I live there and didn’t even know it!
Who owns the news?
Our media, like law enforcement, and the judiciary, has been compromised! we are becoming the dictatorship Trumpturd desired, faster than we imagined!
Hasn’t been our media for a very long time
The news is owned by the billionaires. End of story.
News media won’t cover stories like this anymore because they’re no longer neutral. Forget about winning over the press or even persuading politicians. It’s a whole new game out there and the tools that worked in democracy won’t work in fascism. Time to relearn how to play the game.
Give credit to the independent media like Democracy Now and Free Speech TV as well as Medias and Substack. We also have many progressive Democrats who are sounding the alarm online, in town halls, and on tv. Find support from Indivisible and Move On.
How do we play this new game? I see posts from people from other countries saying Americans are all just letting this happen, it frustrates me no end! Got any ideas?
I wish I knew. Only thing I can think of is look to history to see how people cast off fascist regimes and oligarchy.
Join groups like Indivisible and Move On. Follow Democracy Docket on BlueSky and YouTube to keep up the court cases being won against the tRump regime. There is a growing resistance.
If the press doesn’t stand up to fascism then only the masses can stop it!
all media is already controlled by election we will have no commucation
Insane! I hadn’t even seen anyone post about this here!
Simple: If you cover it, donald says that you'll lose your broadcast license.
Considering how few news sources have broadcast licenses, that shouldn’t matter.
It's cowardice, really
Yep.
It looks like they're doing "parades" too. At first I thought someone reposted a video of the No Kings protests but I'm very familiar with that street and noticed a building that had scaffolding up that day is clear in this video. Anyone from LA have more details on what's going on there?
Why only TikTok? Are there not other platforms with similar reach., is there a cabal going on?
More sounds from the "LA Music Festival". I'm looking into why posts with the "P" word aren't showing up on TikTok and YouTube. www.youtube.com/shorts/nhJNA...
What do you mean? It's the LA Music Festival (wink, wink, nod, nod). Coming to your town soon. Just don't call it that other thing and it won't get censored.
I'm not sure about other cities around the US but I think it's time for a "music festival" in Seattle. How about the Seattle Center tomorrow? Instruments optional.
Violin cases at the ready?
My advice at this point would be that's fine as long as it has a violin inside. 🤣
🤨
This needs to be one of our Anthems. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wa-...
Take your pots or pans and a wooden spoon. Make some noise and some good trouble
They’re all cowed.
Thank you Los Angeles! I appreciate you!
Have we come to "Ho hum, another protest" and default to whatever; meanwhile, Trump said/did yada yada, with his vile orange face on the news ... hourly, daily, ad nauseum. LA, you stand in the gap! Carry on ....
Tell them to gather to pray at the churches. Media won’t be invited. Media be running over there.
THANK YOU ALL FOR FIGHTING FOR AMERICAN DEMOCRACY!
That's fascism when the media are in cahoots with an oppressive government and their hired goons to look the other way as people are shoved in concentration camps and as good people protest such treatment of their fellow community members.
No more news outlets in L.A.? I’m very surprised because it’s such a BIG CITY! 🤔
So incredibly frustrating
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Because the media cow tows to Trump.
I tried to pass it on whenever I find it but you’re right we’re not getting enough coverage. I wish I were down there fighting with you. I hate this red state. I ended up being in because of my parents and I can’t get out cause I can’t afford to get out I’m with you.
Look at those numbers... 🎼Let freedom ring!🎼 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
1st Amendment violation! Spread the word!
no one is jailing for talking. its not a first Ament. the owner is allowed to choose if they want a user and sadly for us the regime has seized control of ALL social media. they own the tv stations, newspaper, Zuck controls fb, musk control twitter, Johnson made sure TikTok government overreach!
Is this old footage?
It was a question. The OP dated the video It’s not time stamped. I’ve seen other people posting video from LA June 2025. Reality matters. Love to see LA protest again the orange monster. Keep it real.
Why is it dated today if it’s old footage?
Sigh. This is the internet now. I miss Web 1.0/1.5.
They aren’t being covered because the protests are peaceful and it doesn’t fit their narrative. Protesters need to beware of agitators who want them to look unhinged.
@meidasTouch
What’s wrong now! Know they are getting paid so it’s ok. Let’s keep the anger going. More anger so more votes. People vote in anger and emotion not niceness and logic
😡😡😡
Legacy media is owned by the fascist party.
It’s owned by toxic capitalists
Not only in the US. Also here in the Netherlands, there is a severe lack of information in the mainstream media of everything happening in the US. As if this ain't big!
It really is disheartening that the msm won't show up and stand up for us, except for a very few. Why?? Too scared of the regime? No motivation? Not deemed newsworthy enough? Stopped by their bosses?
It's happening, it's out there, it's news, for Pete's Sake. And it's the only counter we have to the lies that fox and the regime are spewing! Instead of sitting back, work with us here, guys!!!
#StayCalmStaySafe..
The Corporately Owned MSM is afraid of offending the Mango Mussolini, that's why there's no media coverage.
Lawrence O’Donnell on MSNBC is pushing back against this corrupt presidency hard. It’s encouraging there are still some of these voices breaking through in the media but we need more. bsky.app/profile/jj-c...
MSNBC does. And they hammer trump & repugs 24/7 about everything.
does anyone hear Gil Scott Heron somehwhere?
I mean honestly it's because they're all on the same block every day at the same exact building they were told not to go to over the past three months and you can only watch so many people get loaded onto a bus before the plot is lost
Maybe get away from the Fed building and go to Home Depot? I hear it's hella active
Shared! 👍
Of course not, ABC paid off DJT in 2024 when Stephanopoulos called him a rapist, CBS paid him off in July to merge w/SkyDance & CNN has shareholders who are MAGAs. I recommend independent news sources: @meidastouch.com @aaronparnas.bsky.social @donlemonofficial.bsky.social @katiephang.bsky.social
Also: @marcelias.bsky.social @democracydocket.com @therealjackhopkins.bsky.social @adamparkhomenko.bsky.social @briantylercohen.bsky.social @chrislhayes.bsky.social @mollyjongfast.bsky.social @mehdirhasan.bsky.social There are a lot of independent outlets on here & Substack for real content
Wow, we are definitely not paying enough attention to this! I'm mad 😡 at Trump, too. Sorry.
"News" is dead.
Media in this Country is a complete disgrace. Bought by MAGA wealthy.
GREAT JOB L.A. 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸
Seriously? No coverage on KCAL, KNBC the others? The broadcast constituents are the advertisers not viewers.
If this was happening, there would be tons of coverage. It's not happening. You cannot keep anything that snarls up traffic in LA a secret. We have local, state, country, independent, and international reporters here, in this blue city in this blue state, & protests are covered here endlessly.
Let's fix this shit, people! @abc7.bsky.social @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy @cnn.com @cnn-news.bsky.social @nbcnews.com @latimes.com @nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @thetnholler.bsky.social @theguardian.com @us.theguardian.com @msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @lastword.msnbc.com @demcast.com
Not gonna lie, I’m starting to think LA’s protests are more secret than Area 51. Media, where you at?
It's very difficult to combat this lie. I was born & raised in Los Angeles & have lived here for 66 years. Have you ever noticed on the TikTok videos they're never say what street they're on. They never say the location, because it's not happening. It's old videos they're trying to palm off as new.
So they're protesting non-stop for 336 hours straight... and the media hit snooze? Someone call the headline-makers!
The funny thing is, in LA local media wouldn't even consider this a political story. It's a traffic story. We get traffic reports every 15 minutes. If there's a car chase, a fire, a protest, everyone in LA knows about it. Everyone drives a car in LA. Traffic-stopping protests aren't kept secret.
The revolution will not be televised
Thank you for posting and for reporting.
We see you.
Try this. Please get on the phone or e-mail and tell your reps in DC what you think about ICE/mass deportations. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. We just need people to participate.
Did you see the story out of Pittsburg where there is video of ICE kidnappers bringing people out of a restaurant thru the front while other ICE thieves were emptying the restaurant of all material goods, food etc out the back door? Insult-Injury (they also trashed the place)
No, I did not. Unfortunately there are still marches going on in LA that you not being covered. The way to resist all this is tell your reps in DC what you think. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. We just need people to participate.
Yes I live in Pittsburgh,saw it on my local news.
The country appreciates every single protester! It matters.
This is another example of Republican billionaires controlling the national media to protect their fascist takeover.
ItS tHe LiBeRaL MeDiA!
That doesn’t exist really
Hence the way I posted it. There is a depressing lack of ability to adjust fonts. They did try to launch a liberal version of the news, once upon a time. The thing is, -SANE- people turn off the news occasionally. It makes it less than profitable for them, apparently.
MSM is in the bag for corporations
Protest in DC, liked (maga) they did on jan6th. We saw how afraid congress was, a million Americans respecting the constitution Must stop the destruction of democracy. Those with ears listen.
please can someone tell me what is going on in Los Angeles
ya we bored of all the professional protestors
Angry 😠 😡 😤 🤬 😠 😡 😤 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬
The No Kings Protest in June, got some coverage in Danish media. But nothing about ongoing protests. It's all about Trump, Epstein and maybe a little bit about Texas. Censorship has steadily increased since November. I only hear about these things on TikTok from independent journalists.
What you’re doing here is awesome. Please, KEEP POSTING……just KEEP POSTING!! 💞
@maddow.msnbc.com
@papst-ny.bsky.social
WE WILL repost, spread the word, share video streaming !!!!
Wow. I did not know this protest has been going on nonstop for 2-weeks. Where is the national coverage for this?
Rachel maddow is the only coverage for this.
Legacy news isn't following maybe, but it's getting plenty of YouTube coverage!
Again, I ask, to what end? The same result occurs if everyone was home making more productive plans.
Such as?
There are many endeavors for a creative mind, on both sides of the debate.
And people are doing those things too. Just let people express themselves and band together how they can instead of criticizing them.
Then you cover it and post far and wide. Stop supporting the networks that are Trump conspirators.
No one can cover it because it's not happening. I live in LA and I drive in the city every day. I have friends who work in various parts of the city. No one sees these protests. And no one on TikTok will ever say what street they are on, although I recognize downtown LA. It just isn't happening.
Wow, thank you. I guess there is bullshit on both sides of politics.
Trump has scared the media!
This is why we are lucky to live in the Age of Information where facts are available at our fingertips. The Greedy Oligarch Party may own the news outlets, but they are not in control of the entire population.
Yes but unfortunately the algorithms of mainstream social media, point people in different directions. Telling them only what they want to hear. The social media owned by Zuckerberg, Musk and Trump. Unfortunately most people use these media, and only few are on channels like Bluesky.
I am extremely encouraged by the increasing number of people on Bluesky. I am also old enough to know that the people who are directly hurt by the TACO FOTUS Regime/Greedy Oligarch Party will come around when they are personally harmed by their actions/rulings.
I hope so. But I also fear that for a lot of people it id impossible to admit that they were wrong. They don't thrive on facts. They already saw what happened on january 6th and they already knew lots of what Trump said was bullshit. But lots of them rather go down with it than admit it.
You are correct that there will always be people who are adverse to the truth. Flat Earthers, for example.
Can’t trust corporate media anymore.
News outlets are up Trumps butt. It is all about money. Money over people.
More NEWS Outlets than NOT are beyond Shameful & Pathetic! I have lost TOTAL Respect for them! They have kissed Trump's poisonous ring @ABC @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy @NBC!... Rachel Maddow is the only one you can count on!
@chenoweth.bsky.social Your fact-based analysis has generated further research. #temetics
Be ENCOURAGED !!!! WE ARE WATCHING YOU ‼️‼️‼️. Their censorship of you, reveals their FEAR ‼️‼️‼️. Independent media is our window to the ENTIRE WORLD 🌎.
Why not? Trump put a threat on the media?
This is the first I have heard of this too!! WTAF??? Send this to Rachel Maddow on MSNBC...she will elaborate, interview people, ask other networks WHY this is not covered!
👆🏼
And in the humidity at 91°F
One would hope that news networks would see their duty to report the news without fear or favor and cover the situation in Los Angeles. Has their corporate courage been so prostituted to the Reich Wing to such an extent that they have no sense of duty to the public left? SHAME!
There is a HUGE need for small, independent news organizations to start up and fill the gap that MSM has created. Meidas and others are starting to report real news but ya’ll need more.
Please repost this message. The reason there’s not much or any coverage is bc they want to normalize #ICE-RAIDS! The MagaNazis want people to go back to school, move on, & forget or accept the Inhumane Cruel Entrapment of nonviolent immigrants. This was not just a summer protest. This is ongoing!
film, and send it to Youtube.
They’re afraid of Trump. Despicable. Same for the republicants!
We need to organize and plan another No Kings Protest
How about the Spanish news stations Telemundo and Univisión?
I don’t know how to post it on TT or I would post it! Senior. Don’t know how. Thank you guys!!
Putin controlled media, I mean pedophile Trump controlled media.
Because the criminal billionaires have bought all the news companies so they can control.
Yup
Then move those protests to DC. They’d have to cover it then.
Nonsense. ‘They’ have ignored protests from the left for decades. Unless there is violence they can exploit.
Fear?
Yeah they try and hide everything.
They're so brave going after all those "violent criminals". Guess they're too Proud to go into gangland.
Heck, Trump gave the real crime family asylum. Recent reports and statements indicate that in May 2025, the Trump administration allowed 17 family members of Sinaloa Cartel leaders to enter the United States.
I heard about that.
Disgraceful. Is she ok?
Yes, they did allow her to go the hospital (many bystanders were demanding it and surrounding them to force them to allow medical care). She had to undergo emergency surgery and did indeed have a heart attack. She is going to be OK now, but has to take meds for heart and PTSD as a result.
Gosh, where have we heard "I can't breathe" being ignored before? 🤔 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
They are monsters viciously & enthusiastically following orders Please let there be Karma ( or prison ) in their future
These rent-a-bullies were bound to murder some innocent person eventually, I hope this woman gets justice for the way she was treated!
I think we'll get vengeance before we get justice
That's perfect, then.
I can only hope she sues for unnecessary force. The way these thugs behave is pure gangster.

Thank you for posting the full story!
There was never any criminals. Remember that a criminal is a criminal because of a conviction, why would he not be in jail ?
I get that MANY people entered this country illegally, but for most, I don't think deportation is the right course of action. If they work, pay taxes, contribute to society in a meaningful way, built a life and family here, do not engage in violent crime, what's the problem with them staying here?
Adding further to my previous post regarding the immigration issue, I would honestly invite any conservative on this platform to have an open discussion with me her on bsky regarding this issue.
The GOP has been catering to a mainly white base while playing up their racist fears and ignorance for years. Couple that with the trend that white people were on track to become a minority by 2050 and I don't think its a coincidence that the GOP is so willing to go along with Trump's facism.
2) They're options are either find a way to cheat the system or change to become more inclusive and progressive. But God forbid if they ever question their biases and become better people so instead we have to go thru this shit cuz the right is too proud to go to therapy and admit they were wrong
Every place I've ever worked with a sizable Mexican employee population has someone selling tamales as a side hustle. Sometimes they're not supposed to for some idiotic reason, so we just make a deal and go to the parking lot or just off property. Best tamales ever.
💯💯💯! These are members of our communities EVERYWHERE and we won’t tolerate these vicious and violent attacks on them. They need to FOCUS ON CRIMINALS and leave innocent people alone! Maybe this isn’t about crime, there sure isn’t as many criminal Latinos as they say there are! Racism?!?!?
Some idiotic reason, like following the law.
No, there's nothing unlawful about a private transaction. It was against company policy. So we followed it. Strange that one would think offering tamales to fellow workers is criminal.
I have not heard anything ..
It’s a shame Luigi was one and done
So none? What does the donald have on even moderate news outlets jfc!!!!!
@msnbc.com ??
Haha. They are just corporate crap.
Is the first time I heard and see it ,
Um ok first time hearing about this, so how is this going?
This is the first time I heard of this and that’s a big problem.
Same. But a 1 day shutdown won’t do much. I did my Trader Joe’s run yesterday and the farmers market is tomorrow. My not shopping today, multiplied by everyone else’s, will be an unnoticed blip. We need to pick one target and keep the pressure on, like was done with Tesla. Suggestions?
I agree
That's because simply posting stuff like this online is the absolute worst way to organize a strike. You need on the ground organizing, you need workplace organizing, you need orgs who are capable of motivating people involved, and most importantly, you need to provide alternatives.
Some people can't afford not to show up to work or avoid shopping on a given day, and a well organized strike will provide for those people in a meaningful way. None of that infrastructure was put in place. So this is going to be meaningless.
Agreed, and at this point one day is not enough to get on the radar, IMO.
Only if we keep it up for more than a single day. Make like LA, no more protesting at nine to five, then clocking out. Bring water, blankets, tents, barbecue grills, etc.
I stopped watching the news for this exact reason. They’re not mentioning any of the protests. Eff them. I’m not going to give them ratings for reporting nothing.
#LAMusicFestival
Post them here. Truth is shared here. ❤️
SHAME MSM!! Again you’re spending too much time on TSF and not enough of PROJECT 2025, EPSTEIN FILES and ALL THE DESTRUCTION TSF HAS DONE TO USA.
In the interest of transparency, an informed electorate and discussion, could a news outlet do a big report on the flow of public funds to security of gov. officials? Include costs of cars flown to destinations, etc. Include comparisons with costs borne by taxpayers in other countries. Cover why-s.
FYI @crzyfkinworld.bsky.social As you posted. Local and National news is not covering the ICE protests in Los Angeles. #censorship
We, the people, need to have a “people owned”media outlet. No millionaires, billionaires, or bootlickers telling us what the people should be allowed to know!
Check out Free Speech TV. It’s on DISH
🤔
Keep Protesting!!! Word is getting out and people are joining!!!
Probably because the protests are organized and concentrated in areas that are hopelessly blue. Who cares how many people show up for these "grass roots"(ahem!) gatherings in California, Washington, New York and Massachusetts? Most of what makes up the electoral college is so sick of your petulance.
It is absolutely infuriating... The news is really being controlled by buddies of Donald Trump
That and the billionaire owners want to remain on the mad orange kings good side (until they aren’t).
Correct
They're on the list, too.
You bet
Love the music festival

Thanks for covering this. Please, keep it up. It's now reached me, out of state!!
Notice how this regime was all in on social media freedom of speech when it pertained to hateful, violent racist, sexist, and misogynistic posts. But not when it's criticism of their reign. We have to be our own news, we need to start building spaces to communicate that arent owned by the oligarchs
@indivisible.org THIS is what we should all be doing!!!!
I bet Rachel Maddow has.
She is the only one that I have heard covering the protests.
I think she IS the only one. Thank goodness for her.
MSM only reports when they can make the protesters look bad so that the police can justify arrests in some cases killing and beating them up! 😱🤮👹
This post is the first time I learned that the people of LA have been protesting. Shameful that there has been no coverage whatsoever!
Wow, thanks for sharing this. We generally have better, more truthful news in Canada than the US, but I didn't know about this at all. (Then again, ever since TrumpPedo was elected, I can't handle watching the news or even late night shows that make fun of him). Please keep sharing this far and wide
Utube independent media are covering it
If anyone is covering it... that would be @maddow.msnbc.com
Be the media you want to see. People at protests should be flooding social media with pictures, instead of waiting for mainstream media to do what they aren't going to do. It is the visual politicians can't stand to see.
The bias and manipulation of these major news media outlets is just blatantly obvious now. It is time they learned that the people they are broadcasting to also have voices and opinions *and* a class interest in them not fu king lying to us or deliberately leaving important things out of their news.
Trump probably told the executives of the major networks don’t. This has to stop. What they need to do is tell trump to pound sand
There have been protest in the Bay area as well, none of it covered but I know the ICE agents cannot move without us knowing where they are. Newsom should step down, his inaction on this attack on our country and state is unacceptable.
People deserve transparency and protection.
There is only one way to get that back.
I'm in Canada & I never knew about this. Where are the international news outlets?
C’est pour cela que nous,citoyens des États-Unis mais comme moi aussi et européens nous devons diffuser et publier sur les réseaux sociaux les plus vus et plus lus,des photos et vidéos de toutes ces contestations,oppositions et manifestations que monde puisse voir et savoir ce qu’il se passe ici à
Los Angeles pour sujet qui nous occupe ici mais aussi partout aux États-Unis 🇺🇸 ou autre part dans le monde si la presse est incapable de faire le minimum de son job ou qui ne le fait pas consciemment. Bravo et soutien ✊ à toutes ces personnes courageuse qui manifestent chaque jours 👍 👏🇺🇸✊🇺🇸
@nbcnews.com @abcnetwork.bsky.social @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy @nytimes.com @wsj.com @msnbc.com Cover the protests!

CBS has a govt moderator now. They aren’t allowed to cover certain subjects unless the govt says it’s ok.
CBS is no longer aired in this household.

Woah :(
Can’t remember the last time I watched cbs
China? Russia? Controlled government? I hate trump. 👹 I hardly recognize our country. 🇺🇸 Very sad.

I have to say, the coverage was at least being posted on indivisible or 50501. I haven't seen any. Now that I know, I will join tomorrow.
Beat me to it
@maddow.msnbc.com #LAprotests
Nobody needs their spin
Journalists! Do you really want what’s coming if the US goes full fascist? Do you have any love of your country? Open a history book and take a good long look at life under the Nazis. DO YOUR DAMN JOB!
They don't care. They're complicit cowards who favor profits over people.
The revolution will not be televised
Think about who owns the media outlets. Doesn’t matter if it’s video, print or online, the oligarchs control the mainstream narrative.
Some may be people whose healthcare is linked to their jobs.
Not those who make the decisions regarding what airs.
Short term thinkers obsessed with their own selfish, ego-driven goals
bsky.app/profile/did:...
Well maybe they are learning the hard way. It might sink in then.
There won't be any profits when we're all dead because of trump.
Indeed. They lack the imagination and foresight to recognize that the efforts to increase their power will completely destabilize it. What good is money when society collapses? I'm deeply worried that we're past the point of no return. 😞
They have nothing to gain by covering the protests. Does anyone get their news from newspapers and broadcast TV anymore?

Since you're not going to tell us what the protests are even about, I'll just assume that it's about the NY Yankees using those "torpedo bats" all season. It really feels like cheating. So yeah, count me in on those protests as well. Darn media not covering it! Grrrr!
abc7.com/amp/post/ant...
Need to light up some more Waymo’s
To the people they are protesting against, it just looks like loitering. The protestors have a purpose, but the ones being protested against honestly don't understand what their problem is: hence the NEED for the very protest they are ignoring, but the message is SO not being received. No comprende.
They don't want to understand. When it's Nazi in the streets or January 6, suddenly they don't care anymore about the 'riots'. Same thing with 'law and order', 'tough on crimes', but they still elect a felon, which pardoned a drug dealer and worst.
They want to BE The Law. Whatever god they believe in will back their play. That's how Abrahamics rolls. They can commit sins and atrocities then just ask their god for absolution. "It's okay when we do it. It's not okay when they do it. Doesn't matter what 'it' is." The MAGAt Mantra.

Not covering the alligator alcatraz hunger strike either...
Thank you L.A

Tell everyone to join BlueSky. It will help the resistance!👊🏻💙👏
I'm here to laugh at the 3% who are bothered by the Sweeney ad, as well as all the petulant children who "feel good" because they have a sounding board that agrees with them 95% of the time. At least on X you get to view some counter arguments and it's not all libtards kissing each other's butts.
> I'm here to laugh at the 3% who are bothered by the Sweeney ad Wait, so you are admitting nobody cares about the ad, and Republicans made a mountain out of a molehill?
The only non-violent option we have left is a general strike and mass boycotts to shutdown the economy
Any local coverage or are they cowering also?
Local news are mostly owned by “media conglomerates kept the ABC, CBS and NBC brand affiliations that people knew and trusted while hiding the identity of their ever-changing owners.” Sinclair owns lots of them. newsliteracy.psu.edu/news/the-new...
Even international news, such as BBC and CBC is failing to cover it.
Had no idea. Appreciate the truth and facts. @cnn.com @msnbc.com have become unwatchable. I’m reading all my news, but not enough time in a day to get it all. I’m white. My aunt who raised me is Costa Rican. I’m sure y’all know the anger & saddens I feel. We will fight this! We will win!
The Meidas Touch, and Katie Phang and so many others that all have YouTube channels. It does hurt that main stream media is hiding 🙈 and doing what Trump wants them to. The networks are all to afraid.
Well that’s what happens in a fascist authoritarian run government
@4til7.bsky.social
Of course not! As we have learned the media isn’t what it used to be. If so they would be attacking Orange relentlessly like they did Obama, Biden, Clinton there’s a pattern here.But a guy strolls for a walk on the roof with no security near him. And the media sees nothing wrong with that. Shameful
Did not know!
News on protests appears to stop about end June.
You need to watch Rachel maddow. She's the only one covering the protests.
I do follow her. I was looking up international press coverage, to see what the world sees. Al Jazeera is usually pretty good. 11 June is last news report I can see (from Australia).
We have no news anymore - they are owed and wont offed the pedo pres.
Umm I'm pretty sure Rachel Maddow has covered ALL protests and continues to do so. (Sadly, she's only on Monday nights)
If it weren't for Rachel Maddow I wouldn't know about any protests at all.
Same. Her reporting has a way of comforting by reporting the protests. If it wasn't for her, I would not have known about any of it.
I agree! Seeing the protests gives me hope and makes me feel a little stronger. We need to see that people are standing up...
I believe that with all the chaos, not only at the WH, but from losing rights, and what a possible new world order may be coming, ppl just can not absorb anymore and the protests can not break through.
www.mobilize.us/indivisible/ Here's a link to planned protests
Thank you!
That's how I found out about the mass protests and the growing movement is by social media. Before then, I was TV only in getting my news. If I didn't discover social media, I wouldn't have known they were happening.
Same. Our local stations didn't even have info.🤬
Our local paper didn't cover the ones that got 250 people, but it covered the last one (after the fact) that I missed. It had 15 people because no one knew about it. That they reported on.

For protests, look for your local 50501 here or on instagram, most states have one and even some cities do too.
I've attended 4 protests in my little RED town this year, but it seems like they've given up. It's frustrating. The last one I missed (July 17th) because it wasn't advertised anywhere, & suddenly it popped up in my search after it was almost over.
That's what I'm feeling. It's petering out. It's such a large movement, and we Americans are so impatient.
And if it does peter out, we're all in trouble. We've GOT to keep it up.
Yea. I haven't seen many advertised either. I'm not sure if it's a matter of spacing out the protests so people don't get burned out or what. I think the only protest that would work now is if millions marched into DC.
It used to be advertised on Redit under r/50501
May I suggest connecting directly with Indivisible.org or similar groups. Resistance takes many forms: protest, boycott, non-cooperation, mutual aid, strike. www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...
I really wish that the traditional media covered it.
They usually only mention the after the fact details
They are not likely to cover as it's not always in their interest. But searching social media using a # hashtag such as protest or rally can help find them.
Thank you!
Gladly.
Each state and some cities have subreddits. That's where people are loading pictures and follow-ups. Check out www.reddit.com/r/50501/
Good tip. Thx.
We’ve had major ones every few weeks since the start of the year, and ongoing actions happening around specific issues. Join the resistance so you are connected to what is happening. We will never defeat this if people don’t get more involved!

🫡 thank you
The showing video clips and naming cities now is showing up in some of the other MSNBC programs.
www.fiftyfifty.one Here's a link to planned protests
FACT.
Quite a few solid independent journalists on YouTube >>Meidas Touch Network<< Also: Marc Elias BryanTaylorCohen Harry Sisson Michael Popok
some youtubers are already seeing dippss, google owns YouTube-------------be prepared for more censorship
Christ.
There's so much to talk about in the 1 hour times they are given that even the most pro-democracy channels such as MSNBC choose to cover the novel and consequential attacks against democracy and the rule of law. More events and opportunities can be found here: www.mobilize.us?utm_source=m...
Yes and unfortunately they all mostly cover the same 3 to 5 topics over and over all evening. Rachel always is a little different and 'big picture ' compared with the others though.
Truth!!
But she really hasn’t been covering the more recent ones in LA.
Maybe Monday...
Once a week is not enough to ease my mind. But I respect her boundaries. @maddowblog.msnbc.com has said she was getting sick doing the 100-days 5/week schedule.
Me either, I felt so much better when she was on every night. But I'm sure it is very difficult, especially since she generally goes much deeper than the rest. She's excellent.
Notify all platforms. Don't be limited. We will not be silenced.
Absolutely!! They are so many and growing every day!!!
The media is cowering to the felon.
Question, I wonder if they're not covering it because trump's disastrous presidency is taking the news cycles and hogging it? I've noticed between a Rollercoaster news day and a slow news day from dear leader. It appears that news consumers maybe tired of all his crap and have 0 more brain cells
To get emotional about it.
porque nos aburres
The Fascism is here.
Biased/slanted reporting by KTLA WHY did they ignore the days and days of protests, only to highlight these two protesters who today were charged with "assaulting federal officers" ?? www.msn.com/en-us/news/c...
From the KTLA story today about the two protesters who were charged with "assaulting federal officers."
So glad you are doing some reporting on TikTok on your own! Way to go!
We see it and we are sharing as much information that comes across.
I’m surprised Rachel Maddow hasn’t covered this on her Monday night show (unless I missed it). Anyway, I tagged her on this and hopefully others do too. I tagged a bunch of other media as well.
I went on the TikTok account and tagged a bunch of media.
Keep posting to get the word out! Our local media didn't cover the Rage Against the Regime. They just gave a history of the protesting at the park. All the media acts like idiot trump has got something on them. They need to stand up and fight with us.
We're watching and calling our elected officials! 202-224-3121 Donating $$ to the resistance but I don't know what else to do. I fought these battles back in the 60s and 70s. Now I'm too old to do much more than $$ and phone calls.
Where is this? I was dtla today
I see you and appreciate you.
Project 2025 is on schedule and on track. A primary initial objectives is to take over or silence main stream media. Looks like it is working! All we have left is social media. Speak out and speak loud. Soon, that channel of communication will be restricted also. Resist! Or capitulate!
Get publishing, everyone. Don't let them take your voices.
Mainstream media is now a propaganda arm of the Republicans so I'm not surprised. Independent unbiased journalism is so important now.
Keep posting and reposting I social media platforms
They won’t because they don’t want to inspire other protests. We really need massive, massive protests in DC. I think the excessive heat in the country has put a damper on protests too.
The news outlets don't want to pay tRump.
@maddow.msnbc.com - Could your team check this out?
Mainstream media is failing the American people!
They’re all afraid of he who shall not be named
News media are wasting their time on the BULLSHIT coming out of Trump’s racist mouth. We are organizing to kick these racist ass white boys out of office. KEEP IP THE GOOD TROUBLE.
It is time to BOYCOTT those news outlets.
We the people must share this.
There should be a post that shows all the protests small or large going on everywhere in this country.
I look for that. Thanks
Yet millions of people across the nation still tune into ABC, CBS, NBC, after they lay down their protest sign and put their feet up and click on the TV.
The news media is afraid of retaliation! They have lost their ethical drive to report the facts. They have all kissed the ring in fear rather than report the public s disdain for the clowns!
what? F! and i am here, in Montreal, in utter astonishment that Americans are taking the orange garbage (and the garbage he produces) easy. i am both relieved that it's going on and mad that there is no coverage ~ it would have lowered my blood pressure a long ago to know that there is pulse
I know! And I've been there! We're getting no love, except from Rachel Maddow. The numbers could - and need - to be expanding. More Angelenos need to bring a spritzer and hit the blacktop.
This should be happening across the Nation.
There are persistent protests like this in my area. Vermont is really small. Will never pull off something LA is doing, but every little bit helps. www.wcax.com/2025/08/06/p...
We may be small, but we're powerful! Vermont Strong! (Brandon, Vt.)
They're frequently on the overpasses on the interstate. We recently bought a mountain cabin and coming from Oklahoma, I cry tears of joy when I see them. A little hope goes a long way
In Vermont? On I-89? I believe you. I want to join them lol.
Yes. 89 and sometimes 91
Ooh! I'll keep an eye out. I live near 89.
I love you, Vermont. Small but mighty
works for me. Go Vermont!
I still go to protest, but I don't think they do much. People in Georgia ( country not state) have been protesting for over 200 days.
They are not covering any acts of resistance. I live in a rural red district. 2-3% of my town’s population actively protests on a weekly basis.
Thank you for letting us know!
There afraid
Back in 2004 about 300K people came out to protest the RNC in Manhattan about Iraq. Zero coverage. Our 4th estate is a joke and a failure.
Hate to contradict you, but I am currently watching the news covering a 17 year old leading these protests. You see jot being ignored.
** EDIT ** You are not being ignored.
