Posse Comitatus Posse Comi-SHMATUS!

He looks so dangerous in those shorts What a bunch of bs

Step by step, they can convince themselves that they're still in the river. It's not behind them, yet. This is just one step closer... right? Surely, not yet.

It's great facial recognition technology has advanced to the point that we'll be able to identify all the fascists participants in this disgrace.

All the 'authorities' in this country have jumped the shark. They want to put us in cages

Dictatorship

Call this what is is, Reuters. The world is watching.

Why are the Marines and the National Guard deployed now but not when Trump's people were attacking the peaceful transfer of power?

I'm seeing enough faces here for some white hats to do some doxxing

Clear violation of Posse Comitatus Act

Same. What a disgrace.

Making sure we know the US Constitution is dead.

So much for oaths, and keeping honor clean.

Goddamn, the expressions of glee on the faces of those cops is absolutely the most terrifying thing in this picture. That poor kid.

We are so fucked

@lazytato.bsky.social aren’t they supposed to leave?!

Shameful.

doesn't matter, they aren't cops and this is illegal

Crossed a yellow tape going to Veteran affairs.

DoD confirms the detention of US Army veteran Marcos Leao, a naturalized American citizen, at the Wilshire Federal Building by US Marines in Los Angeles today. The Posse Comitatus Act generally forbids the U.S. military, including the National Guard, from taking part in civilian law enforcement.

Next step towards totalitarian regime in the former bulwark of democracy called USA 😱

As someone watching this from within the US, I'm also astonished—and disgusted, and furious. I don't even recognize my country and I'm afraid basically all the time now. These are dark days.

Unfortunately, we have a tremendous (derogatory) history of installing the wrong people.

For months I have been waiting for someone to point this out.

The United States government has Netanyahu's fist up America's arse and there ain't a thing we can do about it, because the American government is captured, mate. That's what's going on. The judiciary and conservative party are in the grip of Israel.

Watching it from close up, I do too.

Posse Comitas Act prohibits the U.S. military from acting as police. Turmp doesn't care one bit about laws.

It's illegal for the US military to act as police. Posse Comitas act. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...

"Detained" means you are free to go after a brief time. This is an arrest, even if technicaly transferred to the local police to make the "arrest". The organization actually removing the person's freedom of action is the military.

Insane.

Suspicious. Could this be evidence that this will be done responsibly for the court case? MAGA will also repeat it as such. They arrest their own as an example.

Change Detain to Arrested then you will have it perfect. What they did falls under the legal definition of arrest. Detention has a separate legal meaning.

Do they want to go back and beyond Vietnam levels of disrespect for the military?

The guy is a veteran!!!

😡

Fascists only doing fascist things. As long as they are unopposed. How long will Americans bear this situation? Governments ARE afraid of their people. ALWAYS! Time to fight back and fight hard! Mercilessly. Revolution starts NOW. Thank you for your attention on this matter.

He is a veteran arrested for trying to enter department of vet affairs building

Disturbing and disappointing

RIP US Constitution

tell that to the regime

Posse comitatus

My response when I saw this earlier. “The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals won’t be having any of this. I expect its take down of Trump to be brutal.”

Best wishes from ❤️ Europe To all #Freedom loving #decent #tolerant #rational #thinking #Americans who didn't Vote for #Putin's #Convicted #OrangeTurd #DonaldTrump Happy No Kings Day Stay safe & Protest the Hell Out of Today so the entire World can hear you all. www.qasimrashid.com/p/13-rules-t...

For the record the Marines detained is a US Army veteran.

Could someone possibly have told them to detain people of color? Why else should they have grabbed this veteran civilian who showed no signs of aggression or flight? I am ashamed of whomever gave these orders, and sorry for the Marines who were angered by this assault on their image.

In direct violation of Posse Commitatus Act. A LAW that prevents OUR military from being used against OUR people as police.

Turns out the guy was a vet and suppose to be there. The guy made the mistake of being black.

When is this Marine going to be dishonorably discharged?

This is who our soldiers are. We were wrong to respect them.

Isn’t it a little weird there aren’t any ICE defectors?

Constitutional violation. Following unlawful orders. This is going to court. Military personnel are arrested and incarcerated all the time. Those people are fucking stupid for following any orders to detain people.

Rubicon, Reuters.

#Immigrants #ICE #Marines laws have always existed for picking up actual criminals, illegal or otherwise—look behind the curtain 🇺🇸👀 #Fascism

How were marines instructed to avoid posse comitatus?

Detained for passing yellow tape

as of now about 45 minutes into the feed

This is just horrible.

Thank you!

What an absolute disgrace.

Marines targeting Americans... Total loss of respect for our Armed Services.. Trump needs to be taken to The Hague.

US Marines ILLEGALLY carry out first known detention of civilians in Lus Angeles. Words matter. You would think a news organization would understand that!!

Congratulations America👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 You elected a man who got your army to turn against its own citizens! Pop the champagne for fascism and learn how to goose step.

The military is not legally allowed to do this.

Absolutely ashamed of my fellow devil dogs! This is a sad and dark day indeed! They should be stripped of their EGAs. We took a goddamn oath to defend against all enemies both foreign AND domestic as well as to defend the constitution; not to support fascist, Nazi dickbags! Fuck those Marines!

How the ever loving fuck is this constitutional?

Thanks, and we will. It'll get worse before it gets better and it's also gonna get really weird, but we'll get through. Appreciate the kind words. It actually does mean a lot.

This is utterly ridiculous and wrong

Come on military bigwigs, step up and defy the evil moron and respect and obey your constitution. Tell your soldiers to stand down. Impeach the evil one and join the protest

Trump's tyranny era

Thats a crime by the marine

MAKE THEM SHOOT YOU

We need to identify the members of the US military who are detaining and arresting American citizens. These traitors must know there will be consequences for their crimes against their country. Treason. #FUCKtrump #trump

Unlawful use of the military...

Marine vet here from a family of vets. They made me ashamed that I ever wore the uniform. Semper Fi? Bullshit.

There is no meaningful difference between being detained and being arrested when the act is the same. This is fascism. This is not what the people want. This needs to be stopped.

Of course, it's a person of color. #FDT

Hey Pookie, I'm no ace reporter for of the most renowned news outlets in the world, or anything. But that is called an arrest. You can play semantics all you want so you don't get banned from WH coverage but it is what it is.

This is not the duty of military personnel, and never should be!

Calling all... Crips Bloods Soreños Kings .... You have urban combat experience Join forces Defend the Constitution

2nd Amendment remedies . Or maybe Homemade white Phosphorus and Napalm

California is the 4th leading economy in the world. Trump is attempting an armed robbery. Starting with the most vulnerable and the strongest opposition. To see what he can get away with per the corrupt republicans and the Leonard tilted Supreme Court.

traitors.

Wrong in so many ways

Judge Breyer doesn't have to speculate anymore! bsky.app/profile/anna...

Of course the person arrested is not white.

What a waste. Only in Trumps America. The man of no wars is what he called himself on the campaign trail. He's burning it all down now.

Probably wasn't for ice but rather the LAPD.

I was locked out of the other place for telling these guys to jump off a cliff. I didn’t even say that they should jump off a fucking cliff!

You forgot the most IMPORTANT part: ILLEGAL

Disgusting

Setting the Constitution on fire.

The article does not even list their "reason" for handcuffing and detaining this young man. Did you not bother to ask?!

Liberal podcasters keep yelling about the tipping point. We're over the tipping point.

hey reuters care to take the boot out of your mouth? I can't understand what you are saying behind the bootlicking.

The storm troopers are here. Hope Nugent’s happy.

for what?? 27 yrs old, US citizen, veteran going for an appointment with Veteran Affairs??

Fascism sucks.

Not white.

It’s an arrest and it’s not legal, do these media companies actually do journalism any more?

The dude with croakies and a murse really Public Enemy number 1, huh?

Where's Juba when you need him?

@thetnholler.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @governor.ca.gov @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov

@chriswarcraft.bsky.social shine light here please

Wait a minute

Unconstitutional, but who's going to stop them?

Well, nonsense, but while they attack their own people they don't attack us in Canada, Groenlan, Panama or Danemark.

Shameful.😝

Illegal detention

"Military officials are not allowed to carry out arrests themselves." But stopping someone on the street, putting them into zip ties, and not allowing them to continue on their way... Do you all need a dictionary?

I'm getting sick and tired of publications saying a law "generally" forbids something.
