Demonstrations in the USA: Texas: Governor Will National Guard us in protests

The governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, wants to use the National Guard in several places in the state of protests. He announced this on platform X. Previously, the demonstrations in Los Angeles had expanded against the migration policy of US President Donald Trump to other cities in the United States.

According to the police, there were several arrests for violations of the nightly lock imposed for a small area in the center of La on Tuesday evening (local time). In the political power struggle around the demonstrations, the tone between Trump and California’s governor, Gavin Newsom, worsens.

The daily newspaper “San Antonio Express-News”, citing a spokesman for the governor of Texas, reported that the soldiers were on standby with regard to planned protests in the state. Abbott initially gave no further details about the use. This Wednesday and Saturday, people in the metropolis of San Antonio want to go on the streets.

According to media reports, there have been mostly peaceful protests in the state of Texas in the past few days, including in the capital Austin as well as Dallas and San Antonio.

Use of National Guard – with and without the consent of governor

Demonstrations in Los Angeles had preceded the hard migration course of Trump and abuses from the immigration authority ICE. The US government therefore mobilized 4,000 soldiers from the National Guard and 700 marine fans of the regular armed forces for the deployment in Los Angeles – against the will of the Governor Newsom. The soldiers gradually arrive and, according to Trump’s will, should stay in the city until there is no danger. So far, an assignment has been scheduled for a maximum of 60 days.

Trump’s decision is a significant escalation and demonstration of power by the President. His approach is extremely unusual and controversial. In Texas in turn, the governor there decided to take the step. Because of the protests, the National Guard is currently only used in California and Texas.

Mayor of La imposes the initial lock

In response to the demonstrations in Los Angeles, the city imposed a nightly lock for a small area in the center. The regulation initially applies to the night of Wednesday (local time), the mayor of La, Karen Bass, said. However, she expects the nightly lock to maintain over several days.

However, a few did not stick to this: 25 people were arrested due to possible violations of the applicable curfew, the “Los Angeles Times” reported, citing a police spokesman. According to their own statements, the police had started “mass recovery” shortly after 9 p.m. on Tuesday (local time), one hour after the entry into force came into force.

Power struggle between Trump and Newsom

Meanwhile, the tone between Trump and California’s governor newsoma is worsened. The US President accused newsoma and bass of complicity with radical demonstrators in LA. The two had “paid for troublemakers, wardrobes and rebel,” said Trump. “You are involved in this deliberate attempt to override the federal law and to support the occupation of the city by criminal intruders.” How often with such accusations, Trump did not call any documents.

The California governor, in turn, surprisingly turned to the citizens in an evening address and used them for an all -round against Trump’s policy – also beyond the argument about LA. The President Hebele has the separation of powers in the United States, who had overlooked supervisors who could hold him accountable for corruption and fraud. He had explained the war on culture and science that universities wanted to tell universities what they can teach and target media and freedom of expression. “Democracy is attacked before our eyes,” said Newsom.

Newsom criticized, Trump militarized the streets of LA, traumatiere American communities with its deportation policy and split society. He has plates, gardeners, day laborers and seamstresses. “Authoritarian regime begins to target people who are least able to defend themselves.”
