Was just about to post this. 
 

They are declaring war on America. 

 

Federalizing the NG is one thing but it's been done before under Eisenhower for Little Rock desegregation, 1967 Detroit riots, 1992 LA riots and probably some other cases. But bringing in the fucking Marines?  That's complete BS.

Receipts need to be kept. Any marine that acts against citizens of the US needs to be arrested and tried when Trump is deposed and Democrats take over the DOJ again. 

Same for ICE agents participating in unconstitutional and illegal raids/kidnappings against Americans. 

But of course Democrats won't want to anger the right so they'll do nothing just like they did nothing for 3 years after the insurrection. 

Dystopian totalitarianism is here. It has been more Huxley than Orwell so far, but if trump and his goons start attacking Americans with the military and national guard it can quickly change in a hurry. 

Trump doesn't want that. He can easily keep control if he's making sure the masses are placated and don't directly feel threatened. This type of stuff can only make his regime more fragile, especially in light of his war with Musk and his regime's extreme incompetence. 

I expect TACO to take hold. This is what they do, bluster up and talk tough then pull back and just keep talking tough without doing much of anything. They'll keep preying on the poor, uneducated, and disadvantaged but will steer clear of really pissing off and threatening the 80 percent of America. Attacking Americans with the military or guard will only make this place a powder keg for 300 million people with 400 million guns.

all of this is inevitable as one party views Americans in two shades. They will scratch and claw to get everything.

if you escalate they attack.

if you do nothing they attack at the margins as much as possible.

rinse and repeat. There is no way out of this. Congress is neutered, ICE seems to have hate-filled assholes running it, the military is lead by a for hire drunktard. 

what a time to be alive.

It's not even shades, anymore.  It's "us" and "other," and the line between the two is becoming increasingly dim.  Not even your voting record firmly makes you an "us."

turnip has made his call to the California national guard. The summer didn’t need much heat for shit to hit the oscillator.

Want to mingle with the good people to meet?

Great, the last 'Day of Defiance' made a real difference.

National strike is the only thing that will get their attention.

Well a national strike ain’t happening, so I’m going to continue to support the Rebellion in ways I can.

National strike would change things real fucking quick.

You think the college educated are going to risk losing their jobs on principle?

I'm skeptical.

My corporation would laugh as it fired everyone and hired all new college grads the next day.

Facts:
- Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass both publicly stated they did not request National Guard assistance.
- Under normal circumstances, National Guard deployment requires state approval unless the Insurrection Act is invoked, which Trump has not done.
- The Department of Homeland Security claimed “about 1,000 rioters” were involved. Reuters explicitly stated: “That number could not be independently verified.”
- No arrests, property damage, or injuries matched the scale of that claim in public records or independent media.
- LAPD and local sheriffs reported protests were largely peaceful, especially during the day before Trump escalation.
- Some tensions flared in Paramount and downtown LA, but no reports of organized looting or widespread property destruction emerged.
- Reporters on the ground, including from LAist, KPCC, and Reuters, reported being tear-gassed or pushed back despite clearly identifying themselves.
- Multiple journalists were caught on camera saying “We’re press!” as flash-bangs or tear gas were deployed nearby.
- Video footage and timeline analysis show a flash-bang grenade thrown into debris shortly before a car caught fire.
- No evidence has emerged that protesters intentionally started that fire.
- Video footage reviewed by The Guardian and Washington Post showed flash-bangs, tear gas, and rubber bullets deployed against protesters without clear provocation.
- Protesters were often seen dispersing or shielding themselves, not advancing aggressively.
- Trump placed the National Guard under federal control (Title 10), bypassing state authority a rare and provocative move that violates the Tenth Amendment unless the Insurrection Act is formally invoked.

This is the truth.  

1. Dems are pussies and will clutch pearls when they do get power again.

2. Trump is a pussy who is 99% talk.
