Trump announces federal law enforcement to be sent to two cities

President Donald Trump said he will "surge" federal law enforcement officers to Chicago and Albuquerque, despite resistance from local leaders, as he adopts a hardline "law and order" mantle ahead of November's election.
In making the move, Trump is wading further into an effort to portray Democrats as weak on crime and unable to protect the citizens of places where they are in charge. He has ordered federal agents to tamp down on protests in Portland, Oregon, leading to chaotic tableaux and reports of unmarked vehicles snatching people off the streets. And he has warned he may order federal officers into other states and cities he deems insufficiently policed, even if governors and mayors in those places don't ask for help.
His attention in recent days has focused on Chicago, whose Democratic mayor said Tuesday she would not allow "Donald Trump's troops" into her city. Before he became president, Trump once railed against his predecessor for high crime rates in Chicago, but he now blames local officials for the scourge.
Using ominous rhetoric and dark language to describe cities run by Democrats as rife with crime and violence, Trump suggested Wednesday he had little option but to take steps those leaders haven't to save innocent lives.

    1. sad that dems are so corrupt that they care more about politics then they do about the people living with the violence.

    1. Its down to African Americans to behave themselves if they don’t they will play into Trumps hands and give him the chance to unite white America under a law and order ticket . I don’t think they are capable of understanding this .

    2. @William H Music 2020 CCP just got rid of muslim native Chinese and all the LBGTQ’s…. and if anyone survived the COVID 19, then CCP had plan B, the Dam, unleash the dragon… and Mother Nature was triggered!

    3. @Roger Melly behave ourselves? We have nothing to lose. Why should we care what white America thinks? We already know what they think. If it’s war they want, they will get a war.

    1. Show your anger towards the unamerican Trump CULT Ignorance in Washington D.C. this November America🇺🇸🗽

    2. @Danielle Adair ….good in a city that is being taking over by criminals and the leaders aren’t doing anything send in the troops

    1. @Tom Doran Well apart from those years where people were being sent to concentration camps in Europe of course .

  1. I want Chicago to get better but if you think they are going to make it easy your mistaken people will die 🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️

    1. People will die on both sides. Trump doesn’t care about that. He wants to do all this dumb stuff before they get him up out of there.

    2. Dinerokid 16 it’s going to be a warzone that the people in his unmarked force are not prepared for

    3. @CodeineBuyer I know but Trump in his dumb support base doesn’t care. He wants to do all this ignorant stuff before they put him out of office.

    4. @CodeineBuyer Because all that’s going to do is make the murder rate rise higher. Because Chicago had the worst murder rate back in the 80s and the 90s. Because the projects was nothing but the killing field for children.

    1. CNN SUX I just watched a video of them putting a kid in an unmarked van didn’t watch it on cnn either

    2. Square Hammer that would be themselves you uneducated prick! Like I said now we have an even playing field!

    3. Supposed to be homeland security agents but who knows. If they are hiring private contractors this will be an even bigger mess.

    4. @Danielle Adair …they are federal troops, you can look it up….funny how people could care less about the violence and so stuck on the fact that Trump is sending in the help

  2. Trump, the most tested man for Covid 19 in America, told his people to slow the testing down for the rest of Americans.
    Think about that…

    1. The worlds most insulated man is not wearing a mask and telling everyone else everything is ok while the virus spreads and the Death Toll climbs… GREAT LEADERSHIP Trump

  3. America elected a psychopath as their President and then get shocked on a daily basis that their President is acting like a psychopath.

    1. feuriger Stern that’s not enough. He needs to be charged with so many crimes, convicted, and receive the death penalty

    2. Hitler and his black shirts, Trump and his feds(militia). Mexicans/black/asian(people of colour) against Jews. I see some similarities.
      And don’t forget his obstruction to let witnesses testify for congress and the senate.

    1. @Michelle Neville This, exactly. It seems like everything republicans fear are exactly what republicans are doing, and not ever anythung Democrats have tried to do, not even remotely, yet they still blindly defend their gop overlords.

    2. Black supremacists will unite white ones . For every action there is an opposite reaction . One extreme breeds another .

  4. Trump is blowing up every bridge he crosses. He’s bringing the country down with him. What an evil tyrant.

    1. Eclipse The Gambling Ocelot Get your tongue outta Joes fart box dogs do that!😂🤣🤣🤣TRUMP2020

    2. timeless It’s called draining the swamp !! Now you libtards go play your sword fights in the park and let the man do his job!

    3. @Inde nmc yeah ill find a nice safe bunker if Biden gets elected. Biden is the reason statues are being torn down and building are being burnt to the ground. His only supporters are the mobs.

    1. J yes they are. States rights. 10th amendment. Trump needs permission from at least the governor to send in federal troops against American citizens. As he doesn’t, these soldiers can legally be detained by the state indefinitely until trump rescinds the order

  5. When British writer George Orwell published a dystopian novel called 1984, he had seen, at age 45, both World Wars, the rise of fascism in Italy, the rise of Adolf in Germany; the invention of airplanes, television, antibiotics, along with atomic power, guided missiles, napalm.

    1984 takes place in Airstrip One (formerly Great Britain), in the superstate of Oceania, a country embroiled in a seemingly never-ending war. Individualism and independent thought are persecuted as “thoughtcrimes” by the Thought Police. The people are controlled by the elite, privileged Inner Party, whose cult-personality leader is referred to as Big Brother. And hey, the government even has its own invented language: Newspeak. Sound at all familiar?

    “If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—for ever.”
    — George Orwell, 1984

    “Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party (Trump) is always right.”
    — George Orwell, 1984.

    In George Orwell’s novel 1984, a thoughtcrime is the criminal act of holding beliefs that oppose or question the Party. Thoughtcrime is thinking of anything that the Thought Police and the Party deem is illegal. Doubting the party line, or thinking anything contrary to Party’s message

    Within Trump’s cult, he has a name for those who commit “thought crimes” like questioning his actions, and calling out his lies, Trump refers to these people as “never Trumpers.”

  6. History: “You people don’t listen, and you sure as he// don’t learn. How many more times must I repeat myself? For the umpteenth time, If you want to destroy a democracy, and create a despotic dictatorship, this is how you do it.”

    1. It’s always funny when people bring up history, ignoring the American history of accusing every president of being a dictator since the founding.

  7. Conservatives: “we need our guns in case the government becomes tyrannical!”
    The government: *becomes tyrannical*
    Conservatives: “yes! Go government! Throw protestors in unmarked vans with your secret police! Protect my right to not wear a mask! We love the government!”

    1. I’d rather be in Canada than America what with how Trump is probably gonna send in his personal militia to beat voters in November

    1. Vote biden then, a closeted bigot lol like malcome x said fear the white liberal. Educate yourself.

    2. @Yugetube: For a failed Administration, it’s more political than anything else. His term in office stinks to high heaven genius. More than 150,000 Americans have died from his DIRECT incompetence. What would it actually take for you to finally remove your head from his backside?

    3. Adam Taylor No Obumma did that by giving Hillary Secretary of State! How much Uranium did he sell to our enemies again?

    4. Theo Davis you watch too much cnn, its not your fault you are a consumer and consume too much tell lie vision. They basically embed the hatred for the president into your brain just because he is anti globalist. Fear the white liberal, they are using you for votes and thus pushing their racist agenda.
