The Late Night Dumpster Fire Report

 The people who govern us are cowards.

Collins: Governor Newsom has not done anything to warrant an arrest in your view right now?

City of my birth. I am inordinately proud.

What were you saying about Texas, @FoxNews? Looks a lot like L.A. https://t.co/rgC9vAIsRS pic.twitter.com/KqMYckEnIU

Cohen: This isn't a protest problem here in Los Angeles. This is a counterintelligence problem and what's happening in Los Angeles isn't free-speech. This is coordinated insurgency.. This is about control. Control of the streets. Control of the algorithm and ultimately control… pic.twitter.com/1vnuO4IPS9

The Ruth Ben-Ghiat of the right, I presume? Except this guy thinks there’s a nationwide conspiracy at work, and the solution is: arrest them all. So, no, he’s not serious, which makes my comparison inapt. This guy is a bull goose looney.

Trump official responsible for keeping Americans safe calls the 10 million Americans who live in the country’s second largest city criminals. https://t.co/8B4Yi9DcGY

How long before Noem says this about Dallas? And speaking of lawless:

Without the Insurrection Act, Marines cannot act outside Posse Comitatus. Trump has not invoked the Act here, so what’s going on? What plays on TV, that’s what. On PBS Newshour tonight, the discussion turned to what Trump did in his last term, how he reacted to video of protesters on TV. Not from intelligence reports.

Trump has absolutely no idea what governance means.

Trump wants Marines on the streets so he looks tough. That’s all he understands.

Tonight, LA police are restoring order and arresting people. The quality of those arrests is one thing. ( When there were campus protests at UT Austin over Gaza, students were arrested and taken to the DA’s office, where they were promptly released. The DA didn’t want to bother with them.) The need for any help is another.

They don’t look like they need any help.
