Sign the @stoplapdspying.bsky.social petition to demand LAPD and the city of Los Angeles end their partnerships with Flock “Safety.” These cameras are used to surveil and stalk Angelenos. Shut down Flock now!

Stop LAPD Spying Coalition Sues LAPD for Hiding Records on their Partnership with Flock Safety Media advisory announcing Flock-related lawsuit morning at 9 am outside LAPD HQ 👀 I am co-counsel on this case with @shakeer.bsky.social Shut down Flock NOW! @stoplapdspying.bsky.social

May 5, 2026 Media Advisory For Immediate Release Stop LAPD Spying Sues LAPD for Hiding Records on their Partnership with Flock Safety PDF COPY OF COMPLAINT ATTACHED & AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST What: Press Conference When: Tuesday - May 5th at 9:00 AM Where: LAPD HQ, 100 W. 1st St., Los Angeles, CA 90012 Who: Stop LAPD Spying Coalition and various grassroots organizations and community members The Stop LAPD Spying Coalition is announcing a public records lawsuit filed against the City of Los Angeles to do a lock of ty, a orgice Ded surveilane fir uros dies is orthousand or shiret cameras Group, In., perpetually mapping the movements of every driver in Los Angeles. Flock and LAPD have long shared camera footage, data, and hardware. Stop LAPD Spying Coalition and its partners have been leading a local fight to end Flock surveillance in Los Angeles due to Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR data being used to facilitate mass deportations and to criminalize. In February, the Coalition submitted a public records request for copies of all of LAPD's contracts and agreements with Flock. In over two months that this request has been pending, LAPD has refused to produce anything more than a single, expired memorandum from 2025. But LAPD has had agreements with Flock going back at least 7 years. We have no doubt that LAPD's secrecy is correlated with one of LAPD's major Memorandum of Understandings (MOU) with Flock "Safety" expiring on July 11th of this year. In an attempt to prevent community scrutiny, LAPD is suppressing documents that would reveal the exact terms of LAPD's access and oversight of the Flock's growing surveillance network. As several dozen cities and counties have banned the use of Flock, LAPD appears to be violating the Public Records Act in order to protect and conceal their partnerships with Flock Safety. As Flock continues to criminalize immigrants, sex workers, protestors, abortion, gender-affirming care, and everyone who passes a Flock camera, we demand th…

In true Los Angeles fashion, we’ve got a presser happening outside LAPD HQ on Flock cameras on one side, and a simulated protest being filmed for a TV show being filmed on the other. Weird man.

Minneapolis, MN - Many many more agents filing into the area around the hotel. Minneapolis PD announcing everyone is under arrest, telling them to sit down with their hands up. An ad hoc journalist squad being told to go further down the street. Chemicals irritant deployed in the road.

Transgender patients of Children's Hospital Los Angeles secured a win this week after the U.S. Department of Justice agreed to end its efforts to obtain personal and medical information of more than 3,000 young patients. calmatters.org/healt... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ

Feds back down from seeking medical records of 3,000+ trans youth

After families sued, the Justice Department agreed to withdraw its subpoena for personal and medical information of transgender patients at Children's Hospital Los Angeles. Advocates called it a "fishing expedition" without evidence of wrongdoing.

Californians are NOT going to vote for Gavin Newsom. They're telling you now, with YEARS to go before the election. Fair warning. Please support better candidates, there will be many to choose from.

NEW: Far-right agitator Jayden Scott was detained by federal agents at the Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis on Jan. 15 after instigating violence. He was released a short a time later. It's unclear if he was charged with anything. Scott and others attempted to provoke the anti-ICE protesters.

Protest against Bass broke out, mostly by people who were in the CSD panel with me. Good to see public opposition to Bass for her inability to get the LAPD under control (and for other reasons). I wasn’t part of the protest, but stood with them to ward off a police sheriff heading towards them

The main reason we started this giving circle was because families like Mohamed’s were going weeks without support. That’s still the case for them, displaced in a baking tent and reliant on YOU for basics. Give / find his link here. 2473/3200 by Saturday chuffed.org/project/hope...
