Hey everyone, @nithyavraman continues to lick boots just as hard as her most fascist City Council colleagues. Nithya knows how cops brutalize people with military equipment. She doesn’t give a shit about anyone as long as she has a path to becoming mayor. x.com/LAPublicPress/…
The LA City Council has authorized the LAPD to continue using tactical and so-called “military” equipment. The city council approved 10-2 the LAPD’s report enumerating its use and inventory of such equipment, as required by California state law. lapublicpress.org/2024/11/la-cit…
Adam Schiff voted yea, in case you’re wondering how deep his “resistance” goes
BREAKING: H.R. 9495 has FAILED to pass a vote in the House, with 256 voting yes and 145 voting no. It has failed to clear a 2/3 majority required to pass under suspension vote.
These 52 Democrats voted to give Trump the power to shut down any nonprofit he wants. The NAACP, ACLU, Planned Parenthood, no organization would be safe. Shameful. clerk.house.gov/evs/2024/roll4…
US House voted 256-145 to pass HR 9495—short of 2/3 required. Would empower Treasury Sec. to revoke nonprofit tax status of orgs based on judgment they're “terrorist-supporting.” Concerns it'd help government (esp. Trump's) attack pro-Palestine groups. 52 Democrats in favor.
Imagine running a city for two years and not knowing this.
Mayor Karen Bass only recently realized that L.A. doesn’t have a sanctuary city law on the books. She said that needs to change before Donald Trump is sworn in. audacy.com/knxnews/news/l…

I was also told by one of my publishers that PEN America asked if I would withdraw should my translation be nominated. I thought nothing of it and said I am indeed part of the boycott. But this article makes me wonder if this was an intimidation tactic. truthout.org/articles/liter…
