Mayor Garcetti is a liberal white supremacist - @DocMellyMel

It’s always a pleasure to document her powerful work.

“As we talk about a white supremacist terrorist like Donald Trump remember that we live in a city that is largely liberal white supremacists. So, when you say ‘Fuck Donald Trump, make sure you say Fuck Eric Garcetti’” - @docmellymel

Thank you @_PublicComment_

During the investigation, he sent Moonves’ lawyer a text saying he would tell the investigating officer to “make contact & admonish the accuser tomorrow about refraining from going to the media and maintaining ‘her’ confidentiality.”

This same LAPD captain, Cory Palka, has been outed as the cop who conspired with and leaked info to Les Moonves to help cover up a sexual assault. Two hours after the victim gave a confidential report to LAPD, Palka leaked the full thing to Moonves. He was a commanding office.

A cop took a knee with protesters and later made a white power hand gesture in a live interview.

Taking a knee is a photo op. They gas, beat, and detain you as soon as the cameras are gone.

People are so desperate for a Project Roomkey room that Davon Brown commandeered a hotel room to demand Garcetti move faster. IN MAY 2020. Garcetti had him arrested. The project has only slowed since. See the whole story here https://t.co/X5wszQBsy7

I asked for an update on Project Roomkey, a program that quickly gets high-risk homeless people off streets by placing them in leased motel/hotels rooms. "We've got as much supply as people from the street right now are asking for, in terms of capacity," Garcetti said. Hmm.

On Saturday -- community members, over 10 organizations and the family of #DijonKizzee -- came together in Westmont to demand that @JackieLaceyDA charge the deputies that killed Dijon w/ murder. Here is a short video that I filmed of some moments from the march. @LATACO

Hey Justin, let's talk.

We accompanied our comrades @BLMLA on Sunday to make sure the mayor was up.

[#BlackLivesMatter-LA @BLMLA]

Early Sunday morning (8/2) wake up call on the heels of his announcement that Garcetti chartering a new, permanent LAPD Bureau appropriating our call to #ReimaginePublicSafety

#DefundThePolice doesn’t mean fund the police.

Dolores graciously invited us to share her story. It's a story that countless people living on fixed & low-incomes know across the city of LA & across generations. Join this weekend's teach-in hosted by @NOlympicsLA about stadium development as a tool of capital to control lives

[NOlympics LA @NOlympicsLA]

LA’s ruling class has a long history of using stadium development to drive out poor Black and Latinx communities.

Join us on Saturday 7/18 at 12pm for a conversation with community members and organizers who have been fighting back since Day 1.

RSVP [email protected]

[NOlympics LA @NOlympicsLA]

There's no cleaner indicator of the priorities of LA's ruling class than shutting down the largest COVID testing site in LA so the Dodgers could play an intramural game.

[Albert Jaragua Corado 🔻 @digitalurn]

The March for Mely will be on July 19, 2020. We'll start at 2pm outside of the Northeast LAPD station and end at the Trader Joe's in Silverlake where she was murdered by LAPD. @BLMLA will be there in support as will many other local orgs. Huge thanks to @muttparty for the poster

Looking for a new place in LA? Don’t forget there’s a citywide rent strike and you have 12 months to pay back rent...

This is ridiculous. @TwitterSupport unsuspend this account now!

Never take Mayor Garcetti at his word when it comes to black lives. Davon Brown showed us all less than a month ago that the @MayorOfLA loves to use police to punish black lives

[Public Comment @_PublicComment_]

Davon Brown and @streetwatchla seized a vacant room in DTLA’s Ritz-Carlton to demand @mayorofla follow through on his empty promises.

In response, Garcetti guaranteed Davon a room and gave him a jail cell.
