My guess here is that Trump will say they were at #macarthurpark to “clean it up” and cite it as a known MS13 gang territory…. And will cite 47’s Jan exec order citing MS13 as a terrorist org to justify federal show of force…. To be clear… in the process the admin is…
MacArthur park is literally where the unhoused live. This has zero to do with criminal anything. Nothing to do with immigration. This is photo op bullshit.

Senator @booker.senate.gov has been talking for close to 18 hours now. In his suit & tie. With just 2 small glasses of water & a massive binder he’s been reading from. He’s not reading green eggs n ham. He’s attacking maga policies. I know John Lewis & the ancestors are proud and helping fuel him.
