There was reporting that the other week Stephen Miller went ape on Tom Homan for weak numbers, and now we have a panicked large ICE mobilization in Miller's childhood SoCal... seems pretty A-B.

People often stop me in the street (never happened) and ask: “What do people like on Bluesky?” “Mountains and flowers,” comes my reply. Mt. Fuji with a sprinkle of flowers for #stunday. ❤️ ✌🏽 #photography #nature #art #eastcoastkin #stormhour #photohour #fuji #japan #flowers #bloomscrolling #scape

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

Here’s @RepTimBurchett predictably downplaying Musk’s saying Trump is in the Epstein files. (Epstein himself said Trump was his best friend for 10 years) One good way to prove it would be to release them — But Tim would deny it even if it was there in Black and white.

I don’t think people should engage in violence and vandalism and I don’t think federal agents should provoke people to engage in violence and vandalism. Too many law enforcement officers sworn to protect and serve now look and act like they are in Fallujah.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

With Musk gone, it’s time to start irritating Trump with “Stephen Miller is the person actually running the country.” Miller has survived longer than anyone in Trump’s orbit, so he’s clearly learned how to stroke Trump’s ego. But it can’t hurt to try. It also appears to be true. Terrifyingly so.

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

It is all a distraction AND it's all part of the plan to create chaos and right-wing authoritarian rule.

I truly believe part of the reason this is happening in LA right now is because they want to scare us into not protesting for no Kings day. DT is actually worried he’s gonna lose the news cycle so he wants to make sure everyone is too scared. 1/2

Trump will distract from the chaos by adding more chaos until there is nothing but chaos. MAGA is drunk with power, arrogance, and incompetence right now. They really are itching for a massive civil war and fascist crackdown, but they haven't gamed this out properly. Their own base will turn.

This is the cycle: raid, escalate, criminalize the response, send in troops. ICE raids are not neutral, they’re psychological warfare on communities, and now they’re using military backup. This isn’t enforcement. It’s state-sponsored intimidation.

Whatever happens in Los Angeles tonight is the playbook they’re going to deploy on blue districts across the country. And we warned people for months leading up to the election about exactly this.

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

Earlier, federal police in DTLA shot me in the finger with a pepper ball, and I got hit multiple times in the back w/ "less-lethal" rounds. Looks like my backpack saved me from getting hit in the back a few more times. I'm currently resting up at home.

Veteran NFL WR Chris Conley, who most recently played for the 49ers, has decided to retire after 10 seasons to follow his dream, his agent, Jonathan Perzley. Conley is heading to film school back at UGA to pursue dreams of being a filmmaker. So cool. 🎥.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle. Don't give them one. Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

Stephen Miller is fulfilling his high school wet dream of terrorizing all the Brown people in Los Angeles. My daughter's friends who went to SaMo High with him said he used to seethe while the morning announcements were repeated in Spanish. Hell, they did that when I went there. (Mesozoic age.)

Kat just said "Just because Stephen Miller wants to hit his quota of brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't make this okay" about the LA protests on MSNBC. I wish I knew how to clip these things.

If this keeps up, one of these ICE agents or National Guard members is inevitably going to kill an unarmed person on camera. All it takes is a spark. I know that's what Trump, Miller, Hegseth and MAGA want, but curious if the big money behind the GOP has thought this through...

Bad shit happens when the military comes into to a volatile situation. This reminds me of a story from the 1992 riots in Los Angeles, to which some Marines deployed. I knew one of them and he told this story I also saw elsewhere — absent his telling it I would have assumed it was apocryphal. /1
