What we’re seeing in L.A. isn’t an insurrection—so why federalize the National Guard? Why the threat of using the U.S. military against civilians? We’re not there yet—but we’re closer than we think. Watch this Project 2025 reminder until the end. Then view everything happening through that lens.

Hey everyone, you want to know a fun factoid? Almost all of the federal agents currently in LA aren’t local, which means they’re staying at a hotel somewhere. Hotels have fire alarms. Wanna know another fun fact? If protests start popping off in other states, they can’t be everywhere at once.

Snatched in plain sight. Congress, where are you on this? Plainclothes. No identification. Unmarked cars with everyday plates. Anyone can throw on regular clothes, flash a fake badge, and claim to be “ICE.” A reckless operation and dangerous. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov
