Marisa Kabas of The Handbasket is my proof of concept that independent journalism can be rigorous and vital. One of my current top 3 recommended news sources. thehandbasket.co/subscribe?r…

I criticized Jeff Bezos' Feb. 26 edict regarding @washingtonpost's Opinion pages, but I am glad that, almost two months later, the section is still running vital viewpoints such as this: Mahmoud Khalil: What does my detention by ICE say about America? wapo.st/4czL2dT

“One analogy is domestic violence. Flooding the zone with abuse. It’s destabilising; you’re fearful & overwhelmed. What Trump is doing is meant to cause paralysis. People are so overwhelmed they lose sight of what to do.” independent.co.uk/news/world…

This was a bit overdue, but I respected so much of @washingtonpost's coverage since Trump I that I was reluctant to pull the trigger until Jeff Bezos unveiled his new, fascist policy for the Opinion section today. Democracy has died in darkness.

Yes, I am sharing an article from The American Conservative. It was published in 2018 and describes what was in the food and drink that Americans bought and consumed before the government started regulating health and safety standards. theamericanconservative.com/…

📢 P.S. P.S. Our understaffed Office got our budget cut too. This eliminated 27 positions - mainly accountants who do payroll & pay the bills! 🤯 We're projected to overspend now because the City didn't account for our raises. Because of that, we have to find funds to transfer-

🚨 P.S. Do you want to know what the City has transferred so far from this "separate account" that's "holding these LAFD raises?" $35,025,000 to mainly pay for the City's Liability Payouts and litigation / outside counsel costs. FANTASTIC! xitter.cf/lacontroller/status/18…
Replying to @lacontroller
Btw the money that they keep saying is being held for LAFD's raises are in this "separate account" HASN'T even been transferred to the LAFD's operating budget as of this date! How do we know all this? Because we're the City's Accountant! We know the City's budget and finances.

After we're through these disastrous fires, we will hold a whole day's worth of our usual educational sessions where we educate people about the City's budget and finances. That's what we're known for. We will make sure to invite all these City officials too.

BTW, what's not being talked about is that Chief Crowley requested $914,975,620 for this current fiscal year's budget which started last July. INSTEAD, the Fire Department got $819,637,423, a budget cut of $17,553,814 from their prior year's adopted budget of $837,191,237.

This is from the LA City Controller. They absolutely cut services from all these departments (including Fire) to give money to the Police.
