Crime Syndicate-Clocks Ticking on Trumps Immunity-He Just BROKE The LAW AGAIN
The Clocks Ticking on Trumps Immunity and He Just BROKE The LAW
Trumps Quest for Total Presidential Immunity Has Hit a Snag...
The Supreme Court DECLINED the opportunity to halt his sentencing in a New York state court
AP 14JUN 2025
This week, when border czar Tom Homan threatened to arrest California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, Donald Trump goaded him on, telling reporters, I would do it if I were Tom. I think its great and adding, Gavin likes the publicity but I think it would be a great thing
While Trump brays about having a Democratic governor arrested and Kristi Noem had a Democratic U.S. senator tackled for asking questions, someone should tell them that two can play that game.
In the State of California, inciting public violence is a crime.
Commonly known as inciting a riot, under California Penal Code 404.6 it is a crime to deliberately exacerbate violence by encouraging peaceful protesters to engage in violence.
PC 404.6 states-
Anyone who with the intent to cause a riot does an act or engages in conduct urging a riot, or urges others to commit acts of force or violence, or the burning or destroying of property, and at a time and place and under circumstances that produce a clear and present and immediate danger of acts of violence or destroying of property, is guilty of incitement to riot.
Every law enforcement agency in the U.S., including the FBI, knows and teaches that an excessive show of force will turn peaceful protesters into violent rioters, almost instantaneously. Recommended de escalation methods are even published on Trumps Department of Justice website.
Nationwide police and FBI anti escalation standards coupled with Newsoms objections to the militarys presence lead to one conclusion... Trump sending troops into LA based on the fiction of an invasion is deliberate provocation.
Trump is trying to incite violence to serve his own political goals of declaring martial law, in violation of Californias Penal Code, and should be arrested for same.
Nothing radicalizes citizens faster than being brutalized by state force
Whomever is advising Trump in LA knows the quickest and surest way to radicalize any population is to use or display disproportionate force against unarmed people. A disproportionate government response to civic unrest predictably triggers anti government sentiment, and causes violence that feels like self defense. Military advisors know this, every police chief in the nation knows this, counterinsurgency experts know this.
Every law enforcement organization in the US trains its officers to de escalate to diffuse violence rather than exacerbate it. The FBI acknowledges, through its Crisis Negotiation Unit, that de escalation is crucial in keeping police officers out of harms way ? anecdotal and impressionistic evidence clearly reflects that this methodical approach to managing crisis events has saved thousands.
The FBI has provided training to law enforcement agencies across the U.S. for the past 50 years, so its impossible that Trump, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Kash Patel, Trumps FBI director, are unaware of it.
Trump may have deliberately chosen unqualified clowns for his cabinet, but every one of them has attended enough rubber chicken conferences to know the importance of de escalation.
By sending the military into LA for what started out as largely peaceful protests, Trump is doing the opposite of what his own police intelligence counsels. Newsom is hip to what Trump is doing, and has made clear that Trump is putting the LA public, the police, and military members in harms way.
As he and the mayor of LA keep telling Trump, who knew it already, heavyhanded violence from the government never pacifies dissent, it causes violence to explode exponentially, which is Trumps plan.
Trumps Police State as DICTATOR
Trump has made no secret of his plan to recall thousands of American troops from overseas to station them instead on American soil. His goal, modelled after his fascist idol in Hungary, Viktor Orban, is to impose a police state under which the media, judges, and political opponents are silenced, imprisoned, or worse, for criticizing him.
With tanks in the streets and Fox News propaganda running 24/7, Trump will be able to remain in office until he appoints Don Jr. his successor. Trumps objective is to remain in power, which he has admitted, to insulate himself from legal accountability until he dies.
To that end, he has done everything in his power since returning to office to instigate violence on the streets, and not just in LA. So far hes tried to incite riots by arresting a Black mayor, arresting a Black member of Congress, arresting a sitting judge, kidnapping brown people on their way into work, and sending migrants to foreign gulags without due process, all while filming and televising the cruelty as widely as possible.
Republicans are scared CHITLESS less or they'd stop this madman. Their cowardice is on display before the rest of the world.
A member of Canadas parliament, Charlie Angus, just said in a formal statement about Trumps conduct in LA. Offering solidarity and prayers for the people of California, Angus delivers a full throated indictment of Trumps police state, noting
--We're not talking about creeping fascism here. This is full on police state tyranny from gangster president Donald Trump
In a fiery and delicious 10 minute speech from the Canadian Parliament, Angus rages that a convicted felon and sexual predator dares to threaten Canadas sovereignty. Angus urges his fellow Canadian lawmakers to block Trump from entry into Canada and to bar Trumps scheduled attendance at the upcoming G7 conference.
Withhold Federal Funds And Arrest Trump
Newsom is correct to consider withholding federal taxes from a fascist president determined to defund states, universities, and organizations he doesnt like.
A state withholding federal taxes is unprecedented, except for a brief period during the Whiskey Rebellion when farmers in Pennsylvania refused to pay the whiskey tax. Its also logistically complex because federal taxes are paid by employers and state residents directly. But what Trump is doing to destroy the nation is also unprecedented 95% of his executive orders exceed his constitutional authority.
The state of California is the nations biggest donor state, meaning it pays $83 billion more to the federal government every year than it receives nearly three times as much as the next biggest donor state. In addition, California taxpayers contribute more than any other state to total federal taxes, according to Internal Revenue Service data.
In FY 2023/24, Californias total federal taxes were $806 billion nearly twice as much as Texas, which contributed $417 billion, and more than twice the $384 billion New York contributed. So whatever damage our toddler in chief hopes to inflict on Californias governor and state economy will assuredly ripple throughout the national economy.
Even though a sitting president can?t be prosecuted while in office, they are not immune from arrest or criminal charges or prosecution after leaving office. Theres at least one precedent President Ulysses S. Grant was brought into custody for speeding.
The point isnt sending Trump to prison, where he'd be today if not for the Federalists he installed on the Supreme Court. The point is fighting Trumps theater fire with theater fire. Trump has cast himself as the strongman star of his own fascist reality show, but he's not the only official with the power to have people arrested for breaking the law.
AND Horror in Minnesota is all on Trump. This horrific chaos kills any lingering doubts about America
SMUG
I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldnt lose any voters, OK? Donald Trump infamously told an audience on the campaign trail in 2016, referring to his supporters? enthusiasm.
Nearly a decade later, he wants to ensure that he wouldnt face a criminal prosecution for it, either. Those efforts hit a setback this week as the Supreme Court narrowly declined the opportunity to provide the legal relief he sought.....at least for now.
