Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

I’m at the No Kings protest in downtown Syracuse, NY where thousands of people are lining both sides of a main street. Cars honk in support as they go by.

9th circuit panel w/ 2 Trump appointees enters an administrative stay -- i.e puts Breyer order on hold "pending further order" --and orders hearing for Tuesday. That means the state of play on the ground is that the National Guard is federalized.

Judge Breyer has blocked the Trump Admin from Deploying the National Guards to LA "…violating the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution." "He must therefore return control of the California National Guard to the Governor of the State of California forthwith." #SheShed

FINAL: Judge Breyer says he will issue an order "shortly, hopefully by today." My guess would be that he issues a TRO (perhaps a PI) invalidating the Title 10 federalization order for the National Guard but NOT for the deployment of Marines to Los Angeles. Gov't will immediately appeal to 9th Cir

🚨BREAKING: Sen. Alex Padilla was just arrested fighting for immigrant rights. When I asked what made him tick, he said: “I’m the son of a housekeeper and a short-order cook.” That’s not a mugshot moment. That’s a legacy. That’s courage. Please share his story. 💙

There’s obviously a lot going on right now, but the Speaker of the House calling for the Governor of California to be tortured seems like it should be a pretty big story.

“This could poll well with midterm swing voters in Ohio” I remark sagely as I watch a fourth grader get bundled into an unmarked van at recess by armed and masked agents of the state.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

If ICE was actually mass deporting criminals, we’d be hearing about shootouts, drug busts, and liberated human trafficking victims on a daily basis. In reality, they’re just a bunch of anonymous LARPing Nazis that get off on abducting nannies and line cooks who are trying to support their families.

LOS ANGELES: Stay off the streets tonight. Stay home. Stay safe. Tom Homan says the National Guard might be deployed — and I’m telling you, he wants violence. They’re baiting us to react so they can escalate. Rule #1: Never protest at night. That’s when the worst happens—under cover of darkness.
