did you get your history from the Legends of King Arthur? or Harry Potter?

Is there some point where Democratic politicians actually pull out the LAPD and they're fully replaced by federal troops? Does Trump take control of the LAPD? Or do Democrats keep instructing the LAPD to assist federal troops even as Trump tries to arrest them?

Bannon is one source. Trump held even with his 2020 vote total but Harris fell 7m votes below Biden's in 2020, that signifies a base staying home.

ok but these are tiny fluctuations driven mainly by base turnout differentials. Aiming for low-info imbeciles is not only less productive than doubling down on your message to turn out your base, it causes our entire politics to be driven by appeals to low-info imbeciles. Harris was a case in point.

What we need is a party that argues for immigration. These numbers don't come from nowhere.

Dolores Huerta, a 95 year old labor organizer with deep roots going back even before the Delano Grape Strike in 1965, here in Boyle Heights speaking at a protest. She called the past several days of detainments throughout Los Angeles a “horrible assault.”

settler ethnostate - exactly what Trump, Vance, Homan, Miller and Noem are using ICE to bring about.

I'm not against immigration and of course many Angelenos are Indigenous. How is modern-day Los Angeles a supremacist, eliminationist ethnostate?
comment in response to

Obviously a supremacist settler ethnostate has no right to exist in that form, and as Zohran says, no state has the right to exist under an ethnic hierarchy. It isn't "hating Jews" to say all states must guarantee equal rights.

We’ve got a graphic now if you can help spread the word! Philly belongs to its people, not to these jackbooted fascists.

Newsom is posting California/LA law enforcement cooperation with ICE as reason not to use National Guard:
"LA authorities are able to access law enforcement assistance at a moment’s notice. We are in close coordination with the city and county, and there is currently no unmet need."

Wait until Trump wins and we have to rely on feeble blue state governors like Hochul to deal with invading red state National Guards rounding up immigrants and herding them into concentration camps

His next post isn't even that.

Would he enforce our Sanctuary City laws and block NYPD from assisting ICE?

We just need a #PurityPledge to make their path more costly than they think ours is.
I pledge to boycott and tear down any Dem in 2028—no matter the alternative—who makes any retreat from full trans rights, immigrants' rights, diversity, equity and inclusion, Palestine, or universal healthcare.

These states are generally populated by their indigenous ethnicities, not supremacist settlers.
