After Trump insisted since March that he couldn’t do anything to bring back a man his administration had mistakenly deported to an El Salvador prison, he caved. Kilmar Abrego Garcia is returning to the U.S. to face new charges.
If you didn’t hear much about that, it was probably because Trump ordered the deployment of National Guard troops to California amid L.A. protests over ICE raids. Even before they arrived, Trump posted on social media, “Great job by the National Guard in Los Angeles after two days of violence, clashes and unrest.” It’s unclear if Trump was confused or just trying to spread misinformation.
But one thing is for certain: The timing of Trump’s action isn’t a coincidence. On Saturday, he’s finally getting his Big Boy wish for a military parade and sending troops into a blue state is part of this show of force. And remember, if you do go to one of the more than 1,000 No Kings protests planned across the country on Saturday, stay vigilant and know your rights. For a refresher, here’s that video from Detroit attorneys with the National Lawyers’ Guild that Lincoln Square Editor Susan J. Demas referenced on the live with Founding Editor Lisa Senecal:
We have a week of great shows planned on Lincoln Square! Don’t miss a special edition of Anchor Watch with Bobby Jones at noon ET Tuesday. As a veteran, Bobby has special insight into Trump’s parade.
