Oh no! President Trump is trying to keep law-abiding citizens safe…damn him. Radical news source Raw Story published this headline yesterday, Sunday June 8. 2025, “‘This is the big one’: Ex-DHS official raises alarm over Trump’s plans for LA.”
A former Department of Homeland Security (DHS) official during Donald Trump’s first term as president claimed that what is happening in Los Angeles is exactly what the president has been hoping for so he can unleash the military on Americans.
Speaking on MSNBC’s “The Weekend,” former DHS chief of staff Miles Taylor stated the protests in Los Angles against militarized ICE agents do not rise to the level of insurrection that Trump’s inner circle is claiming, but it has handed him the pretext to do what he has always wanted to do.
As he explained, “This is, in my opinion, the single most significant act you’ve seen yet in the Trump administration. People are going to start to come to that realization over the next few days. This is the big one, this is the one that people like me were warning about when I came forward first in 2020 and started talking about the things I was most worried about that I saw in the first Trump administration that the president wanted to do.”
“At the top of that list was deploying the U.S. military on U.S. soil to enforce domestic law,” he recalled.
“Make no mistake, his own lieutenants were worried he would create a de facto police state if he was going to be deploying the military on U.S. soil,” he added.
“What is happening in Los Angeles is not a rational response to what they’re seeing on the ground,” he pointed out. “This is indeed, in my view, pre-planned to be able to give the president justification to invoke the Insurrection Act and it made sense that where they decided to do these raids was Los Angeles.”
“You know we’re in trouble when we hear it was a ‘mostly” peaceful protest. Remember the ‘mostly’ peaceful protests in the summer of 2020?” said Thomas Robb, National Director of the Knights Party of the Ku Klux Klan, centrally based in Harrison, Arkansas. “It’s odd how a couple of people had the door opened for them to enter into the Capitol building, and a couple windows getting broken on January 6. 2021 was called an insurrection, but here we have ICE agents being attacked, cars burning in the streets, and your regular crowds of misfits that think America is better off with non-white, illegal criminals running amok in our streets, causing even more chaos. This is what our National Guard if for. To protect law-abiding citizens within America. What is so irrational about enforcing law and order? It got out of hand and the local police departments can no longer keep control of the situation, so that should be the next step, send in the National Guard. I’m sure it’s not what President Trump planned, or wanted to do, it’s what he had to do to regain law and order. National Guardsmen should be given the go ahead to use lethal force if necessary, even if it’s just one molotov cocktail thrown at them. Law abiding American citizens should not have to fear uprising when these radical knuckleheads don’t get their way.”
