The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
@StephenM You’ve always been a little Santa Monica elite brat. Everyone knows you and no one ever liked you. You’re still the same little brat and no amount of false power you’ve managed to adopt will ever change that. You’ll always be the same desperate ass no one liked. We see you.
This isn’t the first time Trump has tried to use the military to suppress political
speech that he disagreed with. But, unfortunately, it’s the first time that there haven’t been adults in the room to stop him.
Trump’s border czar is threatening to arrest me for speaking out.
Come and get me, tough guy.
I don't give a damn.
It won’t stop me from standing up for California.
First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors.
This ain’t about law and order.
This is what authoritarianism looks like.
I have formally requested the Trump Administration rescind their unlawful deployment of troops in Los Angeles county and return them to my command.
We didn’t have a problem until Trump got involved. This is a serious breach of state sovereignty — inflaming tensions while pulling resources from where they’re actually needed.
Rescind the order. Return control to California.
This is utter bullshit @abcnews. You’re the free press. You don’t do what the authoritarian in the White House tells you to do. Thank you @TerryMoran for having the courage to speak the truth.
