In a constant demonstration of power through the constant escalation of intensity with them -both at the level, through Shutdown, as well as at the state and local level with and ice -, the prosecution of his earlier political opponents -such as James Komey -and the leveling of all institutional antibodies.
Trump’s imprisonment of the Mayor of Chicago and the ruler
With the forces of the National Guard being transported from Texas to an installation outside Chicago preparing for businesses within Illinoi’s largest city, the US president, with posts in the social media requested the prison of the city’s mayor, Brandon Johnson and Brandon Johnos of the Ice and Customs Service for their anti -immigration companies in the area.
Trump moved against Johnson and Pritzker, including the fact that they have asked a federal judge to stop the “announced Trump war against the state” and while at the Oregon weekend, he had ruled that the Ethnicity could not. Prizker accused Trump of trying to motivate a violent outburst to justify further militarization and made it clear that state authorities have been legally moved to stop the development of the National Guard. Nevertheless, federal judge gave Monday green light to move on to their development.
National Guard is waiting to enter Chicago while 58% of Americans are opposed to such moves
The US president had ordered the troops of National Guard to Chicago and Portland of Oregon (while taking Memphis of Tennessee), in the same pattern that he had requested the consignment of the National Guard to Los Angeles and Washington in the past.
As Trump said in another post, which even implied that he could rely on the insurrection act: “My goal is very simple. STOP CRIME IN AMERICA! ” According to federal legislation, National Guard and other military troops are generally prohibited from carrying out operations to enforce the law. But the law on uprising allows an exception, giving troops the power to police and arrest people immediately. A poll by Reuters/Ipsos published on Wednesday, however, found that most Americans (58% of respondents) oppose the development of troops without an external threat.
Violent crimes are reduced in many US cities by the rise of the Covid era, and the troops of the National Guard have so far been used to a large extent to protect federal facilities and not to combat crime on roads.
Protests outside the Ice facilities, Antifa terrorists say the government
In the past few days, there were strong protests on Trump’s immigration policies in Chicago and Portland, outside of ICE facilities, but was largely peaceful and limited, according to local officials, but not for the Deputy Minister of Justice, Chicago. ” It is noted that recently, after the assassination of Charlie Kerk, President Trump has decided to appoint Antipha anti -fascist groups as domestic terrorism organizations, as there are a few anti -fascists involved in demonstrations and protests outside ICE detention centers.
Repression, threats and persecution of political opponents
The above, which smells of an attempt to exert pressure and “hunting” political opponents, come as former FBI director James Comey – who had led the investigation into Russian involvement in the 2016 elections in favor of Trump – was reported to him for a federal of Congress (for whom he said innocent, while the trial was set for January 5), but also while Trump called for an investigation against Democratic Senator Richard Blumedal, who accused him of lying that he had served in Vietnam.
The new appeal to Justice Minister Pam Bodi to “chase” another Trump democratic and political opponent came after a Bodi examination in a Senate committee, in which Blumedal accused her of not acting independently, but according to Donald’s instructions. The Blomendal intervention even came after Bodi refused to answer whether she had discussed the Komey case with the president before finally seeking to prosecute the former FBI chief.
Trump has also pushed to begin investigations for several of his opponents. These include New York Attorney General Lefsia James, California Adam Sif Sen. and former Trump National Security Advisor John Bolton (whose house had even visited FBI). Research has also opened Trump for Open Society Faoundations by George Soros.
The intensity for shutdown is socially rising socially
In the mix of the strategy of tension used by Donald Trump against the Democrats, the issue of federal services shutdown is included. Apart from the fact that shutdown now there are even airport operations, the government’s positions on the issue of wages of employees on holiday have begun to cause reactions.
In his statements, the US president argued in response to a question that in terms of wages it is not certain that all employees who were on holiday would be paid for this time. As he typically said: “I would say that it depends, who we are talking about. For the most part, we will take care of our own people. But there are some who are not really worth care for them, and we will take care of them in another way. ” These statements came a few weeks after a memorandum from the White House Administration and Budget Office, which called on federal services to prepare for mass redundancies, although there is relevant legislation guarantees that employees who are on holiday in the SHUTDDown are mandatory.
Trump statements have de facto caused a new shoemaker, and now the US Federation of Government Officers (AFGE), as well as the National Federation of Federal Employees (NFE), representing about a million officials. The unions at rallies, as well as in their announcements, made it clear that these statements were opposed to the relevant legislation, while also calling on political parties in Congress to finally reach an agreement to put an end to Shutdown.
