Depsite the ICE raids drawing our focus, we finally completed this year long project @LATACO and on time for Mexican Independence Day. (And for those that argue Los Angeles isn’t in Mexico—it was when it gained its independence from Spain.) check it here, lataco.com/best-mexican...

DAILY MEMO: Agents Have Started Taking People on The Freeways and A Closer Look at The Stereotypes Used by SCOTUS in Their Opinion on ICE’s Restraining Order @eltragon.bsky.social

I got to talk with @lataco.bsky.social's @eltragon.bsky.social about his tireless documentation of immigration raids in LA, and how his knowledge of the city's street food scene makes him a better immigration reporter

an @lataco.bsky.social x @msnbc.com crossover is something I've been wanting to make happen for months. so much respect and admiration for what @eltragon.bsky.social and the team have been doing all summer documenting ICE raids in L.A. honored to have him on while I'm filling in for Steph this week.

Please donate to keep my friend Terriann housed! She’s a mother of three, does so much for the community, and has been working hard to get sober.

They’re just the nicest and sweetest people aren’t they?

Looking for a female that recorded a fight on Saturday 8/16 around 10:30pm at the Hollywood park casino. She has a lot of information that can help my friend who was brutally attacked and is currently in coma fighting for his life. Thank you.

If you ever see me drinking a negroni, old fashioned, or moscow mule, please punch me in the fucking face

DAILY MEMO: ICE Continues Arresting Mothers and More ~ @eltragon.bsky.social

Superman and the superheroes fought Lex Luther almost every day. But it was journalism that took the billionaire and a would be genocidal king down. Remember that.

Today’s Daily Memo broke me a bit, but then as I posted, this of agents pinning a pregnant woman came up. I will keep reporting through the pain because it can’t possibly compare to what these families are enduring.💔 Please America, we need you to stand up. This shit aint right.

Join @eltragon.bsky.social on our IG live today at noon. We know there’s a lot of questions out there about ICE or the current situation in L.A. and he’ll try to answer any questions you may have. Bring your tacos.

If only the Mayor used her power to order police to … A) stop unmarked vehicles and masked vigilantes to identify them. B) follow agents and document and report every civil, constitutional, and human rights violation. She can’t order them to interfere, but this she can.

It’s Friday, June 27th, the 22nd straight day of the ICE siege of L.A. Topics: - ICE Raids (targeting street vendors today) - HP arrests ICE imposter - What happened in Huntington Park - FBI Ambushed an activist - Another US Citizen detained by ICE is released - SCOTUS ruling @eltragon.bsky.social

Police shoot flash bangs at Protesters from the 101 Freeway over vehicles in traffic. @eltragon.bsky.social

So why are protesters against ICE attacking Waymo’s in L.A.? @eltragon.bsky.social has some answers.

In today’s Daily Memo, @eltragon.bsky.social talks about Trump’s chicken shit TACO Trades. Trump’s Taco Trades is not what you think. TACO is now an acronym used by financial analysts to describe Trump’s tariff threats. What do you all think about this?

I’ve heard from chefs and kitchen staff that used to work in Santa Monica that say there’s always been a huge cockroach problem in their restaurant kitchens and are surprised these places don’t get closed more often. Re: Bay Cities getting shut down and Erewhon before that.

This taco stand under the 10 fwy is making tacos with huge fresh corn tortillas. @eltragon.bsky.social Tacos 5 y 10 sets up Thursday through Monday on Hauser Blvd in the West Adams neighborhood.

Today I ate Tacos, Peruvian Ceviche, Colombian Empanadas Serbian Sausages Also snacked on Ice cream Street Fruit cup And finishing with Crepes for dessert. All for work. My life as a food writer in L.A.

Took a break from my usual behind the scenes duties @lataco.bsky.social to write about this giant rolled up taco.

There are three must try places when you visit Santa Monica, according to @eltragon.bsky.social , and they’re all close to @metrolosangeles.bsky.social E-Line, the best way to get there to avoid traffic and parking. What are your favorite recommendations?

In recognition that L.A. has the best tacos outside of Mexico, officials are looking to capitalize on the food that unifies this city. The new tax accompanying this legislation will fund raises for politicians, dog parks, and police: lataco.com/city-of-los-... Written by @eltragon.bsky.social

@eltragon.bsky.social @lataco.bsky.social Got me back on Cielito Lindo, even better than I remember!!

My life is nothing but solo dates around L.A. It’s how I discover new parts of this city and food is the great introducer. Cheers to this tik toker for encouraging others to do the same.

The kids are saying, “we’re going through a meme drought right now. We haven’t gotten our monthly brain rot.”

We sent @eltragon.bsky.social to eat as much as he could at Dodger Stadium and give us his recommendations. Here’s what he had to say about their tacos and the rest.

Today’s Daily Memo: The city of L.A. passed 5 new resolutions aimed at protecting immigrants. @calonews.bsky.social has a full report with a link to the all the motions if you want to know more. @eltragon.bsky.social gives an overview.

And right after they tried to scrub Jackie Robinson from history.

There’s a sandwich hack at Philippe’s, it’s funk on top of funk, and we call it the James Brown.

I wonder if they’d let you take these on a plane?

Hadley brings a bottle of “The Worst Booze on Earth” from Chicago to our studio. 😂 @eltragon.bsky.social
