Trump & the AI bros signed an agreement on "safety" today. When asked what force the agreement had, Trump said "moral" force. This from a man who lies, cheats & steals more easily than he breathes.

Obama's deal w/Iran (the JCPOA) prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. It was working great. Trump, idiotically, tore it up & created the whole problem. Now he says it's fine for us to pay ~30% more for gas. No, it's not. None of this is OK.

The movie Once is great and Glen Hansard was great in it. He was, of course, too a wonderful musician. So sad to read of his passing today at the far too young age of 56 in a motorcycle accident. Rest in peace.

Maine Dems should rally around Mills on the condition that she serve only 1 year & then resign so that the state can hold a special election with normal primaries.

Trump claims the deal is "very powerful" and he wants it released. Why then isn't it being released? Isn't he in charge? And why didn't the press press him on this point?

All the talk is about Trump's "slush" fund but almost no one is talking about the Trump family ripoff of the IRS on their taxes. It's widely believed that he owes 10s (maybe 100s) of millions in back taxes. Why the hell should he get to wipe this out? This outrage, too, needs to be stopped!

The only thing that Dems shold be saying about both this $1.8b taxpayer ripoff fund & this Trump Family IRS TAX SCAM is "NO FUCKING WAY" & "IMPEACHMENT." That's it. Done. The jig is up.

Time for Iran to drop that whole "Death to America," Death to Israel" shtick. Where the hell has that gotten them? Like Rodney King famously said: "People, I just want to say, can we all get along? Can we get along?"

He was a careless man, Donald J. Trump - he smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into his money or his vast carelessness or whatever, and let other people clean up the mess he'd made....

Dems should insist that every penny for this war come first from the obscene tens of billions of dollars given to DHS in Trump's Big "Ugly" Bill last year for mass deportation. First defund that & end mass deportation -- then we can talk.

A loaf of bread I regularly buy at Trader Joe's just went up from $3.99 to $4.99. A couple of recent prescriptions that I get from CVS Mailorder also just went up dramatically (& I have good insurance). Don't tell me the cost-of-living is under control and that we're not paying these tariffs. BS.

WTF is the FBI doing? It has an annual budget of more than $11b. Is it spending any of that on actually keeping us safe? It sure doesn't seem so.

1/2 MN needs to get much more legally confrontational with federal officials. If the feds obstruct the state's investigation, state LE should inform whoever is in charge that they are under arrest for obstruction. State officials should ask the arrestee to surrender peacefully. If he refuses, they..

On Real Time w/Bill Maher tonight, LA Senator John Kennedy asked if Trump should have been prosecuted for January 6. Neither Maher, nor Kasie Hunt said anything. Allow me: Hell yeah he should have been. He attempted a coup. He attempted to end our democracy. Not really a hard question.

When Dems next control the gov't, they should pass an Epstein-files style bill requiring that all the J6 & classified docs case files (including all GJ testimony) be released by DoJ. This information belongs to the American people and needs to be made public asap, not decades from now.

Release the damn: 1. 9/2/25 second strike tape; 2. Epstein files; and 3. Evidence proving that 10 kids dies from the covid vaccine. I dare you.

Just 5 days ago Trump said they would, of course, release the video. Today he denied saying that. Why wasn't the very next question to him: Mr. President, do you really not remember saying exactly that just 5 days ago?

Why, after repeated attempts to sell Ukraine out, would Putin ever compromise? He can clearly see that Trump has his back. Trump has made it impossible to settle this war during his term.

Apparently, Ohtani threw for 4 TDs, rushed for 2 more, had 2 interceptions & made the game-saving tackle in L.A. today. The team announced that although he will be playing in the World Series next Friday & Saturday, he will not miss next Sunday's football game as it's an off day for the Dodgers.

What the 1st Amendment means: The people can criticize POTUS as much as they like. Comedians can make fun of POTUS as much as they like. POTUS can complain about this as much as he likes, BUT HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Or, at least, that's supposed to be what it means.

The Marines proved no match for the City of Angels. We beat their asses and now they're slinking back to their bases.* *Just kidding &, to be clear, we Angelenos support them fully when (unlike now) they're properly commanded & doing the job of defending us from real foreign threats. Semper Fi!

Controlling the border is fine. Deporting bad guys is fine. But mass deportation is just, plain bad & a complete waste of money. Trump & the Republicans want to spend nearly $100b more to do just that. The Democrats should not be afraid to make this case.

I've lived in L.A. all my life & have pretty much seen it all, Watts '65, the '92 Riot, + personally, being nearly attacked by the LAPD in the Vietnam War protest in Century City in '67), but I have to say this is the stupidest gov't response of all time.

From the halls of Montebello, to the shores of Malibu, we will fight our country's (imagined) battles, in the air, on land & sea... I'm not saying this isn't serious (because it is + because I live in L.A.) but, as with all things Trump, THIS IS ALSO INCREDIBLY STUPID! Be careful out there!

The recent fires in L.A. took many more than 10k homes, plus thousands of other structures. What we need most right now is construction labor and federal assistance. Instead, what do we get? The federal gov't waging war on us and attacking the construction labor pool. This is fucked up. Trump sucks.

At this point we'd be better off if the courts just enjoined Trump and his administration in full and allowed them to seek relief for actions, if any, they can show are not unconstitutional, horribly stupid & morally bankrupt. Just think of the time we'd save.
000
leglawla.bsky.social @leglawla.bsky.social · 23/05/2025
For the sake of efficiency, it probably would make more sense to enjoin the Trump administration in full and then let it apply for relief for those actions, if any, where it could prove that the action was not insane.

2 judges have now found Trump's attack on law firms UNCONSTITUTIONAL. That makes the "agreements" the Trump 9 firms (Paul /Weiss, Skadden et al) signed w/him unconstitutional too. They must renounce these abominations today and begin to make amends for their cowardice & betrayal of the rule of law.

Make no mistake: Investors aren't selling U.S. gov't debt -- they are selling Trump. No way this would be happening if Harris, Biden, Clinton, Obama or GWB were in the WH. Investors see more than 45 more months of Trump and they say "I don't want any part of that."

Regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Trump fascist regime claims not to have acted in bad faith but they have not even asked Bukele nicely to release him for return to his U.S. citizen wife & diasabled child. That is bad faith in the extreme.
