Peacefully protesting is a right. It’s completely un-American and needlessly provocative for Trump to deploy the National Guard and Marines against Americans.
These are unlawful orders.
Reposted byTed Lieu
Hegseth deployed troops to Southern California without funding for food, water, fuel, or equipment. Marines are trained for military combat – not law enforcement.
Trump must rescind his orders, Hegseth must resign, & law enforcement should be handled by state/local authorities.

The right to peacefully protest is protected by the Constitution.
But no one has the right to destroy property or commit violence. These are crimes and they will be prosecuted.
Trump’s federalization of the CA National Guard under 10 USC § 12406 is illegal.
The law requires that orders be issued “through the Governors of the States.” Gov Gavin Newsom has not issued the orders.
Guard troops in LA are following unlawful orders. law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10…
I agree with Gov Gavin Newsom that Trump’s take over of the CA National Guard is purposefully inflammatory.
I also note this federalization is being done under 10 U.S.C. § 12406, which means the Guard troops will still be subject to the prohibitions in the Posse Comitatus Act.
WE WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED. I stand with SEIU California. I stand with President David Huerta. As Americans, we have the absolute First Amendment right to peacefully observe.
As a result of extreme ICE actions, more Americans will righteously exercise our rights to monitor ICE.

Maybe this is old fashion, but the goal of government is not to hasten the deaths of Americans.
Republicans should reread the bible – Jesus did exactly the opposite of what they’re doing with their Big Ugly Bill.
Reposted byTed Lieu
Trump cares more about celebrities convicted of tax fraud than Americans who rely on Medicaid and SNAP.

When mother nature strikes, she doesn’t ask for your political affiliation first.
Californians deserve disaster aid, just like any other state would.
Another day, another scandal under Hegseth. This is not silly stuff like Hegseth using taxpayer funds for a Pentagon makeup studio.
The allegation here is an illegal wiretap. If they used an illegal wiretap on a senior official, you think they wouldn’t hesitate to use it on you?

Today, we honor those who sacrificed everything in service to America. We are forever indebted to our fallen heroes and their loves ones.
Their courage and dedication must never be forgotten.

What do you get when you add deficit exploding tax cuts for billionaires to wide-ranging & indiscriminate tariffs?
An economy that doesn’t work for everyday Americans.
30-year mortgage rates jump to 7.5%, one of the highest levels in the last two decades. Trump and Republicans reckless economic policies—as exemplified in their big, ugly bill that explodes the deficit—caused yields and rates to increase.
Reposted byTed Lieu
Today, Secretary Rubio told the Foreign Affairs Committee that they’re negotiating with Putin to save lives. But, right before his conversation with Trump, Putin launched a bunch of missiles, killing a bunch of civilians.
Clearly, Putin is giving the middle finger to President Trump.
Deeply, deeply saddened by the passing away of Representative Gerry Connolly, an amazing Member of Congress. I had the honor of serving with him on the Foreign Affairs Committee and greatly enjoyed his friendship, his wit and his leadership. May he rest in peace.

Republicans are having a meeting on their big ugly bill at 1am.
Why? Because they don’t want the American public to know what’s in the bill.
