During this week’s HB City Council meeting, Mayor Pat Burns whipped out some good old fashioned McCarthyism, which many in the room saw as an attempt to sway the vote as he’s up for reelection in November.

Let’s make it clear - socialists and communists exist in Huntington Beach just like anybody else, but his political opponents on the ballot are neither. He’s just targeting residents he’s supposed to be serving. Burns says he wants to put service ahead of politics; this does not live up to those claims.

Ranked choice voting could change how Irvine elects city leaders by reducing vote splitting and encouraging broader voter support for winning candidates.

🚨PROTEST ALERT: PATIENTS OVER POLITICS🚨

Healthcare is a human right, not a political bargaining chip. This Saturday, we're rallying at CHOC to send one message: Put your patients first.

CHOC leadership has announced they will end gender-affirming care on February 6th-weeks before any legal requirement and despite ongoing lawsuits from Lambda Legal and the ACLU against the federal government. We are demanding that CHOC executives reverse this decision, stand with their medical staff, and defend the life-saving care California's kids rely on.

We know this wasn't an easy decision for them to make, and we're here to let them know we will support them as long as they choose to stand up and refuse to comply in advance.

📍 WHERE: CHOC Hospital (1201 W. La Veta Ave,
Orange)
⏰ WHEN: Saturday, Jan 24 | 12 PM - 3 PM

🛑 TO TRUMP: STOP THE BLACKMAIL - Politics has no place in a doctor's office. We won't let federal threats dictate medical care.

🩺 TO CHOC: SUPPORT THE PATIENTS AND MEDICAL STAFF - We stand with the doctors and nurses being forced to abandon their patients, and the patients being stripped of their care.

🏳️‍⚧️ OUR DEMAND - CHOC leadership: Stand with us, and reverse this decision. Do not choose political survival over pediatric lives.

Organized by OCGAPNet, Pride at the Pier, and OC Indivisible.

Our First Aid for Protesters event on Saturday was a huge success! We gave out first aid kits and Narcan to every attendee, and spent nearly 3 hours learning with Wound Walk as much material about first aid in a protest setting as possible. We also raised over $500 for !

This was such a huge success that we are looking at doing not only an additional class of the same curriculum, but expanding to a more in-depth training. If this was ‘Street Medic 101’, we’ll also be doing a ‘Street Medic 102’, as well as collaborating with Wound Walk for CPR training and certification.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, and we’ll be sharing upcoming class offerings soon.

Together, we’re building our skills to challenge fascism as it rolls down our city streets.

🚨 Street Medic Training, brought to you by Pride at the Pier and Wound Walk OC

The rate of state sponsored violence at protests big and small has increased this year at a terrifying rate. That doesn’t mean we stop protesting, that doesn’t mean we stop challenging fascism and putting our bodies on the line for our neighbors. But it DOES mean we should develop the skills to protect ourselves and our neighbors in the process.

We’re going to try and cover as much essential info as possible in a 2.5 hour class this Saturday, November 8th, from 2:30PM - 5:00PM.

This includes:
• Stop the Bleed
• Tear Gas and Chemical Warfare
• Impact Injuries and Splinting
• Burns and Heat Related Injuries
• CPR overview and Mass Casualty Triage
• Narcan
• and more

We’re also going to be sending you home with Narcan and a basic First Aid Kit for you to start your own kit with.

We’re asking for $25 donation to cover supplies, but scholarships are available upon request.

Our founding language reminds us that when the government repeatedly and consistently creates and upholds systems that oppress us, it is our duty to resist. THAT is our American heritage.

Stay safe today and all days.

We all know that corporate lobbyists have poisoned our politics - but lobbying wasn't always tied to corporations and money. You have the right to set meetings with your electeds and ask them for their help.

In our second quarterly Know Your Rights, seminar, we teach you how.

Join us on today, Sunday, June 29th at 2:30PM.

We reported that HBPD was in LA on the front line last weekend. They denied it, and then obfuscated their involvement.

So we brought receipts. And now we're demanding accountability and transparency.

Pause to read if necessary.

Last night, our representative provided a Pride Month Proclamation for Huntington Beach, since the city council was not going to.

We were born out of Huntington Beach, and will continue to remind this council about that as they continue to make derogatory comments towards the q***r community for political points.

We aren't going away.

It's an irrefutable fact that this is the scariest Pride month that many younger, q***r Americans have ever faced. We offer the reminder that this struggle is our very heritage.

We will not be erased.

Happy Pride. Don't let anyone take it from you. ✊
