Maybe it’s me, but this reminds me of Biden in front of the fireplace with Trump, for some reason. Dude, if you really believed, in your heart, that he’s a dictator, you wouldn’t only be writing a strongly worded letter.

The words he’s using matter. He’s prepping the messaging.

Also document. Because one day this will also pass.

One big mistake tends to be to send local troops. Asking people to point a gun at their neighbors is a big ask. Unfortunately, military personnel seem to wait until the last possible minute, seemingly hoping someone will come to their senses.

In most situations like this that I’ve read about, that is a turning point. When troops refuse en masse or leadership refuses.
comment in response to post
My hope rn is that military leadership will publicly refuse.

The Nazis used the Norwegian state against the population. A lot of the people who oppressed the population during the occupation were Norwegian.

I can’t imagine how a professional soldier can find an internal justification for going to war against their own population. Maybe they will send inexperienced troops.
comment in response to post
Considering the level of resistance and how popular this is… they don’t need that many people. They need to scare the population.

My absolute best case scenario rn is that the military publicly refuses to obey. My second is that they refuse privately. There are a bunch of ways this can play out and none of them are good.

The thing is, I think the US military is more afraid of a military coup than they are of losing their actual country.

ā€œWhere the fuck is Karen Bass?…We’re supposed to be a sanctuary city? What a joke! Karen Bass, why aren’t you here?ā€

The absolute spineless state government is a massive disappointment.

My apologies. Old governor. Ferguson. "We welcome collaboration with National Guard forces when warranted, but only with our permission," Ferguson said. "We cannot have armed forces come into our state to enforce policies that are against our core values."

What did he do? Did I miss something?

And federalizing NG under section 10 for the purpose of suppressing riots is explicitly prohibited by the Posse Comitatus Act. All Newsom has to do is correctly state that the federal order is illegal, and order NG to stand down in writing.

Mayor Bass confirms on Twitter no LA Guard deployment yet -- despite which, Trump is already on "Truth Social" already thanking them for a "job well done".
comment in response to post
So is he challenging it? Or is he just going to cry about it on twitter? Has he told the National Guard to stand down?

Context of this is that paying for trademarking is expensive and feels like a massive grift for no reason. So I finally got my money’s worth. (Though I still sort of feel this is partly my fault. But also Twitter for allowing this BS)

I hope there are some moral people left with an actual backbone.

Boom! Trademark finally paid off.
