A 🧵 with poem on RFK, Jr.'s indifference to human beings on the autism spectrum. Read the poem in the first or last post of the thread, your choice.

Amidst the blizzard of disturbing news this month, Robert Kennedy, Jr.'s remarks on autism stand out as some of the more frightening parts. (1/6)

Day 2 of Trump’s government shutdown. Time to push back against the GOP redistricting power grab and vote YES on Prop 50. Because it’s time for CA to hold the line.

Also #NoKings on Oct. 18.

1/ I was so happy to cover the California Strong: Hold The Line LAWest music festival today in Santa Monica, CA. It was an excellent turnout for this section of the CA line. Many thanks to @kittywestmeow.bsky.social

Protesters line Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica.

A woman banging pots and pans, and a No Kings sign.

Protesters join hands to form the chain.

The Brownshirts (Sturmabteilung or SA) were a paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party. Their primary role was street terror and violence.

I mention this for no particular reason.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

After Stephen Miller and others turned a memorial service into a celebration of their own hate, after we showed our power to make Disney back down from canceling Kimmel, let's remind MAGA (again) that CA will Hold the Line for our people and our state.

9/27, 10am to 12 pm

Today Disney reinstated Jimmy Kimmel. That was us, acting together.

LA folks, let's keep it going. Show up for Hold The Line on 9/27, 10am-noon from Playa del Rey to Venice to Santa Monica. Stand in solidarity for California and against a mad king.

Not at the Freeway action this morning. We were at the West LA Immigration Courthouse witnessing for the stranger, the immigrant, the child of God who MAGA and the Trump Administration target for their hate.
