Hi everyone! I’ve unfortunately been diagnosed with a likely rib fracture from the hospital. Likely it occurred on Friday, August 8 during a protest where I was in the middle of asking for a PIO/supervisor. As is clear in the video, I waited for a moment for a break in the line moving forward.

Grossly irresponsible of the Times to have this ludicrous credulous spin as the top story the morning after a president who rules by fiat proclaims a totally specious emergency to militarize the capital - an editorial insult to our intelligence and our democracy.

this is a great example of what happens when unserious, nihilistic people get in charge of actual institutions whose ostensible job it is to provide real services to real people. these people are LARPing their way through everything. trolling as govt bc they have no respect for the work of it.

It's a good strategy if their goal is to avoid being rounded up and thrown in a gulag by Trump. If their aim is to be controlled opposition that Trump, as dictator, allows to survive, then they are probably on the right track. I'm not convinced they're doing this in an effort to win a free election

Here’s the moment LAPD ordered media along with protestors against the wall, despite requests for a supervisor as well as reminders that PC409.7(b) specifically exempts media from dispersal orders. Never made contact with a PIO. didn’t speak with a supervisor for a very long time after being cuffed.

This piece, by @abemarquez.bsky.social, links to literal straight-up neo-Nazi propaganda

A screenshot of the LA Taco piece with the phrase "the New York Times had reported" highlighted. "Reported" is a hyperlink

This is what "reported" links to, a page from the site palestineremembered dot com. In the screenshot, the phrase "Khazari Jews" is highlighted, it's a hyperlink

This is where the "Khazari Jews" hyperlink leads on palestineremembered dot com. It's a bizarre Nazi conspiracy rant

Absolutely dystopian juxtaposition from the Guardian front page. Difficult to understand how anyone of decency and conscience can defend this government at this point. Just sheer moral degeneracy to arm a state that does this and arrest people for objecting. Wtf are we doing as a country?

Note that the administration’s claim of a 700% increase in assaults on ICE agents is likely made up mostly of incidents like this: claims that a 71-year-old citizen “pushed” a masked armed agent.

Trying to demonstrate the military’s “freedom of maneuver” INSIDE a US city is about as dystopian as you can get. “Freedom to maneuver” is the type of thing we practice in, say, disputed Chinese waters.

I wrote about how the Everglades experiment fits into the history of concentration camps in the US and abroad, and how it will connect a domestic network of camps to an international one. We’re watching the imposition of a global concentration camp network.

Opinion | Don’t call it ‘Alligator Alcatraz.’ Call it a concentration camp.

This facility’s purpose fits the classic model, and its existence points to serious dangers ahead for the country.
