Just to recap, Trump has taken the extraordinary step of federalizing 2000 member of the California National Guard — over the objections of the state’s governor — in response to a protest that currently involves A FEW DOZEN PEOPLE AT A HOME DEPOT

These militarized actions by Miller and Trump could potentially result in an elite blunder: overreach in response to what is essentially a small protest against a mass deportation policy that isn't widely popular.

There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

Here’s the “Presidential Memorandum”: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential... There’s no Insurrection Act invocation; Trump is federalizing 2000 CA Nat’l Guard personnel only to “protect federal functions.” Without invoking the Insurrection Act, anything more would violate the Posse Comitatus Act.

Imagine a huge buffet table called America. It’s laden with dishes: pasta, quesadillas, curries, Korean barbecue, Chinese sweet and sour chicken, soul food… And Trump overturns the table, wastes the food, and places on it the only item on offer:

I was an immigration lawyer for about fifteen years. The people I met… the way they wanted to give their absolute best to this country, and then DID. Skills, ideas, beauty, culture… that’s what they bring. America is a nation of immigrants, and immigration is what made America.

So what exactly does Title 10 authorize him to do? Is there a limit on the number of troops, how long they can be commandeered, etc? And how the fuck do you stop it if he exceeds his authority under it?

We never had to worry about the U.S. military being used against our own country when Biden was president. But that’s exactly what’s happened under both Trump administrations.

Remember when Trump did this on J6 at the Capitol? No, because he didn’t.

When will Americans realize this is not about illegal immigration, but an attempt to make Americans hate one another. If they wanted to get rid of “illegals” all they have to do is e-verify. Make it a felony to hire someone without proof. They won’t. That would collapse our economy.

We are now at the moment when the president is using military force against the American people in order to squash protest and dissent. And the violence and chaos is the point, in order to justify more of it.

The crackdowns on civilians and the threat of the national guard being sent to LA should be the most important story right now-- not the Trump/Musk feud or whatever the f**k that was. People are being terrorized all over the country. News outlets need to get it together.

Observe that the threat of deploying the National Guard on American soil, against American citizens, is being used by Vance as a political cudgel.

JD Vance now wants to use the chaos ICE is causing in Los Angeles as pretext to pressure politicians to pass the Republican budget bill that will saddle Americans with trillions of dollars of debt, skyrocket the deficit, take away people’s healthcare, and give massive tax breaks to the wealthy.

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.

Tanks being moved into DC. National guard being mobilized in LA. Paramilitary thugs being unleashed across America. It's summer in America and fascism is in full bloom.

The deal, Pam… the social contract, is that law enforcement officers, paid (as, indeed, are you) by us, are present to PROTECT US from criminals. And nobody is a criminal on sight; only after it is proven that a person has broken the law may law enforcement officers approach us.

I will say, the general theory that Americans are not prepared for what removing every single undocumented immigrant would entail has somehow become the opposite; the administration did not think they would receive this kind of active resistance from the people themselves

“And if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.” Unless it’s January 6th of course, and you’re on Trump’s side. In that case, you get pardoned for violently laying hands on officers. This makes me so angry, and I feel so helpless.
