Trump deploys 2,000 National Guard members after Los Angeles immigration protests
- On Sunday, June 8, 2025, about 300 California National Guard members deployed outside the Roybal Federal Building in Los Angeles amid ongoing protests.

- President Trump ordered at least 2,000 Guard troops deployed under his federal authority despite objections from LA Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Gavin Newsom.
- Trump stated, "If they can't do their jobs, we will," and Border Chief Tom Homan said, "We're making Los Angeles safer," while arrests reached 118 and counting.
- The deployment aims to restore order but risks escalating tensions, as local officials criticize federal actions and protests are expected to continue.
