This stuff doesn’t look very protect-and-serve-y

Sen. Rev. Raphael Warnock on Trump deploying troops to Los Angeles: “He is using the symbolism and the uniforms of our service members in a campaign to do what he's been doing for 10 years, and that is to convince us that we are at war with one another.”

Met an active duty member of the military yesterday who filed conscientious objector paperwork in response to deployment of military on U.S. soil. Was told multiple Army have filed, unknown quantities in other branches.

Good morning everyone! What fresh hell awaits this battered country today.

Who else isn't watching the ridiculous and wasteful parade on June 14?
