Trump deploys 2,000 National Guard members after Los Angeles immigration protests
- President Trump signed a memorandum directing the deployment of two thousand members of the National Guard to the Los Angeles area in response to recent immigration enforcement actions and subsequent protests throughout the city and surrounding communities.
- The deployment followed two days of federal immigration enforcement activity, including arrests and confrontations at locations like a Home Depot in Paramount and downtown federal buildings.
- Protesters clashed repeatedly with law enforcement, leading police to declare unlawful assemblies and make multiple arrests amid tear gas and flash-bang usage during protests at the detention center and other sites.
- Governor Gavin Newsom criticized the federal response as "purposefully inflammatory" and said the move would "only escalate tensions," while Mayor Karen Bass stated no troops were currently in the city but thanked local law enforcement.
- The troop deployment aims to address lawlessness that the federal government says has been allowed to fester amid protests, but local leaders warn of increased tensions and emphasize peaceful protest rights.
