Trump deploys Federal Troops due to LA ICE protests

Trump appears to get more deranged and demented with age if he really thinks LA needs to be liberated with troops as if it were some kind of failed state...

Stand in the light, cast your shadow.

Newsom’s request was DENIED. Trump is permitted to use the National Guard.

 

Ngl the legal basis of Newsom’s appeal wasn’t that strong. He made an appeal to the escalatory intent of the deployment (which is obviously true, but that doesn’t necessarily make it unlawful) and also claimed that the deployment was outside of the scope of Posse Comatitus (not true because the Marines can technically legally be deployed anywhere at any time to protect federal property).

Trump just called LA a “trash heap” and vowed to “liberate” LA

Trump’s speech at Fort Bragg was absolutely disgusting. Inflammatory rhetoric designed to groom troops into the idea that it would be patriotic for them to be deployed into American cities.

Yes and doubled down by sending 2,000 MORE...AND 700 Marines...:bear:

There are officially more troops in LA than in Iraq and Syria CONBINED rn...to put how insane this whole situation is :saladga:

This is why Governor Newsom and the LA mayor are saying Trump is escalating things unnecessarily and without legal authority

For anyone who’s interested:

Historian Heather Cox Richardson offers a great breakdown of the situation in LA and how it relates to what’s going on nationally in the US under Trump
