My thoughts and prayers are with #GavinNewsom' tiny boner for #CharlieKirk. As it struggles to strain and inch towards fascism, let's show our support and wish it well on its journey to irrelevance. Soon, his worthless nub dries out, turns to dust, and evaporates with our democracy.
Ignoring a court ruling, #Trump is sending 300 #California #NationalGuard members to #Oregon after a judge blocked the admin from deploying that state’s guard to #Portland, acc/to CA Gov #GavinNewsom.
Newsom pledged Sunday to fight the move in court.

In response to #California / #GavinNewsom suit, #Trump admin argues it has no obligation to consult with or get consent of the #governor before sending in #NationalGuard #troops or #Marines.

The Trump admin defends sending ~5,000 troops to LA: "The statute empowers the President to determine what forces 'he considers necessary' to 'suppress' a 'rebellion' or to 'execute' federal 'laws'—not the Governor, & not a federal court."
California governor, #GavinNewsom is the quintessential example of the fucked up strategy that lost the election for the democrats.
We saw enormous crowds show up for Bernie and #AOC and online the vocal girl-crushes on Rep Jasmine Crockett. Hell people are still stanning for Elizabeth Warren.
Dems need to stop with this bullshit idea of trying to cater to moderates and right of center never Trumpers.
#Republican *lawmakers* & #Trump admin ofcls lined up on Sun morning to support Trump’s decision to activate 2k members of the #California #NationalGuard to #LosAngeles as part of a crackdown on #protests over #immigration enforcement.
Trump’s decision to deploy #troops came in direct opposition to the wishes of Gov #GavinNewsom & #LA Mayor #KarenBass, both #Democrats, who said that local authorities have it under control.
