The LAPD had no reason to release that statement unless it was true. All the MAGAs screaming “fake” clearly don’t know the LAPD.

I am watching closely as well... the only insurrectionists I've seen so far appear to be dressed in simulated 'military gear' they purchased on line -- and 'patriot front' khakis and balaclavas.

They’re all MAGA. Every. One. Just like 2020

I’m proud of the resistance!!!

Beware the umbrella men

It’s crazy how many times it gets proven that it’s almost always right wing extremists who cause/start the incitement & destruction & then the protestors/movement receives all the blame by legacy media & even by word of mouth by those who cant stop attacking their own side for some SM clout.

I was wondering if they might be Right Wing agitators like the ones who vandalized in Minnesota at George Floyd protesrs.

Of course they are maga and cops.

The violent ones may be in the pay of malign actors to create excuses for martial law. Would Mike Flynn do that? Yup. The sheer numbers of so called LOE suggest long term planning.

So many Fox News host are are repeating insurrection propaganda BS over and over.

💯💯💯

The American titushky are very very busy this year.

Trump's Goons again...

This is so reminiscent of Minneapolis in June 2020. The “paid agitators” were from the radical right

They haven't been active during any of the previous protests so I'm betting they couldn't resist the National Guard

We do the peaceful protesting. ICE does the violence.

YES, these RW IDIOTS/HATERS always INSERT THEMSELVES in MOST, if not all, PROTESTS! RW are cowardly AH'S, sneaky filthy POS 💩

Undoubtedly, like during George Floyd, they were known right wing extremists.

Thank you for posting the truth

This is good news.

I have been a protestor since the early 70’s and I assure you I have never resorted to violence and no one pays me. The fear of violence from all sides is greater now than I’ve ever experienced. No one was calling for it by thinly veiled dog whistles and snide remarks. Never ever a President!!

I think the default assumption in these situation is the violent actors are organized and controlled by the administration. If trump & Miller want to prove otherwise they can try, but we should assume it is them, trying to cause this violence.

Well, it did seem to be an LAPD officer who deliberately shot a journalist with a plastic bullet.

Pro-Russian useful idiots are deliberately making genuine protesters look bad.

Correct

what violences are we talking here? is this the phase where centrists absolutely want to make a distinction between peaceful and "violent" protesters? (going so far as to call those paid agitators). Don't trust cops. Don't start othering allies because they don't use the same tactics as you would.

LAPD not blaming protesters? This is huge!

Thanks. I saw the one with the man with a white back pack, black shirt being beaten and walked on by horses forced by their riders. Sickening.

Thanks.

Trump and his minions want violence, they want Americans to blame immigrants and to see ICE as protectors of justice. The truth is this is a travesty of justice and what America used to stand for. Freedom for all is now just freedom for the rich and privileged.And fuck anyway that isn't one of them.

I hope there are folks on ‘truth’ social that are calling him out

LAPD hates competition for being the biggest jackbooted thugs in California. When THEY say it's a problem, it's a freaking problem.

So what are our elected paid reps going to do about it we need our country back we pay our reps to protect democracy why are they not doing their job we need our money back Our pleas for help fall on deaf ears

Will he do anything about his mounted police trampling and hitting protestors in the ground??

Wow! Someone speaks the truth

They are trying to scare people from doing JUNE 14 NO KINGS PROTEST!

That being said, sending in the National Guard to make a show of might is likely to encourage violence, on both sides, and some people think that is what Trump wants.

This administration is itching to start a civil war 🤬🤬👎👎🤬🤬👎👎🤬🤬👎👎‼️‼️

Ok, chief…time to put up or shut up. Order your officers to protect the protesters. This is your moment, Chief McDonnell. You can stand by, or you can stand on the right side of history.

“They are creating and exacerbating the conditions that exist today.” -Gov. Newsom

It’s so true! that’s why protests are important, if anyone is looking to stand up for the country checkout the no kings protest for one in your area! www.nokings.org#map

Los Angeles police had it under control!!

Demolish ice

How much is Tramp paying these insurrectionists

here is what I see: bsky.app/profile/ogre...

Sounds just like Minneapolis again.

And the Pig cops who opened fire on the Australian reporter

8647

“Liberal America” AKA California, has the 4th largest economy in the world! Ponder that!

Where’s are feckless media on this??

Dolla dolla bills yall

Pentagon estimates sending Marines, National Guard to LA will cost $134M

👇 bsky.app/profile/jonc...

Brother, that is not what the police chief said. Here’s the full interview so your followers aren’t lied to youtu.be/1GwSaIXiNB4?...

Professional agitators. Doing the work OF THE GOP.

Justice for SEIU CA President David Huerta✊🏼

Look out for instigators www.vox.com/2020/6/3/212...

Not just shotguns. Not your grandfather's double barrel. Tactical shotguns. People who know and/or like guns will understand the difference. There is one.

youtu.be/EKnoUbDIpjo?...

An awful lot of the violence is coming from the LAPD, so maybe start there?

So…. So…… socialists did something good?! NANDAYO?!

So will he fire his own officer caught shooting the reporter with a rubber bullet on purpose then?

Only 30% of the armed forces are democrats. That’s concerning. But of the 70% who are republicans, surely there are many who stand for democracy and decency. Sadly, I thought that of Congress and the SCOTUS as well.

2… and counting probably 😠 Honestly, with these kind of actions, I don’t know why the rest of the world would even bother entertaining the idea of trading with or visiting the United States.

If he wants to be on the right side of this, he could deploy his cops against ICE and stand with the people... But he'd rather let them shoot journalists.

The same thing happened in Portland it was only a few people doing the damage. They were not from Portland and their actions were coordinated.

The Police have the jurisdiction to protect its citizens from illegal violence. So, I call upon the local police in LA to stand up and fight back against those who are acting out illegally and harming the public. Regardless if those people are citizens or those acting as a Fed Employee.

I’ve seen some video suggesting that the LAPD has targeted peaceful protesters, even journalists, with potentially lethal force. Is the Chief going to address that? Is anyone?

I woke up thinking this morning that it would be a really good thing when we get control of America again - the people run the country - if we instituted “how to protest classes” for youngsters. History of non-violent protest, history of how things have gone bad in the past, rules for protest.

Then he needs to get his OFFICERS under control and provide THEIR security vs bullying them!

Yeah but it was LAPDog horsemen trampling that dude though, right?

That's a great statement, but he and @mayor.lacity.gov need to publicly address the clear misconduct by LAPD shooting at peaceful protesters and the press, trampling them with horses, and beating fallen people while helpless on the ground.

But what about the LAPD violence against journalists and peaceful protesters? The NG in LA is unlawful and morally wrong, but so is LAPD shooting at these people, trampling them with horses and hitting them with sticks.

The Real Challenge for Decent #America is this. IF (as reported) #MAGA has Infiltrated these protests-and is Trying its best to stir up trouble, THEN *Who* is going to 1) Root Them Out, 2) Report them, 3) Arrest Them, 4) Prosecute Them, and 5) Sentence Them?

Have any cops joined the protesters? Then stfu.

Often a fine line between cops and criminals.

news copters picked up cars dropping off people mostly clothed in black after sunset when it was obvious those protesting ice had left the area, that’s when the fires & vandalism started, darkness brought out some looters who had to be shocked how fast the police arrived

What the public doesn't seem to understand is that the only motivation for the police is "obedience". If protesters don't obey, they will be arrested.

The police of California should stand against the military

Can anyone clarify how Trump called up the Cali Natl Guard without notifying @governor.ca.gov ? Does Gavin have a Cali Guard leader leaving him out of the loop? I watched Gavin's interview with @msnbc.com & I'm pretty sure he was out of the loop on the call up.

This whole situation is disgusting! By now, Americas courts should be actively working to protect its citizens from the tyranny of the evil 🌮 in their WH!!

The peaceful protesters aren’t the problem. It’s the ice goons and now it’s an unconstitutional use of California National Guard without permission and now the Marines. Now is the time for the Marines and other military to stand up and say no this is not what we do.

I drew some on him

He also debunked many of the lies being told.

Shouldn't the police have intervened on behalf of the protesters, sending a message that serious resistance was being organized?

Seriously, then why are the cops helping attack protesters? Why isn’t he doing something to control his pigs?

Bull Fucking Shit! Fuck u Chief McDonnell…u cant say one thing to the press and then YOUR officers are out there on horseback taunting and riding over protesters, and putting hands on them…so Fuck all the way off you fucking liar.

And that reporter is from Australia, so now half of Australia is pissed. He’s trying to clear up reputation & it’s not looking good. Most people I know in LA and everyone online is screaming that LA police chief has been crooked for years, so may positive change happen as a result of this.

These are American citizens. Immigrants are staying away due to fear of deportation. Americans are standing up. Trump is attacking AMERICANS June 9, 2025, 2:46 PM

Hey, it worked for the police generally, during the BLM protests-- BLM was peaceful, but many people only noticed crowds running from teargas and outsiders and agitators doing vandalism. It's the same dynamic we're seeing right now. Change the subject and fire up the frothy faithful... disgusting.

It was pretty obvious if people actually paid attention and saw the late night looting and rioting, instead of just relying on the biased "news" outlets trying to warp the story. Too much brainless consumption of manipulation targeted at those very people who cannot see the truth of the matter.

Argggh sigh, when LAPD turns out to be the "good guys" you know you are on the wrong side ( talking to you Donald J Trump)

His minions didn't get the memo, since the fascist lapd is inciting violence and committing all the violence so far

If only mainstream news would cover that aspect.

There will be those that seek to sow chaos, some present on Jan 6th didn't damage a thing, and those caught committing crimes should be arrested, except Trump is openly and unapologetically going after ANY American citizen exercising their constitutional rights and that is NOT ok.

Can’t see the cops faces well just zero in on the horses each one has distinct markings and body type! We can find who these cops are that way!!

Maga just say he’s liberal RINO. Truth doesn’t matter when you’re filled with hate.

700 marines being mobilized to LA, sh*t about to go from bad to worst, someone needs to stop this tyrant!

You know you fucked up when LAPD are defending protestors. Never seen that before in my life

There are multiple videos proving that LAPD are also engaging in acts of brutality and unprovoked violence. Every officer caught doing this needs to be fired immediately and brought up on criminal charges.

Or they may know exactly what they are doing. American versions of Putins little green men. Agents of chaos.

Yes 47 is paying people to be violent and use that as an excuse
