Speaker Mike Johnson confirmed on Monday there’s “been some discussion” of tying #California wildfire aid to a debt limit increase.
Blaming LA Mayor for #LAFires is like blaming the Mayor of Hiroshima for the Atomic Bomb.

"Which surveillance technologies are California police using? Are they buying access to your location data? If so, how much are they paying? These are basic questions the Electronic Frontier Foundation is trying to answer in a new lawsuit called Pen-Link v. County of San Joaquin Sheriff’s Office.
EFF filed a motion in California Superior Court to join—or intervene in—an existing lawsuit to get access to documents we requested. The private company Pen-Link sued the San Joaquin Sheriff’s Office to block the agency from disclosing to EFF the unredacted contracts between them, claiming the information is a trade secret. We are going to court to make sure the public gets access to these records.
The public has a right to know the technology that law enforcement buys with taxpayer money. This information is not a trade secret, despite what private companies try to claim."

Fruit at the Marina Sunday farmers market. This stall was very good. I think it was called Ken’s
This market is year round, and also has the 3 for $5 veg deals
Part of being an immigrant is looking at Chinese restaurant menus and guessing (often correctly) what type of regional Chinese food they serve. They tend to have a ‘Chinese food for everyone else’ menu and then often a handful of stuff that is maybe their true heart’s desire.. at a very poorly rated Chinese restaurant in Marina, CA, that upon further investigation looks like it does excellent Korean Chinese.
The presence of ‘jjampong’ and ‘jjajjangmyeon’ (and lots of Korean speaking people) gives it away. Also they proudly state house made noodles. So yay

Oakland, Calif., Mar. 1942. A large sign reading "I am an American" placed in the window of a store, at 401 - 403 Eighth and Franklin streets, on December 8, the day after Pearl Harbor. The store was closed following orders to persons of Japanese descent to evacuate from certain West Coast areas. The owner, a University of California graduate, will be housed with hundreds of evacuees in War Relocation Authority centers for the duration of the war

Three related drought refugee families stalled on the highway near Lordsburg, New Mexico. From farms near Claremore, Oklahoma. Have been working as migratory workers in Calfornia and Arizona, now trying to get to Roswell, New Mexico, for work chopping cotton. Have car trouble and pulled up alongside the highway. "Would go back to Oklahoma but can't get along there. Can't feed the kids on what they give you (relief budget) and ain't made a crop there you might say for five years. Only other work there is fifty cents a day wages and the farmers can't pay it anyways." One of these families has lost two babies since they left their home in Oklahoma. The children, seventeen months and three years, died in the county hospital at Shafter California, from typhoid fever, resulting from unsanitary conditions in a labor camp

i'm not condoning violence
but i understand the inescapable result of endless abuse
more need to understand, and i fear they insist on coming to understand only the hard way
"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable"

All kinds of Malthusian nonsense on the internet about how California is incompatible with this level of human settlement etc. This is fascist ideology masking itself in environmentalist terms.
We can build buildings out of less flammable material. We can build in higher density, rewilding suburban areas. We can severely restrict fossil fuel use in LA County.
We have the resources, they are just not distributed fairly.

Another thing.
#Altadena is a historically Black neighborhood. Tied into the work that John Brown’s sons did after his death and their migration west, along with being a free state, Altadena #California was one of the only cities to outlaw redlining, allowing Black families to purchase houses in the developing area.
This is why so many legendary African Americans come from this area - from Octavia to the directorial icon John Singleton.
It’s devastating on several levels.
