Trump’s border czar says he’s sending National Guard to fight LA anti-ICE protests as clashes continue into second day

ICE is operating in Los Angeles County (Paramount, for example, an incorporated city) - 4,083 sq mi. for the National Guard to cover.

Yup, and they’ve cried to local cops for help to get escorted away from the protesting lol. They can’t handle the area let alone lock it down. 2k national guard won’t be able to either.

I have zero doubts they’ll be given an order to use live rounds and shoot people protesting, which can kick things off more.

This is also another way for Trump to attack California.

Next I expect them to arrest Dem politicians vocal against them about this saying they’re interfering.
 
Trump's America
 
I find it funny Trumpers are all gung-ho about this but defend Jan 6 subhumans, which went on for so long because Trump refused to call in the national guard for an actual insurrection.
 
He can federalize till his eyes turn orange but if he issues unconstitutional orders, military, NatGuard, police are under no obligation to follow them, they are warned NOT to.
They are not required to follow orders that are, in the words of the Founders: REPUGNANT TO THE CONSTITUTION.
Under federal law, 18 USC 242, it is illegal for anyone under the color of law to deprive any person of the rights, privileges or immunities secured by the U.S. Constitution, and under 18 USC 241 it is illegal to conspire to violate such rights.
It is a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison. This could be applied to local, state, or federal law enforcement or military personnel who abuse the rights of citizens. Every state has a similar law.
 
As well as disturbing as hell. As a student of history NONE of the signs point anywhere we want to go.
 
Exactly. People who enter our country illegally or overstay their visa need to be tossed out, have their visa revoked, and be banned from our country until they learn how to respect our laws.
This administration is doing it's job not like the Biden/Harris debacle.
Looks like Garcia is going to get his day in court as well.
Now if we can get the democrats on board with the need for these illegals to obey our laws.
I see the rioting has started as usual in California. I wonder how many stores will be looted, burned, and destroyed by these peaceful protestors again.
 
An easy way to resolve the issue would be for the Federal government to allow all who are in the country illegally and self identify within a defined period of time to be immediately granted citizenship, and say up to $250,000 Federal aid to purchase a house. Perhaps it would require raising or eliminating the debt ceiling first. At least there would be a housing boom.

That he is. Nice to see a leader actually doing what they were elected to do.
 
Hegseth threatening to use regular military on civilians with marines.
 
So can you explain why you demand that foreigners respect our laws but voted for a multiple felon to be president?

Seems kind internally inconsistent to me.

Like another entry into odd behaviors associated with having been completely captured by propagandists in a way no society has ever seen due to social media and algorithm.
