Trump lights kerosene. Seeks fait accompli before Newsom can file CA’s lawsuit contesting improper/illegal NG federalization. But active duty troops can not be deployed against a governor and mayor’s opposition without invoking Insurrection Act.

Normally I would think it’s morally suspect to pray for someone to have a massive and lethal cardiovascular event, but I think there are exceptions.

Each time a protest is violently shut down, a university is defunded for political reasons, or a person is deported without a fair hearing, the foundation of our democracy cracks just a little bit more. We must all raise our voice in opposition before the damage is irreparable.

Watch this ICE officer casually raise their rubber-bullet gun to shoot an unassuming Australian journalist in the back from behind as she does a standup at the LA protests. Now consider again who the “lawbreaking terrorists” are in this situation. bsky.app/profile/dell...

Share this. It’s why the White House demanding ABC get rid of Terry Moran. Moran has been suspended. What Moran said is accurate and true. Make sure his post makes the rounds.

“If Paramount capitulates here, they will be eviscerating perhaps their most precious journalistic assets …not to mention their own reputation and shareholder value,” said @normeisen.bsky.social. “Beyond that, Paramount will be harming the First Amendment itself. They should not yield.”

1/ One of the things to understand about ABC suspending Terry Moran over this (factual!) tweet is that the network was the Columbia/Paul Weiss in media companies caving to Trump, when he sued over George Stephanopoulos saying Trump had been found liable for rape in the E Jean Carrol case.

I was off social media for a few yrs, but decided that it's time to come back after last night. I'm an asst. prof. at Uni of Houston Law Center and before that was an attorney at DoD OGC, where my portfolio included domestic military deployments. This continues to be a core part of my research.

They’re not behaving as if they’re in a four-year term. They’re behaving as if they’re in an everlasting dictatorship. Are we all clear on this?

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

We @lawfaremedia.org will hopefully publish something on this soon but fwiw the legal authority invoked is NOT the Insurrection Act — it’s 10 USC 12406, which is much more limited than an Insurrection Act invocation. (Reporters: Chris Mirasola is the expert to talk to about this)

1/ If accurate, this is almost certainly a conflict with the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement, including the National Guard if they are federalized.

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

NOT a career federal agent. They don't casually pull out their weapons while hopping in a getaway vehicle after snatching somebody off the street. He's also fat and sloppy looking. He's got citizen militia all over him.
