Terrifying.
Kristi Noem is now threatening to “liberate” Los Angeles from its elected leaders—using DHS and the military.
That’s not rhetoric. That’s a coup in plain sight.

Noem’s authoritarian threat to “liberate” Los Angeles from its elected leaders is a dangerous assault on democracy, reminiscent of the very tactics she criticizes abroad.

Gavin Newsom was re-elected with 59.2% of the vote. Almost a full 10 points higher than Velveeta Voldemort.
And Karen Bass was elected with 54.8% of the vote.
What happened to “elections have consequence?”

To conclude …
Everyone’s rightly sharing the Padilla handcuffing footage, but can we pause for a second and read this quote from Noem’s presser? pic.twitter.com/1CaCJEwied
