"When conservatives destroy these public goods, it doesn’t necessarily lead to a Democratic backlash at the ballot box, and they see this as a long-term investment in a more ignorant population reliant on sources of information they can control — a docile population that can be easily manipulated."

Military analyst Max Boot warned that Pete Hegseth is the wrong choice to oversee the military after Trump’s unnecessary use of the National Guard. Hegseth’s eagerness to send in Marines from Camp Pendleton over protests—not an insurrection—should alarm everyone. www.rawstory.com/hegseth-la-p...

What are these “very serious consequences’?

I don’t live in Los Angeles but I’m getting signs ready to go protest in my little red town of trump supporters!! Solidarity!!!

This is supposed to be a 1st Amendment right. ICE is going to escalate this.

Absolutely correct…I’ve been saying it since the parade was announced!!! Trump has a ‘BIG UGLY GOVERNMENT”…BUG…

The Trump administration is sending 2,000 National Guard troops to L.A. after two days of isolated clashes between federal immigration agents and protesters. Many questions remain unanswered, but here is what we know:

“For the federal government to take over the California National Guard... to put down protests is truly chilling,” said Erwin Chemerinsky, one of the nation’s leading constitutional law scholars. “It is using the military domestically to stop dissent.”

4½ months in and they’re already at “After protests over our masked agents shoving people into vans and militarized raids at Home Depots, courthouses, restaurants, and middle schools, we’re putting troops in the streets over the objections of cops and the Governor”. Not much room left to escalate.

Trump incited attacks against law enforcement. He then pardoned the attackers. Now he says he won’t tolerate attacks against law enforcement. But what he means is he feels very comfortable using force against those who disagree with him. In fact few ideas are more core to his presidency. Thugocracy.

Scream it. Yell it from the roof tops!! June 14th will be a show of force by the Trump regime…that Americans are PAYING for about +/- 50m…first estimates were 90m

Homeowners not Hedge Funds This is a major contributor to America's housing crisis.

No cap. Say it. Scream it. America keep stating the obvious because there are some in the back that can’t hear it!!! Trump regime has followed the manifesto Project 2025…to the letter!!!!

Authoritarianism doesn’t care about truth. They even lie when they say they are for truth, it’s like a scammer telling you to “Trust Them”.

Today, we find out if we live in a constitutional republic.

My statement on the arrest of California SEIU President David Huerta.

Every being seeks fun

Imagine that. www.npr.org/2025/06/02/n...

This is part of Trump regime’s plan.

This is really happening.

All part of Trump’s plan. This is the weird part, according to Brennan Center for Justice…the President can’t declare ‘Marshall Law’…hmm www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res... www.bbc.com/news/article...

The situation in Los Angeles is about to plunge us into a national emergency, except the people that normally solve national emergencies are the ones creating it.

Funny how ICE who is so allegedly fighting undocumented gang members has only managed to round up normal working class people, traumatize children, and fight US citizens in the streets.

Kristi Noem in Feb 2024: If Biden federalizes the National Guard [to handle border issues], we’ve got a war on our hands.”l Kristi Noem in 2025 as DHS Secretary: …federalizing the National Guard.
