La Guardia Nacional ha comenzado a patrullar las calles de Washington después de que el presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, declarara la emergencia criminal. También ha ordenado a las tropas que desalojen todos los campamentos de personas sin hogar antes de que acabe la semana.

Washington

The U.S. President has declared a crime emergency in Washington, DC, seizing control of local police and deploying the National Guard and FBI to address rising violence and property crime. On the first night of the operation, authorities made nearly two dozen arrests and seized several handguns, while also beginning efforts to dismantle homeless encampments in the city.

The decision has received both support and criticism, with some viewing it as necessary and others raising concerns about the use of federal troops for political purposes. The White House invoked the Home Rule Act, allowing for a 30-day period of federal control, after which the situation will be reassessed. Legal challenges are ongoing regarding similar deployments in other cities, potentially setting precedents for future actions.

La Guardia Nacional empieza a patrullar Washington

Una demostración de fuerza en el Monumento a Washington después de que el presidente de EE.UU. tomó el control de la policía local, por primera vez en la historia del Capitolio. Necesitamos más ley y orden en una ciudad asolada por la violencia, la delincuencia y los asesinatos, robo de propiedades. Donald Trump ha declarado la emergencia criminal en Washington, ha activado la Guardia Nacional y también ha llamado al FBI. Es hora de la acción dramática. La Casa Blanca dice que en la primera noche, 850 oficiales y agentes del FBI hicieron casi dos docenas de arrestos... e incautaron seis pistolas. La alcaldesa de Washington cambia de tono tras calificar inicialmente de inquietantes las acciones de Trump. Cómo hemos llegado hasta aquí o qué pensamos sobre las circunstancias en este momento, tenemos más policía y queremos asegurarnos de que los estamos usando. La medida de Trump cuenta con cierto apoyo. Me encanta. Creo que esto debería haberse hecho hace tiempo. Pero no sólo está tomando medidas contra la delincuencia. Trump quiere sacar a los sin techo de la ciudad y está desmantelando campamentos esta semana. Y si se niegan, podrán ser multados o encarcelados. Fledgit Rippey dice que su casa se quemó, refugios locales están llenos, por lo que está durmiendo en un banco del parque. Danos un hogar. ¿Qué te parece? ¿Qué tal si le damos un hogar a la gente que lo necesita? Sólo quieres echarnos a las ratas. Trump también ha puesto a otras ciudades gobernadas por demócratas sobre aviso de que podrían ser las siguientes, como Chicago. Es una de las mayores amenazas para la humanidad que hemos visto en toda una generación. Ese movimiento no sería sin precedentes. Trump desplegó la Guardia Nacional en Los Ángeles en junio en contra de los deseos del alcalde. Y era innecesario. Y para mí, todo se redujo a ser un truco. Y no creo que deban usar a nuestras tropas para trucos políticos. Un juez federal escuchó argumentos en California el martes para determinar si la administración Trump violó la ley en ese caso. El juicio podría sentar un precedente sobre cómo Trump podría desplegar estas tropas en el futuro. Ashley, ¿qué sabemos sobre cuánto tiempo podría durar esto en Washington? Christine, Trump utilizó algo en Washington llamado la Ley de Autonomía, que le da 30 días. La Casa Blanca dice que cuando el reloj se agote, se reevaluará. Trump vuelve a poner a prueba los límites de sus poderes presidenciales para militarizar una importante ciudad estadounidense. Ashley Burke, esta noche en Washington.
