The Washington Post Has Become Right-Wing Even Faster Than I Thought

It’s not going to happen. It’s happening: The mainstream media is becoming right-wing. What are wealthy liberals going to do about it?

The number of times I’ve seen film crews at this park where people take naps and concerts happen… I will say it a million times. But the most dangerous thing in LA is the police (and now ICE).

I've obtained a trove of leaked documents about today's federal crackdown on Los Angeles' MacArthur Park. One revelation is its codename: "Operation Excalibur"

As a mental health professional, I approve The Bear season 4 finale. And anyone saying otherwise is a sadist.

As long as immigration sweeps are happening in the communities that farm workers live in, farm workers will continue being detained and deported. Farm workers deserve REAL protections, so they can continue working without fear. www.npr.org/2025/06/16/n...

After early reprieve from immigration enforcement, farming industry reckons with raids

The Trump administration's immigration enforcement mostly left farms and meat packing plants alone, until coordinated raids last week. Now, President Trump is signaling continued support for farmers.

I love my little town. It was jam packed! We were corner hoping as each street corner had more and more folks join in.

Salem MA, they showed up loud and proud

While some kids are spending #FathersDay with their dads, recent raids in farm worker communities means we have kids who are tracking their dads to detention centers with airtags. #WeFeedYou

I’m so sick of hearing people get mad at news outlets owned by private corporations and the uber rich. Stop expecting them to be anything other than what they’ve always been and instead support independent news sources.

Remigration is a far-right European plan to expel minorities and immigrants from Western nations. This is neo-nazism.

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

I spit out my drink with this conclusion hahahha

THERE ARE NO RIOTS Guys. I'm in LA. I'm going to a variety show tonight across town. There are not riots happening. There are peaceful protests being fired upon. Peaceful means nonviolent hut it does not mean sedate. No rioting, no looting is happening. LA is protecting neighbors.

I see tons of reposts of lies from Fox News and the govt. instead of reposting and giving them a platform let’s keep posting what’s happening on the ground. Trying to argue law, truth, and logic with these folks has never worked. Stop wasting your energy doing it.

No uber. No uber eats.

I don’t know I feel like if AI can write a whole executive order and lay off half the federal workforce, it should automatically skip the intro of every show I rewatch

Impossible to post all of the videos from today but here’s LAPD unloading dozens of rounds at the barricade. They did this for over an hour.

They do whatever they want. They’re unhinged.

Decades of evidence of terror from the LAPD.

Peter Flax@pflax1.bsky.social · last yr.

One thing I saw a lot this afternoon was individual cops just getting annoyed by an individual and then suddenly clubbing or shooting rubber bullets at them. With all sorts of LAPD superiors, hundreds with phones and media present. Like they can just go off in public if they're feeling pestered.

The LAPD is so violent

Robert Saint Lawrence@robertsaintlawrence.bandcamp.com · last yr.

LAPD when they think no one’s looking

I am on the other side of the world from Los Angeles and I just heard a news grab on our national radio station of Maxine Waters telling a cop "Are you gonna shoot an elected representative? If you shoot me, you better shoot straight" and she remains one of the best to ever do it

Literally. Stop trying to get approval from the system.

wes(is no longer)injapan@wesinjapan.bsky.social · last yr.

Nothing you can do that works against the system will ever be described as "peaceful" by the people who uphold that system.

Peaceful protest don’t exist in LA cause the LAPD are violent af. LA unified school district has its own dedicated police department. We spend more on police in schools than mental health services. Folks not from LA can go ahead and stfu about anything peaceful now.
