The District Court of Northern California determined that the employment of the National Guard and the Navy in Los Angeles by the Trump administration violated the Federal Law.
Will this ruling avoid that the Trump administration sends us to thousands of elements of the National Guard and the Marines? Why would we be entrusted, if the order of another Los Angeles judge so as not to make arrests based on the racial profile have not respected them? On the contrary, migration agents continue to teach with the most vulnerable workers such as day laborers. Up to three and four times they have attended the same parking lots of the Home Depot stores in Los Angeles and San Bernardino to make their fierce, passing the resolution of a federal judge through the Arch of Triumph.
Meanwhile, what is in the hands of local authorities either. More than a month since Mayor Karen Bass announced that they would give cash with foundations of foundations to the families affected by the raids, the promised assistance has been left alone in a speech, when it was said that that week of the announcement, it would begin to flow.
Then the supervisors delayed a crucial vote for two weeks to give help to these same families. Supervisors such as Holly Mitchell do not seem or do not want to realize the economic emergency that the families of lavacarros and day laborers live that are on the verge of joining the army of homeless that swarms the streets of Los Angeles. Hopefully the supervisors vote in favor of the motion of the Supervisor Lindsey Horvath to give a little respite to families who have not been able to pay the rent, since ICE agents specialize in arresting family suppliers.
High cost
What expensive is going out to Los Angeles taxpayers the failure to address the problem of helplessness.
In 2020, the organization The Alliance He sued the municipal authorities for doing very little to find a home to the homeless; An agreement was reached between the parties to remove the camps and give the homeless roof.
But it turns out that the city has fallen short in the agreed treatment; And to defend himself, the city’s lawyer, Hydee Feldstein Soto hired the firm Gibson Dunn & Crutcher which agreed to charge $ 900,000 for up to three years of work, but they have left with that they have spent $ 3.2 million. Then the municipal prosecutor is asking the Council to approve $ 5 million more for these lawyers to continue with their defense.
Councilors such as Bob Blumenfeld expressed their disagreement because in the contract, it is specified that if the legal signature is passed from the negotiated amount of payment, they must notify them. But for what to bother, if the lawyers have already found their gold minita in municipal chests.
In the end, all this leads us to the irresponsibility of our own authorities to solve the problem of helplessness. It is not an easy matter, but when they assumed office, they knew what they faced. His inability is coming quite face to the Angels.
An interesting fact is that the legal firm for which Feldestein Soto is asking for more money from the Angelino council, is the same one that has donated thousands of dollars to his campaign for the city prosecutor. Where is the Ethics Commission of the City of Los Angeles?
An act of revenge
President Trump took Kamala Harris with the protection of the Secret Service, but it was immediately announced that Caminos Patrol officers would give him protection. Normally vice presidents receive protection during the next six months at the end of their mandate, while the presidents are protected by the secret service for life.
However, in the case of Kamala, former President Biden authorized that six -month protection will be extended until July 2026.
Neither late nor lazy, it is a clear act of revenge, President Trump removed the protection of his exoponent.
