In response to protests in Los Angeles, President Trump has authorized the deployment of 2,000 National Guard troops, portraying the situation as a chaos that needs military intervention. Critics argue this memo symbolizes an unprecedented expansion of presidential power over military forces aimed at civilians. Observers note that the chaos is exaggerated; most Angelenos are enjoying their weekend peacefully. Prominent legal scholars have called the decision 'stunning' as it builds on misinformation about the state of unrest in the city, raising concerns about civil liberties and government oppression.
Trump is going to laser-focus on those few to make an example of this city, and to increase his own power.
These Radical Left protests, by instigators and often paid troublemakers, will NOT BE TOLERATED.
Put down your macha lattes and trade in your Birkenstocks for boots, folks. We are the revolution, apparently, so dangerous only a seasoned military can stop us.
Trump's memo will go into the history books as a moment when presidential power expanded to put under his control a military force aimed at U.S. civilians.
