Reuters images showed #Marines apprehending a #civilian, restraining his hands w/zip ties & then handing him over to civilians from #DHS.
Asked about the incident, US #military's Northern Command spox said active duty forces "may temporarily detain an individual in specific circumstances."
"Any temporary detention ends immediately when the individual(s) can be safely transferred to the custody of appropriate civilian law enforcement personnel," a spox said.

Per Idrees Ali of Reuters:
The #troops are authorized [by whom? Not by law] to detain people who pose a threat to federal personnel or property, but only until #LawEnforcement can arrest them.

The incident took place at the Wilshire Federal Building in #LosAngeles where #Marines took charge of the mission to protect the building earlier on Friday, in a rare domestic use of US #troops after days of #protests over #immigration raids.

The #disinformation also added to the confusion over what exactly was happening on the streets, which was portrayed in digital & #SocialMedia [& #RightWing news #media] through starkly divergent #ideological lenses. Many posts created the false impression that the entire city was engulfed in violence, when the few clashes were limited to only very small parts.

Misleading photos, videos & texts have spread widely on social #media as #protests against #immigration #raids unfolded in #LosAngeles, rehashing old conspiracy theories‘ to support #Trump’s actions.
The flood of falsehoods appears intended to stoke outrage toward #immigrants & #Democrats.

Solid speech from Mayor Bass just now. Cc: @renewedresistance #losangeleshttps://www.youtube.com/live/eLZ6AwWpK20?si=cswAv_aCAqb2p-1Y
Who's going to join me in putting up as many #NoKings flyers as possible today and tomorrow?

They have some great generic ones and some tailored for specific cities.
Well, the #PosseComitatusAct has officially been violated.
#NationalGuard troops have detained #civilians in #LAprotests, commander says
National Guard troops already have temporarily detained civilians in the #LosAngeles #protests over #immigration raids, the commander in charge said Wednesday, but they quickly turned them over to #LawEnforcement [the 30 second rule is only for food fools].

Maj. Gen. Scott Sherman also said about 500 of the #NationalGuard #troops have been trained so far to accompany #ICE agents on #immigration operations.…
Sherman is commander of Task Force 51, which is overseeing the >4,000 Guard troops & 700 #Marines who have been deployed to #LosAngeles to provide security during the #protests.

Did you know it’s not just two journalists who’ve been shot while covering the LA anti-ICE protests?
It’s many more. They appear to be targeting the press. Trying to silence them. Dissuade them from reporting on what is one of the most important issues America is facing.
Does the country want to submit to a fascist authoritarian?
Or do they want to fight back?
LA has chosen to fight back. And journalists are showing up to cover it. As they should.
Adam Rose is keeping a running tally on a thread on Bluesky. Highly recommend checking it out.
here’s some of the injured:
Ryanne Mena, shot with pepper balls
Sean Becker-Carmitchel, hit multiple times
Anthony Cabassa hit in face with chemical munition
Ryanne and Sean were hit again the next day, with a tear gas cannister
No name has been given but reports of someone from KTLA being hit with less lethal ammo and going to urgent care
Lauren Tomasi hit with less lethal ammo
Nick Stern shot with less lethal ammo and requires emergency surgery
These people were clearly identifying themselves as members of the press
They were there to do their jobs
And at least in the case of Lauren Tomasi, there’s video evidence which appears to show an officer taking clear aim and firing directly at her
Say their names.
Speak up.
The public need to know the risks the press are taking just to attempt to bring truth to the masses.
The Regime have been attempting to silence, sue and throttle the press since day one.
We shouldn’t tolerate any direct attacks on them.

The latest deployments prompted a new wave of misleading images to spread—some purporting to show #Marines & the #military service’s weapons in action. One was a still from “Blue Thunder,” a 1983 action-thriller about a conspiracy to deprive residents of #LosAngeles of their civil rights. It features a climatic dogfight over the city’s downtown.

Darren L. Linvill, a researcher at Clemson University’s #Media Forensics Hub, said #conservatives online were “building up the riots in a performative way” to help bolster #Trump’s claims that #LosAngeles had been taken over by “violent, insurrectionist mobs.”
Linvill said the posts were also “a bit self-fulfilling.” “As they direct attention to it,” he said, “more #protesters will show up.”
