Amid escalating protests in Los Angeles, President Trump has authorized the deployment of the National Guard to maintain order in the city. Reports from various sources indicate that the situation in Los Angeles has become increasingly volatile, prompting this decision.
According to a report from Twitchy, Fox News has highlighted the deployment of the National Guard as a response to the growing unrest in Los Angeles. The move has been described as a significant step in addressing the situation on the ground.
However, not everyone is in agreement with this decision. Representative Nanette Barragán (D-CA) has criticized President Trump, accusing him of “targeting peaceful protests” by sending in the National Guard. This sentiment was echoed in a report from Breitbart News, where Barragán’s comments on CNN’s “State of the Union” were highlighted.
On the ground in Los Angeles, the BBC’s Regan Morris has been reporting on the situation outside a federal building where violent clashes have occurred over the past few nights. The presence of the National Guard is expected to have a significant impact on the dynamics of the protests and the overall security situation in the city.
As tensions continue to rise in Los Angeles, the deployment of the National Guard represents a decisive move by the Trump administration to restore order and ensure the safety of citizens amidst the ongoing protests.
