Trump Plans Militarized Zone on California-Mexico Border
The Trump administration has announced the creation of a militarized zone along the California-Mexico border. This initiative involves transferring approximately 760 acres of public land to the Department of the Navy for enhanced border security operations, a move that has sparked controversy. While border crossings have decreased, local officials and civil rights groups have expressed concerns regarding potential threats to civil liberties and the blurring of lines between military and immigration enforcement. This move aligns with the administration’s broader efforts to tighten border security, including similar actions in other border states and the deployment of troops and military gear.
