It gets weirder…
Now there are reports (by a Michael Baxter) of #FEMA agents and (fake?) #NationalGuard in a #shootout with #Marines who spotted foul play, including preventing help in saving lives and burying 113 corpses in a mass grave.
😳 I don't know what to think, but this is hard to keep out of the alternative media.

Better late than *after* the #MAGA mob’s reaction to the inevitable imprisonment of #DonaldTheDeplorable.

...and, I wonder what going through the minds of the 100 #Iowa #NationalGuard troops who are being sent by their yokel governor to "help" fight against the tide of illegal immigration.

I wonder if they're thinking how nice it is to have their lives upended in such an impotent gesture so that some moron can get a sound bite on Fox.

#Florida #DeSantis #NationalGuard

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has sought to recreate the Florida State Guard, a World War II-era volunteer force intended to supplement the state's National Guard for non-military missions like emergencies and natural disasters.

But droves of veterans who were brought in for training quickly quit — because they realized they were being given purely military training, for a force that looked like it would have a military mission.

A soldier near the Texas line
Had a fever and felt far from fine
Mis-diagno'd at first
But he quarantined at worst
And now the malaria is out in decline

Today in Labor History May 23, 1933: The "Battle of Toledo" erupted when sheriffs' arrested picket leaders at the Auto-Lite plant in Toledo, Ohio, and beat an old man. 10,000 strikers blockaded the plant for seven hours, preventing strikebreakers from leaving. Ultimately, the crowd was broken up with tear gas and water cannons. The National Guard was called in the following day. The strikers held their ground against the troops, who shot and killed two of their members and wounded 15 others. The strike lasted from April 12 to June 3. The American Workers Party, led by Marxist A.J. Muste, supported the strikers. On June 2, the union and management came to an agreement, that included union recognition and a 5% raise, but only after the threat of a General Strike.

1/2 #KentState | May 4, 1970 | The anniversary of 4 college students murdered in cold blood by #Ohio #NationalGuard came and went, and damify saw one—not ONE—mention on my TL. Did it trend at all on SM?

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young recorded "Ohio" immediately after hearing the news, and the song was on the radio within 2 weeks.

Here, #GrahamNash tells how #NeilYoung, gutted by the news, turned his pain into a classic Vietnam-era protest anthem.

NEW: While state law enforcement agencies converge in San Francisco to address the city's drug problem, advocates fear the move may worsen the rate of fatal ODs.

“I think that folks are just very frustrated with where we’re at right now, with what they’re seeing that’s more visible in the streets. But really, the challenges that we’re seeing on the streets right now are largely due to the war on drugs, and it’s been the punitive approaches to people who use drugs and the high rates of incarceration.” - Health RIGHT 360's Gary McCoy

I know the younglings think of May the Fourth as a fun Star Wars thing but to me it’s still an infamous date - May 4 1970 - when the Ohio National Guard decided that American college students at Kent State University, exercising their 1st Amendment rights (or even just walking across campus), were enemies worthy of shooting and killing
