Removing illegal aliens, particularly criminal aliens, has been Trump's agenda from the start. You've got it backwards. It's the illegal immigrants and their supporters who are picking the fight. ICE is just upholding the law.
A couple thousand nut jobs in California acting like idiots is pretty normal. Trump was elected for exactly this reason they’re just helping him even more..

income tax was 91% on the rich back then...
91% of a small % of higher income. Most of their income was taxed at a lower rate. And Kennedy lowered taxes and like Reagan, George W. Bush, and Trump, he saw an increase in Federal revenue. You want to stick it to the rich but can't seem to grasp it's the rich investing in new companies that creates jobs and makes it possible to have a middle class. Jobs don't exist in a vacuum, somebody has to create the job and hire someone to do it. And when the wealthy can keep more of their income the resulting economic activity from their investing increases Federal revenue. If Kennedy hadn't been killed I wonder if like Reagan he would've become a Republican? At least back then a Democrat could say what he did about taxes without being crucified by the Left.

Yeah I'm sure the Marines are itching to mow down Americans. You people are sic.
The Marines are there to do a job. If they are attacked they will protect themselves. No matter how badass you think your posse is they aren't professional soldiers. So go home before you/they get themselves hurt.

i understand theres a difference between effective tax rates

top 1% had less than 10% of the income back then.

if you had higher taxes you would have less fascism. economic inequality leads to authoritarianism.

effective corporate tax rate near all time highs while jfk in office

The Marines job is not to control protests. This is a dictator move and anyone that supports this should have their head examined.

Na doubtful they’ll do much of anything other than be a show of force to disperse your criminal friends. Those little punk bitches will run the other way just like you would. Although you probably can’t run very fast with your pants, almost down to your ankles.
