A vigil was held Thursday night in front of Lorain City Hall to honor fallen Lorain police officer Phillip Wagner.💙

Officer Wagner died Thursday following a shooting Wednesday that left two other officers injured.

Sending condolences to the family of Police Officer Phillip Wagner and praying for the other two officers who also were injured.🙏🏻

It's better to let mentally ill people buy and use meth and fentanyl on sidewalks, believes Gavin Newsom, than arrest their drug dealers, and them, and mandate rehab.

But enabling Mexican-Chinese drug mafias to murder mentally ill Americans with fentanyl, as they do everyday and did again a few hours ago in San Francisco, as the video above shows, is barbaric and pathological.

I thus applaud Trump's announcement that he will crack down on open air drug use and the government policies that encourage addiction.

Harm reduction led to drug deaths rising from 20,000 in 2000 to over 100,000 in 2023. The federal government should have acted decades ago to stop the barbarism.

Seventy percent of Californians last November voted to crack down on fentanyl. Newsom opposed that measure (Prop 36) and is starving its implementation of resources, for the simple reason that he needs Soros money for his presidential run.

Californians should support the federal government in, finally, doing the right thing on addiction and the drug death crisis.

Today, we honored the life and legacy of Sergeant Shiou Deng.

Sergeant Deng was more than just a supervisor at West LA Division. He was the heartbeat of every watch, the one lifting spirits with humor, kindness, and food (especially pizza). Whether he was cracking jokes or offering reassurance during tough moments, he made everyone around him feel seen and supported.

Joining the LAPD in 1998, Shiou served across multiple divisions with unwavering dedication — including over 16 years in our Mental Evaluation Unit, where he brought compassion and calm to some of the most challenging situations. He wasn’t just good at his job — he was made for it.

He had a way of saying “Don’t worry, it’s going to be okay” that actually made you believe it.

To his family — thank you for sharing Shiou with us. He made us all better.

Rest easy, Sergeant Deng. Serial No. 35049. You are End of Watch, but Never Forgotten.

⚠️Traffic Advisory⚠️

Alameda between Aliso and Temple.

Use caution in the area due to protestors in the street. All lanes of traffic may be affected.

Watch: Kevin Kiley is calling for multiple federal investigations into how Fire Aid is distributing $100 million in aid.

"The most important thing is to see exactly where the money went and to restore the confidence of the people who gave so generously."

Fire Aid isn't giving directly to fire victims but is giving to non-profits...who are tasked with giving out the $.

Rep. Kiley says Fire Aid contacted him directly after he spoke on the House floor.

"I give them credit for them reaching out...I'm certainly open to hearing whatever they have to say."

The two shared a tearful hug.💙

Good night to all! 😴
