Marine veterans are speaking out against the troop deployment in Los Angeles. Across the country, they’re taking down their American flags that have flown in front of their homes for years. Remember, we have friends everywhere.

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

Is anyone really that shocked to learn that NRA members didn’t really believe that “stand up to tyranny” stuff? And that the organization mainly exists to taunt victimized families and communities after mass shootings?

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

You all are incredible. You’ve been collecting videos, photos, and detailed notes piecing together exactly what happened. The narrative this administration tried to push? You dismantled it in hours.

Hey, Supposed Christians, Any city you live in should be a sanctuary city. The whole effin’ point of Jesus’ teachings was to love the poor, the sick, the hungry, the foreigner. You can’t celebrate or abide violence against the least of these and still try to claim you’re a Christian. Choose.

www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjg6Y9Dh/ THIS is how systemic racism was baked into medical care algorithms to enshrine worse medical care for Black patients. It’s not “woke,” it’s fact.

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.

L.A. is a Mexican-American city. The majority of the population is made up of racial and ethnic minorities. We are all happy living together and really do not want to see our friends, neighbors and families being terrorized by federal robo-cops. This is bullshit.

A few days ago I suggested that protesters do this very thing, among other naughty interventions. I now retract my previous posts and defer to Rob. Thank you Rob for clarification.

Deploying the military on U.S. soil as law enforcement against Americans was on page 555 of Project 2025. So don’t say “I didn’t vote for this,” because you did. This isn’t a response. This was always their plan.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.
