Polling reveals that Donald Trump's moves in Los Angeles are very unpopular and that the nation's second largest city has won the political perception battle over Trump.
Way to go LA & California! Each & every state, city, town, etc. must do exactly the same thing. The Dodgers just provided another great example for businesses to follow. We need to help these people as much as possible. This insanity has gone way too far & it's got to stop. American citizens are getting caught up in this mess along with citizens from places like Germany, Canada, Australia. The masked gestapo must be stopped & what's with grabbing people off the street without a warrant, without identifying themselves????😡 I've read stories of criminals pretending to be immigration officers in order to assault & harrass people.
Take note that even the Kardashians decided to condemn the Trump-led repression of the L.A. protesters, like if even the billionaire Angelenos who are completely disconnected from the region-wide social movements still love L.A. enough to willingly defend it from the Californiphobic ICE gestapo.
*PS: This is also worth-mentioning that despite their extreme affluence, most "Hollywood celebrities" are still strongly aligned with Blue America against the increasingly fascistic GQP.
We care deeply about this. They do not. Their whole system and hierarchy is devoted to collecting humans in order to abuse them. No polls will stop any of this. They have potus, guns, permission and the psychology of tyrants (zero empathy allows one to do anything without a second thought). Every day I wake up to the thought 'Is he dead yet?'
It is being stopped. Trump isn't hitting his deportation quotas and he never. The problem is our mainstream doesn't want to report on his failures, but don't believe what the administration is saying. They are failing on this in a big way.---Jason
Nothing will change if Trump dies today. Change comes in November 2026. Taking total control of the federal government away from Republicans will bring change.---Jason
I disagree. I don’t think the republicans would be so devoted to following the couch fucker in lock step. And there will probably be a huge internal battle over who will lead the party next. We still need to focus on 2026, but the sooner trump is dead the better off we will be.
Yes and no. Trump as a cultural avatar has been decades in the making, and he has a unique cult of personality that none of the other operatives in his regime can replace. The problem is, he's not the one really in control. He's a wrecking ball and useful idiot for the true power players behind the scenes: tech billionaires like Peter Thiel, the ghouls behind Project 2025, and white nationalists like Stephen Miller who are just plain evil.
To move forward as a society, this regime and the ideologies driving it need to lose legitimacy, end in utter disgrace, and languish into irrelevance. It's not as simple as one guy dying.
Yeah, gets tiring having to check the phone to see if you're gonna wake up dead.... to remember, I only have to look up, not ahead to find all the peace and love that surrounds us.... technology is our forced prison and the irony is we pay to be punished and if you don't believe me, turn off location services turn off all AI delete all social media from Meta how y'all discovered you have $1000 telephone glued to your ass that no one answers because we hide behind a written communication that does not show emotions doesn't...20% of society is full of amazing creative types who need to see body language and hear a real human voice to have complete communication. It all started with emails. When I saw all the tech pros standing behind agent orange at the white house I literally vomited....
We care because these are our friends and family members, our neighbors, and our community. The way LA has responded to Trump's attacks on our city have given me so much hope. We are seeing how brave regular folks can be when we stand up to protect the ones we care about.
He might be losing in the polls but I can tell you people in LA are increasingly being targeted by ICE. They are everywhere. Beloved businesses are closing out of an abundance of caution. This is not what winning looks like. Just the other day in Pasadena an ICE agent pointed a gun at a bystander shooting video of a raid that saw 6 people taken away in an unmarked van. This does not look like moving on to me.
I'm proud of my fellow Angelinos, but ICE is still out here, dudes. We just rode side-by-side with an ICE-UV. I kept my middlefingers up every time we were next to them.
They are going to be there and everywhere else as long as Miller and Trump have that absurd 3,000 deportations a day quota in place. The goal should be to get rid of the Marines and the National Guard.---Jason
Americans are rejecting Trump’s actions because no one wants Trump’s ICE goons in their cities taking away friends and neighbors. The majority aren’t buying into his “criminals only” farce.
He's already moved on. It actually did stop him. The protests are stopping him. The public backlash is stopping him. They were already targeting blue cities before Trump said anything, so don't fall for the BS. He is losing, and losing badly.---Jason
Thank you, California for standing up for justice, the constitution and all immigrants in protest and peace. You’ve set the example for peaceful protest👌💕✌️👏😍
OK, so remind me again just how many "illegal immigrants" the "saint" Ronnie Raygun gave amnesty to.....was it 2 MILLION or 3 MILLION? That's right, it was 3MILLION.
With these people hypocrisy is a feature not a bug.
Next big protest will be July 17th. I will be protesting as I hope you will be too! Trump has to be shown how unpopular his administration is. We can't be cowed! We must follow what LA has begun!

We need to keep this up Everywhere!
Always. Forever. Taking turns…

One of my favorite signs last week said “Alexa, is he dead yet?”

Thank you, James. Finally somebody who speaks truth to power.
As I commented somewhere weeks ago, I think we need, each of us, to try very hard not to allow them to turn us into them.
If he died today, it would be the best day ever. Why hasn't he been destroyed yet??

This is war and nobody wants to call it out

Thank you for telling the truth. I just posted almost the same.
Good reporting. Thank you!

This is not going to stop him. It is just enraging him. He has already retaliated by instructing I.C.E. to specifically target Blue states.
He's already moved on. It actually did stop him. The protests are stopping him. The public backlash is stopping him. They were already targeting blue cities before Trump said anything, so don't fall for the BS. He is losing, and losing badly.---Jason
What the Fuck do you mean? He is losing what???
His mind.
We need to keep going. Stopping is NOT an option.
There are more immigrants in red states and when people start losing their jobs and benefits it will become worse for him!
Minor quibble, here. Can you PLEASE proofread your posts, BEFORE they post? Frustrated former proofreader here.
Thank you (though composing on some of these "devices" is pretty hard, I find). Former long-time editor here.

Great. tRUMP was being vindictive bully!

Trump declared war on LA., And lost. It’s a good thing that he is the crappiest commander in chief/president in history.
Next big protest will be July 17th. I will be protesting as I hope you will be too! Trump has to be shown how unpopular his administration is. We can't be cowed! We must follow what LA has begun!
So who is actually listening to JD and what shit is he spewing? I can’t stand to hear his voice.
