The BET Awards was in LA tonight. What does have to do with anything? LA is not the hellhole trump et al is making it [View all]

out to be. Yes there are protests, but nothing on a large scale and LA is functioning as normal with an awards show and lots of pre- and post parties.

As per Joy Reid earlier today. She was in town and describing what was happening, saying the protests are nothing like what the media or trump is portraying

By the way, it reminded me that one year ago, Taraji P Henson talked about Project 2025 at the BET Awards and searches sky rocketed. Sigh, they looked, but didn't listen. Here we are.
