He, Arturo, was also part of the “peace keeping unit”. I’m at a complete loss for words as to how there were “peace keepers” who weren’t 100% vetted were allowed and possibly encouraged by the organizers to carry guns. Not a big fan of the cops, but SLCPD. Did a good job during the BLM protests. Allowed protesting and reacted once anarchists (don’t even get me started on how the American black clad anarchist movement has zero understanding of what anarchy actually stands for, traditionally it was a labor movement) started their bs. Whoever in the rally organization signed off on this, might also be in some serious trouble. Total malfeasance and incompetence, led to the death of a sympathizer.

California is the largest sanctuary state in America.
What does that mean?
The Governor has ordered every single police department and sheriffs office to shield criminal illegal aliens from removal.
In a normal state, when an illegal alien is arrested, they are run through a federal database. If it hits that they are illegal or deportable, ICE asks the police or sheriffs to turn them over to ICE when their incarceration is complete.
In California, when ICE lodges this “detainer” it is refused and the criminal alien is released back onto the street to endlessly reoffend.
California has more criminal aliens than any other state in the US, by far. And each and every one of them can victimize Americans freely knowing they will never by turned over by authorities to ICE.

Yesterday began with the horrific news that a gunman had shot two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses in what Minnesota governor Tim Walz said appeared to be a “politically motivated assassination.” State representative Melissa Hortman, who was the top Democrat in the Minnesota House, and her husband, Mark, both died in the attack at their home in Brooklyn Park, a city near Minneapolis. The gunman also shot Democratic Minnesota state senator John Hoffman nine times and his wife, Yvette, eight at their home in Champlin. The hospital reports they are in stable condition after surgery.
Law enforcement officers encountered the suspected gunman, 57-year-old Vance Boelter, coming out of Hortman’s house. He was dressed as a police officer. Officers exchanged gunfire with him before he fled, leaving behind his vehicle, which looked much like a police car. In it was a list of dozens of people he wanted to kill. They were mostly Democrats or people connected to abortion rights efforts. Law enforcement officers captured Boelter tonight.
MAGA Republicans are working hard to identify Boelter with what Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) called “Marxism” and Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH) called “the extreme left,” but as investigative journalist Phil Williams of NewsChannel 5 Nashville notes, public databases show Boelter was in the past a registered Republican. His evangelical religion and his anti-LGBTQ and anti-abortion stances reflect MAGA positions. Boelter’s roommate told reporters that Boelter was a “strong” supporter of President Trump.
Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) noted that MAGA has been “bathed in political violence” for the last five years. Trump’s pardoning of the January 6 rioters, including those convicted of extreme violence, “became a clear endorsement of violence committed in his name.” Trump has encouraged violence and cozied up to brutal dictators, while MAGA has fetishized guns. When he celebrates violence, unhinged people listen. Murphy points out that while people of all political persuasions commit violence, no Democratic leader encourages violence as a political norm the way Trump and MAGA have done, citing “a straight line from Jan 6 to the pardons to the assault on Sen[ator] Padilla to Minnesota.”
After the shootings, Andrew Solender of Axios reported that lawmakers of both parties are concerned about their own safety as political violence increases. The Minnesota attacks happened just days after Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s security guard shoved Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) to the ground and handcuffed him after he asked a question. This assault sparked apparent fury among the Democrats on Capitol Hill as they challenged their Republican colleagues—largely unsuccessfully—to speak up against the assault on a senator.
The entire Minnesota delegation to the U.S. Congress issued a joint statement on politically motivated shootings. Democrats and Republicans together wrote: “Today we speak with one voice to express our outrage, grief, and condemnation of this horrible attack on public servants. There is no place in our democracy for politically-motivated violence. We are praying for John and Yvette’s recovery and we grieve the loss of Melissa and Mark with their family, colleagues, and Minnesotans across the state. We are grateful for law enforcement’s swift response to the situation and continued efforts.”
After that start to the day, the country turned to the “No Kings” protests. In a dramatic rejection of Trump’s consolidation of power, at least five million Americans turned out for peaceful protests across the country. Cities turned out huge numbers of protesters at more than 2,000 planned events, and small towns, including those in Republican-dominated states, also boasted rallies. The mood was festive as people held signs with anti-Trump and pro-American images and slogans and sang Woody Guthrie’s famous American anthem, “This Land Is Your Land.” American flags were everywhere.
In contrast to the huge turnout for the protests, the military parade in Washington, D.C., was a bust. Although Trump had claimed it would be a celebration of the 250th anniversary of the American Army, it was also his 79th birthday and was widely interpreted primarily as a celebration of that occasion. Trump has wanted a parade since 2017, when he viewed the traditional Bastille Day military parade in Paris. At the time, he told reporters: “It was one of the greatest parades I’ve ever seen…. We’re going to have to try to top it.”
But organizers had had only two months to arrange for the parade, and the result was badly organized, with relatively few people turning out, especially after forecasts of storms that evening. Far from the crisp marching of the military parades that Trump seemed to want to top, the U.S. soldiers appeared to shuffle, leading to a social media debate over whether they had been ordered to march in an “at ease march” instead of a more rigorous step, or whether they were silently protesting. Photographers recorded empty bleachers and thin crowds. Few Republican lawmakers attended, but cameras caught Trump looking miserable and Secretary of State Marco Rubio yawning.
The contrast between the protests and the military parade suggested an important shift in political culture. The momentum and the joy, as well as the American flags, were on the side of those protesting Trump’s growing authoritarianism. Trump looked weak and discouraged, and the crowds were clearly on the side of the protesters. Today, social media, including a Russian account, got into the act of making fun of Trump's military parade.
At the Philadelphia Inquirer, Will Bunch noted that “the flag is mightier than the tank.”
The rejection Trump faced yesterday, podcaster Jack Hopkins noted, “was a big tub of rock salt poured on his wounds of lifelong insecurity.” That profound injury to Trump’s sense of self braced observers for a lashing out of epic proportions as he tries to demonstrate that he is, in fact, powerful.
We got that anger and fear in a social media post at 8:43 p.m. tonight. In a post almost certainly not written by Trump, his account backed off on Trump’s recent retreat from mass deportations. Instead, the account said “ICE Officers are herewith ordered, by notice of this TRUTH, to do all in their power to achieve the very important goal of delivering the single largest Mass Deportation Program in History.”
The account then declared war on Democrats. The day after a gunman shot two Democratic lawmakers and their spouses in their homes, Trump’s account posted:
“[W]e must expand efforts to detain and deport Illegal Aliens in America’s largest Cities, such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York, where Millions upon Millions of Illegal Aliens reside. These, and other such Cities, are the core of the Democrat Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens. These Radical Left Democrats are sick of mind, hate our Country, and actually want to destroy our Inner Cities—And they are doing a good job of it! There is something wrong with them. That is why they believe in Open Borders, Transgender for Everybody, and Men playing in Women’s Sports—And that is why I want ICE, Border Patrol, and our Great and Patriotic Law Enforcement Officers, to FOCUS on our crime ridden and deadly Inner Cities, and those places where Sanctuary Cities play such a big role. You don’t hear about Sanctuary Cities in our Heartland!”
The post promised ICE that “REAL Americans are cheering you on every day” and urged them to “reverse the tide of Mass Destruction Migration that has turned once Idyllic Towns into scenes of Third World Dystopia.” It doubled down on the neo-Nazi idea of “REMIGRATION” and concluded: “To ICE, FBI, DEA, ATF, the Patriots at Pentagon and the State Department, you have my unwavering support. Now go, GET THE JOB DONE! DJT”
Will Trump’s demands swing people behind him? Americans have already turned against Trump’s handling of immigration and deportations by significant margins. G. Elliott Morris of Strength in Numbers summarized the polls from June 9–13. Answering the question “Do you approve of the way the president is handling…immigration?” respondents for YouGov/Economist were the only ones to produce a majority—of just four points—saying yes. For AP-NORC, Quinnipiac, and Washington Post/GMU, the answer was no by as much as 15 points. On every other question dealing with immigration, more people opposed Trump’s policies than supported them by as much as 16 points.
Trump’s other policies are underwater—meaning more people oppose them than approve of them—as well. Only 27% of registered voters support the Republicans’ budget reconciliation bill, while 53% oppose it. As for Trump himself, a Quinnipiac Poll from June 11 showed that 38% of registered voters approve of the way he is handling the job of the presidency, while 54% disapprove. Only 30% of registered voters approved “strongly” of the way he is handling the job, while 49% strongly disapprove.
While Trump and his loyalists are trying to project an image of invincibility, their actual power seems to be faltering.
Ten years ago tomorrow, on June 16, 2015, Trump rode down the escalator at Trump Tower to a lobby filled with extras, to announce he was running for president. One reporter called his speech, in which he claimed that Mexico was sending criminals and rapists to the United States, "eccentric."
Are you suggesting the Governor is enforcing state law (Senate Bill 54), or that he is going above and beyond?Quote:

From Alt National Parks page:
We’re honored to announce a final count of 13.14 million in attendance across 2,300+ No Kings protests nationwide. It took a little longer to finalize due to the sheer scale, but the turnout was historic!
So far, 71 MAGA agitators have been arrested, with 62 additional investigations still underway. We’re actively reviewing online threats and working on escalating where needed. If you see something, say something.
3.8% of the entire population - that's impressive...Quote:

Data guy who put in the work: https://www.gelliottmorris.com/p/no-...utm_medium=web
Yesterday he updated estimate to 4.2-7 million.
https://bsky.app/profile/gelliottmor.../3lrnxcuwbgc2n
6Mil is about 2 percent of the population over the age of 18. Another 1-5% minimum will be added over the the next year is my guess.
As Morris said, his estimates would make Kings Day protests the second largest - possibly largest- single day protest in US history. (2017 Women's March had an estimated 3.3-5.6 million.)
It was a big protest!

Details on the phone itself are sketchy. The product page includes what appears to be a Photoshopped image of a brushed gold phone with a
"T1" logo and US flag on the back. The triple camera layout appears similar to recent iPhone Pro models at first glance, but the lenses are strangely spaced, and there doesn't appear to be any camera flash.
There are numerous errors on the page, from a processor section that doesn't list a processor, RAM that's described as storage, and the boast of a "5000mAh long life camera," when it presumably means the battery.

Grifters gonna grift.
You can tell how awful this weekend was for Trump by looking at this sickening post by Ashley Hinson, our local maga representative. Always revert to red meat for the base. Hate sells, or at least is used to, no matter how disgusting.
By awful I am including the super embarrassing parade, the unraveling of any semblance of stability in the Middle East because he tore up the Iran deal and his incoherent foreign policy, and the large pro democracy American flag waving patriotic anti kings rally.
Not a peep about the political killings in Minnesota. Hits close to home for this constituent of hers since I once lived and owned a home in Champlin. Crickets. Just pride in her child's blooming intolerance.

Tulsi Gabbard has announced they are looking into who funded the No Kings rallies.
Imma guess her investigation determines it was George Soros.
I'd like to know who funded the rally in Truckee because I got stiffed.
10 U.S.C. § 12406 – Invasion, Rebellion, or Obstruction of Law
This authorizes the President to activate the Guard if federal law is obstructed—as it clearly was in Los Angeles. Rioters targeted ICE agents. Local leaders refused to intervene. Enforcement was physically blocked.
The Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C. §§ 251-255)
Used by presidents from Jefferson to Eisenhower to George H.W. Bush, this law allows the use of federal troops and the National Guard to suppress insurrection, enforce federal law, and restore public order—even over state objection. Eisenhower invoked it in 1957 to enforce school desegregation in Arkansas. Bush used it in 1992 during the Los Angeles riots, federalizing California Guard units and deploying active-duty forces after local authorities lost control.
If the violence continues, President Trump has the legal authority to go further. Under 10 U.S.C. § 252 (Insurrection Act), he can use “such of the militia and the armed forces… to suppress the insurrection” when local officials cannot—or will not—do so. And if California’s political leadership refuses federal orders, more units can be nationalized under § 12406, removing command from Sacramento entirely.
seems you left nuts still have a ways to go as far as going batty on what the president has constitutional rights to do. i sincerely hope you do that, it is quite entertaining watching you guys go totally nuts and be completely wrong at the same time.
Keep reading asshole:
Breyer then reads from 10 U.S. Code § 12406:
“Orders for these purposes shall be issued through the governors of the States.”
He emphasizes:
"It says ‘shall.’ Not 'may.' Not 'might.'"
https://bsky.app/profile/klasfeldrep.../3lrgs3cbjh22t
Quote- At this early stage of the proceedings, the Court must determine whether the President followed the congressionally mandated procedure for his actions. He did not.
His actions were illegal both exceeding the scope of his statutory authority and violating the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. He must therefore return control of the California National Guard to the Governor of the State of California forthwith.

10 U.S. Code § 12406 outlines the circumstances under which the President can call the National Guard into federal service.

The President can specify the period of service, and members can be required to serve both inside and outside the United States during that time.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Circumstances for Calling the National Guard:
The President can federalize the National Guard in three situations:
Invasion or Threatened Invasion: If the US, or any of its territories, is invaded or in danger of invasion by a foreign nation.
Rebellion or Threatened Rebellion: If there is a rebellion or threat of rebellion against the US government.
Executing Federal Laws: If the President is unable to execute the laws of the United States with regular forces
looks like the president is fine when executing federal law as immigration is
Why can’t he enforce the laws without them? I call BS

Tulsis goal is probably to imply that the King marchers are Soros-funded or some other billionare (ironic, no?) and it was not a real protest or movement against her King Trump. The fact our government is manipulatively trying to discredit Americans free speech and contrarian opinions (in this case and in many other cases under Trump) is sadly exactly what Russia does in their country. Its not about starting an investigation in order to uphold the law, for Tulsi, its an investigation to create propoganda for conservatives.

12406. National Guard in Federal service: call
Whenever-
(1) the United States, or any of the Commonwealths or possessions, is invaded or is in danger of invasion by a foreign nation;
(2) there is a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States; or
(3) the President is unable with the regular forces to execute the laws of the United States;
the President may call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard of any State in such numbers as he considers necessary to repel the invasion, suppress the rebellion, or execute those laws. Orders for these purposes shall be issued through the governors of the States or, in the case of the District of Columbia, through the commanding general of the National Guard of the District of Columbia
In case you missed it, I will repeat it for you:
Orders for these purposes shall be issued through the governors of the States or, in the case of the District of Columbia, through the commanding general of the National Guard of the District of Columbia
The parade was a nice history of the Army. Here's an alternate version:
