Marines Could Be Sent to L.A. Protests, Hegseth Says
- Protests against recent ICE raids in southern California led to clashes with police in Los Angeles on Saturday and an arrest in Paramount on Sunday.
- The unrest followed last week's ICE raids across southern California, which sparked outrage and prompted President Trump to order 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles.
- Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated the National Guard and potentially Marines would support ICE, while California officials criticized the threat to deploy active-duty Marines as deranged behavior.
- The National Guard arrived Sunday morning to quell unrest after two days of violence, with Trump praising their 'good job' and House Speaker Mike Johnson affirming the need to maintain rule of law.
- The deployment indicates a federal escalation against anti-ICE protests, with officials warning Marines could be mobilized if violence continues and the Guard may remain for 30 days.
