We are not there yet, and so far, it seems the NG are holding true to their moral center. But I worry about that line eventually being crossed. And if it happens, it is all because of this administration’s insistence on harassing blue cities and states.

"No matter how brazen Trump becomes, the most effective communicator in the Democratic Party continues to opt for minimal communication. His “audacity of hope” presidency has given way to the fierce lethargy of semi-retirement."
Dems are becoming more feckless.

Even @kamalaharris.com has issued a statement about the LA Protests and the obvious grab by Trump to wrest control from CA's democratic processes.
Am I missing something, or is there some sinister Zeitgeist keeping active Democratic governors quiet and feckless?
Are they taking cues from Obama?

I worry that Major General Beevers (commander of the National Guard California) will not listen to better moral reason. His Wikipedia page already counts "June 2025 LA Protests" as a "battle/war"!?!
