We were very careful not to blame every German who fought in WW2 for the actions of their leaders. But you'll notice that the Germans were also very careful not to name any post-WW2 Army bases Fort Goering or Fort Himmler, for very good reasons.

I cannot stop watching this clip of a uniformed officer raising a weapon and firing directly towards reporter Lauren Tomasi and crew live on the air. I don’t give a shit if it’s a non-lethal projectile or not; JOURNALISTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO THEIR JOBS IN SAFETY.

Trump wants a confrontation, wants to see the situation erupt. No American president should behave like this. No kings.

Trump’s federalization of the CA National Guard under 10 USC § 12406 is illegal. The law requires that orders be issued “through the Governors of the States.” Gov Gavin Newsom has not issued the orders. Guard troops in LA are following unlawful orders. law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10…
