BREAKING: An old video of Donald Trump is going viral for claiming then President Barack Obama will “start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective.” Sounds like a message to himself!
BREAKING: Former Los Angeles Police Department Chief Michel Moore slams Donald Trump's illegal decision to deploy troops to Los Angeles in his brutal fascist crackdown on protestors, says that it's "at odds with the principles of our democracy" and "tactically unsound."
And he wasn't done there...
"Over the past week, President Trump has deployed more military troops to the streets of Los Angeles than there are stationed in Iraq and Syria," wrote Moore in a new op-ed in The New York Times entitled "I Ran the L.A.P.D. I Know What Happens When Troops Are Sent to American Cities."
In it, Moore laid out his well-founded opposition to Trump's illegal decision to federalize the National Guard without the permission of California Governor Gavin Newson as well as his move to mobilize a battalion of Marines.
"California’s emergency response infrastructure is among the most advanced in the country. Its emergency management system and mutual aid plan allow it to request help from neighboring law enforcement agencies, the California Highway Patrol and, when needed, the California National Guard. I have overseen the activation of these systems in response to both natural disasters and overwhelming disorder," wrote Moore, who served as LAPD Chief from 2018 to 2024.
"They work — and they are rooted in principles of local control, coordination and public accountability. Deploying federal troops undermines all three," he added.
Moore went on to criticize Trump for inventing a crisis to justify a naked power grab. As everyone but the most diehard MAGA supporters can see, Trump isn't interested in maintaining "law and order." He's interested in looking tough to his base by brutalizing his political enemies.
"History reminds us of the dangers of blurring these lines. The tragedy at Kent State, where unarmed student protesters were gunned down by National Guard troops, offers a stark warning," wrote Moore. "The federal government’s deployment of military personnel now risks causing the same escalation, tragic error and lasting damage to public confidence.
He went on to state that federal troops should be used "only in cases of widespread collapse of civil authority and only at the explicit request of local leaders.”
"That is not what happened in Los Angeles," stated Moore. "The deployment appears to have been initiated without meaningful consultation or coordination with city or county officials. That is unacceptable."
"There is no question that serious unrest and violence have occurred in parts of downtown Los Angeles. Attacks on buildings and threats to public safety must be taken seriously. But this is not an insurrection," he continued. "These incidents are localized, and local law enforcement agencies are fully capable of addressing them."
"None of this is to say the military has no role in supporting civil authorities. In times of natural disaster, true insurrection or total collapse of civil order, federal troops may be warranted," he wrote.
"But this moment calls for clear thinking, not coercive overreach. It demands leaders who know the difference between strength and domination. The streets of Los Angeles — and cities across America — should be protected by those who are trained and equipped to serve with restraint, accountability and a deep understanding of the communities they serve," continued Moore.
"Our democracy depends on it," he concluded.
Please retweet and ❤️ if to thank Moore for speaking out!

Where’s Jake Tapper and all the media who used to tell us every time Biden lost a step?
@krassenstein Quick solution to end the war. Guarantee to give Ukraine Whatever it needs to succeed and remove the invading forces. This means money Intel tc. Continue with sanctions and add more. Saying that all of NATO stands with Ukraine until they defeat Russia. Then Putin will want peace
