So, according to MAGA, setting a parked car on fire warrants the National Guard, but erecting a pop-up gallows with the VP’s name on it does not. Do I have that about right?

This is a consistent theme since yesterday from people on the ground in Paramount. Yes, there are crowds, there are protesters. But they are PEACEFUL. ICE began firing tear gas, flash bangs and smoke bombs once they saw people who happened to be there start filming.

What we’re seeing in L.A. isn’t an insurrection—so why federalize the National Guard? Why the threat of using the U.S. military against civilians? We’re not there yet—but we’re closer than we think. Watch this Project 2025 reminder until the end. Then view everything happening through that lens.

We are about to enter into a propaganda war against the Right. Over next few weeks, RW propagandists will flood media with stories of mayhem & destruction to frame public opinion to paint Dems as the enemy. But we must remember their history of lies #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue
