2,000 other national guard troops in service in los an

The United States government will activate 2,000 additional national guard troops in Los Angeles, the army confirmed in a statement on Tuesday evening, while legal battle continues on deployment.

The demonstrations against federal immigration policies that have exploded in Los Angeles and across the country in recent weeks have been dead, and A nighttime curfew was lifted While companies return to normality.

However, the North American command said reinforcements were to “support the protection of federal functions, staff and goods in the Grand Los Angeles region”.

The 2,000 soldiers are deployed to the management of the Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, using title 10, which allows the president to call the National Guard when the country risks invasion or rebellion.

This means that at least 4,100 troops in the National Guard and 700 navies were deployed in the streets of the after 2,100 was sent there on June 9. Tuesday’s declaration confirms that a press release last Monday on the increase in troops.

Soldiers cannot participate in civilian police services, which led city leaders to attack deployments as a political theater.

“The soldiers are undergoing training on de -escalation, control of crowds and the use of permanent rules for the use of force before joining the federal protection mission,” the military statement said.

Governor Gavin Newsom condemned the move and said the troops “were in their thumbs”.

“This is not a new deployment-it is the same group of soldiers who have been diverted from critical work of forest fires and work on the border, now turning their thumbs for Donald Trump’s political theater,” said Diana Crofts-Pelayo, spokesperson for Newsom.

Newsom said last week That the deployment of additional staff of 2,000 people would be “reckless, useless and disrespectful towards our troops”.

The mayor of Karen Bass described the deployment of “chaotic climbing”.

Confirmation of additional personnel occurred a few hours after the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments that the federal government can deploy troops in American cities, or should give its order to Californian officials.

THE The court heard and ruled last week That President Donald Trump can keep the troops command, pause from the District Court of District Charles Breyer who said that the deployment was illegal.

Tuesday’s hearing examined whether the most recent ordinance could arise as the affair passes before the courts. The panel of three judges did not seem to be little interested in raising the break which was imposed by the Court of Appeal.

This court should make a decision in the coming days, before a Friday hearing before judge Charles Breyer at the Federal Court of San Francisco.

The decision of the Court of Appeal – and any potential involvement of the Supreme Court – could have enormous ramifications for the powers and activities of the political executive in Washington and if the troops can be sent to other cities.
