The state authorities of California They have presented on Monday a demand against the president of the United States, Donad Trumpby display about 2,000 soldiers of the National Guard “. All under the argument of having to stop the protests that “bise” the city of Los Angeles. Manifestations that have been climbing in violence, yes, but that began as a clear symptom of tiredness of American society towards The constant raids of the Trump administration against migrant citizens.
Thus, the Attorney General of California, Rob Bonta, has added forces with the governor of California, Gavin Newsom, to impose a Demand against Trump and in which they demand the court that “Cancel the president’s illegal action” Well, Federized to the California National Guard. ” Or, in other words, I would have sent the police to go out Without having the competition To do so.
This demand comes when they are met Three days of mass protests and clashes against police officers. The Los Angeles community resists, they don’t plan to stop in their Defense of its neighbors of migrant origin Because, in the same way, Trump has already announced that he will not take a step back in his fight against this percentage of the population. In the president’s opinion, the United States lives a “national emergency”, in general. Because specifically, if we look only at the city of Los AngelesTrump assures that It has been “invaded and occupied by illegal and criminal migrants”.
And, therefore, he has threatened to threaten Make more migratory raidsmassive by the Immigration and Customs Control Service (ICE). And it is not the only thing, because it has even threatened to raise the level in the repression that the soldiers of the National Guard can exercise against the protesters.
Trump gave the order to display some 2,000 agents cakeing in a controversial federal disposition. The result: see the members of the National Guard through the streets of Los Angeles and against the population, an unpublished and unprecedented image in the last 60 years.
But all this seems to give the same to Donald Trump, because he has defended his decision again ensuring that, if he had not done it, The city of Los Angeles would have been “totally annihilated”. “We take the great decision to send to the National Guard to face the violent disturbances instigated in California. If we had not done it, Los Angeles would have been totally annihilated, “has published in his social network, social truth.
“They should be saying: ‘Thank you President Trump. You are great. We would be nothing without you, sir ‘. But instead, they choose to lie to the people of California and the United States saying that we were not necessary and that these were ‘peaceful protests’, “Trump argued directly by the governor of California. In the same publication, he has mentioned the” images and videos of violence and destruction “that” speak for themselves. ” Together, we can make the United States big again “he has concluded by citing his main electoral campaign motto.
A debate on competencies in the US
In fact, this Trump movement has not only led to strong clashes between protesters and the National Guardwith exchange of rubber balls and stones; but has caused the tension between the President and the Californian governor, who has directly accused him of violate the law.
And, the United States National Guard can be defined as a reserve of soldiers, a kind of army, but which is controlled federally and also. With a figure of more than 400,000 military in the bedroom, this body was created at the beginning of the 20th century and has been historically deployed to deal with serious natural catastrophes. It was the case of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 or the virulent California forest fires.
The president has made use of his presidential power to achieve the deployment of hundreds of troops and provide help to security forces and immigration and customs service agents. Specifically, Trump has mobilized a contingent of about 2,000 during a 60 -day period.
The measure has come forward, this time, without the approval of the Governor of California, Democrat Gavin Newsomwho has assured that the Decision of the tycoon has been taken “lightly” And it is one “provocation” which has generated chaos images in the town. Moreover, Newsom himself has accused the country’s secretary of defense, Pete Hegseth, from behave like a “disturbed” by suggesting even the deployment of the Marines In case the riots continue for the arrest of dozens of migrants for later expulsion. In this sense, he has pointed to the Administration as main responsible for the increase in violence: “They are the ones who have created the tension that has been seen through television.”
