The arrival of 800 American National Guard soldiers in Washington, DC under the direction of President Donald Trump has been designed as “powerful push” by the nation’s capital mayor.
Trump cast his decision to include the National Guard in Washington and placed the city’s police force as a crime under the supervision of Terry Cole, the Attorney General Palm Bandy and the head of the Drug Enforcement Administration. He is calling the move “Mukti Divas” and claims that the city needs to protect the city from “crime, bloodshed, badge and squall”.
If they do not reveal their own local crime issues, they have been named as future goals, including New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and Baltimore.
But Federal Data contradicts with contradictions, Statistics show that violent crime is at a 30 -year lowCritics say that based on it, there is no emergency situation that requires military attendance in the capital.
Washington Mayor Muril Boseer said, “The number does not just justify this remedy.”
So if the crime in Washington is going down, then why intervene?
“It looks, if you look at the data, [like] The crime is going down, “Laura Dicinson, a law professor at George Washington University, US, said.” City officials have not sought help [from the president] So this is the real best suspect. ,
“This is real -problematic and contrary to our tradition in the United States, where we have been very cautious about using the army to perform law enforcement tasks,” Dicinson said.
Why is Donald Trump doing this?
In the part, because he can do.
Washington, DC (who stands for Columbia district) is not part of any American state and roughly comes under the jurisdiction of the federal government.
Under the Home Rule Act of 1973, the President can control the DC police during the emergency for 30 days, without the approval of the Congress. And because it is a federal enclave, the President is therefore commanding the city’s National Guard.
Some American comments have noticed that the step may be a political effort to distract from the ongoing controversy related to Epstein files and the release of jobs data that saw an increase in inequality. Trump’s popularity in its major policy field – especially in immigration – recently refused.
While Trump and his colleagues have indicated the city’s crime as the justification for the move, his opponents inside and out of the Congress say the action is designed for accurate control over cities that do not support them. Congratulations Black Cocks, who currently have no Republican members, so all are led by Trump as possible goals in cities nominated by Trump. “Clearly grab racist and low power.”
Blue state and city are opposing the thesis move, but can they oppose the President?
The presidency has fewer powers outside the country’s capital. Governors of 50 US states preside over the National Guard within their boundaries.
This is an important difference that a law professor at William Banks, the University of Syrakuse, US, said that it is more difficult to follow through danger to expand the intervention beyond the federal enclave of Washington, DC for Trump.
“It would be senseless, I think it should normalize this example and apply to other places in the United States,” banks told DW.
“He cannot go to Chicago or Philadelphia or New York City or Los Angeles and can do the same thing. He simply occupies.”
How to send a National Guard to Trump Los Angeles?
But what in June, when he posted the National Guard and Marine in Los Angeles?
Banks stated that there are commissions for limited intervention to protect federal property and personnel, but Trump “was very ice.”
“What is their argument that they needed to ensure that the protesters did not destroy the federal property or damaged ice and other immigration personnel, who are on the ground under their jobs.”
While they can protect federal assets, military personnel are prohibited from actively using domestic policing by the Pose Committees Act. In California, the three -day test is investigating whether the deployment of the National Guard was in violation of this law, and the potentially unconstitutional, recently wrapped with a decision pending.
Dickinson said that the use of military forces by the federal government in American cities can affect so much how these institutions are considered by the public.
Dickinson told DW, “It can harm the person and respect that Americans have for military and national guards.” “Thesis is some of some of the institutions in the United States that enjoy very broad bipoly support.”
What is the possibility of happening next?
The federal command of the DC Police ends after 30 days, unless the Republican-controlled Congress approves in detail. The National Guard can remain active indefinitely.
Despite playing an alarm by Trump’s opponents, who are calling the move a ruling flex, banks hope that there is more likely to return to the status quo, especially when it is threatened by OTH states.
Hey United States founding history is overthrowing the British Army, and law enforcement should be maintained by the civil police, it is important to understand what the Americans will accept in their communities.
Banks told DW, “Our situation is no hope of military partnership in law enforcement in the United States.” “We do not like military uniforms on our streets, we do not like men and women with patrolling guns on our streets, it just rubs against grains.
“Pos commentatus codes that theory, but I think the ideal is even more important and more original.”
