Your guide to what the second period of Trump means to Washington, business and the world

law enforcement officers clashed with the demonstrators in Los Angeles for the third day on Sunday after President Donald Trump posted the National Guard to reduce demonstrations against raids on illegal immigrants.

Federal agents launched smokes with demonstrators near a detention center in the center of Los Angeles, according to video clips published by the American media.

During the weekend, Trump protested a law rarely used to suppress the invasions and rebellion to send the National Guard forces, a step that local law enforcement officials consider unnecessary and shaken by California Governor Gavin Newsgum as “inflammation”.

The American president justified the sharp move on Sunday night in a incendiary language: “A great American city has been invaded one day, Los Angeles, and it was occupied by foreigners and illegal criminals.”

On the social truth platform, Trump, without evidence, claimed that “the violent mob, the rebels wandering and attacking our federal agents to try to stop our deportations.”

During the weekend, the federal agents faced hundreds of demonstrators, and in some cases they fired rubber bullets and use grenades.

It was not clear how the accident started on Sunday evening.

The turmoil in the second largest American city by federal agents has pushed the arrest of dozens of people in sweeping local companies.

On Sunday evening, Trump did not rule out sending the naval infantry after Defense Minister Beit Higseth threatened to move on Saturday.

“We will see what we need,” he told reporters. “We will send everything we need to ensure the existence of a law and order.”

In his social position, Trump said he ordered the officials “to take all these measures necessary to liberate Los Angeles from the immigrant invasion, and put an end to this riot.”

Publishing up to 2000 guards will test the intense ability of democratic countries to resist the Trump administration agenda and protect their citizens from enforcement.

Trump’s “federal” decision was that the National Guard – or transferred it from the state to federal control – is very unusual. It was last done in 1992, when then President George Haw Bush sent the guards to Los Angeles to control the riots in the wake of the Rodney King Police. In this case, the goalkeeper was requested by California Governor Wilson.

This time, Trump has canceled Newsom’s desires, a frequent goal for the president. It was the last time that a president was sent to the guard without the state governor’s request in 1965, when Lindon Johnson sent forces to protect civil rights marches.

Newsom said that the Trump administration made the decision to publish the National Guard “not because there is a lack of law application, but because they want a scene” in a post on X.

Sinator Fairmont Bernie Sanders, who votes with Democrats, warned that Trump “is moving quickly towards tyranny.” He accused the president of challenging the constitution and the rule of law.

Nannett Parajan, a democratic member of the congress, told the southern Los Angeles areas that have seen many protests, CNN, Trump was “sending the National Guard because he does not like the viewer. He does not like the scenes of people who protest in peace.”

She added that she had spoken to the mayor’s mayor on the land, who said they had things under control and that there was no need for federal reserve.

Parajane said that Los Angeles officials have been told by the federal government “preparing for 30 days of enforcement”, while the border told Tam Tom Humann NBC that “about 150” undocumented migrants have already been detained in the city during the past two days.

The deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles comes amid a broader confrontation between the White House and California.

The Trump administration, which was aimed at “minimal” of 3000 migrant arrests daily, clashed with the democratic state mostly, after officials pledged to resist and not cooperate with immigration and customs raids.

Trump threatened federal financing discounts due to California positions on immigration, transgender rights and other issues.

In response to revenge, the news company suggested that California block federal tax payments, saying X: “California residents pay federal government bills … Maybe it’s time to reduce this.”

He pointed out that the state contributes more than 80 billion dollars to taxes more than it receives.
