So disturbing seeing images of the reserves in LA and yes he’ll start doing it where he can — his objective is capture the media as he prevails in his attempt to makes MAGA happy and people are going to get wounded and killed and imprisoned and TACO just want the tv images of his power.
"“In places where there is a true breakdown of the rule of law, such as the most dangerous neighborhoods in Chicago, the next president should use every power at his disposal to restore order. And, if necessary, that includes sending in the National Guard or the troops.”
A true breakdown in the rule of law??? Ok, asshole, send your troops to the White House!
Thats what I thought - if they just sit down & be still - the good trouble will bug the crap out of these idiots! I think the protests Saturday will be very very well organized and set up. These LA protests kind of happened!
Honestly, in the beginning, looking at those ICE agents just standing there doing nothing but irritating the heck out everyone - THATS what set it off. You could see it coming.
All protests being held in front of the National Guard troops have been nonviolent all day. The word that violence helps TACO appears to have gotten to the folks who were in the streets this weekend.
Now there are images of guys in masks and hoodies doing vandalism in SF and Fucks Noise is running with reports and film on this. 2,000 more CNG troops being called up and more cops coming into LA. Shit’s gonna get serious really fast with TACO pulling the strings, hoping for some pretext to go full tilt martial law on blue states that defy him and cheered on by the GOP. Fort Sumter 2.0 2025 style?
ABC National news just broadcast at 5 PM Pacific Trump has ordered 700 U.S. Marines to Los Angeles.
Governor Newsom through the our capable CA Attorney General, ROB BONTA has filed a lawsuit against the Wreck Gang to stop the National Guard deployment abuse.
I have not seen CA AG Bonta's case complaint as filed but, I recommend skipping a "TRO" as a waste of time & go straight to a PERMANENT injunction to halt the stream of autocratic. "orders".
"Roughly 500 Marines based out of the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in California have been mobilized to respond to the protests in Los Angeles, according to three people familiar with the matter, and will join the National Guard troops"
TACO isn’t going to be happy until he burns the whole country down and all of us with it. My fantasy is not more than three people showing up at his parade Saturday.
Times of San Diego (an independent source) reports “over 700” coming from Camp Pendleton. I sure hope those jar heads know about the Posse Cometatus Act. (Spelling?)
Posse Comitatus Act. It requires Congress to agree to call out the National Guard without the governor’s consent, and Trump has decided to ignore Congress with the High School Putz whispering into his ear.
Someone needs to get these protests organized. Back in the civil rights era the Southern Christian Leadership Conference took the lead and trained protestors to not meet violence with violence and use passive means to obstruct the bad guys. We need that now. Even isolated instances of stupid violence can be magnified in this social media environment and poison a lot of minds out in the rest of the country. We need to put violence on hold.
There's no holy shit to it Kent. We're going to appear in front of them completely non-violently. Veterans like me, wearing identifiable "vet clothes" will be calling to them to be the Marines they are and to remember that Marines don't violate their oath, which is to the Constitution, not to a traitor.
LA and California along with any "blue" state. Miller, from Santa Monica, is the guy in charge. Noem cares about her hair extensions, and Homan is a buffoonish villain. Still, the damage is real. Thank you for standing up LA and California. Like Mr. Hubble has said, the demonstrations and opposition must grow. Frankly, the felon in chief wants to distract from these Epstein images.
Deflect from that, and the law cases he's about to lose big time, and the declaration his tariffs are illegal, and the fact his Big Ugly Bill is failing in the Senate. LOSER LOSER LOSER. DONNIE BOY'S A LOSER!!

Keep the faith!
The protest in LA today
was a beautiful example
of how it's done.
Thousands marching
peacefully with their
signs.
Do Not give Trump the
pretext he wants to
unleash he'll. Persist
peacefully. Not one step back.

If LA was so riot-stressed that the Guard had to be called, it wasn't serious enough to keep Trump from being ringside with Mike Tyson that night.
On 6/14 no movement, no commerce, just quiet shaming, one finger brushing over the other. I am ashamed of this government.
You are not alone!

If protestors don’t choose to sing or sit, the escalations will continue. Good trouble is essential…

Reports coming in say Marines are being deployed to LA…here we go…

Friday AfternoonLegal Developments:

Spoiler Alert: GRANTED.
And now I see on CNN:
"Roughly 500 Marines based out of the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in California have been mobilized to respond to the protests in Los Angeles, according to three people familiar with the matter, and will join the National Guard troops"
It's 700.
TACO isn’t going to be happy until he burns the whole country down and all of us with it. My fantasy is not more than three people showing up at his parade Saturday.
I sure do wish the forecast was for rain!
Torrential downpour, tornados, and maybe a hurricane.
Let us pray! Maybe less than 3!
Trump's really trying to turn this into a war!
Which is why we don’t give him what we wants.
I want the Marines there the next time Trump tries to enter a women's dressing room, and I want to see a flying takedown to maintain law and order.
That is what I saw on TV. 700! The bigger the better for the imbecile!
😩😡
Times of San Diego (an independent source) reports “over 700” coming from Camp Pendleton. I sure hope those jar heads know about the Posse Cometatus Act. (Spelling?)
Coming from a Pendelton unit that's out at Twentynine Palms.
Posse Comitatus Act. It requires Congress to agree to call out the National Guard without the governor’s consent, and Trump has decided to ignore Congress with the High School Putz whispering into his ear.
😣
A very cogent summary, Tom.
Someone needs to get these protests organized. Back in the civil rights era the Southern Christian Leadership Conference took the lead and trained protestors to not meet violence with violence and use passive means to obstruct the bad guys. We need that now. Even isolated instances of stupid violence can be magnified in this social media environment and poison a lot of minds out in the rest of the country. We need to put violence on hold.
Indivisible is doing this
Gary. They have
nationwide groups in all
states, even red states,
that are organized and a
protesting.
Thank you, TC. So senseless!
And now, he brings in the Marines. Holy shit!!!
There's no holy shit to it Kent. We're going to appear in front of them completely non-violently. Veterans like me, wearing identifiable "vet clothes" will be calling to them to be the Marines they are and to remember that Marines don't violate their oath, which is to the Constitution, not to a traitor.
I fucking hope so. If not, we're ALL doomed.
Short trip from Camp Pendleton.
They're coming in from Twentynine Palms, 140 miles away up on the high desert.
