How did the crisis broke out
The beginning came when Ice agents stormed into businesses such as Home Depot, as well as warehouses and factories, arresting dozens of immigrants. Within two days, the arrests exceeded 120, causing a wave of indignation in communities of immigrants and supporting organizations. Despite assurances that the objectives were “illegal immigrants”, many of the detainees had legal residence documents or were under a settlement.
Demonstrations in favor of migrants by Trump
The operations of the immigration service caused immediate reactions. Thousands of protesters took to the streets, mainly in the Paramount area, shouting slogans in favor of immigrants and against Trump. The protests evolved into fierce clashes with security forces, which used tear gas, rubber bullets and grenades. Damage to property, injuries and new arrests were recorded.
Reactions and development of ethnicity
Donald Trump, through his posts on social media, said he “will not allow chaos and lawlessness” and ordered the mission of 2,000 members of the Los Angeles National Guard.
On alert the marines
At the same time, he raised military military forces on Camp Pendleton, raising questions about whether he was preparing to activate the federal insurrection act.
Fierce reactions
This decision has sparked strong reactions from the local leadership. California Governor Gavin Newsom accused Trump of “throwing oil on the fire” for political reasons, while Los Angeles mayor Karen Bass called on self -restraint, but made it clear that “militarization of the roads” is not the way.
Hard line against immigration
The riots acquire a clear political dimension ahead of the November elections. Donald Trump reinforces his hard line against immigration in an effort to mobilize his electoral base. Politicians of his circle, such as Steven Miller and J. D. Vans, they characterize the demonstrations as “armed uprising” and call even harder interventions.
Violation of the Constitution by Trump?
However, many constitutionalists and lawyers point out that the federal government’s intervention without the request or consent of the state may constitute a violation of the Constitution. The Supreme Court is expected to be involved if there is a escalation or legal appeal by the state of California.
