So let me get this straight. Trump called out the CA National Guard in L.A. but he blocked the use [View all]

… of the D.C. National Guard via acting Sec. of Defense Christopher Miller who gave a stand down
order 2 days before Jan. 6, 2021 extremely violent and illegal storming of the Capitol Building by
Trump’s MAGA supporters who believed his lies that the election was stolen from him in 2020.

This is a dictatorship kind of thing.

BTW I believe Trump and Stephen Miller don’t really care about illegal immigrants but
want to provoke violence so they can declare martial law.

Trump knows he lost in 2016, 2020, and in 2024 and he and Miller, Bannon, Bondi,
Noem, and that bag of hair the Senator from Tennessee are all in on killing Americans
who disagree them.
