In response to Trump deploying the National Guard, California Democrats are using social media to bring the temperature down – saying "there is no emergency" but Trump is trying to "escalate the situation." @governor.ca.gov: "They want a spectacle" so "don't give them one"

Beware of violent infiltrators ("Proud Boys", "Three-Percenters", "Oath Keepers", etc.) amidst peaceful protestors. They want a casus belli.

The Obama administration deported over 3.16 million people. Biden’s passed 4.44 million. Not once did either need troops in the streets to do it. That’s all you need to know about what’s happening.

The MAGA movement’s celebration of its own ignorance and mediocrity is many things. But the impulses on which it thrives are not new to humanity. The question is whether enough of us can do enough to demand more. And I still believe we can.

Two narcissistic sociopaths like Trump and Musk might put on airs that they're still friends, but that's a contrivance borne of convenience and pressure. Truth is, neither will ever forgive or forget the narcissistic injury of the past day. They're wired not to, and that wiring defines them both.
