CNN Anchor Asks LA's Mayor If She's Out of Touch' When It Comes to Immigration Policy
Briefly

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass criticized President Trump's decision to federalize National Guard troops amid protests. She downplayed the likelihood of interference with federal agents and expressed a focus on city unity. Bass described the deployment as creating unnecessary fear and chaos, emphasizing Los Angeles's diverse immigrant population. She questioned the appropriateness of Trump's actions and shared that local sentiment might diverge from national polls supporting federal deportation policies. Bass aims to promote solidarity rather than division in response to federal actions.
"No, I'm not concerned about being arrested. And I can't imagine a situation where I am going to interfere with federal agents. This was not necessary."
"It has created a sense of fear. It feels deliberate. It's like, how can I deliberately create chaos in a city? Nobody needs that right now."
