Marines Could Be Sent to L.A. Protests, Hegseth Says
- President Donald Trump deployed about 2,000 California National Guard troops and ordered approximately 300 to the greater Los Angeles area amid ongoing immigration-related protests as of June 9, 2025.
- The deployment followed unrest triggered by immigration enforcement raids beginning Friday in downtown Los Angeles and spreading to nearby Paramount and Compton, with tensions high after recent sweeps.
- Federal troops arrived Sunday morning facing demonstrators who shouted insults as guardsmen formed lines behind riot shields near the Metropolitan Detention Center, while about 500 Marines from Twentynine Palms remain prepared to deploy if needed.
- Governor Gavin Newsom condemned Trump's actions as escalation, calling the threat to deploy Marines "deranged behavior," and urged protesters not to fall into the hands of extremists in a June 9 tweet.
- The situation suggests continued federal efforts to enforce immigration policies amid protests, with potential Marine deployment if violence persists, raising concerns over federal intervention in California.
