With the BET Awards happening in downtown LA, I was wondering who was going to say something first. Doechii really is that girl.

I'm a Senior Member of the House Intel Committee. I've worked in intelligence throughout my career.  
What's happening in LA isn't national security, and it's not making you safer.    Mass deportations don't enforce the law — they are breaking the law.

I never, ever want to hear another god damn word about state’s rights…

This! They were absolutely fine with the shit policies that led to this. They just didn't think the leopards would eat their own faces.

Vandalism is not violence. Yelling is not violence. Disruption is not violence. Firing “less-than-lethals” at close range is violence.

Sending the National Guard to Kent State in 1970 was, famously, the savvy solution that turned American sentiment in favor of the Vietnam War, and made Richard Nixon the beloved president that he remains today.

Really Cool how nobody wanted to take this shit seriously

i hope other blue city mayors are taking note of what's happening in LA and shoring up their plans on how to react / challenge when the same thing inevitably happens next

True story bro.

Fun side effect of the planned military parade. Whoops, not enough jackboots for LA.

Thinking a lot about this meme today.

Let’s look at the facts: DHS claimed there were “about 1,000 rioters,” but Reuters couldn’t independently verify that number. Meanwhile, flash-bangs used against peaceful protesters ignited one of the fires captured in widely shared photos.

I like America like I like my tea. No ICE.

I know there's a lot to think about, but this point shouldn't get lost. I remember rhetoric (lies) that the GOP position was about getting violent ppl out, not those lost in the "broken" immigration system. Recent events prove that false. We were right. It was always racism.

[email protected] should be showered with praise for this. The "smart" insider DC advice at the time was to abandon Abrego Garcia. But Van Hollen fought for his constituent and helped get him home. And it turns out fighting back rather than misreading polls was politically smart too.
