I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Find your nearest gathering. Lend your voice, your strength, and be counted. Wherever we stand together, we are stronger. Wherever we show up, we shine light into the darkness. The greater our numbers, the greater our safety. We have friends everywhere.

Who will stand with us on 6/14?

The founding fathers did not live and die to see this moment. It’s time for all of us to stand up peacefully.

This is important meta analysis. We’re experiencing a national news story with Constitutional crisis implications, but most of LA wouldn’t know it without press.

The population of Los Angeles County is larger than 42 states. This place is ginormous.
Another thing to mention for people who don't live in LA.

Most of LA is very chill and peaceful right now. There's a huge Pride fest going on, countless farmer's markets, tourists walking around, families at the parks, people walking their dogs.

It's a big place.

This...is...not...honest.

This pic is from five years ago and not even in Los Angeles. Immoral opportunists like James Woods and Ted Cruz trade on lies to promote other lies.

There are still tickets available for the big L.A. wildfire relief benefit show at the United Theater on Broadway tomorrow night. Here I am at soundcheck with Paul Shaffer and Al Jardine - the lineup for this thing is absolutely INSANE. Hope to see you there!

Please read and share.

Musk is attempting to blame Ukraine for the X cyberattack, but word has already spread that it was a false flag. What is a false flag? A false flag operation is an act committed to disguise the actual source of responsibility and shift blame onto another party.

So what we're seeing right now is propaganda in action. It's the rewriting of reality in real time. If you read Orwell's '1984', this is the Party telling people to disbelieve the evidence of their own eyes and ears. #jointsession

To every American tuning in to Trump’s address tonight, do two things before you watch:

Check your 401k.

Check your last grocery bill, and add 25%.

No matter what the President says tonight, that’s the reality of what he’s doing to your family finances.

Veterans fired from the VA.

Nuclear security experts fired.

Ebola and bird flu experts fired.

DOGE is destroying critical agencies to pay for more tax cuts for billionaires.

Don’t let them fool you into believing otherwise.

Quick reminder ahead of Donald Trump’s speech tonight:

He promised that he would “immediately bring prices down, starting on Day 1.”

It’s now Day 44.

Prices have gone up.

Inflation’s gotten worse.

And Trump’s done nothing to lower costs for working people.
