Protests against Trump expand: chaos in US cities!
Los Angeles, USA - Protests against the controversial migration policy of US President Donald Trump increases in the United States. Since Friday, June 9, 2025, demonstrations in several cities have been underway, starting in Los Angeles, where raids from the immigration authority ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) have been the trigger. The protests are organized by different groups, including unions and the 50501 movement, and have now also extended to cities such as San Francisco, Dallas, Atlanta, Philadelphia, New York and Chicago. Over 150 people were arrested in San Francisco at the weekend.
on Sunday, June 11, 2025, the situation in Los Angeles has been considering considerably. Governor California, Gavin Newsom, criticized the mobilization of 2000 national guards, who further fueled the situation. In the midst of the unrest, the police used tear gas, glare grenades and rubber bullets, which led to five injured police officers and around 150 arrests. The demonstrators, which mayor Karen Bass estimate on several thousand, went to the streets and blocked highways. Security forces were attacked with bottles and stones.
reactions and escalation of violence
Donald Trump doubled the troop shipment to 4000 and ordered 700 marine inventory to Los Angeles. These forces are used to secure federal buildings, but not directly against the demonstrators. Trump described Newsom and Mayor Bass as irresponsible and compared the situation with his earlier experiences in forest fires in which he complained.
criticism from different sides
The spokeswoman for the White House described the demonstrators in Los Angeles as "radical left -wing" and "illegal criminals". Among the critics, however, there are also voices from their own democratic party, such as that of Senator John Fetterman, who consider the use of national troops as unnecessary. In Texas, Governor Greg ABBOTT announced that the National Guard used to maintain order in protests against ICE. In Philadelphia, union members protested against the arrest of a union leader, which further fueled the tensions.
In addition, Trump was threatened to treat the situation with the Insurrection Act from 1807, which allows him to use regular troops in Germany. This would also be able to mobilize soldiers in other cities, which increases the risk of a larger conflict. In conclusion, it should be noted that the protests against Trump's migration policy and the raids continue to gain dynamics by ICE. According to reports, there are already plans for nationwide protests that are to take place in over 1,800 cities. This movement, known as "No Kings Nation Wide Day of Defiance", could further strengthen the tensions between the government and the citizens.For further information about the ongoing protests, visit the articles from vienna.at href = "https://www.fr.de/politik/proteste- gegen-trumps-migrationpolitik-breiten-sich-in-s-us-zr-93781064.html"> Frankfurter Rundschau and ZDF today .
