THE Donald Trump It hardens his attitude and ordered the development of 700 marines and an additional 2,000 members of the National Guard in Los Angelesin a lasting attempt to suppress the riots in the city.
The Joint Administration responsible for the North America region (US Northern Command or Northcom, “Northern Administration”) said in a press release that it “activated” somewhere “700 Marines”, to reinforce its ethnic forces – House. At the same time, California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom turned his arrows against Donald Trump.
THE Gavin Newsom He noted that the Trump decision for the Marines only satisfies “the perverted fantasy of dictatorial president” – Republican Donald Trump.
“The US Marines have served with honor in many wars to defend democracy. They are heroes, “Newsom commented via X.” They should not be developed on American territory, facing their compatriots, to satisfy the perverted fantasy of a dictatorial president. This is anti -American, “the commander added.
The decision for the Marines
“In the light of the increase in threats against federal officials and federal buildings, 700 Marines in Active by the Fivelton camp”, located about two hours by road south of the big city, “will grow in Los Angeles to help protect the Trump, which was expressed on the condition that it be named. A little earlier, this source had spoken of some 500 marines.
Northcom summarized in its announcement that the operation in Los Angeles, code -named Task Force 51, will be involved “about 2,100 ethnic” and “700 marines”.
All of them, at this source, have been trained in “in declining”, “crowds management” and “applicable regulations for the use of violence”.
The development of military acting in American territory is a decision anything but ordinary – and it is upset by defenders of civil and civil rights.
The California Governor, Democratic Gavin Newsom, appealed to justice against the development of the National Guard in Los Angeles. Commenting on the news yesterday that marines will be developed in the big city, he considered that the decision would only satisfy the “perverted fantasy” of the “dictatorial president”.

‘This is not democracy’
The decision for the Marines and the National Guard has caused anger and confusion in many, especially protesters, but also democratic politicians, who accuse the president of throwing oil on fire.
Kelly Dimmer, a 47 -year -old demonstrator, denounced the “weird” decision to develop the US military against citizens involved in the mobilizations.
“They are supposed to protect us, but (…) they are sending them to attack us,” he told the French agency, adding that the US is now “not democracy”.

“If they spit us, we’ll be hit hard”
Clearly determined to harden the tone, Donald Trump spent via Truth Social, addressing those who described participants as “rebellion”, “paid”: “If they spit, we will hit, and I promise you we will hit harder than ever.”
Members of the National Guard in military uniforms, equipped with bats and shields of riots, were developed yesterday in front of a federal detention center of the city. Opposite them, protesters were shouting “pigs, go back to your homes!”
An increasingly massive crowd converged in the center of Los Angeles, where police were separating protesters from federal agents. Furious cars are sown on the streets, remnants of riots that led to 56 arrests within two days.
California Attorney General Rob Bonda announced yesterday that he was appealing to President Trump to justice, judging that his decision to mobilize the National Guard without the approval of the State Governor “violates” the Constitution.
The Democratic Mayor of Los Angeles Caren Bas assured, for her part, that the perimeter of the episodes is only extending to the “some streets” of the center.
If one believes Donald Trump, the Californian metropolis was to be “erased from the map” if he did not ordered the National Guard.
In Los Angeles…
If there is a fire, your leaders will do nothing to protect you.
They will let your home burn.
If there is a riot, endangering your life and property, your leaders will tell law enforcement to stand down.
Los Angeles is a shit hole.pic.twitter.com/JVGcQlFzCV
