Heard from a close friend in DC that the occupying forces have arrested a few observers who were documenting their actions. Not a surprise, but that’s an escalation from how things had been.

So it looks like they're ramping it up now. Last week they were ticketing people for broken tail lights.

I continue to get the feeling that the administration, through it's military, wants to invoke a violent response from the protesters. It would be an excuse to declare martial law and suspend most civil rights, including next year's elections.

Yup. probably disappointed. Keep the gray hairs on the front lines. I'm one of them and I'm out there for this reason. Violence is unlikely and the optics would be very bad....

Stand in your yards and record it. If they approach, explain what a civil suit is. I am sure the Trump administration didn’t explain this to the “troops” they put on the street. 💙🔥😆 #makeamericasaneagain

They're working their way to the part where no dissent whatsoever will be tolerated. And at an alarming pace.

Mark my words, these thugs are intentionally trying to instigate violent responses by the public, so the orange stain can use it as a pretext to declare martial law, which in America will instigate MORE, albeit justifiable, violence.

Seen already video taped, they are arresting observers, videographers. Soon it will be the press also.

I can confirm this is true. They were also harassing an NPR reporter earlier in the week for simply trying to do her job. Tread carefully when filming ICE agents.

Not sure if you meant me, but I was referring to ICE agents. From what I have seen so far, the NG just stand around looking bored, but I could have missed some unpleasant interactions.

With all the dirt currently living in the White House and the hate these guys produce, it would probably be better to ask the Canadians to do an 1812, snooker or the tattooists and paedophiles and start with a clean slate.
