U.S. Lieutenant Governors

Instead of rolling back the program — meaning cutting people off for basic care — we’re capping it.

The deployment was poorly planned, and claimed the soldiers were 'without fuel, food, water or a place to sleep.'

Democracy is under assault

Trump's actions put democracy 'under assault,'

At no point in the past three days has there been a rebellion or an insurrection.

They want a spectacle. They want the violence.

This is not the way a civilized country behaves. It is completely deranged behavior.

My party loses the moral high ground when we refuse to condemn setting cars on fire, destroying buildings, and assaulting law enforcement.

A fitting threat given the @GOP want[s] to bring our country back to the 18th Century.

Donald Trump is a stone cold liar.

Tom, arrest me. Let’s go.

This move was purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

When Donald Trump sought blanket authority to commander the National Guard, he made that order apply to every state in this nation.

This isn't just about protests here in Los Angeles.

He’s a tough guy. Why doesn’t he do that? He knows where to find me.

Purposefully inflammatory

The level of escalation is completely unwarranted, uncalled for, and unprecedented.

You can’t defend when people start setting things on fire or they start damaging buildings or going after members of law enforcement. That’s not free speech. That is not peaceful protest.

A federal mobilization an act of overkill for demonstrations that didn’t draw a turnout above three figures

We pay over $80 BILLION more in taxes than we get back. Maybe it’s time to cut that off, @realdonaldtrump.

Come after me. Arrest me. Let’s just get it over with, tough guy.

Blatant abuse of power

We didn't have a problem until Trump got involved.

The deployment of the Marines from Twentynine Palms is an intensely risky move.
