This is what Kristi Noem said, and they are using the US military to exert their will.

She should be removed from office for that statement.

Huh, that is exactly what Hitler did to Bavaria.

They should not be there. The fact that you think the show of force, this unnecessary show of force, isn't problematic is terrifying

Why does this trigger you? They are there to protect buildings. That makes them very easy to avoid.

What a total waste of time for our Marine corps. We pay our taxes to have a fighting force like the Marines and insult them by assigning guard duty in Los Angeles against some twerps throwing rocks and some home Depot workers? It's embarrassing demoralizing and also dangerous.

The Marines aren’t exactly busy these days.

Marines did not sign up to go out and terrorize Americans. They signed up to protect this country.

Way to take the few and the proud and likely make them even fewer and unproud.

All enemies, foreign and domestic.
People are violently attacking the government, the Marines are being called in to protect the government workers.

Domestic is for civil war, like the Confederates. Not freaking protesters. If this were the Biden administration sending Marines in to deal with the hateful and abusive assault at abortion clinics, you'd be horrified.

You are letting your political leanings keep you from seeing how bad this escalation is.

Just try to imagine this was happening from the other side.

Regular police are good for abortion clinics. However, here Newsom and Bass had the local law enforcement refuse to help.

What world are you living in? The LAPD has this handled fine and put out several statements for aht effect. His statement is out there everywhere.

And the police were very present.

So my question is do you actually believe this? Or are you purposely spreading lies?

DP. It’s absolutely mind boggling that you claim the LAPD has “has this handled fine.” We all have eyes. JFC.

You may have eyes, but what are they looking at? Did you watch the Mayor's speech today? How many square feet of LA have you seen today? Who have you talked to or listened to?

They absolutely should be there to act as a deterrent against a mob mentality that would destroy property our tax dollars have paid for, such as a $2,000 printer that sells at retail for $79.99

Are we now going to send federalized Natl Guard and regular military troops to football and bball games that make people go nuts? I mean, if it is just about damage and riots and not the political content, should handle the same way, right?

Right? We are talking about a few blocks of LA, and a tiny fraction of people who are misbehaving and who are being arrested for it by LAPD. It's embarrassing to send Marines in for that.

You don't have eyes. You have the same scene repeated over and over on a loop.

Not to put J6 in the same category as the others. But whether it is Rs or Ds, Trump is the only president who repeatedly instigates chaos and does absolutely nothing to tamp it down. In fact, he adds fuel to the flames every time.

The George Floyd riots in Minneapolis: Democrat mayor, Democrat Police Chief, Democrat Governor. So tell me why that was Trump’s fault?

Doesn’t it seem like maybe Democrats just love to protest & burn stuff & loot stores, and the reason doesn’t matter?

Yes it was all Trump. Go back and see what he said. He escalated the situation. You f’ers do not care about the country. All you do is push out your worn out racist propaganda.

Minneapolis arsons started by leftist... nope, actually by a right wing Boogaloo agitator. Look up "umbrella man" who showed up at various locations, smashed storefronts with a hammer and set businesses on fire. He turned out to be right wing, not a Floyd protester at all, just someone who wanted the violence to escalate and make the left look bad.

They never did actually identify the man ( I dug into this a few weeks ago because there were some people tagged by internet users as the guy) but I do agree his only purpose was to escalate violence. In the video of him smashing windows at Autozone and then leaving the scene to disappear he is methodical, deliberate, and cold, not some impassioned protester or even opportunistic vandal.

Millions of Americans have served to prevent US military use against American citizens from happening. It would be a horrifying insult to every person that has ever served in the armed forces.

If American citizens are breaking the law and damaging property my tax dollars built and maintain then I say to the Marines, “Kick their stinking lawless brains out.”

You should read this letter to the editor of my local paper from a Marine stationed in Turkey:

The choice to serve my country in the U.S. Marine Corps remains the proudest of my life. During my enlistment, I served as a rifleman in an infantry company within 2nd Battalion, 7th Marines, 1st Marine Division – the exact same unit that President Trump has deployed into Los Angeles against the American people.

This decision from the president is not only a direct threat to democracy and in my opinion a significant step towards autocracy, but also a direct betrayal of the young men and women who serve in the Marine Corps and the other branches of the U.S. military.


President Trump did not send in military police; he deployed an infantry battalion. Practically speaking, an infantry unit is not trained for law enforcement and crowd control, nor should it be. The mission of the Marine Corps rifle squad, as every Marine in Los Angeles knows, is to “locate, close with, and destroy the enemy by fire and maneuver, or repel the enemy’s assault by fire and close combat.” Consider for a moment what that actually means. From day one of bootcamp, all of their training is geared towards that one mission, as should be the case. It is a harsh mission that Marines excel at carrying out, and from time to time it is necessary – but never in American streets. Officials in the Trump administration undoubtedly know the psychological effect of statements like, “send in the Marines.” It delivers a clear message.

American veterans need to send our own message as well. We need to speak up. Significant time and space in podcasts and opinion sections in the near future will be taken up by pundits, legal scholars and academics highlighting the historic dangers our democracy is now in. This is a good thing, but frankly many of them will not come from backgrounds that allow them to understand the true emotional depth of this betrayal of American military ethos. Because of that, I believe it is necessary for American veterans who in their hearts know that this is wrong, to lead by example, peacefully exercise their First Amendment rights and organize in a politically significant way in order to take a stand. You can take off a uniform, but you cannot take back an oath. The oath we all swore now requires us to say something.

Despite this crisis and perhaps ironically, my greatest source of faith at present is in the very service members being deployed in American streets who swore that same oath, not in service to any man but to the Constitution of the United States of America.

Semper Fidelis,

Shut the f up. Nothing you have said is true.

DP. It’s ALL true, you utter moron. Gaslighting anyone who condemns violent protests is not a good look.
