Senator Padilla was assaulted, handcuffed and removed violently from Krusti Noem's presser in LA for trying to question her remark that the military is here to stay in LA, to replace the current mayor and potentially the current governor. LA is an occupied city, and we can expect martial law soon.

Hegseth hasn't issued official deployment orders, so the 4,000 National Guard troops aren't even getting paid. No per diem, nothing. They arrived in LA in uniform and were issued gear and weapons there. The Marines are not happy about this mission either. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

FYI... "The woman said of the “refugees”: “They were understanding that they would be arriving here for complete assistance. People thought they would be arriving at a house, a job, medical insurance, and other things. It isn’t that way at all." www.thesouthafrican.com/lifestyle/af...

He's just getting started. Everyone needs to protest. Please protest peacefully. Don't give any reason to declare martial law.

RFK promised to keep the CDC's vaccination board. This week, he removed all members to restore "public trust in vaccines." You know who actually boosts public trust? The very doctors and experts he's firing. Kennedy’s leadership over health care policy is more dangerous by the day.

Mayor Bass and her LAPD are trying to show Trump they're big enough assholes to shut protests down without federalized assholes' help. They're just haggling over who's gonna get to brutalize the kids. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

ICE isn't grabbing drug dealers, violent criminals, they're going to workplaces, day labor queues. They're going after workers. They're taking children out of schools, families from their homes, people here legally from immigration hearings.

He’s disappearing innocent people off of our streets and ordering the military onto our streets. He does not give a damn about the rule of law. He is the very tyrant our founding generation rose up against 249 yrs ago. It’s time for the American people to rise up again.

If Newsom and Bass mean what they're saying, they'll put their police between the protestors and the National Guard.

A big fuck you to all the well insulated pundits who kept saying it's not a constitutional crisis and are sending me hair on fire texts and emails now asking for money instead of thanking me, us, for telling them yes it fucking is.

When Stalin turned the Soviet home guard on the people, he always deployed the home guard from a different republic, to prevent the possible hesitation of killing their friends, neighbors and family.
