Video appears to show an explosion set off by federal agents as they entered a Huntington Park home in an early morning law enforcement operation that startled a woman who was inside the house with her two young children.
They will have links to local protest and activist groups.
Ask them what they need. They will be the most in the know for your area.
You may have a skill that they require that you could do in you free time, you may just be an extra body to help carry items, or pad out a protest. Financial donations might help but don’t feel obliged if you’re not in a position to. People power is more important than financial power.
Encourage friends and family to do similar.
Try not to feel mad as everyone around you continues life as normal and accuses you of being a paranoid conspiracy theorist.
Read, be informed of what you’re resisting and why.
Stay hopeful. Don’t let the bastards grind you down.

They finally all believe me, after 20 years of being judgy. I can’t say I really feel a sense of relief though. And they still think it only impacts other people instead of them….
The next escalation will be from expanding the protests until they can be organized into a general strike.
People need to stop going to work. Together. All at once. A lot of people. Enough that they can’t be replaced and that important things that the government and billionaires rely on, stop happening, potentially for a long time. The country needs to shut down, like COVID. This is going to have consequences. But it has to have consequences. That’s the point. Consequences for both sides, and more consequences until the situation gets resolved, one way or another. People have to come to terms with the fact that they’re going to lose their jobs anyway. This is really just accelerating the inevitable. People are losing their jobs right now, when they are deported. People are losing their jobs when they’re imprisoned. People need to realize that no one is safe, and in the longer term the way things are going with AI and robotics and utopian techbro billionaires owning everything and being handed whatever they want by the government it seems clear you’re ALL going to lose your jobs at some point, so why not now? Do it early, in a coordinated fashion, for a cause. Accept the inevitable consequences, and turn them to your advantage by doing them with intention, on your own terms.
Everyone thinks they have a great job when they have to confront the possibility of losing it, but that’s the scam. You have a shitty job, working for someone else who is much, much richer than you and your shitty job and its “benefits” are the reason you are not rich despite living in the richest country in the world. There will be new, better jobs to get when you win. If you win. The need for these jobs to be done isn’t going away. It’s time for people to start creating some intentional artificial scarcity to drive up wages while there are still things that can’t be easily or effectively automated.
People have to organize, and do it quickly, while there is still time. A lot of people are still trying to “prepare” for what’s coming but that’s not a luxury you have anymore. They’ve been preparing for this a lot longer than you will be able to. The clock is ticking, the administration is working furiously to remove the people it considers most dangerous to its goals and remove the systems and supports that could be used against it. The more you delay, the worse it’s going to be. Time wasted “preparing” is time wasted, period. The time for action is now. The rebellion is forming. Be part of it.
Today is Sunday, my day off. What should I do? What are you doing?
