Anyone saying, with any seriousness, that there is rioting in Los Angeles gets an immediate block. Trust me, if LA was rioting, you would know.

I feel like it’s time for everyone to rewatch Battlestar Galactica again — probably the most brilliant commentary on civil-military affairs ever buried in a sci-fi show (From one of my twitter BSG watches)👇

they're doing this because the Insurrection Act sounds cool and edgy but they can't actually justify using the Insurrection Act. it's a silly action by an insecure administration desperately to seem manly and powerful. it should be criticized relentlessly, but it should also be laughed at.

Cannot stress enough that this is a pitiful action by a weak, scared, pathetic group of insecure, wannabe authoritarians, and they should be mocked until the end of time for wanting to bring in the military over some people protesting them at a Home Depot.

It's bad era to be into gaming but also not a fan of Souls-like's or Rogue-like's 😂

We love LA Fuck ICE Be safe

There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

Note: this is a blanket declaration with no specific mention of Los Angeles. It simply states the National Guard are now assisting and protecting ICE anywhere at the President discretion for 60 Days. That’s a militarized state, my friends.

If you ever wonder why Americans don't fight back more A) we do, it's just not reported and B) We'll be murdered if we make too much fuss.

Sending 2,000 troops to Los Angeles is the same thing as sending a few dozen random people to a gulag in El Salvador, they're doing this because it's a thing they've always wanted to do, not because of any broader goal or coherent plan. Subordination of strategy to tactical planning.

President Trump's deployment of federalized National Guard troops is unnecessary, inflammatory, and an abuse of power. The Trump administration is putting people in LA in danger and undermines the democratic principle that the military should not police civilians. www.reuters.com/world/us/whi...

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

Just a note for those who wish to cozy up to Elon. Elon could have used Twitter to needle Trump about the situation in LA while aiding those on the ground by providing a place free of government interference to interact and distribute information. He did none of that.

BREAKING: please, everyone, turn on local news. there is NOTHING going on in LA. Its over, the protest broke up hours ago. Local news helicopters are trolling for trouble and there's none. Just some LAPD/LASD road blocks. If they 'send the Guard' now, its just because they really really want to.

Cover your face. Cover your tattoos. Black bloc up. The government WILL waste precious tax payer money to try and find you from these protests.

anyway vance is currently tweeting about how this is all part of the great replacement or something and foreign nationals are currently occupying los angeles and that's why we're deploying the guard

I'm trying not to worst-case-post but this sounds like he's preparing the public to make a case that lethal force by the military will be justified by whatever evil legal rationale they can drum up.

This movie is pure perfection idgaf.

Goddamn classic imo. So much fun.

The authorities have successfully achieved their goal of making protestors look cool as hell.

Me af

Since yesterday, immigration and other law enforcement have inflicted terror and chaos on residents of LA. The leader of California's largest union was among those arrested for protesting ICE's cruelty. Congress must hold President Trump accountable and stop him from terrorizing our communities.

Since yesterday, federal agents have raided multiple L.A. workplaces in the Fashion District, a Westlake Home Depot, and other locales. We call on our elected officials to uphold their commitment to all Angelenos, immigrants and non-immigrants alike.

Reporters @acatwithnews.bsky.social and @ryannemena.bsky.social were both just hit in the head with less lethals and tear gassed at the anti-ICE protests in Paramount, CA. Both seem to be mostly uninjured, if a little battered, checking in now. @adamrose.bsky.social

Mayor Karen Bass and 11 out of 15 councilmembers have issued statements condemning the ICE raids happening throughout LA today

We hear about how pro-immigrant side is extreme. There is literally nothing more extreme than this statement. Being willing to sacrifice the country’s foundations for an evil goal

I thought Republicans were all about "states rights?" 🤔

I swear the Trump administration is filled with the worst public speakers.

Ffs riots are not raging This is the same story they used to send troops to Santa Monica during BLM protests Reporters better nip this framing

I assure you, Google, I did not.

good GOOD (this whole thread is stunning)

Fuck ICE. Love you, Los Angeles.

"my brothers you think you're doing the right thing," one demonstrator says to police "you're not.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

I don’t want a single Democrat taking a single dollar or endorsement from the Nazi-saluting bruised car salesman, but Trump just outright saying he’ll go after you if you support anyone who opposes him.

folks I've been tear gassed something like 200 times and maced at least fifty or so times. once i was soaked in mace to my underwear. ignore any neat scientific tricks people give you for beating this stuff -Water for tear gas -sudecon wipes for mace -if no sudecon, wash mace with water

Los Angeles: if you get tear gas or see other people who have been and someone calling themselves a medic tries to use milk to wash their eyes out SLAP THAT MILK JUG OUT THEIR FUCKING HAND. MILK DOES NOT WASH OUT TEAR GAS. Just use bottled water please.

Timely reminder that the treatment for chemical weapons like tear gas and pepper spray is: 1) remove from active contamination (get them out of the cloud of teargas, remove outer layers of clothing if possible) 2) flush eyes with ONLY clean water. Wash skin and hair with water and soap.

As the sign says: keep left.

LA sheriff's department are declaring unlawful assembly, telling people to leave the area. There's been nothing happening for a while either. Just people standing around. Not really sure what the sheriff's dept is doing. ICE escaped already. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDnS...
