Are you home, safe? I had a writing class today. We had 3 writing prompts. One was "long sentences with lots of ands" and I wrote about you and the LA protests. Their jaws dropped when I read it aloud. One very cool woman said you're their hero (I said: Mine, too.) and asked me your first name so she could chant blessings for you.
What a fucking waste of taxpayer dollars, to activate the national guard for absolutely no reason--other than stirring rage in the MAGgots, making himself feel omnipotent (i.e., "Only I Can Fix It"), fomenting yet more division and hatred, and...wait for it...distracting from his disastrous Big Piece of Shit Deal and the trouble he's having getting it passed (among other things). He's just gotta get those numbers up on "mass deportations" to show he is the cruelest of asshats. Let's make sure he can't distract any more.
He’s the smallest and pettiest of men. And he is surrounded by the worst people. Not one of them cares about any of us. By us I mean any citizens. They could not care any less.
No doubt it's a distraction, but a dangerous one. He does not want people to focus on the Big, Horrible Bill, the tariffs, or his war with Elon, so why not terrorize the immigrant community of Los Angeles, outrage all of us, and then deploy troops against us when we rightfully stand up for our community members. I don't believe the National Guard or the Marines can be happy about any of this, and as much as people love to be angry at the LAPD, I think they are in a shitty position, too. They have to keep things under control, or this administration is going to declare Martial Law. It's all insane. It's an absolute effort to create and then escalate a situation here in California because he hates California and he hates immigrants. And it's a good way to rally his base, sadly.

Aw Wendy, I am home safe, yes and that is so kind. I am just hoping so much things do not escalate here 🙏🏼
