While I LOVE seeing rocks thrown at ICE vehicles - STOP DOING THAT SHIT! Do not give them the excuse they're dying for right now.

Yep. Trump hates California. He's targeting us as an example. He knows we'll resist and hopes we'll give him an excuse to impose martial law. Please, Californians, resist peacefully!

Are you OK with a real life Handmaid’s Tale in 2025? Cuz Trump just sent 1000 fully armed National Guardsmen into LA to attack protesters — claiming they are rioters. Fuck this!!!! Join us to defend our democracy before it’s too late!!!!!

Exactly. Don't stoke violence. It's what the Felon wants. He wants any excuse to declare martial law and suspend elections.

You know this escalation with sending 2,000 National Guard troops is exactly what Trump was hoping for. Incite violence. Blame the protestors.

Breaking: Warning! The Felon is bringing in the National Guard to Los Angeles. Don’t let them provoke you! They want a riot! Stay peaceful and calm. If you protest know that they want chaos and a bloodbath! That is how fascism works! HE WANTS A REASON TO IMPOSE MARTIAL LAW ON CALIFORNIA!

Nearby the confrontation between protesters and federal officials in paramount, CA. Several people got so gassed they collapsed into a small green area near a Chevron. I’ve seen people run choking out of their houses. Elderly people getting treatment for CS exposure.

Trump is so targeting California. He hates us. He wants to incite riots and violence so that he can invoke martial law and suspend elections. We have to resist peacefully. Otherwise we walk right into his trap. Resist, but don't do what he wants us to do.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

Still LA, ICE is gathered again to start another operation after tear gassing civilians for hours at Paramount. A massive ICE presence stands across the street from civilians. This is live right now.

Yes. My fear is that Trump is just looking for an excuse to declare martial law and suspend elections.
