President Donald Trump is posing as a wartime leader building a political case to use American troops not in a foreign conflict, but at home, to bolster his mass deportation sweeps.
Per the above article: Trump is building a political case to use American troops not in a foreign conflict, but at home, to bolster his mass deportation sweeps.
“Trump repeatedly and falsely claimed on Tuesday that if he’d failed to dispatch the National Guard and US Marines to Los Angeles, it would be “burning to the ground.” The president also warned that he was looking beyond Los Angeles, as other cities, and states – especially those run by Democrats – brace for expanded sweeps against undocumented migrants and protests that could follow.
In a highly politicized speech to troops at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, later Tuesday, the president portrayed entire neighborhoods of Los Angeles as locked in the grip of an occupying force of “transnational gangs and criminal networks.”
“We will liberate Los Angeles,” Trump said, as if he was referring to a city seized by a hostile foreign army. “We will use every asset at our disposal to quell the violence and restore law and order right away. We’re not going to wait seven days and eight days and wait for a governor that’s never going to call and watch cities burn.”
In another development Tuesday that appeared to reveal the administration’s intentions, the Department of Homeland Security confirmed that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem previously asked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to direct troops in Los Angeles to arrest protesters. The San Francisco Chronicle reported that Noem made the request – which would likely violate the law if ever carried out – in a weekend memo. DHS later clarified that Noem wrote the memo before she and Hegseth met with Trump.
Newsom responded to Trump’s increasing pressure with a broadcast to California’s citizens on Tuesday evening.
“Democracy is under assault before our eyes, this moment we have feared has arrived,” said a Democrat who is seen as a potential 2028 presidential candidate. Trump is “taking a wrecking ball, a wrecking ball to our Founding Fathers’ historic project – three co-equal branches of independent government. There are no longer any checks and balances.”
