Trump to Send National Guard to L.A. to Quell Immigration Protests www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...
Declaring war on Americans.
I hope everyone of the officers for the NG has had the discussion with their people about obeying unlawful orders.
California National Guard: Remember, you took an oath to protect the country from all threats, foreign & domestic. People standing up to fascism aren't threats, ICE arresting people are. Honor your Oath, not the wanna be dictator of the United States.
In clear violation of Posse Comitatus. The U.S. military is a not a domestic law enforcement agency.
No, it is not. It is expressly permitted for the president to take control of the National Guard in very specific circumstances "the President is unable with the regular forces to execute the laws of the United States" uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?r...
In the event of an insurrection, where the president is unable to defend himself with existing law enforcement. Is that what’s happening?
The problem with what Trump did was he did not go through the governor to activate the National Guard like Title 10 requires, so he is violating the law.
He wants to trigger a reaction. It has nothing to do with de-escalation.

Does’t @gavinnewsom.bsky.social as Gov of CA approve this?
*Wannabe Dictator to Send National Guard to L.A. in a Fascist Attempt to Forcefully Suppress Peaceful Protests
What kind of shitty soft headline is that?
NATIONAL GUARDSMEN MUST RESIST. SAY NO TO FASCISM AND CIVIL WAR
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
No, to start the beginning of our end. Martial Law
RESIST! Trump hopes for a page out of Nazi history--an American "Reichstag" to burn and launch Martial Law. A quick way to suspend Constitutional Law. This is way beyond Constitutional Crisis. If this happens History will indict the Roberts Supreme Court team for authorizing its own downfall.
Trump to California is like Putin to Ukraine

States has control of the National Guard despite its decree from the President. Gov. Newsom says he doesn't need the national guard to assist L.A. law enforcement. This is not the right decision. Abuse of power.
Hmmm…wonder how they’ll respond to ‘No Kings’ in a week?
I'm wondering what the tanks are really for.
Trump illegally usurps states authority over National Guard in power grab. www. moreaccurateheadline. wtf
whose NG? is a memo sufficient?
interesting timing... and I don't believe in coincidences when evil is at work. ICE could have planned their raids any time... but they do it the week before the national #NoKings demonstrations on the 14th. Wanna bet the national guard will still conveniently be in L.A.?
Will they all report? Will some just stay home rather than go to fight their fellow citizens. Same w the Marines in Pendleton. Would some stay in their barracks rather than go to war against their fellow citizens?
What does Gavin say about that?
Fuck that shit

You are not a real journalist. Any more than Gav is a real gov. You are not stupid, project 2025 and S. Miller ( Goebel’s twin) always planned to impose martial law. Try telling the truth, will you melt or just be exposed for another Vichy collaborator
Sweetie : you’re dégoûtant
We don't want to revisit the tragedy of Kent State. As long as its just a love fest like storming the Capital on Jan 6, you will be pardoned and compensated. 😎 x.com/realDonaldTr...
Oh yeah, but January 6 they were just tourists Fuckers!!
We need the National Guard to quell its own self.
Quell is too mild a word for firing less lethal ammo.

Next stop, San Francisco. Then Portland, Seattle, New York, Boston, etc. anywhere he feels threatened will follow the same playbook.
Aawww ❄️ 🧊 couldn’t take the heat
How authoritarian of #trump 🤨
This was always the goal
Next step in the plan It's 1930s Germany re run When do they burn down the capitol building and blame the woke or immigrants
And next comes Marshall law allowing Trump to suspend elections…this is the plan all along!
And he will have a large military contingent in the Capitol soon ... for the "parade"
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
He’s walking right into it again.
Peaceful protesters! And Newsim Did not ask for national guard.
POLICE STATE.
Annnnnd... declare Martial Law. Boom. Project 2025 on target to crown a king.
With no factual reasoning
We really need to replicate 1789 France
Might want to read up on the aftermath of 1789 France. It wasn't exactly happily ever after.
Make them show real id to enter the state.
Major TV media not even covering events in Los Angeles, just running reruns. Wow, they really don’t care about anything, either in a news or business sense.
I know, I turned on local LA news to find anything. Does MSNBC shut down on weekends now?
I remember “4 Dead in Ohio” when then Ohio Governor James Rhodes sent in the National Guard to quell Viet Nam war protesters. These things never end well. 😢
Fuck that rat bastard
I knew this was coming. I hate Trump beyond words.
You should have jailed him for treason in 2021! But you didn't. Now here you are America. 2025 Good luck with that!
Whoever you are and wherever you’re from, fuck off. We know. And you’re not fucking helping.
I get it! But we did sacrifice a lot to save the world from fascism 80 years ago. Maybe y’all could help us out here! We need support. This isn’t easy.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Y9o...
Yea, we’re aware. Thanks
Sorry. It's horrible. Keeping me awake at night too.
It’s horrifying and I’m scared
It is and we're all afraid. Take some comfort in knowing you are not alone. Trust me.
Remember 47 organized & allowed January 6, and then pardoned them. 47 again lying making things up, wasting money, & hoping to add fear.
Don't blame all of America. Many of us never voted for and hate that jackass. I and millions of others have resisted him and backed the impeachments and other attempts to hold him accountable and were blocked at evert turn by the GOP.
As if we the people have power over any of it.
We, the people....
That’s a nice saying.
I think the rest of the world and about 40% of USAians feel the same.
Thanks to those in the streets fighting back against this evil, cruel, racist and inhumane regime.
He has no control over NG unless he invokes Insurrection Act. News on has complete authority until then. What illegal order will Homan, Noem and Trump use concocted by Steven Miller. Heir Miller is driving this insurrection.
NOT DISTRACTED
Under protest from the state’s Governor!
#ICE & #DHS could EASILY have come in with ID & peacefully apprehended people into marked cars & taken them to be booked. The camo, the brutality, the anonymity is unnecessary. It is for SHOW. It is to intimidate. THEY WANT CHAOS. They are NOT preserving peace, they are DISRUPTING peace
No he didn't. He sent them in to seize power and force the state government to bend to his will.
So this is what a new golden age looks like.
Oh great. That's what he was waiting for.
Jim it’s not a protest. The people of LA are protecting our most vulnerable from masked kidnappers.
Why is the orange fascist only doing raids in Blue States??? Ask yourselves this people! This is NOT about illegal immigrants, if it were, they'd be ALL OVER South Dakota, IOWA, NE, and every Red State with farmers and crops and meat plants etc. HOW MANY MIGRANTS ARE EMPLOYED AT Trumpf properties??
"....To scare and intimidate United States Citizens".. fixed it for ya
My God!!
Sounds about time for a brush with “posse comitatus”.
Cause that’s how you deescalate a situation right there.
The Army National Guard is two things. When activated for a federal mission, it is a Reserve Component of the U.S. Army. When not activated, it is a state-based military force under the control of the governors. Trump's activation makes it U.S. Army. A clear violation of Posse Comitatus.
I thought the State's Gov had the power to do that.
TACO man is trying to look tough. Will he invoke Insurrection Act?
Fox Entertainment News is reporting that it has turned from a protest to a riot. They are setting up for the National Guard to take down the protesters.
Says he's doing it or is it already authorized?
This town is mostly immigrants. If he fucks around he’s gonna find out. We protect our own. We show up for each other. We aren’t going to allow him to just take our families, our neighbors, our friends.
Correction: Trump is breaking more laws to make people stop talking about his trillions dollar crimes.
FDT and F ICE
So sick of him and his 'power trips'. Just sick of it. Thinks he's a damn king! #NoKIngs
Surely a misstatement… the ICE attacks on people is the illegal assembly.
Remember Kent State? Feeling a bit nervous at the moment.
Yes i do and this is worse than that and there will be loss of life if they get deployed there is always an itchy trigger finger in the midst.
Ffffker drumpf
Trump is itching to escalate matters so he can declare martial law. 🤬
It’s getting real. They will attempt to normalize violence to quell resistance. If the government kills anyone, all bets “should” be off. This is a tipping point.
If Dems keep “condemning” while Trump federalizes the Guard, deports day laborers, and hints at martial law, they’ll lose the country by the time they finish their next statement. This is a coup in slow motion. ACT like it. Or you’ll be remembered as cowards. @thedemcoalition.bsky.social
It's a win-win for Big Daddy... create a problem, then create a "solution" to that problem so you can create the illusion of achievement
Can’t Gavin call then and have them under his orders?
Looked it up. So this was changed in 07’. Allowing the president to just freely say the Guard is under his control. Even though all 50 state governors wrote Congress at the time opposed, the law was passed by Congress. Why the fuck has this not been repealed or removed under former administrations?
Call your senators - tell them to vote NO on the Big Beautiful (disastrous) Bill.
Awwww, just like LBJ!
Shouldn't that include "....illegally and under the false pretext of..."?
Trump to send national guard to LA to attack US citizens...fixed it
Donald Trump's sending 2000 National Guard men/women to a Home Depot.
I have friends everywhere
because his big manly babies backed into an alley are about to piss and poop their pants? boo-hoo. get on your phony school f'ing bus and fuck the fuck off.
Marshall Law, here we come!
“Martial”
Oops. Yep. Thanks.
No. trump is following republicans script. They started the protests and are escalating the violence.
bsky.app/profile/just...
It's almost as if the administration set it up to get to this point. On purpose.
No shit 🙄
Everyone who signs off on this, they all need to be impeached and go to jail. That's if Democrats ever manage to get into power again. Btw, the Democrats...there's no other party coming to the rescue.
Interesting that he couldnt do that on Jan 6
Fuck trump Fuck ice
Please report on increases in property damage and lives that will occur because of Trump.
The last time a president sent the National Guard to quell protests didn't end so well for the 4 dead in Ohio. #kentstate
Its just a matter of time before he starts shooting all of us. Orange pedophile....
Remove ICE and there won’t be a “protest” to quell. Someone is going to get killed. Then we’re in very serious trouble.
Trump makes everything worse
Isn’t that up to the governor of California?
Nixon did it in Ohio. This will end up in the courts but that doesn’t help us at the moment. Hopefully California attorneys are working on a court intervention
The president can take control from the governor, especially if he’s going to do the whole insurrection act thing
Should mention he signed a memo, which has zero legal authority
Did fascists ever care what authority they actually have? At the moment the nation seems to be a slowly boiling frog.... until its utterly too late. Trump's (read Miller's) next play will be martial law and mass arrests of democrats.
Missing my point. The mechanism to move the guard to Trump from Newsom isn't here. Newsom is their leader. That matters. Trump declaring it doesn't make it so.
It's there, if you use the insurrection act. Which MAGA ist absolutely doing as per project 2025.
Right but not in that memo.
Correct you are. But since it's been constitutional crisis time for a few months, it's only semantics at this point.
We need to stop this!!!
Pretty sure everyone's Bingo card had: "Trump sends ICE to a blue city, then tries to deploy the military against protestors" on it.
Strap in folks! This is what we have been waiting for and expecting. One step away from martial law.
BREAKING: STOP IT DJCHUMP! We got this! We didn't ask 4your MILITARY assistance w/peaceful protests! U didn't see need @the Capital insurrection! We are a minority majority state! Meaning there are MORE minorities than whyte people. We then don't need u trying to understand our dynamic!
This is the moment that he has been waiting for. It’s inevitable. The federal government is going to induce violence and when they get even a scent of it, they are going to be killing Americans in the streets to the whooping cheers of Foxnews viewers.
Bad framing
Not quell — inflame.
You know damn well that’s not why
This looks nothing like the America I grew up it. This is truly sad, I'm looking at the video of California. And I believe its only the beginning.
Trump is going to murder peaceful protestors.
Any chance at all that this doesn't turn into another Kent State?
Under what authority?
Good theater to further brainwash his MAGA cult and hurt Californians.
WHOSE guard, tho? CA’s? TX’s?
Of course, it was always part of the plan. Smh at it all in disgust.
Although it’s not exactly the same I am having a bit of a flash back “Tin soldiers and Nixon coming”
Correction - Trump Administration turns military on citizens & legal immigrants ICE military style actions were aimed at terrorizing citizens & immigrant communities in order to incite a reaction as pretext to bring in National Guard
Are you willing & able to be a pro-democracy fighter, an anti-trumpregime fighter, a pro-freedom fighter, an anti-oppression fighter, a pro-humanrights fighter, an anti-terrorist fighter? Join in person if you can, &/or create good trouble wherever you are/whenever you can! bsky.app/profile/clif...
And the marines.
Couldn’t mange to call them on j6 though….
There’s a lot of pent up frustration out there with young people. I’m wishing for their safety in LA as they cause good trouble chaos.
Using the military to fight against our own citizens. America's enemies are high-fiving each other tonight.
