LOS ANGELES
California National Guard arrived in Los Angeles on Sunday, deployed by President Donald Trump after two days of protests by hundreds of demonstrators against immigration raids carried out as part of Trump’s hardline policy.
About a dozen National Guard members were seen in video footage on Sunday morning lining up at a federal building in downtown Los Angeles, where detainees from immigration raids on Friday were taken, sparking protests that continued on Saturday.
The complex is near Los Angeles City Hall, where another protest against the immigration raids is scheduled for Sunday afternoon. US Northern Command confirmed National Guard troops had started deploying and that some were already on the ground.
“These Radical Left protests, by instigators and often paid troublemakers, will NOT BE TOLERATED,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform early on Sunday. page 5
