The Administration is utterly lawless and should be removed

Per my post on Saturday below identifying the provision in 12406 providing for Governor's role.... Governor Newsom's (very well-lawyered) letter on Sunday now goes for it:

The one good thing about Trump is that he’s made clear most conservatives don’t believe in freedom, the constitution, the rule of law, democracy or any of the basic tenets of our way of life. They only care about white supremacy and naked greed.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Sending the National Guard into LA, sending masked thugs into US cities, sending tanks to parade through DC next weekend--they are all ominous signs about the kind of country our wannabe dictator is working towards. There's much worse to come. www.thedailybeast.com/donald-trump...

ICE is circling LA neighborhoods full of hard-working Latino families. Not gangs. Not fugitives. Families. They came for the American Dream. ICE came to burn it down.

"Non-lethal" regarding rubber bullets, etc. A British journalist is having emergency surgery on his leg in LA after being hit. Muscle was exposed. He was walking across the street. An Australian journalist was hit on live TV. She was standing in the street reporting, nowhere near anyone.

In itself it's not the biggest thing but Congress specifically passed a law requiring ICE to allow access to members of Congress because of Trump's antics in the first term. This isn't even norms. It's violating black letter statute law.

How very ironic that GOP Governors aren’t standing up for states’ rights here. I guess that only matters if you’re denying women or transgender people access to medical care. democraticgovernors.org/updates/stat...

Newsom: He needs to stand down. Donald Trump is inflaming these conditions. This is Donald. Trump's problem right now. And if he can’t solve it, we will.

In the last 20 or so minutes I’ve seen LAPD officers shove women to the ground without provocation, rip a sign out of a man’s hand and then swing a baton into his leg and raise a less-lethal launcher to aim directly at a protester (which I’m 99% is a major policy violation.)

Not the biggest point. But what are they even doing here? Where is this? They're battling over a highway? Even from the perspective of aggressive and even brutal crowd control this is not how you do it. The obvious point that basically they're just trying to gin up these confrontations.

I would say ABC should be ashamed of themselves but I spent enough to time in TV to know networks have no shame. What they have are shareholders & corporate owners. We have a POTUS who refers to a Governor as ‘Newscum’ and it gets accepted by news orgs but calling out evil isn’t.

It’s obvious but worth drawing out what raids of Home Depot’s of all places is about. It’s rounding up people who are really eager for work and for whom there is work, peoples whose labor is in demand. We know this but shows just how far it is from rounding up just the bad guys.

ABC suspended reporter Terry Moran for a now-deleted tweet calling Stephen Miller a “world class hater.” They said it violates their standards. Here’s a thought…maybe your standards should allow calling out white nationalism and hate when you see it.

Stephen Miller is hateful and his spiritual nourishment is hate. He hates freedom. It scares him.

As the LAPD is reporting, the protestors in LA are being peaceful. This is not a rebellion or an invasion. There is no legal basis, including under 10 U.S. Code § 12406, for Trump to take over California's National Guard. Trump is trying to cross the Rubicon and take this country into tyranny.
