Newson and the entire CA legislature needs to show up tomorrow morning in LA.

Quick question for civmil experts:
What power does a “Presidential Memorandum” have in the chain of command for National Guard &/or California National Guard?

Your thoughts, @gavinnewsom.bsky.social & @robbonta.bsky.social?

phoebe1313.bsky.social•22 days ago

Yes

"NATIONAL GUARD IS N-O-T NEEDED...
NO NEED TO CONFLATE AND
FURTHER TRAUMATIZE FAMILIES BY ice."
LA MAYOR BASS

trump IS DEFLECTING:
PEDOPHILIA WITH EPSTEIN
BIG UGLY BILL
ESCALATING ECONOMY PRICES
FAILED TARIFFS
ILLEGAL DOGE ACTIONS
MASSIVE UNEMPLOYMENT
COURT LOSSES
STOCK MARKET CONTINUED SPIRAL

Which side are the Guard on?
Decide.

Arm up, California.
Let the Guard decide if they want to kill fellow Americans.

dlheil.bsky.social•23 days ago

Escalate California.
Arm up.

The only ones rioting and causing unrest are the ICE Brownshirts

Trump hates Gavin
Trump hates California
Trump hates Everything

This was always Trump's and Miller's plan. Wonder how they'll react to the No Kings Day protest next week. They are desperate to declare martial law.

rolanddunbrack.bsky.social•23 days ago

It's not unrest. That's the regime's take.

fatlil6ringo.bsky.social•22 days ago

Will the gaurd(mostly locals) crack the skulls of their neighbors, friends, families?

We know cops will, for the time being.
But this is different
Members are thinking of the VA cuts, draft dodging, and the "suckers&losers" comments

Trump loves chaos and violence.

katesskatess.bsky.social•22 days ago

Unrest that frigging fascist started!

jadedreviewer.bsky.social•23 days ago

Yet the leaders of LA say the protests are peaceful and not an issue.. sounds like a trumped up issue.. pun intended

janedziendobry.bsky.social•23 days ago

#ICE & #DHS could EASILY have come in with ID & peacefully apprehended people into marked cars & taken them to be booked. The camo, the brutality, the anonymity is unnecessary. It is for SHOW. It is to intimidate. THEY WANT CHAOS. They are NOT preserving peace, they are DISRUPTING peace

I think you need to replace “reporter” with “propagandist” in your job description there. The Fourth Estate has fallen.

debe1477.bsky.social•23 days ago

Nothing can come good out of this.

winecave.bsky.social•22 days ago

To stop the "unrest", ICE just needs to leave.

gr8hitr.bsky.social•22 days ago

How long will it take for California to start discussing separation from the USA?

mir-scs.bsky.social•23 days ago

2000 guards to quell a few dozen people.

Trump is a bitchass wimp.

ac12345.bsky.social•23 days ago

I wouldn't call them "immigration enforcement operations." In the past few days, ICE has illegally grabbed people who are legal green card holders and three-year-old toddlers while they are following the law and appearing at immigration court. https://pelosi.house.gov/news/press-releases/pelosi-statement-reported-ice-arrests-san-francisco

Please do not cut the tire stems of ICE vehicles

trixie3400.bsky.social•23 days ago

There is no rioting or looting. Trump is intentionally provoking people.

irunamuk.bsky.social•23 days ago

Even the LA police are saying this is ridiculous

davehuntsman.bsky.social•23 days ago

Josh, has there EVER been an instance when the Feds forcibly deployed the National Guard to a city over the express objections of the Mayor and Governor?
