    Well, looks like the California National Guard is being activated and Stephen Miller posted this:

    [​IMG]

    If you didn't know, that word use is intentional. They think they can invoke the Insurrection Act, an 1807 law that allows the president to call in the military or national guard to address any insurrection that makes it difficult to enforce federal laws. It was amended after the Civil War in response to fears that Confederate states would still cause trouble. It was amended a second time shortly thereafter to include a section about enforcing the 14th Amendment in the face of Ku Klux Klan violence against Black Americans. Now, it will be used against people protesting their government's illegal and unconstitutional (regardless of what the SC says) actions. The President and his policies and his followers are not the state.

    The only thing this administration knows and wants is escalation in pursuit of violence and power. No accident this is happening in LA.

    Prove it. You think folks going to Home Depot to pick up some grass seed or flowers on a sunny Saturday were paid to protest? Please. How would they know ICE was even going to be there?

    How the country reacts to this is the most important moment in recent history.

    Here's the thing though. It's a massive gamble by the administration (Miller). If you order the military to shoot their own people and they don't, your government is cooked. If they pivot, you're probably dead. If they follow orders, the rest of us are done for and so is the United States.

    That's not a valid excuse for targeting non-criminals. They should be going after actual criminals, not teenagers, tourists, and mothers dropping kids at school. Legitimate police actions don't require masks to hide identity.

    Without transparency, we can't know the full scope right now. But documented cases show masked agents conducting mass roundups and deporting people to dangerous places like South Sudan where they face torture. These are the tactics we're seeing - focus on vulnerable populations rather than actual threats.

    History shows us how dangerous this gets when a population becomes a scapegoat for past grievances. Germany used economic hardship and humiliation from WWI to justify targeting vulnerable groups. The tactics started with mass roundups of "undesirables" - and people supported it because they wanted revenge for their suffering.

    We're seeing similar patterns: using past policy failures to justify targeting a vulnerable population with increasingly extreme enforcement. The question is whether we'll recognize these warning signs before it's too late.

    Come on man, you are asking a guy who believes propaganda and lies to show you facts? He eats that Twitter stuff up for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. He shares a lot of stupid posts with no real facts that he reads on his Twitter.

    The guy he shared a post from is the same Trump pundit who said back before the election that the left is smearing Trump by saying he's a dictator who's going to turn the military on them. Hmmm, that aged well. He's the same creep who posted that women turn communist in college and men turn communist when they marry one. The same creep that posed a comment after Kyle Rittenhouse was arrested in Kenosha that they might need him on Election Day.

    Last, but not least, Commodore is the poster child for someone who believes all the conspiracy theories and lies spewed by MAGA, Trump, and far right media posters. The ironic part of Trump's Make America Healthy Again saying is that the guy himself is psychotic. Trump pulls his cult followers deeper into losing their grip from reality by maliciously distorting reality and facts. That's not making anyone mentally healthy, that's for sure.

    If the LAPD is creating distance and supporting protesters, you know it's bad.

    Also, a federalized national guard means they are now part of the regular military and cannot be deployed on US ground--unless the Insurrection Act is invoked.

    Only to Trump and a majority of MAGA. Trump loves violence and insurrections if the ones doing the harm are Trump supporters. Plenty of his supporters feel the same way. Pardons for Trumpers, my brown shirts will be protected under my authoritarian mindset. Now you have the far right hate group Proud Boys suing the US government for $100 million over Jan 6th prosecutions. Imagine that. A hate group who threatened to hang and kill our Vice President and others, while planning, coordinating and leading the attack, all with Trump's blessing.

    Braindead. Your kind will never ever win another election in my lifetime. If you are seeing all these lawless ****ks waiving their foreign flags and being ultra violent and spitting at our LEOs and our troops and you’re making excuses for their behaviors, you are a loser and a traitor to our country.
