Brand-new polling from YouGov out this AM finds Trump's actions re: LA underwater. Double-digit disapproval on sending in Marines.
This should be a reality check for those people arguing the protests inherently help Trump bc his immigration approval # is positive.

New in PN: ABC is too cowed to state the obvious about Stephen Miller
"Miller and Trump are hateful bigots. Independent journalists can still say that. Journalists at ABC can’t, because the president gets a veto over their coverage. That’s not democracy and it’s not a free press. It’s fascism."

CA Citizens should call for the arrest of Tom Homan for violating their states rights and immigration laws.
1/2 Tom Homan doesn’t have the authority to send in the National Guard—only the governor does. His threats are not law—they're fascist fantasy. This is a man who oversaw family separations and wants to crush dissent with military force. The protests in LA are not chaos. They are democracy in action.
