Six big city mayors wrote to the Trump administration and Congress on Monday objecting to the unsolicited deployment of federal forces in their cities — which they said was political and reminiscent of authoritarian regimes.
Everything that Trump touches he turns it to shit due to unbelievable incompetence … he implement a “tough talking” foreign policy and now the US Is literally the laughing stock, he embraced White Nationalism, and now they lost their flags and statues, now he is implementing facissm and it’s going to blow in his face…
Next November he is going to claim to have
a) Destroyed Economic Imperialism
b) Uprooted the legacy of Jim Crow
c) Exposed and discredited Fascism among the Police and other Law Enforcement agencies.
I think you answered your own question. It’s very possible all of the fake soldiers being sent to American cities are volunteers, and they are enjoying their ‘work’.
Completely off topic, but I just heard Michael Brooks died - at the age of 37. I am going to spend the day listening to his recent shows and thinking how truly shitty this year has become. I did not always agree with him, but I loved his takedowns of the hate mongers on both sides and his humor, intelligence and empathy.
As for the Martial Law lite that seems to be the new normal, what can anyone say? So many people have predicted it that it seems almost anti-climactic at this point. Guaranteed deaths in the near future.
The letter slammed the lack of oversight and training for the federal forces, “including critical crowd management and deescalation techniques,”
WHAT?! How can you say that when the best Russian ‘consultants’ are on hand to give them the special training needed for these situations. “Deescalation techniques”… ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
This isn’t happening in a vacuum either. There is a (what I think) coordinated effort on a lot of news and social media sites to meme the idea that the 2nd amendment is just for such an occasion and protesters (and anyone really) should arm themselves and resit any attempt to be detained by these people. The trolls are fanning the flames and trying to cause open confrontations (which is what Trump wants). Be it Russian, or just alt-right accelerationists it really doesn’t matter, it needs to be countered and stopped because they only have to convince a few people to cause a ton of trouble.
Chad wolf, cellucci, and Stephen Miller are actually fascists. This is their playbook.
But the saving grace is that all three of them are crazy, and without the ability to control or limit themselves. The danger is creeping careful expansion of this. Wolf, coach, and miller don;to do careful, they are too incompetent, and will always go too far. Way too far.
I not only don’t think this is a good story for trump, but at some point it is a story that even Fox News may break with trump on. Certainly the libretarian trumpeters will not be with trump on this.
All we have to see is more and more pictures of women, vets, etc confronting “trumps goons” and then in a few weeks judges issue injunctions.
