Our great city of LA & many others that surround it are going thru a LOT. Some, like ⁦‪@RickCarusoLA‬⁩ & his minions have used this tragedy as a way to score malignant political points. If ⁦‪@MayorOfLA‬⁩'s name is in YOUR mouth, speak TRUTHFULLY. www.dailynews.com/2025/01/09/f...

Factcheck: Was the LAFD budget cut? No, it actually increased. Here’s how.

Critics on social media have alleged that Mayor Karen Bass cut the city fire department’s budget by $23 million this year.

Those who left the bad place, did you delete your tweets first or just deactivate?

#tweetdelete is taking FOREVER to close up shop over there for me and I didn't want to just deactivate.

I wanted to delete the old but still pop-in quarterly to randomly post Black folks stuff to anger the Nazis.

TheDiplomat on @netflix. Stop what you're doing and get to it right now. You still have the holiday weekend to get the 14 episodes done.

I was a bit late to the party like I was with #TedLasso but joining you all who already knew has brought me such joy.

Watching @sarabareilles.bsky.social's New Year Special at the Lincoln Center. She referenced the first Women's March in 2017 and her "I'm so glad we fixed it and it's all better!" with a look to the heavens with a pained "Help!" just sent me! #MyArmorComesFromYou

When I say run, don't walk, you way over to @netflix.com to watch this brilliant film by #TylerPerry with this BRILLIANT cast led by @kerrywashington.bsky.social PLEASE DO IT! #TheSixTripleEight is WONDERFUL! #LOVELove!!

At least the smoky-eyed beast is honest. In a month and a half they will be serving "America" to a gleeful hoard of complicit, idiotic and/or willfully ignorant white supremacists who think they somehow just "won".

Take Strength from the Helpers

Pay attention to those who have refused to stay silent in the face of dangerous pardons, attacks on the vulnerable and desecration of the Constitution

You're watching a white supremacist -- who bought himself a "President" and an election / country -- doing the Nazi salute to the supporters of the "president" he helped install.

Um. What did I just watch?

Realize what @RickCarusoLA is trying to do... hint, it's not help YOU.

Don't fall for the okedoke.

The LA fire budget was INCREASED by 50M, not cut by 17! #RunTelDat! x.com/lappl/status...

Decent people, remember that evil people will use our inherent decency and desire for everyone to be okay for their ultimate gain every time.

We're wired to care about others so past remains prologue, but still...

Lela Rochon Fuqua And Yvette Nicole Brown Embody Sisterhood In ‘The Family Business: New Orleans’ | Essence

From generational wealth to fierce loyalty, the latest installment in Carl Weber’s universe is more than just a crime drama—it’s a testament to family, culture, and the city that inspired it.

The great Jimmy Carter sold his peanut farm to make sure no one thought he was trying to gain riches from the Presidency and this fecal smear is hawking everything under the sun gleefully.

I hate this timeline.

Trump must divest from his businesses that may pose a conflict of interest ahead of inauguration to avoid violating the Emoluments Clauses.
