Donald Trump is testing the boundaries of the presidential authority by sending the forces to Los Angeles

By inviting the forces to suppress the protests in Los Angeles on Sunday, Donald Trump showed that he was ready to put the country in full swing – and test the borders of the executive authority – to achieve its goals.

For the first time in decades, National Guard It was published against citizens on local soil against local law enforcement desires, using a law rarely protesting a designer to help the United States fight foreign invasion. The last American president deployed the National Guard of the state without asking its ruler in 1965, when Lindon Johnson sent forces to protect civil rights demonstrators in Salma, Alabama.

Beit Higseth, the Minister of Defense, even threatened to send the Marines to suppress the disturbances of the raids against the illegal immigrants. This will require the recall of the rebellion law, which lasts 30 years ago during the riots that broke out in Los Angeles after the police that beat Rodney King.

Ryan Inos, a professor of government at Harvard University, said that the deployment of the National Guard in the second largest American city and a largely liberal city, “was clearly done as a powerful presentation of strength.”

“There is no political reason (why should the administration target places in Los Angeles instead of places in the red states.”

This publishing is the last effort by the Trump administration to test the boundaries of the presidential authority and forcing the states run by Democrats to follow the federal decrees. Some scientists warn that these efforts are increasing in the open challenge of the political agreement and the American constitution.

Within a few days, Trump ordered an investigation into his former presidential rival Joe Biden and officials in the previous administration, and threatened to stop federal funds flowing to California.

The President put forward the idea of ​​canceling government contracts held by companies belonging to his former ally, Elon Musk, and warned that there will be “very serious consequences” if the billionaire used the war to support democratic candidates.

Trump’s most passionate lieutenant has released similar threats. Vice President JD Vance suggested that the scene of “foreign citizens who do not have a legal right in the country waving foreign flags and attacking the law” can be legally defined as an invasion.

Stephen Miller, the White House immigration engineer, announced that the choice in front of the country is “the deportation of the invaders, or the surrender to the rebellion.” He supported a leaflet calling for a mass deportation regardless of what it costs, which concluded: “Nothing else matters if this is not dealt with.”

In Fox News, the borders of Caesar Tom Human suggested that the Ministry of Justice in Democratic legislators – including the minority leader in the House of Representatives, Hakim Jeffrez – who called for enforcement agents in immigration and customs, would not hide their faces behind masks when raids.

By justifying the deployment of forces in Los Angeles, Minister of Internal Security Christie Sleep claimed that ICE agents were just “worse than the worst”-the criminal foreigners included in the societies that committed the law.

But a report issued by the Washington Conservative Exam Last week He claimed that Miller was fluctuating on the Upper ICE leadership just to follow the criminals, and urged them to collect all uncomfortable immigrants. This ice is denied.

The widespread range and random nature of survey operations by ice agents has been highlighted over the past few days through the wrong detention of Marshal, the United States in Arizona, which officials have admitted that they were “flying the general description of the ice that the ice is looking.”

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

On Saturday, the White House press secretary Caroline Levit defended the operations as “necessary to stop and reverse the invasion of illegal criminals to the United States.”

“The supreme leader will ensure the implementation of the entire US laws,” she added.

Administration critics Migration Repression says random raids by design.

“Obviously, they know that mass deportations will be incredibly disturbed by these cities that have many immigrants who live in it,” said David Bear, Director of Immigration Studies at the Kato Institute, a Libertari thinking center.

He added: “They were fully expected and hoped for this type of reaction, because it is a good policy for them, and it justifies both collective deportation and other power.”

Andrew Winstein, the lawyer who held the position of General Delegate to the United Nations during the era of President Biden, said the escalation was part of a broader strategy.

“Whether it is the unprecedented politicization of the army, or the (Trump Administration) assault on higher education under the guise of combating the very real problem of high anti -Semitism, or rapid deportation of non -citizens without legal procedures, all of this is an excuse to increase the authoritarian agenda,” he said about the recent moves by the White House.

“Each of these measures has a slightly more basis of our democracy.”

Currently, it appears to be general support to suppress immigration from Trump. Yougov survey of CBS, which was held before Los Angeles protests, found that 54 percent of the country was supporting the plan. This number decreased when people were asked if they support the pursuit of those who are not dangerous criminals.

Unlike Trump’s first term, when Defense Minister Mark Esber refused to send the army to cancel the protests of the black life issue, there was no real opposition to military deployment from members of the administration, or Republicans in Congress.

For his part, Trump did not see on Sunday any reason to cancel the escalation.

“We will have forces everywhere,” he told reporters. “We will not let this happen to our country. We will not allow our country to tear as it was under Biden.”
