1/31 I believe there is growing evidence, that the White House is covering up the fact that Donald Trump has been dealing with TIA strokes. AND that he likely had a more significant ischemic stroke this week.

Not correct. State law (SB54) says that unless they have a warrant signed by a judge (they usually don't), then local govt agencies are not allowed to help the feds. There's no reason they couldn't make them leave the property if they want to lay in wait to ambush people getting healthcare.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Fellow lawyer friend of mine who does Immigration in #LosAngeles sent this. #ICE is denying people legal counsel; tear-gassing the lawyers they do allow; tear-gassing small kids. This is only the beginning; having basically memorized Project 2025, I can assure you, things only get worse. from here.

Been watching various live feeds of LA. Vibe I'm seeing is that the areas where protesters are facing against police, things are generally peaceful. Areas where protesters are against feds (ironically with generic "police" shields) they are instigating violence and firing tear gas indiscriminately.

A common misconception is that it ended the war in Germany. It did not. Fighting desperately pressed on for nearly another year before Germany surrendered. Keep that in mind as we press against fascism now. Even if we manage to reach a hight point, we may still have a long hard road to push through.
