One other thing all of these attacks on American citizens hanger in common. They all happened under the GOP. The right is a violent fascist party and always have been.

The right assassinated;

Lincoln

John f Kennedy

Robert f Kennedy

Martin Luther king

The right murders;

Sandy Hook

Waco

Oklahoma City

Pulse

Vegas

Every mass shooting in the history of the United States was committed by the right.

Any chance you could link up funding wise with existing alternative media sources? Create a confederation of progressive journalists?

Let us remember that when Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus used his National Guard in 1957 to defy the Federal court order desegregating Central High School, President Eisenhower federalized them and sent in the 101st Airborne to enforce integration and the court order.

In 1962, John F. Kennedy did the same to integrate Ole Miss, in the face of Fred Walker, Ross Barnett, and their racist mobs, and enforce the court order.

And in 1965, when George Wallace cut loose his bullyboys on the marchers going from Selma to Montgomery, Lyndon Johnson federalized that Guard to again protect them.

That is how Democrats and democracy uses the troops. To support the civil power.

I have no doubt that the Bloated Yam will haul the "insurrectionists" in Los Angeles before Article 32 Uniform Code of Military Justice hearings, in defiance of Ex Parte Milligan.
