Precisely

SHARE this as a reminder to EVERY member of our military: “We don't take an oath to a King. We don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator” “We take an oath to the Constitution." #FreedomToDissent

I look forward to Stephen Miller being tried for his crimes against humanity--along with Tom Homan and Kristi Noem--and receiving the most severe penalties allowed by law.

The situation in Los Angeles looks so bad Oklahoma has already banned it from being taught in schools.

ABC News can’t fire California Gov. Gavin Newsom for telling the truth about Stephen Miller.

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence. It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

I just called Congressman Sam Graves‘s office to ask about highway funding and the young man told me I didn’t know understand which district I live in and then hung up on me. Here’s Sam’s Kansas City number if you have any questions about highway funding: 816.792.3976

He stood in front of our troops today and gave a mean spirited, partisan speech. He stood in front of our troops today and attacked Americans by name. He stood in front of our troops today and goaded them into booing their fellow Americans. Never become desensitized to this.

Fierce❤️

Trump said he would invoke the Insurrection Act if he determined there was an insurrection under way in LA. This a map of Los Angeles County. The protests are all within this little red circle, and so calm the military just standing around. The only insurrection is Trump.

There’s obviously a lot going on right now, but the Speaker of the House calling for the Governor of California to be tortured seems like it should be a pretty big story.

More scenes from the “big insurrection” in Los Angeles

Fucking evil

Please repost:

Semper Fi has lost the faith. Shame on Marines engaged in thuggery.

If the objective was really apprehending people without legal authority to be in the country, ICE would never have to leave Mar-a-Lago.

If you agree, please share!

The U.S. Constitution and longstanding federal law strictly limit the use of the military to police civilians. Under the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, active-duty military forces are prohibited from engaging in domestic law enforcement unless explicitly authorized by Congress or the Constitution.

Mr. Authoritarian President, why weren’t you as interested in upholding “very strong law and order” during the insurrection on the Nation’s Capital as you are now in LA? Was your inaction then a result of your having incited the insurrection? #WeMustImpeachTrump!

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.)

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process. This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

The Trump administration has violated the Constitution and escalated a situation that never needed to happen all from the so-called party of states’ rights.

I think we’ve found the source of the violence

When President Johnson activated the Nat'l Guard in Alabama in 1965 over Gov. Wallace's objection he did it to protect protesters advocating for voting rights for Black people who had previously met violence at the hands of state troopers. Very different situation.

"I voted for lawless, anonymous, masked, and unchecked police" is one hell of a jump from "eggs cost too much."

The LAPD whenever they think no one can see

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.

"In our federal system, the National Gov. possesses only limited powers; the States and the people retain the remainder. The States have broad authority to enact legislation for the public good—what we have often called a 'police power.' The Fed. Gov., by contrast, has no such authority."-SCOTUS '14

Terry Moran revealed the truth about Stephen Miller and those with eyes and ears know it.

Stephen Miller Is an Immigration Hypocrite. I Know Because I’m His Uncle. If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out. (2018) www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

THIS!

Warning: ICE is planning 30 days of immigration raids across Los Angeles County. If you or someone you know may be impacted, now is the time to set up a support system, identify a safe place, and stay alert.

LOS ANGELES: Stay off the streets tonight. Stay home. Stay safe. Tom Homan says the National Guard might be deployed — and I’m telling you, he wants violence. They’re baiting us to react so they can escalate. Rule #1: Never protest at night. That’s when the worst happens—under cover of darkness.

Love this idea!

Yep

One apparent reason why GOP legislators are getting cold feet about proof of citizenship laws for voter registration: They’re worried about disenfranchising their own voters, advocates say. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487

Your safety is the top priority. Peaceful protesters have already been harmed for doing nothing. The story they’re selling isn’t legit. Please film everything, document everything.

There is no such thing as “underage women.” Period. They are called children.
