Barely Moderating:

The discussion of the Florida sheriff is tangentially linked in terms of reactions, but isn’t central to the National Guard presence in LA. Let’s not let it become a hijack to this thread, though it’s perfect fodder for our “No Kings” protest thread, where it’s already been linked and not yet had nuance discussed. This is barely a mod-note, more of a please and thank you.
