Proud of Pasadena and our peaceful resistance. Here's to an Anti-fascist summer. No Kings. No Wars. Peace, prosperity and justice for all.

Federal agents thought they could stay at LA-area hotels. Communities are trying to make sure they can’t.

When feds checked into a Pasadena hotel, they didn’t expect 100s of protesters and a day laborers’ band, the tactic that kicked them out is spreading.

When federal agents checked into a Pasadena hotel, they didn't expect hundreds of protesters and a day laborers’ band — now the tactic that kicked them out is spreading across LA.

From Chicago to Portland, James Comey to Letitia James, and so much else—this is no longer America.

I found two on Temu. Says they’ll make it in 2-7 business days.
Pretty sure it’s bad, too, but it’s not Amazon.

SusanLambert @susanlambert.bsky.social · 19h

FYI - I have never used Temu before. But I learned last night and bought two. Cheaper. They may be bad but not Amazon bad. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(Though I know sometimes Amazon is the only or best choice, so no shame)

They are not planning "a violent crackdown" on 10.18. What they are doing is sending a signal to their shock troops to try to cause havoc. But those shock troops will be vastly outnumbered. Go out and protest freely. Do not be cowed.

New Yorkers know Attorney General James for who she is: a champion for justice who fights relentlessly for the people. Donald Trump knows her only as an obstacle to his corruption.

New York Attorney General Letitia James @newyorkstateag.bsky.social · 1d

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

BREAKING: Letitia James held Trump accountable & now he’s hijacking the DOJ to indict her in retaliation

This isn’t justice, it’s abuse of power

We will be amending our existing ethics complaint against Halligan & pursuing other legal measures

Portland wizard frog is reminding us that we can make them look like the keystone cops. They are dangerous because they are scared, incompetent and paid to start a riot, but they are also scared, incompetent and ridiculous.
May we all channel our inner and outer Portland wizard frog.

I am not good at fighting the power. I'm a put my head down, do the work and keep moving. So when I fight the power these days I mess up & go "oh thank you" instead of "I need your name, number & proof what you just said is true." After I feel bit stupid. But I'll get better. Practice, as they say

I wish you could have been with Melissa and I watching a Debbie Allen documentary on her Debbie Allen Dance Academy (DACA) and in conversation with students and audience about her in the arts. The talkback was incredible. Laughing, clapping and crying.

Debbie Allen, smiling in a gold sparkling coat and moderator, Julia M. Ritter, PhD, head of USC School of Dance wearing a black jacket and colorful scarf stand in front of a red curtain.

Two women walking down a sidewalk. They are smiling and beautiful. One has bobbed grey hair and black shirt with Army National Guard. And on has brown hair and glasses with a black shirt. Behind them is a sign that says University of Southern California.

Debbie Allen, smiling in a gold sparkling coat, distressed black jeans and stylish gold sparkling wedges, sits in a chair, with a microphone answering questions. She is laughing, gorgeous and filled with special light. She exudes power and creative joy. She is in front of a red curtain for a talkback at Eileen Norris Theatre at USC School of Cinematic Arts.

This very very very bad. I cannot stress this enough. I said that they crossed the Rubicon with arresting Ras Baraka several months ago. This is very bad and portends more bad things for regular people.

Good on Portland for keeping it weird. And reminding us that the more righteously joyous we can become, the more ridiculous they look.
Seriously, Pepper spraying the filter on a blow up floppy frog?! Who would do that? What are they afraid of? Joy? Unicorns? Frogs?

Mourning those murdered by Hamas isn't incompatible with mourning those murdered by the Israeli state.

Demanding that the hostages return isn't incompatible with naming & demanding an end to genocide.

Naming the power imbalance & impact thereof doesn't desecrate those murdered two years ago today.
