Updates:
To be clear, this is what an insurrection looks like:
Zelenskyy: "We are not playing in the park with the Russians like two boys, two kids — Putin is not a kid … we cannot say, Ok, let them fight for a while … it's not about President Trump. Anyone living thousands of miles away can't fully understand the pain."
Less than 45 minutes after President Donald Trump thanked the National Guard "for a job well done!" Mayor Karen Bass clarified on social media "the National Guard has not been deployed in the City of Los Angeles."

ABC News has reportedly suspended senior national correspondent Terry Moran over a deleted X post in which he called White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller a “world class hater.”
According to CNN’s Brian Stelter, ABC News said Sunday that Moran has been “suspended pending further evaluation” following his post.
Leavitt: "Hopefully this journalist will either be suspended or terminated. You cannot go on these unhinged rants against administration officials and the President of the United States."
Tom Homan: We are making Los Angeles safer. Mayor Bass should be thanking us. She says they are going to mobilize—guess what? We are already mobilizing. We are going to bring the National Guard in tonight
BRENNAN: Deals is about negotiating down the tariffs. So that's a diminishing source of revenue over time. But are you saying that there will be blanket tariffs?HASSETT: Tariff revenue is not going away, that's what I'm saying
Q: "Trump said that masks will not be allowed to be worn at protests. Who is going to enforce that and how?"Kristi Noem: "The law is going to be enforced…I won't get more specific on that just because we never do when it comes to law enforcement operations."
Kristi Noem in Feb 2024: If Biden federalizes the National Guard [to handle border issues], we’ve got a war on our hands.”lKristi Noem in 2025 as DHS Secretary: …federalizing the National Guard.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Sunday defended President Donald Trump’s decision to federalize the California National Guard in response to violent unrest in Los Angeles over the weekend.
Noem argued the president acted only after Democratic leaders failed to restore order. Notably, the former South Dakota governor opposed the idea of the White House federalizing her state’s National Guard just a year ago.
During an appearance on CBS’s Face the Nation, Noem said Trump had no choice but to intervene Saturday evening once it became clear that local officials, including Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom, were not taking adequate action to protect the public.
The Couch Fucker:
Vance: " Donald Trump didn't do anything wrong with Jeffrey Epstein… I'm the VP to President Trump. My loyalties are always gonna be with the president…[Elon's] gone so nuclear…It's a huge mistake for him to go after the president."
Theo Von: " Elon also tweeted that…Trump tariffs will cause a recession."Vance: " He's making a mistake and going after the president… I think he's frustrated. I think he's an emotional guy…He's making a mistake."
One of our core principles is to not deploy the Marines domestically to carry out law enforcement functions. They aren’t trained for that and aren’t there for that. Since the founding of the Republic. But this toady will never go against Trump on anything. bsky.app/profile/atru…
KARL: Do you know what he's talking about with the Epstein files? And why haven't those files been released?MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know. That's not my lane. We have no concern about President Trump of his involvement or any of that.
