- The deployment came after protests erupted in response to federal immigration actions, which local leaders condemned as a dangerous federal overreach that could escalate tensions.
- During protests, demonstrators blocked freeways and federal detention centers, leading to rising tensions characterized by fires, projectiles, tear gas, rubber bullets, and dozens of arrests by police and federal agents.

- The situation highlights deep divisions over federal involvement and raises questions about policing strategies, as experts note that aggressive responses often worsen protests instead of calming them.
