Part of what is happening here is that they are coming to realize that DHS/ICE cannot remove the 10m-15m people they want removed from the country, and they are not leaving, voluntarily. So they are going to Plan B - the military.

Each time a protest is violently shut down, a university is defunded for political reasons, or a person is deported without a fair hearing, the foundation of our democracy cracks just a little bit more. We must all raise our voice in opposition before the damage is irreparable.

Trump deploys U.S. military to the streets of a U.S. city--and threatens to do so elsewhere whenever he wants. And people ask whether he has crossed the Rubicon. Yes, he has. As he's been intending to do for a quite a while. @samsteindc.bsky.social and I discuss. youtu.be/slAY7oxOu-Y?...

This morning, President Trump deployed the National Guard into Los Angeles. Deploying federalized troops on the heels of these raids is a chaotic escalation.

🚨This is authoritarianism in action. The First Amendment offers the strongest protections for political speech precisely because it is most at risk of suppression. Many Americans died to defend this right—and that sacrifice is now being squandered to appease one man’s ego.

Important point here that I made earlier today on @velshimsnbc.bsky.social as well: Trump purports to nationalize the Guard with no geographic limits. Today it’s LA, tomorrow ???

Please allow me to tell you what ass-kissing Sunday show hosts won’t: There are no riots in LA.

The same people who supported the American flag being lowered to raise a MAGA one suddenly care about the optics of flags at protests.

“Motivated by love of country” nah Stephen Miller has been on the record as being motivated by hate since he was literally in high school.

What's more is that, for the most part, this wasn't even about Trump. It was about Stephen Miller, one of the most indefensible members of the Trump administration.

So, ABC News joins the ranks of media supplicants to the felon. Avoid all corporate media altogether is the only correct moral action today.

So the Sunday corporate blabfests again give MAGA Mike platform to spew lies. No one even asks him why the felon calls out the National Guard against Los Angeles protesters but NOT the J6 protestors who were violent & destructive of public property.

This is all a pretext. Everything they do is in furtherance of their authoritarian agenda.

Members of the California National Guard have arrived in Los Angeles — against the wishes of Gov. Gavin Newsom and L.A. Mayor Karen Bass, who are calling the Trump move inflammatory and unnecessary.
