Like most Americans and certainly all Los Angeles residents, I'll always remember where I was when the brave masked agents of ICE launched the Invasion of...ummmmm...Park and boldly protected America from....uhhhhhhhhhh...dog walkers and...hoooooo...I wanna say...ice cream vendors? Swings?

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

1. LAUSD preemptively trains staff on how to protect students from immigration authorities

2. training succeeds, principals and teachers repel lying Feds

3. superintendent clearly and unequivocally tells the public the Feds lied to illegally access children

Is your school district this ready?

Effectively eliminating Medicaid would be catastrophic in a myriad of ways that many people are blissfully unaware of because they don’t how deeply Medicaid is woven into our society. If you care about public health, jobs, hospitals, the economy, or just people being alive: Call your reps.

Republicans have just proposed defunding Planned Parenthood nationwide.

In doing so, they are telling women and people across the country that our healthcare doesn’t matter and that we are undeserving of care.

It’s time to stop this bill in its tracks.

This is insane. Republicans have inserted language into the budget reconciliation bill that would ban states from regulating AI in any capacity for 10 years.

92 years ago today, the Nazis raided the Magnus Hirschfeld Institute for Sexuality, where the first study of trans people was conducted, and burned all of its contents.

Fitting that today is also the day SCOTUS greenlights the project of the eradication of trans people from society in the US.

My name is __.

My zip code is __.

I am calling as your constituent to express alarm at the Abrego Garcia case. Trump is openly defying the Supreme Court by not bringing Garcia back. If you allow Trump to do this, then he is unquestionably a dictator, and your job as my member of Congress is to remove him at once.

(For Reps:) I ask that you immediately introduce Articles of Impeachment in the US House, and block all other business until they are introduced.

(For Senators:) I ask that you block all business in the Senate until Articles of Impeachment are introduced in the US House, and when they pass the House I expect you to vote to impeach.

Thank you.

Here's what I've learned watching hundreds of writers build careers: The ones who make it stop thinking of scripts as lottery tickets and start seeing writing as a craft worthy of years of dedication. Your 10th script has a much better shot than your first.

High School Musical: The Musical: The Series helmer Kimberly McCullough is directing. Production is set to start in the fall.

Deadline article, continued.

Written by Nerris Nevarez-Nassiri, No Te Olvides (Don’t Forget) is an intergenerational story that follows three generations of Mexican-American women on a journey that sparks healing, humor, and unexpected romance. The film centers on MarΓ­a (Gomez), a closeted twenty-something Chicana whoβ€”against the wishes of her workaholic mother, Celestina (Perroni)β€”sets out to fulfill her grandmother’s dying wish: to return to the rural Mexican village where she was born before Alzheimer’s erases her memories for good. Perroni will play the role of Celestina. 

The project reps the inaugural feature from Estrada’s purpose-driven entertainment and wellness development company, Con Ganas. Kristina Rivera produces alongside Estrada, with Peter and Fernando Bandera of Bandera Brothers Entertainment serving as executive producers.
