LA Democrat on Trump Troop Deployment: ‘He Wants the Show’
- On June 10, hundreds of U.S. Marines, along with about 2,100 National Guard members, were deployed to Los Angeles following directives from President Donald Trump amid continuing demonstrations over immigration policies.
- The deployment followed several days of protests against intensified Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids that began on Friday, prompting California Governor Gavin Newsom to seek court intervention to limit troop use.
- Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass declared a local emergency, imposed an 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew on parts of downtown, and condemned the military presence as unnecessary and corrosive to the city.
- Trump justified the deployment of military forces, arguing that without sending the National Guard, the city of Los Angeles would be in chaos, while officials such as Attorney General Rob Bonta expressed legal concerns regarding the use of federal troops in civilian law enforcement roles.
- The situation has led to legal challenges against the federal deployment, continued peaceful and limited protests, and criticism from state officials who consider the response an overreach and politically motivated.
