Column: Isn’t the President supposed to drive criminals?

It strikes literal thoughts as unreasonable, but I think Huntington Park Mayor Arturo Flores, a veteran of the sea of ​​Iraq and Afghanistan, have a righteous point when he declares A news conference Of the Mayors in Southern California that immigrants surrounded by immigration and custom implementation of communities such as his “Americans, though they were not.”

“The President continues to talk about a foreign invasion,” Flores told me on Thursday. “He continued trying to paint us like the other. I said, ‘No, you’re facing Americans.’

California estimate 1.8 million unwrapped immigrants living among us for many years, for many years, working and paying taxes here, who sent their children to America here, have all the responsibilities of citizens minus. Yes, technically, they violate the law. (For that matter, so is President Trump, a felonand he continued to violate constitutional daily, as belonging Mounting Court losses testified.)

But the document in our region in the Mexican region and Central American immigrants will never be involved in our lives. They take good care of our children, build our homes, dig our drains, take away our trees, cleanse our homes, hotels and businesses, wash our dishes, Choose our plants,, Sewing our clothes. Many small businesses, payments to mortgages, attend universities, increases in their professions. In 2013, I wrote Sergio GarciaThe first never-written immigrant admitted to the California Bar. Since then, he has been a US citizen and owns a strong law of heart.

These Californians are farther away less violent law than the native Americans, and they do not deserve The reign of the terror Due to their administration of Trump administration, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Defense Secretary Pete Hegsth, with no reason for the Marines.

“So we started listening to the administration wanting to follow gang gang members, drug dealers,” Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass saidorganizing the Mayors’ news conference last week, “but if you attacked the house and children’s depot, you didn’t seek to keep fear.

And please, we do not forget to gather the Congress and prevents a Bipartisan reform Immigration reform under President BidenTrump asked Republicans because he didn’t want a reasonable policy, he wanted to keep the democrats in the issue.

But it seems to have more to go here than rounding non-document immigrants and intimidating their families. We seem to have entered the “Punishment of California” Phase Trump 2.0.

“Trump has Hyperfocus in California, how to hurt the economy and causes the chaos, and he doubles the right campaign,” Flores told me. He has a point.

“We remain here to release the city from socialist and heavy leadership placed by this governor and this mayor in the country,” Name told reporters Thursday at a Westwood Federal Building conference, where California Sen. Alex Padilla Fighting on the ground and bound the face for daring to ask him. “We don’t go.”

So now we talk about the regime’s change? (As the previous Tribate of the Harvard Laurence Tribe law Put it in BlueskyUsing military force aims to list selected democratic leaders “is the definition of a coup.”)

Naem’s toxic mix of intentional ignorance and inflammatory rhetoric almost ludicicrous. It is mainly in the hand of Trump’s Silly declaration That our city was set up in riots, without the military patrol of our streets, Los Angeles “is a crime scene,” and that anti-ice protests.

Our found news and our neighborhood was the intentional spraying of fear, trauma and stimulating real estate claims for more Trump states that were in his autocratic wishes.

For weeks, Trump is plotting to deprive California – Perhaps illegal funding for federal funding for public schools and universities, discussing resistance to his executive participation, and participation, etc.

And yet, because he might be the most unaware of the state of the world, he suddenly realized that California’s economic control could be poor politics for him. On Thursday, he suggested himself a thousands of ways of dismissing the state farms and hospitality of the state workers who caused the pain of his friends, their employers. (Central Valley Growers and Agribusiness Pacs, for example, more supported by Trump at 2024.)

“Our farmers hurt so much, you know, they have very good workers. They work for them for 20 years,” Trump says. “They are not citizens, but they have done, you know, well. And we have to do something about that.”

Like many Californians, I feel helpless before this attack of immigrants.

I think about a Guatemalan, a father of three young born Americans, with a waste. I met him a few years ago at my local house depot, and hired him some times to get the detritus at home. Once, then I couldn’t get the city to help, he took a small amount of sand in Dune at the end of my road that became local pee pads.

I call him this week – I have a lot of things I have to take, and I’m sure he can use the job. Early Friday morning, he reached the time with two workers. He said it wasn’t able to work in two weeks but he was expected to get back to depot at home.

“How are your kids?” I asked.

“They worry,” he said. “They asked, ‘What do we do if you are exiled?'”

He told them to be ignored, that things will soon come back to normal. After he returned, texting: “Thank you so much for helping me today. God bless you.”

No, God bless him. For working hard. For a good father. And for confidence still, against difficulties, in American dreams.
