Trump Deploys National Guard in L.A., Blames Violent 'Insurrection' Among Protesters
President Donald Trump has deployed National Guard troops to the Los Angeles area amid protests, framing demonstrators as violent insurrectionists bent on destruction.
US President Donald Trump has been trying to justify deploying National Guard troops to Los Angeles by framing peaceful protesters as 'violent insurrectionists' bent on destruction, despite a lack of evidence supporting this narrative. This characterization is widely seen as an attempt to dehumanize and demonize the protesters. The move has sparked widespread criticism and outrage from civil rights groups and lawmakers who argue that it undermines democratic values and threatens public safety. Trump's actions have drawn comparisons to authoritarian regimes that use military force to quell dissent.
