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

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

We didn’t need the National Guard. Why on Earth? What are they going to do?

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

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

This move was purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Trump may be using the city as a 'test case' for stripping authority from state and local governments.

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

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

Tom, arrest me. Let’s go.

Donald Trump is a stone cold liar.

concerned about ongoing ICE operations

purposefully inflammatory

We begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it.

He’s hoping for chaos so he can justify more crackdowns, more fear, more control.

This is un-American.

If you deploy the National Guard, it’s going to be very incendiary, and things are going to erupt, and that creates a public safety problem.

This is a day I hoped I would never see in America.
