'Enemy within' Trump's military trampling of dissent was only a matter of time
The Guardian Weekly
|June 13, 2025
Donald Trump walked out to a thunderous standing ovation as Kid Rock’s American Bad Ass boomed from the sound system. He watched martial artists slug it out behind a chain-link fence. A female champion let the US president try on her gold belt. It was a night of machismo, spectacle and violence.
Shortly before he joined an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) event in Newark, New Jersey, last Saturday night, Trump signed an order deploying 2,000 national guard troops to Los Angeles, where protests sparked by immigration raids led to clashes between authorities and demonstrators.
The White House said Trump was sending in the guardsmen to “address the lawlessness that has been allowed to fester” in California. Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, said the move was “purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions”. Experts said it was the first time in 60 years that a president has activated a state’s national guard - a reserve military - without a request from his governor.
