Trump isn’t sending the Guard to Chicago & New York because of crime. Crime is falling. He’s sending them because authoritarians need enemies on TV. The “emergency” isn’t safety...it’s control. And this may be the dress rehearsal for something darker. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
couldn't these States preemptively activate their state national Guard so Trump would not have access to them?
He doesn't even bother to fake any pretext. He is just a senile, child "man" Hitler wannabe. All who support him are traitors.
It’s also a great way to weaken our military and defenses.
It is more than that, they are populating blue cities with federal LE, National Guard from red states and will call up the military when they annouce their takeover. It's a stealth not so stealthy civil war. They are at war with us.
I’ll bet that the storm troopers will have near zero presence in the south or west sides. They’ll hang out in the pretty places like the mag mile or the near north. Maybe Grant park.
Here in New York that sandwich will have a brick in it.
Yeah, because those places are safe. The rest of it? They will eat them up, and leave no crumbs behind. "Soldiers? What Soldiers? We didn't see nobody here."
Trump wants to start a riot.... and invoke the Insurrection Act.
Absolutely he will start a riot invoke the insurrection act and then he plans on canceling the midterms because there’s an insurrection. He knows the Democrats are gonna win the midterms and his biggest fear is they will prosecute him.
yep
Is no one disputing the claims of a a real emergency? He’s FOS!!
Megalomaniac!
"he is going to try".
New York and Chicago aren’t Washington DC. They will be eaten in a sandwich if they come here. Or the sandwich will have a brick in it.
✅💯
There is no legal basis to do this in NY or Chicago anyway
He acts like a barking dog. It's even bad to compare him to a dog.
What the fuck is wrong with his fucking eyes good God!!
This is just the beginning… spreading troops around the United States until he has every Democratic run state under his thump. Then he will tighten the grip and Bam we will wake up to a communist regime. The way institutions are just following his orders now is an indication that nobody stops him
Where are all the independents and democrats who are gun owners who refused to give up their guns in case they need to protect themselves and their families. Well that time is here and nobody is doing anything.
I think 2 things; 1) He's fishing for violence. As soon as someone kills an ICE agent or a National Guardsman, he'll have the excuse he needs to invoke martial law. 2) He's establishing armies in these cities to quell rebellions for when he fucks with elections and refuses to leave office. Again.
He doesn't need an excuse
He is going to need a bigger army here.
BINGO
It's not going to go well for him. Pritzker and Hochul won't put up with his Hitler style shenanigans
He's trying to enact Martial Law. This has NOTHING to do with fighting crime. He is a wannabe Dicktator!!! It's time to RESIST!
This fucking guy!
There is no basis in law for him to do so. There was a basis for DC.
Time to openly resist
Straight up... The MF needs to be taken out. Bomb Bullet Piano Whatever 💀
I don't think we're going to be very welcoming here in Chicago. Send the national guard to the red states president pussy boy.
Really! What a bunch of crybabies! Has ICE looked for immigrants at gang hangouts??? Not just churches, schools, or courts! What a bunch of cowards’
🖕
Sorry to say but this ain’t no dress rehearsal! Trump is not that refined or patient. This is it! He is imposing martial law and unless stopped, he will deploy the military to every state in the next six months.
He will castrate democracy so it is just a puppet to validate his authoritarian regime and he will rule America just like Tiberius Caligula and Nero!
youtu.be/iW1KqMd4FL8?...
strategic prepositioning of ARMED troops for when the coup begins.
Trump is using any pretended excuse or pretext, to use the real military in a show of force against Democratic strongholds. If posse comitatus isn't upheld, he will gradually occupy and hold hostage the citizens of target states. He is so far out of bounds, even some of the Republicans can see.
It’s getting too late for even some of the republicans that have see the light to resist him. He has no loyalty to them. They will soon find out.
Ass!
‘Crime is down, No Problem’ will not be a winning message, so please.
Darker than the authoritarian regime we are currently living under?
Chicago’s gonna be a whole nuther ballgame. They ain’t gonna be as “welcoming” as LA or DC
I can’t wait to see what Chicago and New York do as a reaction. Seriously, they are recruiting voters for the Democrats every single day.
May be???
Is there ANY chance the troops will start to protest and even refuse duty?
Military are trained to follow the president, Religious and political wars started by Kings/Nobles in England/Scotland/Ireland were reasons that we fled here in the first place. We forgot our history. People may end up fleeing back to escape persecution. It’s happened before,this is only beginning.
This is from a summary of how to overturn Trump. Foremost in a soldier's duty is defending the Constitution:
I agree, but look with the military in Germany when Hitler ordered them to turn on their own people. They did it.
He's not sending anybody. He's using states guards without federalizing them. Vought is the architect behind this. Project 2025. trump has no idea what Title 32 is. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...
Trump’s closed the White House to tourists. He’s deployed troops in DC. He’s told us he will occupy three major cities thereby controlling our financial & technology centers. This is a Coup.
There must be some republicans with a sense of decency and a love of freedom, right??
It doesn't feel like a dress rehearsal - more like opening night!
If there is one thing that can truly unite the gangs, cubs v Sox fans, bears and the few packers fans in Chicago, the Italian/polish/irish mobs still very much alive in Chicago. It’s the federal government coming in and putting ketchup on hotdogs.
This is not a dress rehearsal It’s live action and a full frontal assault on our country. It will not be bloodless
TACO thought LA was going to be easy pickins. Now he is trying to prove to MAGA and Daddy Vladdy what a great big boy he is by going to Chicago and NY.
Please croak already!
Ribbit!🐸
On the nose, Jack. They're closing the door on dissent.
He is gonna get people killed unnecessarily because criminals want them M-16s. He is so stupid
Oh you mean just like his mishandling of COVID!
Yes
GOP obstruction to trump impeachment is intolerable. VOTE OUT GOP to get rid of trump and his democracy destroying kakistocracy.
I have no brain matter left. I feel badly for whoever has to clean my walls.
We need to start imagining the worst that can happen.
No imagining - WE NEED TO BE IN THE STREETS EVERY EFFING DAY - EVERYWHERE ACROSS THE COUNTRY!
You need to watch this right now. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8BfVEj8/
DC isn’t Chicago or NY Go for it. See how that works out
The fascist takeover
He’s going after Dem cities because they think Dems don’t have a problem with losing 2nd Amendment rights. Snatch arms there then move on the entire blue state. All in the name of “safety”.
Authoritarian governments have never allowed privately owned guns. Never in history. They will restrict who can or cannot by some sort of loyalty pledge.
Little late for that.
Better start hiding your guns Democrats. Just in case you need them in the future. They will only confiscate them in blue areas.
So my prediction is it will be immigrants and non-whites first to be prohibited from ownership. Then they’ll go after non-Christians.
Crime is falling in Chicago? Really? You got data to support that, Jack?
How many senators and house reps do we need to flip/offer safe harbor to? This cannot be real. We will have a civil war before Christmas at this rate.
We are in a Civil War. They’ve already started shooting what do you think the assassinations of the democrats in Minnesota were? And Trump just laughed it off. What about the plans to kidnap the gov. of Michigan? These are act of war. What do you think putting military in cities are? Acts of war.
I guess I meant of us regular people who aren’t elected to office or huge activists.
"Dress rehearsal" nails it for sure.
Yeah, MAY, be.
100% trying to provoke a violent encounter(s) so he can declare martial laws in Blue cities. It’s not some great secret.
To many people live in a densely populated NYC. We have very tall buildings. ICE is afraid of being shot. They only go after working migrates. They would never make it out of a garment factory
He looks like the walking dead, tick tock traitor
Every time he opens his mouth he’s doing something dark
He's trying to sweep the country of potential Democrat voters.
Of course he will, and MSM will cover it endlessly instead of asking our government real questions about the economy and Russia because MSM want ratings more than answers.
Is this the last chapter of the greatest democracy? What will it take to get back to normal? I’m having unsettled vibes for the future.
Yes
Ammo up, hunker down. Fur is about to fly.
Congress won’t stop him.
This moron... www.facebook.com/share/v/1J7z...
He requires more distractions to draw the attention of his followers away from his business dealings with Epstein, which involved criminal illicit transactions in the billions of dollars and included pedophilia! Or put plainly, he needs to sucker his base of followers into accepting his bag of lies!
He doesn't know what hornets nest he's kicking by sending people to Chicago.
1968 will seem like a lovely garden party
Exactly!
NY too. He is hated there.
No kidding. I don't think these gang goons really understand that either. Whelp, fuck around and find out.
Yep…..fafo
Chicago nearly destroyed the Dave Mathew’s band career over an accident. Can’t wait to see how this plays out.
Chicago is like the honey badger. Honey Badger don't care. Honey Badger will fuck you up.
This absolute clown with the trump was right about everything cap. Cringe loser.
This is the darker, we are fully living an authoritarian dystopia in the USA. Pretend otherwise at your risk, and all who can must resist
Yes, it’s all control and power. Crime would fall if he went to the high crime red states. He doesn’t do that because he wants the attention and the confrontations give him that.
Follow the homicides if you actually care. It ain't where your spending OUR money.
HE GOT A FACELIFT
And when you're a star they let you do it🇨🇦
Listen to the VICTIMS . BELIEVE the victims .
He looks sickly.
I don’t think it’s a dress rehearsal. I’m afraid we’re watching Act 1.
Everything he does is practice for next time, Jan 6 included.
