A federal judge has ruled that Trump\u2019s National Guard invasion in Los Angeles was illegal \u2013 and issued a dire warning that Trump wants to create \u201ca national police force with the President as its chief.\u201d [1]\r\n<\/p>\r\n

Now, D.C. local government is taking Trump to court too \u2013 arguing his hostile takeover of the capital is flat-out unconstitutional. [2]
\r\n<\/p>\r\n

We\u2019ve been saying this all along: Trump wants the power of a dictator, not a president, and he\u2019ll trample all over your rights and mine to get it. Now, instead of backing down, he\u2019s doubling down<\/strong> \u2013 even after he lost in court.\r\n<\/p>\r\n

Who\u2019s next on his target list? He has threatened Memphis, Chicago, Baltimore, and New Orleans<\/strong> \u2013 overriding local officials and silencing residents who never asked for armed troops patrolling their streets. [3]\r\n<\/p>\r\n

And if it\u2019s anything like his occupation of Los Angeles and Washington D.C., deploying the National Guard won\u2019t do a thing to make people any safer \u2013 but will instead violate residents\u2019 rights, militarize our communities, and threaten his political opponents to fall in line.\r\n<\/p>\r\n

History shows that if Congress doesn\u2019t stop him now, Trump will keep escalating until we don\u2019t have a democracy <\/strong>anymore. He\u2019ll keep making up emergencies so he can treat our neighborhoods like war zones \u2013 and no city will be off limits.\r\n<\/p>\r\n

Add your voice to tell Congress to act NOW and stop Trump from sending troops to invade our cities.<\/strong>\r\n<\/p>
