@pbsnews: Around 700 U.S. Marines will head to Los Angeles to help quell days of clashes between protesters and immigration officers, U.S. officials said Monday. They'll join National Guard troops who were deployed to the city by President Donald Trump over the weekend. In a memo to the Pentagon and attorney general, Trump said he acted under a rarely used law because the demonstrations “constitute a form of rebellion against the authority of the government of the United States.” On social media, California Gov. Gavin Newsom objected, saying the guard’s presence would “escalate tensions" and "erode public trust." Newsom later said he planned to file a lawsuit against Trump. PBS News’ John Yang interviewed Democratic Rep. Nanette Barragán. Her congressional district includes Paramount, California, a heavily Latino city where immigration authorities conducted a raid outside a Home Depot. “This is more of the president manufacturing something that is not there,” Barragán told Yang. “He is acting like a dictator. ... This is his mass deportation effort, which is not focused on fighting criminals. And I think that is one of the reasons you are seeing people protest. They are protesting mass deportation.”#news #pbsnews #trump #trumpnews #losangeles #nationalguard

EVEN if that's the case, we are allowed to rebel against our govts authority if we believe it unjust. That's how we even became a country. Its what we boast to all other countries constantly. But now when we do so, it's terrorism. 😑

TRUMP himself said the president shouldn’t call in the national guard without the governors call. Only the marines if it was a violent insurrection (which he said it wasn’t) he did this on purpose people. Wake up

They make a rebellion sound bad (in the right context) when it is in the Declaration of Independence that people have a right to when the government doesn’t serve the people

Yes it does , the lapd is doing riot control and who controls the lapd? The mayor of Los Angeles, so she’s claiming one thing and doing the complete opposite, so Los Angeles is no longer a sanctuary city. This rioters are all paid by the democrats, they are antifa and blm gauging

End the “War game” that the narcissist is playing. Trump wants this attention. The only way to win is to stop playing the game. Don’t give the narcissist power!
