As someone who lives in Los Angeles, don’t let social or mainstream media gaslight you into thinking there’s a violent uprising taking place here. The Trump administration is trying to punish this state and this city. He’s also setting a precedent to unleash troops on Democratic cities.

In the last 20 or so minutes I’ve seen LAPD officers shove women to the ground without provocation, rip a sign out of a man’s hand and then swing a baton into his leg and raise a less-lethal launcher to aim directly at a protester (which I’m 99% is a major policy violation.)

Just a reminder that Kash raised money for January 6 rioters, including co-producing a benefit single in which incarcerated rioters sing the national anthem while Trump recites the pledge of allegiance.

And the "thin blue line" phrase was always stupid to me even when i was an officer. If police are public servants then we should want that line to be thick! Not thin. Its a divisive phrase that promotes an us vs them mentality. Effective policing is reinforced with strong COMMUNITY ties.

BREAKING: ABC News says senior national correspondent Terry Moran has been suspended “pending further evaluation” over a post calling Stephen Miller a “world-class hater.” This comes less than two hours after the White House called on ABC to punish the journalist for expressing his views.

The National Guard arrived in LA. NOTE: If Trump can override California’s governor, he can override yours too. This is a trial run…

This right here is pure unadulterated hypocrisy. This is the GOP way. The original post is still up, but I took a screenshot just in case the puppy killer decides to delete it. #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

If Pres Obama federalized the National Guard of a Red state and sent them to put down a Tea Party protest, the right would've went ballistic--literally. But when Trump does the same they cheer. Please understand that MAGA is an anti-democratic movement that wants Trump to be a tyrant.

They tear-gassed a woman peacefully waving an American flag. Let that sink in. This isn’t freedom. It’s intimidation, and it’s happening right here in America. We must stand up and stop this, but not at night. That’s when the violence escalates and militarized police act with impunity.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

Today: Tanks are being moved en masse into DC. Trump is deploying a state national guard over a governor’s objection to police protests. Trump threatened a major donor with “severe consequences” if they support his political opponents. If you’re still wondering what time it is, read this again
