"...peaceful protests..." Consider the rabblerousers injected by kings and oligarchs into a protesting crowd. Violence is inevitable, and offers "justification" for further authoritarian crackdown.
With all these ICE guys all masked up, no ID, and generally looking pretty skeevy, it’s kinda hard to tell who’s setting stuff on fire and breaking windows. I haven’t seen any footage of how those cars got set on fire.
I have seen plenty of footage of “Law Enforcement” shoving and roughing-up people who were peacefully protesting and not touching anyone.
The sad thing is that no matter what Governor Newsom does and what anybody does as far as lawsuits the Supreme Court is totally corrupted and compromised
So if it makes it up to the Supreme Court will not be supported because they are on Trump’s side and part of this fascist movement
The anniversary of Robert Kennedy’s assassination just was
His son is defaming his honor and his legacy. He is destroying the legacy of his father and his two uncles. They fought for universal healthcare for all Americans and against racism.
And he has no shame
The Kennedy family must be watching this in horror.
"Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope...those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression.." Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy
We are experiencing the highest levels of gaslighting,manipulationand it is getting very difficult to listen to.
Example
We had an economy that was declared to be “ the envy of the world”
Yet all Trump says is how bad the economy was and such mess. Economy was in excellent shape as he destroys it because he wants to take it over and collapse it.
His whole entire campaign he did nothing but talk about the decline of America. How bad America was America was a mess, blah blah blah. . Which was not true. But he wanted to take it over and collapse it.
Now he’s focused on California and Gavin Newsom so it’s the same playbook just go on TV and talk about what a mess how horrible it is blaming him on the fires no less . Because he wants to get rid of Gavin and take over California.
This psychopathic extremely manipulative pathological lying playbook is extremely demented and twisted and evil. It is very difficult to listen to the outrageous pathological, lying and manipulating that’s going on as he causes chaos intentionally and then talks about how bad things were.
Things are bad because he did it
The economy is in shambles because he did it
Our country is in shambles because he did it .
The playbook is just to keep repeating and repeating, and repeating the same pathological lies about how bad something is as he is destroying it and then claiming he’s making it better
To see a human being, be so skilled at this type of extreme manipulation and gaslighting is overwhelming .
This is the behavior of a predator .
It is the highest level of brainwashing.
At this point, I’m wondering, how are we ever going to survive this?
As I look back over the last 4 1/2 years I see the greatest villain, by ineptness, is Merrick Garland. Had Merrick Garland done his job, no Musk, no Doge, no tariffs, and no Trump. His failures during his 4 year tenure is an epic failure. He could have published the Epstein file which included Trump. He could have put Trump in jail for multiple cases. He should have prosecuted the Congress members that abetted the January 6 insurrection. Flynn, Stone, Patel… all should be in bars.
We are where we are and things have happened the way they are because this is nothing but a very focused, predatory, fascist authoritarian takeover that has been decades in the making
If “non-violence” was so damn vital to any civil movement in America, the chief architect of J6 would not be back in the White House and those who attacked and maimed cops that day would not be walking free, pardons in hand.
I keep reading that two characteristics of our street protests are paramount: “Non-violence” and “massive”. The non-violent thing is being repeated ad nauseum, while the massive part goes unaddressed. Nothing thus far has met the “massive” threshold needed for sustainability. And nothing, not even June 14, will UNTIL Trump crosses that most serious of lines: Martial law. Given that reality, instead of preaching more Kumbaya, isn’t it time we instead flat-out told Trump “We dare ya”? We need to egg the bastard on; lure him to cross that line. It’s the only thing that will rouse our slumbering masses to truly reach that plateau of “massive”.
I hope this situation becalms. All MAGA has to do is claim Antifa, and open fire, and the country will explode. I wonder if these White House advisers realize THEY’LL never be safe in public again if that happens. This is a land with 400 million guns in private hands, not a small disarmed college campus.
Thank you, Mr. Sykes. In typical djt fashion, the situation just continues to spiral down into the sewer. Rick Wilson told us everything djt touches dies. And American democracy is in its death throes as we come under the thumb of a life form who can’t even walk up steps. Let’s go, TACO.
He is bankrupting the country as he did his companies and casinos. Nothing new here. Except the authoritarian police state brought to you by his enablers (looking at you, Heritage Foundation and Republican Party).
No problem with the Confederate flag in the Capitol Building on 01/06/2021...Just a problem with the flag of our neighbor - and longtime ally - on the streets of LA. And did you watch the film of Trump and S. Miller appealing for calm on ABC News? No, just a lot of pronouncements that create Terry Moran's "truth is an absolute defense" place in our time.

Just sayin’
This fascist authoritarian movement led by several has literally gutted out everything around trapping people so nobody has a way out
Everywhere you turn there’s one of them standing there
I still want believe in the power of the people
“evil prevails when good men do nothing “
I still want to believe in the power of the good people
And being on the right side of history
The sad thing is that no matter what Governor Newsom does and what anybody does as far as lawsuits the Supreme Court is totally corrupted and compromised
So if it makes it up to the Supreme Court will not be supported because they are on Trump’s side and part of this fascist movement
It’s interesting to look at the “grievances” that were written up by the colonies against England as the colonies were fighting back.
There is a lot of correlation there .
England has evolved
America has devolved
The colonies ( victims ) have become what they were fighting against.
Russia is pounding Ukraine right now
Trump said, of course they are after they did the drone plan .
It is crazy. It is crazy making.

But he failed to do anything in a timely manner.
I do not agree

I too am concerned that these thugs are way out over their skiis and completely unaware of how vulnerable they make themselves.

That part of California used to be Mexico, after it was settled by the Spanish, after natives lived there for thousands of years.
Which unfortunately calls to mind that half the country used to be the Confederacy, so maybe I see the problem...
Excellent points💯
