peaceful protestor.

Tear gas just deployed against protestors/observers of the ICE farm raids in Oxnard. Rosalie was caught up in the has and needed immediate attention. She lives nearby, saw the raids unfolding on TV. "I drove here to see if I could help." She is sad at what was unfolding. "This used to be America."

Two protestors at the ICE raids on a large cannabis nursery in Oxnard were thrown to the ground and arrested. Unknown where they and the others were taken. #ICERaidsOxnard

A large crowd has gathered on a farm road on the Oxnard Plain to protest the arrests. Two dozen federal agents, most masked and with no ID, formed a double column to keep protestors away from the site of detainments. Agents deployed tear gas at times to keep the crowd back. #ICEFarmRaids

I'm on the ground in Oxnard, Calif. where ICE and other federal agents have detained dozens of workers at Glasshouse nuseries--growers of premium cannabis. A witness told me that the agents entered around 11 am today without a warrant and began detaining workers, throwing some to the ground.

There's comedy gold in this leaked planning document for Monday's federal show of force at MacArthur Park. It reads like the rejected plot of an Austin Powers caper. Saddest part is Trump is humiliating our enlisted sons and daughters for venal glory.

You're in very good company friend. I've had to limit my social media and news exposure, and get out in nature more to manage my stress. Yoga, meditation, hikes bring a measure of calm. The majority of the USA (and the world) feels the same as you, and we will eventually overcome.
