The leadership of California describing what the government is doing as "sowing chaos" is infuriating. It's going beyond double speak and doubles down into full blown don't believe your lying eyes rhetoric. 'Normality is rioting and attacking federal agents. Chaos is going to work while the federal government does it's job and those who attack them are jailed.'. Newsom and The LA mayor need to be arrested and made examples of. They are the very definition of a government official being derelict in their duties and in defiance of the law; the government has full justification to do it. Sending in the national guard is a nice gesture but it doesn't discourage this kind of behavior from leadership in other blue #resist cities like Chicago or New York.

Hmm...If they are not US citizens they should be treated as enemy combatants.

It is way beyond time for Newsom to be arrested for dereliction of duty. Then head to New York and NJ. By their actions, or lack there of, harm has come to citizens of the United States by actors of a foreign nation. There needs to be real consequences.

If you or I break federal law we go to jail. Governors and state level officials should receive no special treatment.
 
Beat the leftist trash to a pulp and do it in the rest of the country too. The world needs someone to lead by example, the West needs to be shown what to do with the red/rainbow/negro filth.

LA is burning and being shown for the shitpit it is, illegals are being shown they do not belong here, and ICE will be able to nab them for very good reasons (arson, theft, assault)

Illegals? My friend, legal immigrants can have their visas revoked and be sent home if they commit crimes.

The government is sowing chaos by enforcing laws that leftists don't like, which forces leftists to riot. See, it's all the government's fault.

This doesn't even work because the jan 6th people were denied trials and held in prison for 4 years, so at a minimum these people need to be held in prison without bail for 4 years

No, give them quick and speedy trials so that they get the felony and don't get case dismissed for time served. These are serial reoffenders, so they'll break any suspended sentences or parole, and get slapped with harsher sentences next time rather than another slap on the wrist.

You have to be careful where you lock them up. The last time the feds arrested a bunch of antifa rioters, the Marxist judge let them all out of jail and ordered the government to pay them damages.
 
Trump's memo activating the California National Guard:

Department of Defense Security for the Protection of Department of Homeland Security Functions​

Presidential Memoranda
June 7, 2025

MEMORANDUM FOR THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

THE SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY

SUBJECT: Department of Defense Security for the Protection of Department of Homeland Security Functions

Numerous incidents of violence and disorder have recently occurred and threaten to continue in response to the enforcement of Federal law by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other United States Government personnel who are performing Federal functions and supporting the faithful execution of Federal immigration laws. In addition, violent protests threaten the security of and significant damage to Federal immigration detention facilities and other Federal property. To the extent that protests or acts of violence directly inhibit the execution of the laws, they constitute a form of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.

In light of these incidents and credible threats of continued violence, by the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard under 10 U.S.C. 12406 to temporarily protect ICE and other United States Government personnel who are performing Federal functions, including the enforcement of Federal law, and to protect Federal property, at locations where protests against these functions are occurring or are likely to occur based on current threat assessments and planned operations. Further, I direct and delegate actions as necessary for the Secretary of Defense to coordinate with the Governors of the States and the National Guard Bureau in identifying and ordering into Federal service the appropriate members and units of the National Guard under this authority. The members and units of the National Guard called into Federal service shall be at least 2,000 National Guard personnel and the duration of duty shall be for 60 days or at the discretion of the Secretary of Defense. In addition, the Secretary of Defense may employ any other members of the regular Armed Forces as necessary to augment and support the protection of Federal functions and property in any number determined appropriate in his discretion.

To carry out this mission, the deployed military personnel may perform those military protective activities that the Secretary of Defense determines are reasonably necessary to ensure the protection and safety of Federal personnel and property The Secretary of Defense shall consult with the Attorney General and the Secretary of Homeland Security prior to withdrawing any personnel from any location to which they are sent. The Secretaries of Defense and Homeland Security may delegate to subordinate officials of their respective Departments any of the authorities conferred upon them by this memorandum.

DONALD J. TRUMP

I get the feeling that we are barreling into a greater Zoot suit riot situation where dealing with "upatriotic" people just becomes the mask for a race war. As much as SoCal has been dragged down by illegal immigration, surely there is a better way of going about dealing with illegals than trying to Order 66 every hispanic in the city
