The Insurrection Act is sweeping. It’s a huge grant of power to the President. It is also very expressly for conditions that do not exist in California. And if you’re hypothetically the governor, you should be saying so.

the white house thinks brute force is, no pun intended, a trump card. they don’t anticipate pushback and they don’t know how to handle it with anything other than escalation. the issue is that each escalation is itself a gamble. if protesters refuse to back down, you’ve lost face. (1/?)

interesting to note that 400 protesters have monopolized all of LASD’s enforcement power because they tried to help ICE arrest half a dozen guys working at a Home Depot if you’re scoring on efficiency, the protesters are winning

These are crimes. They're committing crimes. And when people understandably protest the fact that they're committing crimes, they're shooting flashbangs at them.

I recently heard a high-profile pundit argue that the Trump movement cannot be Fascistic as -its supporters don't wear uniforms; -Trump dislikes foreign wars; -he hasn't tried to amend the Constitution. It's a dangerously complacent view, that misses the sheer gravity of the current situation. 🧵

Really good chance that the summer of 2020 ends up having been the training ground for the next round of massive civil unrest. Tens of thousands of Americans stood up and faced down armed agents of the state and took their best shots. That’s going to really change the dynamics moving forward.

As I said yesterday: We can no longer believe any numbers the Trump Administration gives us. 🚨 We must find a way to gather, organize, analyze and share data from local and state sources ... though R-dominated states may soon follow the Vought(P25)-Trump lead.

This is a recurring thing where the second a former appointee says something mildly critical, Trump goes on a tear about how incompetent & traitorous they are. It never seems to occur to him that he’s announcing he’s unfit for his job.

Bitch you're the only person talking about this shit! This is letting the other side dictate the debate! We've been beaten over the head with Alexander Hamilton quotes for a decade and yet party leadership still hasn't internalized the easiest thing: "Those who stand for nothing fall for anything."
