Military commander says 200 Marines moved into Los Angeles to protect federal property and personnel

  • Approximately 200 Marines have been deployed to downtown Los Angeles to guard federal buildings and staff, as part of a broader military presence in the area.
  • This deployment comes amid protests sparked by federal immigration raids and follows a court decision that temporarily prevented the transfer of authority over National Guard units back to California.
  • Gen. Scott Sherman said Marines finished civil disturbance training and will start operations at noon local time without participating in law enforcement activities.
  • Since Saturday, approximately 470 arrests occurred mostly for failing to disperse, with some charges for assault and possession of weapons, and nine officers were injured mostly mildly.
  • California Gov. Gavin Newsom called the deployment a breach of state sovereignty and power grab, and some Democratic governors condemned it as an alarming abuse of power.
