All Blue cities and states are being deliberately targeted by this Regime to have their rights violated, their infrastructure disrupted and destroyed, their citizens criminalized for any resistance or disagreement to the oppression and oppressors, local businesses and neighborhoods stormed, uprooted, and shut down, jobs lost, and finally the state capital marched upon with armed troupes with overthrow of the duly elected city, county, and state lawmakers and officials. California will be history and under military occupation by ITS OWN MILITARY!!. Think about that very ugly scenario that is openly planned at the federal level and being rolled out in real time before our very eyes. This is real talk, no exaggeration.

US MILITARY OATH OF ENLISTMENT
I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
So help me God!
Domestic Enemy Definition:
A domestic enemy is a person or group within a country who actively opposes or seeks to undermine its government or social order, often through violence or insurrection. This contrasts with a foreign enemy, which is an external entity that poses a threat to national security.

Add all the bits together and all that is left, literally for Trump to do is empower ICE to enter, search and detain people without needing a warrant and the dictatorship is done and dusted. No court can stop it, no military needed, no privacy to hide your political or sexual or race from ICE. A massive gulag archipelago being rapidly constructed to hold you forever, without trial or contact. I'd suggest this will all ramp up slowly between now and when mid terms were going to happen.

I admire people who are peacefully protesting. I understand wanting to resort to violence but like Leeja said, the right is very good at optics and narratives and they will find a way to spin it. Watching LA from the East coast is the most frustrating and nerve wracking thing I’ve seen in my life. These next four years will define this decade so we might as well make some noise.

The telling thing is, I haven't seen anyone from LA talking about widespread violence, or being afraid. Not even about things in the city being disrupted. Heck, not even many photos or videos of any destruction. I remember the BLM protests. If there were things to show, they'd show them. People would be talking about it. But I only see people outside LA claiming it's chaos there, and referencing the same handful of things over and over again. You can see in the videos they do post that the crowd isn't rioting in the slightest.

Interesting. At about :30… with emphasis added, "… deployed 700 Marines on Monday despite the protests remaining GENERALLY peaceful… " Oh. Well, THAT makes us feel much better. It was GENERALLY peaceful.
Numerous comments in social media, including some I see below on this page… the violent riots are limited to just a few blocks, or 1 square mile or something like that. Pointless point. It's not the landmass that's relevant. What is relevant is the damage. For example, I don't know the number of Waymos burned but just to illustrate… what's more destructive? 100 Waymos burned in 1 square mile, or 5 cars burned across the whole city?
I looked up the actual damage done by THESE riots just in 2025 and keep in mind this is just in one city, L.A. In 2025 $300 million in damages. That is only the STATIC analysis. Very directly, property damage. It's impossible to calculate with any precision the aggregate economic impact costs when using more dynamic analysis. Loss of business revenue. lost of sales tax collected due to the loss of business revenue, etc. We have no way of calculating with precision the loss of business revenue but suffice it to say, it's a LOT. Estimates have a range and typically come in around $3.8 BILLION. Also…
Insurance claims and those costs get passed down to consumers. Just ONE insurer, Farmers, has received 800 riot related insurance claims. Keep in mind, we are still talking about ONLY in L.A. and just in 2025. Result, insurance rates go up. Go figure. Also…
We still haven't factored in loss of income to EMPLOYEES. due to many businesses will just shut down or go somewhere else.
Thrilling that Leeja has explained for us that these protests are GENERALLY peaceful though, oh and all that damage limited to just 1 square mile. Heaven forbids it should spread any further. By the way, …
I am new at this. Someone please explain to me which stores I am supposed to loot to uh… you know… save Democracy. So far in L.A. in 2025 we have Apple store, Addidas store, several Jewelry stores, CVS, TWO marijuana dispensaries, LMAO., a T-Mobile store, Shoe Palace, and of course numerous "mom and pop" type businesses. So, pick amongst those. Other than the looting also broken windows, spray paint "No ICE." on businesses? WTF did that private sector business have to do with GOVERNMENT illegal immigration policy, or whether and how the policy should be enforced?
I saved maybe the most important point for last…. all these riots amount to, in a BEST CASE rationalization for the riots, is a "it's for the greater good" argument. A lot of damage but it's for the "greater good.," The problem with "for the greater good" arguments is that individuals always get hurt, otherwise there is no point to saying, but "it's for the greater good." Leeja is a lawyer. She has studied the Constitution, she should know better. Moreover, notice how the people getting hurt are NEVER the ones actually making the "greater good" decisions. Go figure. No, the sacrificial lamb is always (unwillingly) … OTHER people. Of course. Take a pretty good bet… no one burned their OWN car in these GENERALLY peaceful protests. Take a good bet no one spray painted "No ICE" on their own property either. Like maybe on their OWN vehicle? Why not? Wouldn't that still be just as visible? Even MORE visible? After all, no will ever paint over it unless it's the actual owner of the vehicle! But sure, the vandalism must be for the "greater good." With OTHER people being the unwilling sacrificial lamb, of course.
Fascinating how Leeja blames Trump for the chaos, lol. That was what she meant by "chaos is the point." So just clarifying… she is saying that wanting to put a stop to the chaos that was already there, is adding "fuel to the fire" and causing the pathetically immature people causing it to just do more. As though rioters have some great philosophical acumen and are typically sitting around waiting for convenient rationalizations before continuing. Let's not overanalyze their actions here. Looters wanted a pair of Addidas, or an Iphone, or whatever. What Leeja is saying is, "don't blame the people actually DOING the "chaos," just pathetically find a way to shift blame elsewhere. Ridiculous.
Roughly about 24.50 Leeja says, the "right" are better at "optics" than we are. She is implying that the "right" is only better at creating the mere IMAGE of being correct. Well, no mere OPTICS in my post. Where? The people creating the "optics" were the people doing the looting, rioting, spray painting. A good argument could be made that even a PEACEFUL protest is still "optics." People love to convince themselves of what they merely DESIRE to be true. What Leeja is implying there is something like, "we are the more analytic people whereas that other is side is only better at optics." Her analysis is that Trump administration even PLANNED the riots… in her own words, "all part of Trump's big, beautiful PLAN." That's how she started the above presentation video. Leftists are clearly embarrassed by the antics in L.A. and other places and clearly desperate for some way to spin it. Talk about whacky conspiracy theories… yeah, sure. The guy running out of the store with a box full of Addidas was soooo political and philosophical. "Trump, I will loot the store and then we have the desired "optics" to show everyone see and…. " Whacky conspiracy theory. Ockham's razor, what makes more sense? Much more plausible he just wanted a freaking "free" pair of quite pricey shoes? Blame everyone except the rioters, find a convenient scapegoat. We get the VERBAL "optics." Nice try Leeja.

Trump is trying to start a fight so he can be like ‘See guys told you leftists were violent’ when he literally instigated said violence. This is also why a lot of press are being shot at because he can’t twist the narrative with evidence proving it’s BS floating around. The regime can’t gain ground if they can’t fabricate stories to the cultists.

I was extremely happy to hear the point about the flag – an issue which is very common across the 'anglosphere'. Here in the UK at virtually every single protest which has a left-leaning focus you will not see a single British flag (or English flag in England). About the only national flag you will see (even in a protest not related to the issue) will be the Palestinian flag. As such the left has completely ceded the national symbols to the right and increasingly the far-right and that really matters as most people, especially amongst the working classses, retain pride in the national symbols. It absolutely doesn't have to be that way. Large left-leaning anti-government protests in Turkey, Israel, Lebanon, and other countries around the world, are filled with the flags of their respective nations – defiantly stating that the right and far right do not own the nation, that they don't define patriotism that they are not guarantors of the nation's future.

I often appreciate your insights, but I think you are very very off-base to say people should not be flying the Mexican flag, or should fly the American flag instead. Nobody on the left wants to reclaim the American flag. Nobody on the left who is actually politically active is even thinking about that. The flag of the United States of America has always represented the ruling class of this country, and it has been fully embraced by the right wing, and represents the right wing. The flag of this nation is a symbol of the current regime, and therefore a symbol of fascism. The optics of patriotism and the optics of "peace" are entirely irrelevant to what is going on here, and only from a position of immense privilege can a person even worry about the optics of peace. I follow your channel to get a better idea of what the best-educated liberals are saying and thinking, but ultimately liberalism is not prepared to handle the threat of fascism. If you continue to focus on optics and expect the oppressed to fight state violence with peace, you will become increasingly out of touch with the reality we are facing. We do not want a coalition with the people who still value patriotism in these times and it is incredibly tonedeaf for you to imply that we should be reaching across the aisle to appeal to those sympathetic to literal fascists. if seeing their neighbors dragged out of their homes and deported does not move someone, then we are not going to change their hearts and minds by flying their flag. This mentality makes you harmful rather than helpful. PLEASE do better.

All this tactically induced turmoil so the egomaniacal narcissistic serial lying unscrupulous adjudicated sexual abusing Russian oligarchy and Saudi Royal family puppet can distract everyone, using corporate media misdirection, from his big beautiful bromance cut short with Jeffrey "terrific guy" Epstein.
"I've known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy," Donald J Trump told New York magazine for a profile on Epstein in 2002. "He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it – Jeffrey enjoys his social life."
"I'm not a sexual predator, I'm an 'offender,'" Jeffrey Epstein told the New York Post in 2011. "It's the difference between a murderer and a person who steals a bagel."
“I don’t know, I haven’t really been following it too much,” Trump said, adding, “I’ve met her [Ghislaine Maxwell] numerous times over the years, especially since I lived in Palm Beach.”
“I just wish her well, frankly,” Trump said, later reiterating “I wish her well, whatever it is.” Donald J Trump said, embarrassingly to our United States, at a fox'ing Whitehouse press briefing in July 2020.
"Her friend or boyfriend was either killed or committed suicide in jail,"
"She's now in jail. Yeah, I wish her well. I'd wish you well. I'd wish a lot of people well. Good luck. Let them prove somebody was guilty."
"Her boyfriend died in jail and people are still trying to figure out how did it happen. Was it suicide? Was he killed?" Donald J Trump told Axios' Jonathan Swan in the "Axios on HBO" July 2020
