The federal government has responded to protests in Los Angeles with a theatrical display of power. President Trump ordered National Guard troops to the city, responding to anger over ICE's actions toward undocumented immigrants. Protests erupted as ICE targeted neighborhoods, drawing backlash from immigrant communities. The violence was sporadic, and the LAPD eventually restored order. Despite a peaceful atmosphere the following day, the administration's actions have been perceived as politically motivated spectacles instead of genuine solutions to the unrest.
The administration's approach to managing unrest in Los Angeles has been characterized as a series of orchestrated appearances and theatrical pronouncements, lacking a connection to reality.
ICE officers, claiming to target criminal migrants, paradoxically conducted operations in places like Home Depots and car washes rather than actual crime hotspots.
