Official Statements from Karoline Leavitt Regarding Recent Civil Unrest

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt openly characterized the majority of individuals involved in the recent border protests and violent protests in Los Angeles as ‘violence supporters‘. She provided a comprehensive overview of the numerous individuals detained during these incidents and emphasized the severity of the situation by stating, “These acts of violence have not only targeted law enforcement officers but also aimed at undermining American cultural values and societal stability.” She further condemned the actions of the rioters, highlighting that they burned American flags, and reaffirmed President Trump’s firm stance: “The President will never tolerate the rise of gang rule or lawlessness taking over our nation.”

Response to Questions About Peaceful Protests During Military Parade

When asked whether President Trump would permit peaceful protests during Saturday’s military parade, Leavitt responded with confidence: “Of course. The President fully supports the right to peaceful assembly and expression. What a stupid question!” Her remarks underscored her support for First Amendment rights, distinguishing peaceful protests from violent acts.

Use of Federal Military Force to Restore Order

Leavitt explained that President Trump has exercised his legal authority by deploying the National Guard in California under the provisions of Article 10. She clarified that this action was legally justified and taken because local authorities in Los Angeles were unable to curb the escalating violence effectively. She stated, “The decision to mobilize federal troops was necessary to restore order and ensure public safety amidst the chaos.”

Criticism of Local Authorities and Justification for Federal Intervention

Furthermore, Leavitt criticized the Democratic-led administrations of Los Angeles and California, asserting that they are ‘not strong enough to suppress violence’. She argued that it is entirely understandable and justified for President Trump to intervene with federal forces to maintain law and order in the city. Her remarks reflect a broader perspective that local officials have failed to handle the unrest adequately, necessitating federal intervention to protect American citizens and uphold national stability.
