I was under the impression that the governors of the states was in charge of its National Guard. I vaguely remember hearing that the president asks the governors to use their states guard. If that’s not true now, when did it change? Or did the convicted felon just violate more laws?

When has Trump cared about the law? When has anybody really held his feet to the fire and put him in his place? He just keeps pushing to see how far he can get.. he's looking for the crack in the wall..

The Mexican flag flyers may be the same undercover types throwing bricks at windows in the 2020 protests. (bricks that mysteriously appeared by the pallet load at protest locations)

I think some of the confusion i’ve seen is that some were reporting he invoked the insurrection act when calling up the CA guard, which based on your previous tweets would change things, but from what you and others have been reporting it sounds like the IA was not invoked, hence confusion.

Legality is of no consequence to a serial law breaker. What matters is the feasibility of protesters prevailing. They won’t, unless protesters join them in towns and cities in every state across the country. The best way to win is to dilute the effectiveness of Trumps response.

Sigh. How many said it was definitely happening on 4/20. Why is it so hard to understand that 1.5 military personnel cannot control 350 million people across 4000 miles. I swear people repeat this just hoping they can say see I told you so.

Thank you for explaining what should happen. Of course, that may not be much help with a President who only considers what he wants to happen. Except it’s good to know when the rules are being broken, or changed to suit the President’s convenience.

A must read folks to understand the situation at hand. Don't be in the dark and make wrong assumptions. Educate yourselves and read. Adam spells it out in easy to understand language. Thank you Adam.

Some clarity is needed....lets hope no one is killed or injured but the nation looks on in horror, and insistes this bullshit stops. Hopefully the lazy assholes who did not vote, will now be motivated to do so in the future. The GOP should never again be allowed near the levers of power.

Agree 100% with you Adam. But please be aware of the following - I'm sure you are - and it doesn't make your message less credible, in fact it underscores it. bsky.app/profile/john...

Appropriately dark representation of what’s happening to our nation. TW: police ultimately fire tear gas grenades at the woman waving the American Flag. This is happening in and around LA. God save us all. 🇺🇸 #ICE #LosAngeles #SoCal #DHS

He is not honoring the decisions of the courts though! Where does that leave us? The courts are definitely coming through, the problem is his arrogant refusal to follow the law, and Republicans and msm’s refusal to make him.

I’ve been saying since before the inauguration that blue and swing st governors nd 2 disband their national guards. They can then reform them as independ st militias. This is textbook 2nd amendment wd give the forces of democracy guns 2 defend themselves, their ppl & their courts against the Nazis.

That was helpful. TU. But you're asking people to remain peaceful. Protesters, I'm betting will not be the first ones to fire a bullet that kills. Protesters did not have fire hoses, clubs, and dogs during the Civil Rights Mvt. And yet, everyone keeps saying protesters must remain peaceful.

Unless the Congress gives Trump the power 2 use the military for law enforcement, Trump will B in violation of the Posse-Comatatus Act.Trump wants 2 send troops everywhere now by declaring Martial Law under the Insurrection Act 2 suppress the No Kings Day Protests.He is having a meeting @CampDavid.

I may not have the date correct, but Kennedy federalized troops in Alabama in 1958 (?) to facilitate black students attending the University of Alabama against the wishes of Governor George Wallace.

Hi @adamkinzinger.bsky.social thank you for that and your patriotism. There are many reasons to #ReclaimOurFlag from Trump/MAGA who have stolen and pervert its aspirational and unifying powers. Here’s one more… bsky.app/profile/recl...

Protest is patriotic. Pro-tip: Fly an American flag 🇺🇸 as you protest. Here’s another reason: “people don’t want to shoot protestors they identify with” h/t @risabrooks12.bsky.social Los Angeles 2025 Alabama 1965 #ReclaimOurFlag from Trump/MAGA who have stolen and perverted its symbolism.

Your saying trump is lying about having the authority to call them out. He also lied about Medicare. Told Johnson to cut it. Now we get death panels to determine who gets treatment and who dies. I know of one senator who can determine that everybody dies.

What's going on is chilling to the spine. Intimidation, bullying, abuse of power and erratically retaliation after the Musk fallout and the TACO memes. Thank you Adam for explaining and helping keep us calm. "We Shall Over Come".

Boycott ABC News. They suspended Terry Moran for using freedom of speech. #resistance #freedomofspeech #fightforourrights #fuckdonaldtrump #fuckstephenmiller #boycottabcnews #standwithterrymoran #democracy

Except our shitty SCOTUS gave him immunity. His mantra and every lousy, lawless thing he does for the next 3.5 years points squarely to "make them litigate."

This Nazi regime is deliberating provoking people so the Traitor and his co-conspirators can declare some kind of fake emergency then suspend elections and the Constitution. It is an attack on democracy and the United States by traitors from within. A clear and present danger.

Not sure about the National Guard attacking US Citizens. Cant imagine our distinguished, honorable, respected soldiers following unconstitutional orders requiring treasonous, Nazi. Gestapo tactics. As we know, "Crimes against Humanity." Nuremburg, Geneva Convention, Oaths of allegiance. Jesus Christ

Question. When you say, if the insurrection act is invoked and they ALL have law enforcement abilities... Do you mean just in California, or the entire United States of America? Thanks!

The problem is that this regime does not care about the rules or the Constitution. They. Lie. All. The. Time. So they will lie again about these peaceful protests in order to invoke the Insurrection Act. Where are those who can stop this president from killing the innocent protesters???

Distraction (as usual) from his: - Musk feud - Musk’s Epstein comment - his failing tariff self inflicted wound to the economy - Big Ugly bill - and perhaps a warning not to “rain” on his birthday military parade?
