Gee, I wonder why the LAPD is asking a judge to temporarily suspend the court order forbidding them from using force against the press?

Ahead of this Saturday’s No Kings protests, the Los Angeles Police Department has filed an emergency motion asking a judge to lift an injunction that restricts the use of force against the press.

The injunction creates “undefined and operationally impracticable standards that expose the city and its officers to contempt for good-faith actions taken to protect the public,” according to lawyers for the city, including City Attorney Hydee Feldstein Soto, and the police department.

Prominent Atlanta Journalist Deported After Covering Anti-Trump Protest

UPDATE: Mario Guevara was deported from the United States early on October 3, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists. The Spanish-language journalist Mario Guevara may be deported to El Salvador as soon as today despite holding work authorization in the United States and never having been charged with a crime. Guevara, who founded the outlet MG News, where he received awards for his coverage on immigration, has lived in the United States for nearly 20 years. He was arrested and jailed in June for live-streaming an anti-Trump “No Kings” demonstration near Atlanta. “Mario’s case is really the tip of the spear, and today’s deportation is deeply troubling,” says lawyer Nora Benavidez. “It is because of his journalistic work that they targeted him. They really do not want what he’s doing to expose ICE.” Benavidez also responds to the attempted deportations of pro-Palestine immigrant students on U.S. college campuses. “It really mirrors the way that Mario has also been targeted because the government, very similarly, simply went after him for his speech,” she says.
