Los Angeles Police Order Immigration Protesters Downtown to Go Home
- California Governor Gavin Newsom responded defiantly to immigration enforcement threats by telling federal immigration official Tom Homan to go ahead and arrest him amid rising tensions in Los Angeles on Sunday.
- The controversy arose after the Trump administration sent approximately 300 National Guard members into the Los Angeles area without approval from the state governor to manage protests sparked by recent immigration enforcement actions.
- Demonstrators set multiple Waymo autonomous vehicles on fire and clashed with law enforcement, who designated the entire downtown Los Angeles area as off-limits to gatherings on Sunday night.
- Newsom formally demanded the troop withdrawal and rescindment of the deployment order, declaring, 'Let's just get it over with, tough guy,' while criticizing the administration for creating chaos in the city.
- The events heightened tensions between federal and state leaders, leading Newsom to announce his intention to take legal action against the administration regarding the deployment of troops, with additional lawsuits anticipated.
