California Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, told MSNBC that he plans to file suit Monday against the Trump administration to roll back the National Guard deployment, which he called “an illegal act, an immoral act, an unconstitutional act.”
Trump has cited a legal provision that allows him to mobilize federal service members when there is “a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.”
Trump threatens to arrest Newsom: “I would do it if I were Tom. I think it’s great,” Trump said, referencing Tom Homan, the administration’s border czar, who warned that anyone, including public officials, would be arrested if they obstructed federal immigration enforcement. “Come after me, arrest me. Let’s just get it over with, tough guy,” Newsom said.
Is Trump actively trying to start his new term where he left off the last term? Rising prices, a recession, people raging in the streets, and a deadly pandemic.
Seems like that’s his goal.
Literally yes. I mean, his goal, is to feel like a big boy who can wield an army to silence dissent. The goal of the wealthy around him is to fully dismantle the country so only they are left to pick up the pieces.
it is, he wants martial law as an option to keep him out of prison once his term expires.
