You know who did loot? The Jan 6 rioters

“Show up. Speak out. Refuse to be cowed. This isn’t just about immigrants, or ICE, NYC, or California. This is about whether we’re going to let a wannabe dictator turn the greatest protest experiment in history—America—into a cautionary tale.” MeidasTouch +, today.

‘This isn’t “tough on crime.” This is political theater, starring soldiers in camo and directed by a man who knows deep down that his grasp on power relies on suppressing yours.’ www.meidasplus.com/p/constituti...

2,000 National Guardsmen in L.A.? Trump isn’t sending aid...he’s sending a message: compliance at gunpoint. Deploying soldiers to our own streets like enemies of the state? This isn’t leadership. It’s authoritarian theater. And we should be furious.

Dictator criminal trump's manufactured fear policies in action..... apnews.com/article/immi...  National Guard troops ordered to Los Angeles by Trump find quiet streets and few protests

My dad, who has lived under a dictatorship, knows one when he sees one. His first text this morning is that we are now officially in a dictatorship. It is all pretty grim.

Oh, honey . . . You can’t even get your wife back.

The National Guard has arrived in Los Angeles, but they were not requested by California. Both Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass made it clear that the state did not authorize or want federal troops deployed.

You all are incredible. You’ve been collecting videos, photos, and detailed notes piecing together exactly what happened. The narrative this administration tried to push? You dismantled it in hours.

ICE plans to conduct 30 days of immigration raids across Los Angeles County, Rep. Nanette Barragán (D-California) said, which would continue the sweeps that sparked protests in L.A. over the weekend.

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.

Thank you, America, for standing up against trump, against ICE, and against fascism. Everything in MSM is focused on Los Angeles. In truth, this is a national and international effort. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpLq...

We need to stand up for @terrymoranabc.bsky.social

Agree 💯.

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.

The tech world has built deep ties, independent of Elon Musk, to the White House and to federal agencies. Those alliances have laid the groundwork for changes in government policy that will benefit tech companies for years.

Fuck this guy. Guess the Hippocratic Oath also doesn’t matter anymore

In Manhattan, ICE officers were forced to flee inside 26 Federal Plaza

Rep. Newhouse and Rep. Baumgartner voted to rip away healthcare from thousands in Eastern Washington, including the 70% of kids on Apple Health in CD4. ❌ Fewer doctors ❌ Closed clinics and hospitals ❌ Higher costs for working families They sold us out.

I've been listening to the local police scanner and there have been 3 calls to group homes this morning. A staff was assaulted, a mental health crisis and a fire started. The people working front lines in these homes are lucky to make twenty bucks an hour.

He shouldn’t have taken the post down. He’s a reporter. And he was reporting facts.

Love to the resisters in LA Thank you for standing up to the Gestapo Thank you

Earlier this evening, the Univision crew grabbed their gear and started running when federal police began shooting pepper balls at us. @lataco.bsky.social

Immigration enforcement also hits Chinatown

Thank you!! 💚✊ We asked you to record everything, photos, videos, all of it, and you showed up. You helped us capture the truth. So proud of every one of you. Tomorrow, there will be more of us. We love you all!

Let’s look at the facts: DHS claimed there were “about 1,000 rioters,” but Reuters couldn’t independently verify that number. Meanwhile, flash-bangs used against peaceful protesters ignited one of the fires captured in widely shared photos.

Of course the LA Times makes it look like a full on riot instead of showing that the mostly peaceful protesters were literally and constantly assaulted by ICE agents. The majority of fires that were started weren’t by the public but by ICE firing into the crowds and canisters starting fires. 🧵

Whenever law enforcement agents are given a quota of a specific number of people to arrest or detain, especially with the WH policy director screaming at their superiors to hit those target numbers, bad things are going to happen. Quotas always result in civil rights violations.

ICE crossed a line in LA

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.

The only way to ban a citizen from wearing a mask in a public place is for The Fuhrer to declare martial law.

Federal agents in Los Angeles unleash tear gas and flashbangs on protesters raging against migrant arrests by ICE, snagging 118 souls. The White House calls it law, it’s just a barbed-wire hug for the vulnerable, courtesy of the untouchables. #3E

The Los Angeles Police Department has stated that demonstrations in the city have remained peaceful. Let that sink in.

Greetings! I’m here on Alondra Boulevard in Paramount, CA. The pro-immigration protesters are still squaring off with police nearby. Even hours later, the air still noticeably hangs with residual chemical munitions. Ground littered with spent munitions.

I thought I would be safe if I positioned myself with all the cable news crews off to the side away from all of the protesters. But nope. I was wrong. The feds shot pepper balls at us, forcing us down Alameda Street with everyone else. @lataco.bsky.social

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

End this f***ing oligarchy.
