Opinion: Why California became Trump’s favorite target — and why the state isn’t backing down, according to @jnewton100.bsky.social, former editor and columnist at the Los Angeles Times.
Opinion | Why California Became Trump’s Favorite Target — and Why the State Isn’t Backing Down
There’s much more at stake for Trump — and Californians — than deportations.

My fellow Americans‼️
Pay attention to the sheer level of firepower directed at this ONE (1) young man and his skateboard.

True to form, this bad ass walks through their flash-bangs and teargas like a G, then gives cops the finger before slowly walking away. Paramount CA, outside #LosAngeles. #ICE

It’s a recalibration of economic control.

Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way.

When the dust finally settles, they will own more.

The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

I'm sorry, SocSec IS NOT BREAKING DOWN.

It's being deliberately broken by the Trusk Team. You don't take a sledgehammer to SocSec, and then say "Oh, look, it seems to have broken down."

With Social Security, don't get too caught up talking about the minutiae.

THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE AWAY SOCIAL SECURITY.

Lead with that every time, then talk about how: removing offices, ID verification, bogus fraud claims, layoffs, etc.

Set the narrative now. It's not alarmist. It's happening.

The Department of Education’s RIF’ed lawyers are collecting their personal belongings Monday 12-1pm, at 500 12th street SW — not the main building. Let's steer some folks their way for a clap out. Right now they’re assuming no one will show up for them and planning to make their own signs 😢

The protests aren’t slowing down—they’re spreading. City to city, town to town. People are outraged, and they’re making it known.

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE. But stay peaceful—don’t give Trump any excuse for violence or martial law.

USAID is the best of America. We paid for that food. Congress funded that aid. Taxpayers agreed it was in our best national interest to generously and non violently alleviate suffering around our shared globe. This is illegal af. #usaid
