A federal judge has declared President Donald Trump’s use of military troops in Los Angeles illegal, barring the Pentagon from using National Guard members and Marines from performing police functions, like arrests and crowd control.
In a 52-page ruling, U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer warned that Trump appears intent on “creating a national police force with the President as its chief.”
Breyer’s ruling bars the Pentagon from “ordering, instructing, training, or using the National Guard currently deployed in California, and any military troops heretofore deployed in California” from “engaging in arrests, apprehensions, searches, seizures, security patrols, traffic control, crowd control, riot control, evidence collection, interrogation, or acting as informants,” without demonstrating they have permission from Congress.
So here's where we are - unaccountable judges are overruling the dictates of the elected president but who's the threat to democracy? The elected guy.
ReplyDeleteJudges are not unaccountable. Thats ridiculous. And yiu only have issues with judges who rule against Trump too. You are just as biased as those you criticize
ReplyDeleteHave you ever heard of separation of powers? Judges are supposed to review the legality of actions of the executive branch. That's their job. You don't want them to do their job? Oh you just want them to not do their job when it impacts the president that you like
