DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek that the City of Glendale’s decision was “deeply disturbing,” and accused state officials of siding with criminals over public safety after unrest in Los Angeles.
Just so people are aware, this is the same rhetoric/same regurgitated talking points being used against “progressive” policies in blue cities within red states all over the country.
They are banking on an escalation of physical violence and confrontation that they will use as an excuse to establish a permanent federal and military force in California that will not be subject to any California state laws.
Why do I believe that? Because its how it happened in my own city to establish a permanent state police force that can’t be regulated by any city or local ordinance.
They instigate and then argue that progressive policies have resulted in an emergency and chaos, that leaves them no choice but to step in and fix things by taking control.
City: we have decided not to support these people because they aren’t providing safety.
Government: WHOA YOU ANT DO THAT UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR CITIZENS TO SUFFEE
City citizens: no we support this action. We feel safe when ICE is nowhere to be found.
Government: SEE THEY’RE TERRIFIED
