LA City Controller Kenneth Mejia
🚨 P.S. Do you want to know what the City has transferred so far from this "separate account" that's "holding these LAFD raises?" $35,025,000 to mainly pay for the City's Liability Payouts and litigation / outside counsel costs. FANTASTIC! x.com/lacontroller/s…
LA City Controller Kenneth Mejia@lacontroller

Btw the money that they keep saying is being held for LAFD's raises are in this "separate account" HASN'T even been transferred to the LAFD's operating budget as of this date! How do we know all this? Because we're the City's Accountant! We know the City's budget and finances.

While firefighters were running out of water… Rick Caruso, the real estate developer and former L.A. mayoral candidate, hired private firefighters to save his upscale shopping center in Pacific Palisades on Tuesday night. The question is: did he use public water for this?

@BillKristol In 1980, Jimmy Carter and the Pentagon stifled South Korea's democracy by supporting the murderous general Chun Doo Hwan in his suppression of the largest uprising for democracy since the Korean War. Koreans fought back and won their democracy for themselves. You're a fool.

We are living through a historical period where a tiny network of billionaires has teamed up across USA/Russia/Europe/Middle East to absolutely destroy the futures of everyday people and our planet, all to further enrich themselves. Just like Karl Marx predicted, actually.

If this country didn’t treat incarcerated people like they’re subhuman, this story would be all over every news platform. But because these are Black men and the US prison system is the evolution of American chattel slavery, people don’t care.

“In a span of just two weeks, a dozen Black men at Red Onion prison in Virginia took the same desperate measures, setting themselves ablaze. These are not acts of protest. These are human beings driven to extreme lengths, hoping for relief from torment.” prisonradio.org/news-update/se…

Hats off to Bernie Sanders, Jon Ossoff & Brian Schatz, the 3 Jewish U.S. Senators who voted for legislation to restrict offensive arms sales to Israel. And to liberal American Jewish organisations like J Street that advocated for it, also. The Overton window is slowly shifting.
Yusuf Sarfati@y_sarfati

Liberal and progressive Jewish organizations like J Street and Americans for Peace Now lobbied in favor of the legislation, setting a new precedent about prominent Jewish organizations willing to hold Israel accountable in this form.

I don't think it's hyperbolic to say Biden has prioritized slaughtering Palestinians over doing anything whatsoever to help Americans weather the supposedly imminent end of our democracy. It is, by all appearances, the only thing he truly cares about.

Last night: White House lobbies senators to vote AGAINST blocking aid to Israel This morning: Biden administration vetoes anti-Israel UNSC resolution Not the lame duck the left was hoping for

Trump plans to recall retired officers to active duty to court martial them for Afghan withdrawal will be a disaster for military morale and a political bomb for him. The Uniform Code of Military Justice is a codified Congressional statute and operates under Federal law…. not Stalinist show trials.

A frequent tool of dictators is to label political opposition groups as "terrorist groups" and shut them down. This bill - up for a vote this week - would give Trump the power to do just that. It's disastrous. And apparently there are House Democrats CONSIDERING VOTING FOR IT!
The Tennessee Holler@TheTNHoller

⚡️ UPDATE: The bill to let Trump “crush dissent” (HR 9495) will see a floor vote Wednesday. Call your reps.

Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt
Likely raped to death. A doctor. A stellar surgeon. The embodiment of Palestinian ethics. Likely raped to death. The racism of Western media who are not covering this, and Western politicians who are not denouncing this, together with the thousand other testimonies and allegations of rape and other forms of mistreatment and torture that Palestinians have suffered in Israeli jails, is absolutely sickening.

Nominating Russian-asset Tulsi Gabbard as head of National Intelligence is establishes a direct pipeline of state secrets to Putin. Matt Gaetz as Attorney General is also unconscionable, given he was under investigation for his role in an underage sex trafficking case.
