Trump Calls for 1-Year Jail for US Flag Burners Amid California Protests
President Donald Trump has called for a mandatory one-year jail sentence for anyone caught burning the American flag, emphasizing this stance during a speech at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He criticized protesters in Los Angeles for burning the flag and accused them of carrying foreign flags instead of American ones, calling for stronger law enforcement and deployment of thousands of National Guard troops to restore order amid anti-immigration protests. Trump also faulted California Governor Gavin Newsom for his handling of the unrest, suggesting Newsom could face criminal charges for failing to uphold his duties and describing him as incompetent. The President's administration is reportedly working with senators to pass legislation to criminalize flag burning. The protests, triggered by immigration enforcement actions, have prompted clashes between demonstrators and law enforcement in multiple cities, including Los Angeles, Dallas, and Austin. Despite criticism from California officials, Trump defended the federal military deployment as necessary to protect federal property and personnel.
