Trump backs away from sending Federal Agents to San Francisco

Donald Trump will not send federal agents to San Francisco, the US President and the Mayor of the City said in the high places of social media on Thursday, which is surprising as Trump pressures the democratically led cities across the country to improve the enforcement of crime and illegal immigration.

The mayor of San Francisco, Daniel Lurie, a Democrat, said in a post that Trump called him Wednesday night to tell him that he was calling for any plans to transfer the state.

Lurie said the city will continue to work with state agencies to fight drug crimes, but that the “active war” won’t help.

“We are grateful that the President understands that we are a global technology hub, and when San Francisco is strong, our country is strong,” Lurie said.

Trump confirmed the deal in a social media post, saying the federal government was preparing for an operation in San Francisco but would cancel it.

“I spoke to Mayor Lurie last night and he asked, of course, if I was giving him a chance to see if he could turn it around,” Trump said. “The people of San Francisco have come together in the fight against crime, especially since we started dealing with that terrible story.”

The Republican president said two tech giants — NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff — called him “say the future of San Francisco is bright.”

Trump had indicated that San Francisco could be the next stop of the National Guard Troops he was sending to different American cities led by democracy, a move that was challenged in the courts.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported Wednesday that the Trump administration has sent more than 100 agents to the city to coordinate international enforcement.

US President Donald Trump threatened to use ‘dangerous’ cities as reasons for military training in a meeting rejected by top military officials in which he called the levels of war ‘circumcised’.

Protesting against the movement of the organization

Despite the apparent standoff, several US border vehicles arrived at a US Army base in the Bay Area on Thursday morning and were met by large protesters.

Demonstrators held signs reading “stop the drugs” and “protect our neighbors,” with one protester banging on the window of a truck as it drove by.

Federal agents ended up using lethal rounds to disperse the crowd, with protesters claiming that one person was wounded by a projectile and the other continued on foot.

Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee, a former member of Congress and Civils Alindlielind Actimetist, said in Televen’s words that they were divided and threatening.

“We will not allow outsiders to create chaos or exploit our city,” said Lee, democratically.

Trump aims to deport record numbers of illegal immigrants in the US, portraying them as criminals and a drain on US society.

Democrats in major US cities have criticized the crackdown, saying it intimidates law-abiding citizens, separates families and hurts businesses.

Trump has long been concerned about what he sees as rampant crime in San Francisco and has signed in recent weeks to send agents from there.

“We’re going to do San Francisco and we’re going to make it great,” Trump told FOX News on Sunday.
