Just saw a video on the front of @latimes.com about a man born and raised in East LA who got stopped by the federal gestapo and he showed them his Real ID and they stole it, took it & didn’t give it back

Then they walked off like a violent gang with their giant ass guns in the middle of the street

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to *be* law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

Just thinking about how Stephen Miller is the motivating force behind what's happening in Paramount today, and probably the demand to take over California's national guard, and that he grew up in Southern California and apparently is still angry and carrying grudges because he was so despised here.

It’s provocation. LA didn’t ask for the National Guard. We don’t need it, and won’t be safer because of it.

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.

That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.
