National Guard troops are now protecting ICE agents as they make arrests in LA
Los Angeles leaders impose curfew as protests against Trump's immigration crackdown continue
National Guard troops began protecting immigration agents as they made arrests in Los Angeles on Tuesday, an expansion of their duties that had been limited to protecting federal property.
Fuck ICE. Fuck Trump.
And fuck the national guard for going along with this shit. Marines, too.
This narrative just makes ICE look weak.
Protect them from what? Signs and expletives?
They are absolutely hanging those guardsmen out to dry intentionally. They’re very literally trying to get some of them killed.
The real problem is that those troops are fucked either way now. I was following orders won't keep them out of Leavenworth for their participation in this.
Newsom can un-fuck the CA NG troops. He is constitutionally empowered to appoint the officers of the NG units. He can discharge them, effectively disbanding the National Guard units. California has a State Guard as well as National Guard. The State Guard answers solely to the Governor; it cannot be federalized. Newsom can offer the officers and troops commissions in the State Guard or the State Police, while disbanding the National Guard units.
authorities didn’t say if the looting was tied to the protests.
I'll clear this up, looting is not protesting, so fucking no.
Someone get me "enemy of the people" stickers from the drawer.
