OPINION: In Trump’s Military Occupation of DC, Crime is Not the Point | This is not only a step toward large-scale militarization and racist suppression, but we could also see it lay the groundwork for privatization and corporate profiteering.

If crime was the point, rather than Trump sending in 2,000+ UNTRAINED National Guard troops, Congressional Republicans could have funded 2,000+ additional TRAINED DC law enforcement officers.
Trump is testing, provoking, always pushing boundaries to see how far he can go before honorable American service members tell him to go fk himself.
The Pinkertons must be licking their chops at the ICE budget.
This is simply them desensitizing the country to the idea that military occupation is ok.
"Here is what I think: Trump is illegally deploying the military in blue cities to set the stage to interfere with the 2026 elections." @marcelias.bsky.social
I’m not surprised! Yet he had his hand stuck out there to his followers earlier today BEGGING for money like some deranged pauper!! I guess this is to secure $$ for another 20 golf dates for future fun & games. How disgusting!!!
Along with obvious voter suppression, or an excuse to never hold another election.
Pedophiles love law and order for everyone else.
