"In a city of 502 square miles and 4 million people, only a single city block is experiencing a small protest directed at an #ICE detention facility...

Despite the 501.99 square miles of peace in #LosAngeles, the #media is playing a video loop of two cars set aflame three days ago. That loop plays continuously in the background as #news anchors ignore the illegality of Trump's federalization of #California National Guard"

"ICE went looking for trouble — and when they didn’t find any, they started some.

None of this was necessary.

It’s really weird how Joe #Biden managed to deport undocumented migrants — in greater numbers than Donny — without shitting on the #Constitution, without stomping all over #HumanRights — and without disappearing cancer-stricken #children who happen to be #American citizens."

From California governor Gavin Newsom:

“Let’s get this straight:

1) Local law enforcement didn’t need help.

2) Trump sent troops anyway — to manufacture chaos and violence.

3) Trump succeeded.

4) Now things are destabilized and we need to send in more law enforcement just to clean up Trump’s mess.”

Trump Is Deploying the Marines Against U.S. Citizens

It is flagrantly illegal, of course. He’s doing it anyways.

"This is an extreme escalation from the Trump administration, an aggressive demonstration of force by the [US government] against its own citizens."

According to Matthew 25:41-45, he'd tell that hypocrite Mark Green to go to hell.

In the Bible, #Jesus taught that you should feed the hungry, heal the sick, be kind to the stranger, etc...

Mark Green & the GOP have been doing the exact opposite and continue to do so with Trump's #BigBeautifulBill which takes #food from the hungry, denies #healthcare to the sick & imprisons the stranger.

"It’s pretty clear that #Trump has turned the #pardon process into a pay-to-play system. In the wide open, we’re witnessing the emergence of “a burgeoning pardon economy,” ...where clients pay millions to get pardons in front of the president. Talk about a green light to further #corruption, especially when the crimes being pardoned often involve corruption."

#WWJD?

According to Matthew 25:41-45, he'd tell the #Republicans who support this bill to go to hell.

I no longer consider myself #Christian, but even I know that #Jesus taught that you should feed the hungry, heal the sick, be kind to the stranger, etc...

Which is the opposite of what the GOP is doing with Trump's #BigBeautifulBill which takes #food from the hungry, denies #healthcare to the sick & imprisons the stranger.
