I haven't seen the news yet tonight, but I did see this.
Reports from LA is that the protesters were peaceful and the federal agents escalated it the same way.
In case you want to follow along at home this weekend.
The first map from the BBC has info on where the protests are currently.
The second map is from the 50501 group webpage. Those are the known and registered protests planned for Saturday.
Here is their website if you want to dig deeper. www.nokings.org/?SQF_SOURCE=50501
Last I saw there are over 1,800 protests schedule for Saturday around the country. The Alt-National groups have said they have 90,000 member attending around the country.
The ALT groups are current and former, anonymous, federal employees who are reporting from the inside and are the reason why federal agencies are giving current employees loyalty tests and polygraphs. You can learn more about how the ALT groups got started during trumps first term here: www.nokings.org/?SQF_SOURCE=50501
I highly recommend following the ALT-National Park Service on social media if you haven't if you want to follow along with the downfall of democracy in the US.
I remember a few months ago when people were asking why we weren't rising up and I kept saying it wasn't time. We weren't ready because not enough fickle Trump voters had been harmed yet by his policies. (we will never convince true MAGA that Trump is a bad man).
It is time. Enough voters have been harmed, even in red areas. People are seeing the excessive use of force happening and are mad about a stupid North Korean style military parade.
I pray that nothing bad happens this weekend to be honest. Hopefully it just distracts from his ego parade and makes him mad that people aren't bowing at his feet. We will see, it could go either way.
Also, you are going to hear that over 200 people were arrested in LA last night. They were arrested for breaking curfew. The actual charge is failure to disperse, a misdemeanor punishable by up to 6 months in jail and/or a fine of $1,000.
So nothing really. But I am sure the media will play this up as a huge thing.
Heck yea! 7 Democrats and 3 Republicans made money off his market manipulation it appears by financial recordings. Anyone rich who has insider knowledge of what he was going to do made a lot of money during his market manipulation weekend. There is a reason why people in Congress go in with much less money then they leave with.
Nearly all politicians are the same aren't they? Sure, there are a few who really care and want to serve the public. But that is hard to find these days in my experience in the US. Money and power are powerful drugs.
AOC is trying to stop stock trading my Congress members, but they have to vote themselves to disallow it. You can imagine how fast that will happen. 
There is none. Which is why, if we have another election, they all need to go. Most opposition is coming from the State level, and that is complicated. There is a hearing in Thursday about the CA deployment. Ordinary people are calling for state to activate their guards first, but that isn't a viable solution either.
i haven't seen the list of 5 cities, i am guessing it will be in cities like Seattle, Chicago and New York?
I marked up a map of what things could look like.
The red zone is a militarized zone on the border and where National Guard troops are currently stationed.
The blue zone are MAGA states, they will help him themselves.
The purple dots are where I suspect he would send more troops to, but I can't predict what the 5th city would be. Probably Portland, they are a special type of protestors in that city. Northern CA is fairly red, so no need to go there.
I am no military strategist, but it does appear that he is surrounding us.
