Donald Trump Manufactured the Crisis in Los Angeles (jacobin.com)

The Trump administration claims to be fighting an existential battle against insurrectionary forces in Los Angeles. In truth, it created this cynical spectacle itself, deploying troops and inflaming tensions to distract from its policy failures.

A certain someone is trying to control the news cycle to hide from elons Epstein allegations. This is one of things he's really good at sadly.

Honestly, no one actually cares that didn't already care already. If the last decade of Trump being an obvious sex pest and criminal didn't change your mind what would this do?

We could have a video of Trump touching a child and his base would just say it's AI.

How many times have people said "oh this is the thing that ends him" and no one fucking cared. It's a cult. It won't change anything.

You don't hurt fascism by hurting Trump or trying to change peoples moral perspective of him. That time is long gone. You hurt Fascism through seizing back power. Grab a sign and some PPE. We need the streets filled.
