“We are not going away,” #KristiNoem said, referring to the #NationalGuard & #DHS presence in #LosAngeles this week amid #protests against #Trump’s sweeping & drastic #deportation mission in the city. 🚨”We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists & the burdensome leadership that this governor & that this mayor have placed on this country & what they have tried to insert into the city.”🚨

Just before Sen. #AlexPadilla (D-CA) was forcibly removed from a #DHS *press briefing* [#propaganda session], forced to the ground & then handcuffed for ASKING A QUESTION, DHS Secy [dog killer] #KristiNoem was in the middle of making a bizarre but crucial point.

(Apparently, per #Noem, #IRS agents have been there in person working to determine what groups are organizing the #protests in the city! Normal stuff!) She then said that the #NationalGuard & #DHS were working to “make every single community great again & safe again” before lamenting that the people of #LA were “suffering” “under the policies of Governor Newsom & under the policies of Mayor Bass.”

The statement said the quiet part out loud: the #military was there to “liberate” a city from its democratically elected governor & mayor.(It was also not entirely clear what “burdensome” actions she was referring to.)

Leading up to this moment in the press briefing, #KristiNoem spent several minutes thanking the #NationalGuard, #FBI, local #LawEnforcement & the #IRS (??) for their efforts on the ground in #LA.

Those remarks combined with the liberation speak amount to a pretty pellucid admission of the #Trump admin’s ultimate vision here.…much of the effort to deploy #troops to #LA to clamp down on mostly #peaceful #protesters in the city can be seen through the lens of the president’s months-long effort to punish blue cities & states.

#Trump can keep #NationalGuard deployed to #LosAngeles for now, appeals court rules

US appeals court late Thurs allowed Trump to maintain his deployment of National Guard #troops in #LA amid #protests over aggressive #immigration enforcement, temporarily pausing a lower court's ruling blocking the mobilization.
The #9thCircuit Court of Appeals' decision does not mean the court will ultimately agree w/Trump, but it means he will maintain command of the guard for now.

The State of #California pleaded with the #9thCircuit not to immediately stay Judge Breyer's ruling -- 6 minutes after the court had.

King Trump Crushed As Judge Returns Control Of National Guard To Gavin Newsom

"Chinese analysts have been closely monitoring the #LosAngeles #unrest, which they said had been exploited by #US President Donald #Trump for #PoliticalTheatre, jeopardising public #safety and #stability. (..) Lacking diplomatic wins, Trump may pivot to harsher domestic tactics to assert strength, risking deeper #crises, according to Yang."

Err .. @EUCommission - seems you can't duck away from a public statement any more.

Or #China will voice "grave concern" first.

So, let me get this straight. A California senator started to ask questions the DHS Secretary didn't want to answer and was *forceably removed* from the press conference? A press conference about DHS activity in the state he represents, about his constituents being disappeared.

Other than the pure racism, the point of immigrant crackdowns (and Congress blocking immigration reform since Reagan) is to maintain a large highly exploitable labor force.

That's why ICE is hitting up day laborers at Home Depot parking lots and small Los Angeles businesses, and not, for example, shutting down the entire US meat and dairy industries which have relied on that exploitable labor for decades.
