Putting their bodies on the line is pretty much all Dems can do, given minorities in the Congress, but it's powerful insofar as they're seen as the legitimate representatives of the people. These are YOUR representatives they're grabbing & shoving! These are YOUR representatives they're silencing!

Physically accosting and handcuffing a U.S. Senator who is advocating for his constituents at a public event is outrageous. The Trump Administration is violating the Constitution and can’t take any questions or criticism about their illegal actions.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

Stephen Miller represents everything vile about this administration and drawing more attention to him will (a) make it harder for the administration to pretend this isn't creepy white nationalism in action and (b) likely make Trump jealous to the point he shitcans him like Elon. Win-win.

Gavin Newsom called the National Guard deployment "unlawful." Good! If he believes the unit is still his to command, then he should order them to leave LA and return to their armory. Give the lawful order for them to stand down and dare the California Army National Guard to defy the governor.
