LA mayor, black woman https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karen_Bass
DC mayor, black woman https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muriel_Bowser
Chicago mayor, black man https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Johnson
Baltimore mayor, black man https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Scott
New Orleans mayor, black woman https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karen_Bass
What a very odd coincidence. Every city he wants to deploy troops to happens to have black leadership. So strange. I wonder why....
I know! I know!
Spot the difference!
Hint: Republicans control the entire state government of Louisiana and will bow down to trump and his MAGAts. Democrats control the entire state government of Illinois and will fight back.
My guess is that trump wanted to do Chicago, but he just just the Los Angeles Posse Commitatus lawsuit and Illinois is fighting back. Going for New Orleans means that the mayor there will be on his own, so there's less pushback and more opportunity to push the envelope.
Maybe they need more opportunities to normalize sending National Guard troops into cities. LA was met with lawsuits and protests. Chicago was likely going to be worse.
But if he does something like New Orleans now and maybe Memphis next, then when it comes to the next democratic city, it will be less likely to get news coverage. Cut to midterms next year, every city will have their elections “protected” by red state national guardsmen.
They are setting precedents to use to declare martial law, 2028 in mind I presume.
The most worrying precedent is one that got little attention, federal judges being forbidden from issuing Nationwide injunctions. They could declare martial law, round up citizens and disappear them and we would be functionally unable to challenge it, if you somehow got a chance to file a lawsuit they could jam up the process indefinitely and it would not help anybody else. The courts believe the Republic is over and we are in an autocracy already. The politicians believe that. The lawyers believe it. It is just the citizens that are not all aware yet.
Your comment depressed me. I hope Americans don’t stand for this shit. Dems need to take the house in the midterm for any hope of changing this future.
We need to take the house to even have a chance of electing an opposition politician. If they control the house and the senate, and every other means of rigging the fails them, it is safe to presume they would use fake vote rigging projections and vote the presidency to their own guy.
To get to that point we would need a popular muscular opposition that we still are lacking though. They are going to try to force Gavin Newsom and offer zero real reform and weakly trust the courts to protect elections and fail the overwhelming majority and muscular politicking that would be needed. He would not meet the moment if he got in anyway, we need a restoration and a new deal.
On the plus side there will be a succession fight and an epic fight in the nest of Vipers for supreme leader so that could be our only chance to take it from them before it is rigged beyond recovery.
It would be the most attention this admin has paid, or will pay, to New Orleans.
TACO Trump folds to Chicago cause they stood up to him. Pay attention other cities, you don't have to just roll over!
Our governor is welcoming him with open arms. He literally made a post on his X account saying we welcome them with open arms across the entire state.
TACOs do seem like a good idea for dinner.
Trump needed to get his goon squad to punch a bunch of black people on camera and Jeff Laundry was more willing to play ball than J.B. Pritsker.
I'm not looking forward to the Louisiana National Guard getting back into practice shooting black people trying to leave the Superdome twenty years after last time. I don't really consider slow rolling one of America's largest black cities until it looks like The West Bank any kind of win.

Hey, first of all, okay, they were black! And, y’know, suspicious! Probably escaping from something!
For those who don’t know also it was just regular cops, not the guard, but that was twenty years ago, before the mask-off fascism.
Heck, it’s probably the plan.
So it's not an emergency? It's on a rota?
Yea. They discovered that New Orleans’ public gardens and spaces are overrun with weeds; a problem that needs to fixed asap
TACO knows Chicago ain't gonna mess around. A red state will roll over and show it's belly.
Still not detracting from: WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES, PEDOnald???
Got to intimidate the blue states. Notice how he isn't sending his SA to Houston, one of the highest crime rates in the nation?
Right but Trump is a liar. Nobody believes a word he says; this story is a waste of space. Of course he would say this to deflect from the bad news of targeting blue cities ... right before going into Chicago anyway.
And he's in the Epstein Files. Don't forget that.
Well, he may be chickening out. There's plenty of precedent for that.
Trump Always Chickens Out
Texas National Guard has already been staging troops and equipment ~~at Great Lakes.~~ I wonder who paid for that.
e:
Ah I got that quote wrong, however:
"We have reason to believe that the Trump Administration has already begun staging the Texas National Guard for deployment in Illinois."
This is the solution? Roll the military? And to what end? Forever? This is the solution to crime, bring in an army that is hand picked to be loyal only to Trump.
This is what you gt when you vote and have no brains.
Fuck this. Where do we protest?
You misspelled riot.
Dems should lock down every city in similar ways so that it's only Republicans forced to see how useless it is to have the National Guard aimlessly wandering around the streets with weapons
What weapons? Illinois has very strict gun control, including an assault weapons ban.
There are exceptions for federal officers. But if Trump can't find a way to federalize the Texas Guard...
The Louisiana governor is receptive to it. Dumbass sycophant.
President Donald Trump suggested he may not send National Guard troops into Chicago as he's repeatedly threatened, and for the first time introduced a potential new target for his next crime crackdown: New Orleans.
This really goes to show that this has shit to do with crime. It's just "what other state will I fuck over now? Who don't I like?
As long as you got a friendly governor and a city with enough black people, I'll launch a domestic "liberation" campaign.
- Trump, probably
It's all made-up bullshit anyway; might as well flip a coin, dumbass.
Protect from who?
Cmon say it, I'm listening
Doubting the Big Easy will be as easy as expected.
There's a lot less black people in New Orleans than Chicago. I'm confused by this shift.
