You said you were going after dangerous criminals ? Now you are taking hard working people off the streets, separating parents from kids, taking people from immigration court who are following the rules, & putting the military on our streets…this isn’t America. DON’T TELL US EVERYTHING IS FINE

Let’s Be Clear: The Rioting In LA Is By The Cops, Not The Protestors
I already wrote about the GOP’s bloodthirsty desire to use the military on Americans. They manufactured a nonsense “crisis” by over-aggressively sending in ICE agents to grab people off the streets, leading to protests, which were focused on provoking protestors into violence, which would then be used to justify an even more violent crackdown. Given that, it’s crucial to get actual reports from what’s actually happening on the street, rather than relying on questionable media framing by those not actually there.

Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that Sherman's comments reflect regular rules of engagement, which allows troops to temporarily detain individuals if they pose a threat to federal property or personnel. The official said it did not reflect an expansion of authorities. TRUE

If you ask a Marine—any fucking Marine—what they do during DSCA they will say detain and transfer to civil authority.

LAPD Won’t Do Immigration Enforcement — But Will Shoot You With Rubber Bullets for Protesting ICE
LA’s sanctuary laws ban cops from helping ICE in most cases. But the LAPD was out in full force repressing protests against the raids.

Marine infantry battalions do train for crowd control and do have equipment for that mission. How well trained, how well equipped? Well—military grade for both.

A corollary to this, by the way, is that the surge of attention and appreciation the Booker gained by a (very good!) publicity stunt drained very quickly when he then did nothing with it and kept voting to approve Trump nominees. That sort of thing makes it harder to climb out of the slump
