[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The current chaos isn’t a surprise in a city and state that too often tolerate lawlessness. Still, it wasn’t clear early Sunday whether deploying troops was necessary or would be constructive. But asked late Sunday if the National Guard were needed, L.A. police chief Jim McDonnell responded: “Well, looking at tonight, this thing has gotten out of control.”

… Mr. Newsom said the President’s calling in the National Guard is an “unmistakable step toward authoritarianism,” which is transparent hyperbole. The rarely used law Mr. Trump invoked allows such a deployment when “there is a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.” Rioters are certainly rebelling against the authority of immigration enforcement.

The airwaves and social media are saturated with footage of protesters waving Mexican flags atop burning cars, carrying signs claiming California is “Stolen land” and chanting “We don’t want ICE or police!” Mr. Newsom really is living in La La Land if he thinks Americans will side with such radicals over Mr. Trump.
