Shah: Recent events in Los Angeles have made it evident it's necessary now more than ever, for us to stand up against authoritarianism.. When troops are deployed to suppress dissent. History shows us that such actions only make the situation worse, not better.

Trump invoked emergency powers more times in his first 100 days than any other modern president has in that time. Experts worry it could lead to an upending of the constitutional balance of power.

Here’s the thing about the Trump Administration talking about violence: 1. They’re lying. No doubt there’s some but they are dramatically exaggerating. 2. They’re lying in order to justify escalating violence and violations of laws and rights. 3. Their goals are bigger than today. /1

In 2024, we warned of the darkness of a future Trump dictatorship. Jailing leaders of American cities, disappearing dissenters, and using military force to harm Americans. That future is on our doorstep. But we can stop it. Don't be afraid to exercise your power and tell Trump enough is enough.

The Purpose of Trump's Terror: What Trump Wants In LA Is Blood "The goal isn’t to scare off a few undocumented gardeners and housekeepers or terrify asylum-seeking mothers. It’s to normalize the idea that active-duty troops can be used on American streets against American citizens." bit.ly/4dYG8Ig

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

First, she is lying. It is a lie. No other word for it. Second, this is an assault not just on Padilla as a person, but on the Legislative Branch of government by the Executive Branch. Under the framework our Founders developed, he outranks her yet is treated like this. Let that sink in.

"If Trump is successful in LA, he will export his tactics everywhere. Trump doesn't only want to be authoritarian in the eyes of Angelinos. Autocrats aren’t in the business of imposing limits on their own power. He wants to be an autocrat everywhere. LA is where he’ll start but not where he’ll end."
