Trump is out of control as now he’s bringing in 700 marines to supposedly “support” the national guard in a slap in the face of the mayor of LA & their own police. If I was a cop in LA I’d be pissed. He’s abusing his power and needs to be stopped now.

immigrants in L.A go on strike, L.A will SHUT DOWN. L.A shuts down - the ports, the factories, the food processing, the building, the creative industries- California shuts down. California shuts down, the U.S economy grinds to a halt. SO MUCH POWER is in the hands of the immigrant community of L.A.

From a week and a half ago: “As of Monday, the model shows, about 96,000 adults and 200,000 children have died because of the administration’s cutbacks to funding for aid groups and support organizations. The overall death count grows by 103 people an hour.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

We’re gonna see a lot of state power that is supposed to be deployed against Black people and white people who ally with Black people be deployed with very few negroes in sight and I am, I confess, genuinely curious what that does to American politics.

Something that I think is becoming a consistent of this administration is that they don't understand that resources, personnel, etc. are limited. It's the shock and awe strategy from earlier, where now their DOJ is completely bogged down and morale is shit because they're getting sued everywhere

Just want to shout out the reporters and photojournalists of the @latimes.com. They have a shitty owner, and as a result there are far fewer of them than a few years before, but on this story, as with the fires, they are giving it their all.

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.

Calling in either the police or the military to back up ICE is weird because ICE is mostly staffed with guys who were (correctly) rejected by both the police and the military.

Bernie Sanders: "We have a president who is moving this country rapidly toward authoritarianism...to a large degree the future of this country rests with a small number of Republicans in the House & Senate who know better, who do know what the Constitution is about, and it's high time they stood up"

Deploying the National Guard—over the objections of state leaders and local law enforcement—is a dangerous escalation. This isn’t about enforcing law and order, it’s about seizing power and control. Americans won’t tolerate this slide into authoritarianism.
