They are trying to intimidate us. Don’t let them. It’ll be even harder to resist later if we cede ground now. Every person, if able, needs to be out there marching this Saturday. None of us can afford to coast on the work of others. Citizenship now requires more than voting. Let’s do this, together.

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

America has never been broke. It’s just violently anti-poor. Troops in LA cost $134M — the price of 44 million school lunches. But sure, let’s keep pretending the issue is lazy parents and not a government that eats kids for breakfast.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

After campaigning on a claim that he would deport undocumented immigrants with a criminal record—a policy that has broad support—Trump is now increasingly arresting persons with no criminal record of any kind.

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

So it begins. Discussions are underway within the administration, and Pentagon, about deploying National Guard or active-duty troops to cities beyond Los Angeles. We’ll be sending updated guidance to all coalition members. Please follow every step, even if some sections seem irrelevant right now.

Every time I explain this, I can just see people’s whole view shift. It’s honestly just not something a non-biologist-adjacent person thinks much about. The message won’t move MAHAs but I wish it were easier to get out to the general public.

King Trump is now planning to destroy the lives of millions and millions of California children to get back at Gavin Newsom for his words. "Monstrous" does not _begin_ to touch the depravity of this.

Heads up: Trump just said he would invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 if necessary to deal with protests in Los Angeles.

Peacefully protesting is a right. It’s completely un-American and needlessly provocative for Trump to deploy the National Guard and Marines against Americans. These are unlawful orders.

You voted for lower groceries and taxes… you didn’t get either. But you do get military in your streets, infighting in the White House, exorbitant spending and manufactured chaos.

There are no orders for these troops, they are operating illegally and they don’t even know it. We need to educate them! Posse Comitatus Act prevents our military from acting in this capacity the only way troops can interact with civilians is if you invoke the Insurrection Act.

Healthcare for seniors is not waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is not waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon is waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens is waste, fraud, and abuse.

Instead of working tirelessly to take away our Medicare Medicaid and Social Security, shouldn’t Congress be investigating why the President gave a “big time drug addict” the keys to the US government?

Is it possible to have an investigation conducted into how many pardoned insurrectionists are now on the ICE payroll? Especially with them slated for a $42K bonus in the congressional bill sitting with the senate. A $42K bonus is ~15 years of performance bonuses for a standard DoD civil servant.

I saw an ad in my tiny rural paper. It was for a job with no experience required with a 30k sign on bonus. It was for ICE agents.
