National Guard troops arrive in Los Angeles on Trump’s orders to quell immigration protests

  • On Sunday, President Donald Trump ordered the mobilization of two thousand troops from the California National Guard to Los Angeles in response to protests related to immigration.
  • The deployment followed escalating immigration raids and protests, with Governor Gavin Newsom condemning the act as unlawful and claiming it inflames tensions without his consultation.
  • Local law enforcement maintained order and protected federal facilities amid street closures and clashes, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth placed Marines on high alert to support if protests worsen.
  • Trump commended the National Guard for their efforts in Los Angeles following several days of unrest, while Governor Newsom asked the federal government to cancel the deployment and restore state authority over the troops.
  • The deployment highlights federal-state tensions over immigration enforcement and the limits of troop use domestically, as the Guard supports ICE but cannot perform law enforcement without the Insurrection Act being invoked.
