So I really don\u2019t understand.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Today, there are scattered reports of Marines from 29 Palms being sent to Los Angeles. I have questions about this too.<\/p>\n<p>The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 prevents the use of military personnel in domestic law enforcement unless authorized by law. I don\u2019t know who makes that authorization, I presume Congress. So I\u2019m concerned on two fronts:<\/p>\n<p>1) Has Trump violated his boundaries as defined by Congressional oversight? 2) If the Marines are being deployed I\u2019m concerned that Marines will be standing around with big assed targets on their backs.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Bass was trying to pull heart strings taking about how fearful the immigrants are in Los Angeles. Duh! If you\u2019re here illegally, whether it\u2019s a day or a decade you have broken the law.<\/p>\n<p>You should be afraid, if you\u2019re smart, you should be planning to pack up your shit, and go home. If you\u2019re self deporting heading for Tijuana I doubt seriously ICE is going to stop you.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Bass said, \u201cStop the raids, they\u2019re causing fear and chaos in our city.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So what the fuck does she propose? Obviously the raids will be ongoing. She\u2019s asking for the US to continue to accept illegal immigrants. They\u2019re blaming Trump. In my opinion they should be blaming Biden.<\/p>\n<p>If you think about it, had Biden not thrown the borders wide open, then everything would have continued on status quo. But Biden\u2019s actions pissed off a rather large swath of the American populace and this is the inevitable backlash.<\/p>\n<p>As my mother used to say, \u201cAll it takes is a few bad apples and everyone loses the ability to do something.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In this case, there were too many illegal crossings, most of them barely vetted, and then they disappeared into the interior of the country with the help of federally funded relocation via buses, planes, trains, and automobiles.<\/p>\n<p>Hell, the illegals were allowed to get onto planes with virtually zero documentation while American Citizens were almost being strip searched to get on a plane.<\/p>\n<p>While our elders, were squeaking by on an average of $1500 a month, the illegals were having housing provided, getting stipends of 3 or 4 thousand dollars per month, getting free medical care, and getting free phone service.<\/p>\n<p>Surely someone in the Biden administration, at some point had to think, \u201cMaybe this isn\u2019t a good idea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Granted, It had probably been going on for years, but with so many people surging the border the fact that illegals were being treated better than Americans who\u2019d worked their whole lives paying into a system that congress has raided innumerable times and who effectively betrayed them, couldn\u2019t be hidden anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Of course there was going to be a backlash, well this is it.<\/p>\n<p>As I watched Mayor Bass\u2019s conference, I couldn\u2019t help thinking that this was a Mayor who was clueless and flailing. Newsom is no better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frankly I\u2019m confused. On the one hand she kept stressing that if people do something illegal, they\u2019ll be arrested.
