CA Governor has gone crazy.  New lawsuit filed - Newsom v. Trump - governor sues the president

I am pissed off and this was my chance to do something, so I took the opportunity-- I filed an amicus brief on behalf of a small group of attorneys who have
grave concerns about what the governor and the governor's attorneys are doing here.  They are knowingly violating their Oaths to support the U.S. Constitution
and Federal law by promoting the governor's policy positions on his orders, which is contrary to law.  The Federal court should discipline these government
attorneys for failing to uphold Federal law.  Follow along with the case if you like, 3:25-cv-04870-CRB in the Northern District of California.

Thanks for your service. Newsom is crazy and the mainstream media claiming the protests are peaceful is a joke. While I can have compassion for many situations
involving somebody undocumented, what is happening now is just insane. Its wild Newsom still thinks he has a chance as president.

I just received a call from a "concerned citizen" who accused me of treason under California law for filing my group's amicus brief in this case. I corrected
his mistaken beliefs about treason and addressed all of his concerns, but when I did that he just said "I disagree" and hung up. What a crazy world we live in
where a legal filing asserting allegiance to the United States is called treason.

Yes.  Bush in 1992 and Kennedy in Alabama in 1963 are the closest analogs.

I fought for the Constitution. Using Marines against protests disgraces it. | Letters
Detroit Free Press

I am a Marine combat veteran. I wore the uniform with pride. Not for glory or politics, but to serve something greater than myself: the Constitution of the
United States. I saw war up close. I lost brothers. I lived with the weight of what it means to take a life in the name of liberty.

But I never imagined I’d live to see the same Marine Corps deployed on American soil — not to protect life or respond to disaster, but to stand guard
against the very people we swore to protect.

That is not leadership. That is not patriotism. That is cowardice.

The U.S. military is not a private security force for any president
And it’s a disgrace.

Need a break? Play the USA TODAY Daily Crossword Puzzle.

Let me be clear: the U.S. military is not a private security force for any president or politician. Our loyalty is not to the office of power, but to the
American people and the Constitution we swore to defend. That oath doesn’t end when we hang up our uniform. It lives on, and it binds us to speak out when
power is abused — even when it’s our own. Especially when it’s our own.

Throughout our history, the military has been a symbol of honor and restraint. We’ve always drawn a sacred line: we do not turn our force inward against
civilians. To cross that line is not only a constitutional crisis — it’s a moral collapse.


But now, we see uniformed Marines stationed around government buildings — not to serve, but to suppress. We see military force used to intimidate protesters,
stifle dissent, and project strength where there should be humility. We see our brothers and sisters in arms being told, directly or indirectly, that their duty
is to silence fellow Americans.

That’s not defense. That’s not order. That’s not justice. That is repression.

This isn't 'law and order.' It's repression
Some Americans cheer this on. They call it “law and order,” as if safety is more valuable than freedom. But order without justice is not peace — it is
submission. Security without liberty is not safety — it is fear. We don’t salute uniforms because they exist — we salute the principles they’re supposed
to uphold.

The founders of this country understood the danger of turning soldiers into political tools. That’s why we have the Posse Comitatus Act. That’s why our
system separates civilian and military power. Because when the military becomes a weapon of domestic politics, democracy dies with a boot on its neck.

Anti-immigration raid protests are continuing into the fourth night as the Pentagon deployed active-duty U.S. Marines.
To the commandant of the Marine Corps: you are failing your Marines. Allowing this misuse of the Corps is not a neutral act. It’s complicity. You dishonor the
memory of those who died believing we were fighting for something nobler.

I say this not out of bitterness, but out of love for what the Corps meant to me — what it’s supposed to mean to all of us.

America: This is about the soul of our republic
To every American: this moment is not just about troops on streets. It’s about the soul of our republic. It’s about whether we still believe that power must
answer to the people, not the other way around.

Because if we stay silent now, if we normalize this erosion of liberty, we will wake up in a country where democracy exists in name only, guarded by soldiers
who forgot what they were fighting for.

I fought for the Constitution. I still would. But I will never stand by while it’s trampled by the very institution I once called family.

We are better than this. And if we still believe in America, we must demand better — before it's too late.

If he is from Highland Park (IL I assume) then he is extremely liberal. 

Sorry, but when is a line drawn? They want to cherry pick and supported killing an unarmed woman at the capital and calling people who were largely unarmed
“insurrectionists,” but when their side does worse, oh they are peaceful protestors. 

Libertarians are also scumbags and everything that’s wrong with the country. They have so many answers when it comes to the Feds, but zero answers when state
and local governments become corrupt. It’s almost like they are the last gasp of the confederacy. 

I wish the military would have come here to Chicago when there was nonstop looting and even curfews were implemented by former Mayor Lori Lightfoot. Downtown
Chicago is no longer what it used to be. 7 floors of a Macys looted because police were told to stand back. 

I can feel compassion for people who have families here like the woman with cancer whose mom was deported. Sure, such situations should be dealt with on a case
by case basis with compassion. However, civil unrest and destroying entire cities necessitates action that the local and state government clearly are unwilling
to take. Oh but the libertarians will cry out “martial law is coming.”

Sure Ron Paul seemed cool when we were kids in 2008, but growing up is realizing what a flawed ideology libertarianism is! Wtf do we have a federal government?
So they can just sit around and look pretty? 

If the libertarians had their way, we would have wide open borders, dentists would be free to perform heart surgery because "muh regulations" and "muh state
laws should triumph," no vaccinations, and heroin would be legally sold to your kids. Thats the sick world the Pauls want. I still think Ron has some cool
points like when he talks about gold, but honestly his policies in action would be crazy. LOL, at Rand worrying about if his maid would get deported. 

Trump is already caving anyway and wants to allow illegal farm workers to stay. That crazy Noem who shouldn't have any job is already saying they can self
deport, be given $1,000 to leave, and then come back. They do not have money for student loans though. lol. Citizen proles always suffer. LOL, USA do not have
money for education and healthcare for their own citizen. Until every American has free education and universal health, its hard to make a case that anybody
else who is not a citizen should be entitled to money. American citizens live on the streets here, but oh the wealthy farmers need cheap labor.

Believe it or not, I know a few people who wanted to vote for Gary Johnson. Most of them were pretty small minded. There are of course some mainstream
politicians in the Senate and Congress who promote libertarian ideas (even if not full on libertarians) and I feel these ideas became increasingly popular in
the past 15 years or so. Laissez-faire economics is also a hallmark of the libertarians. Federal regulations are needed in many areas because obviously there
are plenty of states are filled with ignorant people so regulations should exist to protect the vulnerable. Also, when it comes to issues like certain types of
licensing, food standards, and environmental issues, there definitely should be a federal standard where the state fails to implement them. For example when it
comes to food, we can let the state go above that standard, but never below it. The libertarians would make it so the corporations and state governments can do
what they want. Zero consumer protections too. A company fucks over tons of consumers, the libertarians would say screw the FTC, them Feds are evil let the
corporation continue to fuck people even if its a monopoly.

Libertarianism is very different from communism but ultimately similar. Some of the ideas sound nice, but when you actually learn about it, its deeply flawed
and would lead to the worst type of chaos. Rand Paul believes that letting thugs destroy a city and allowing a local and/or state government to do nothing is
better than the Feds having any type of intervention because that means "muh martial law is coming."
