Donald Trump’s handling of the protests is unworthy – the situation in the morning

Love Readers, dear reader,

Anyone who has to emphasize the weapon at the end of having everything under control has long since lost control.

What is Donald Trump takes out this day, a democratic head of state is unworthy. Or, like the man of the hour, California’s governor : “Un-American”.

It was only the first of many taboos that Trump broke in this epic of a leadership failure when he sent the California National Guard against the will of the California government against California on Friday.

It was only then that the mostly peaceful protests previously escalated against the Washington’s deportation delusion presumably in part. The pictures that have been around the world have shown nothing less than a bleeding democracy:

Yes, violence against his executive is not allowed to put up with a state. But what if it is this state itself, who drives its citizens to the extreme through subsidized hatred? Macho bruts like “you spit, we beat” will finally quickly “hit her, we shoot”.

Now the Pentagon does not only want 2000 additional militia officers Los Angeles Send, but also 700 marines. While the Against the federal will already falls into a dark gray area (the state of California wants to sue), the use of regular armed forces in Germany is even more difficult. For good reason.

The founding fathers actually wanted to protect the Americans from such acute abuse of power. But Trump sees in the constitution, in this great instructions for free cooperation, just an unsightly serving proposal. Tutorials are not for real Men.

In addition, there is the terrible certainty that Trump will not get tired of stretching his powers into the unhappy of everyone. Again. And again. And again. The sophisticated yes-sagers with whom the party patriarch surrounds himself in his insatiable confirmation addiction, they serve themselves, therefore and not even to the country. It would urgently need a hero in the Maga series. Someone who, despite all the ideological stubbornness, not only keeps the borders of the United States, but also the red lines. Someone who grabs Trump in situations like this on both arms, shakes him vigorously, tells him: Donald, it is enough!

Los Angeles should only be the beginning. According to media reports, people want to go on the streets all over the country in the coming days. A surface fire threatens. And nobody turns up the water. Only oil.

Believe me: I long for the summer hole. What was that wonderful breathing space when it felt like all of Germany, whether it was a wild boar or a lion.

And what are we discussing this summer? I mean, away from what Trump serves us every day.

When Vladimir Putin attacks NATO. Right, when. The “OB” has long since been off the table, the intelligence services agree. In Berlin, they therefore advise how we can protect ourselves from what comes from the east. At the top of the setlist: the reissue of a classic.

Is the compulsory commitment now coming? And if so: how please? That discusses star-Politics bosses in today’s “5-minute talk”:

So, let’s relax with some gossip. Where. She is already bitterly learned, the mud fight between the two Hollywood stars Blake Lively and her colleague Justin Baldoni.

But you probably need a short “what has happened so far” (as I did earlier):

Lively and Baldoni make a film. LIVELY accuses Baldoni of sexual harassment and defamation. Baldoni accuses LIVELY of defamation, wants $ 400 million.

Of course? Oh yes. Lively’s husband (Box-Office king Ryan Reynolds), her pretty best friend (a certain Taylor Swift) and a local sheet (“New York Times”) are also involved.

In any case, the whole thing has more twists than I have said, very mediocre stripes that were originally possible. My colleague Sarah Stendel had them

But about the actual news: A New York court has now rejected Baldoni’s lawsuit – due to lack of evidence. A decision on Lively’s lawsuit is still pending. Baldoni can also appeal. It remains exciting.

I don’t know how they are, but at home in Cologne I don’t feel really sure. At least not always and everywhere. More and more and more aggressive dealers and their customers leave my neck hair in many areas as a factory setting.

Although Germany After being safer than South Korea, it feels different. I have never had the feeling of having to look over my shoulder. No matter how late, no matter, or dim the alley. And that in a 25 million metropolis.

This is not least due to the ubiquitous, visible video surveillance. Gevatter state really has its eyes here everywhere. But we Germans are worth more data protection.

I wish you a great day – Annyeonghi Gyeseyo!
