Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass announced a curfew in response to escalating violence linked to protests against Donald Trump's immigration enforcement actions. Following vandalism of 23 businesses, the curfew will restrict movement from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. During this time, law enforcement aims to maintain order, with a significant presence of various security forces. While Trump denounces protesters as 'animals' and insists that the city faces invasion, local authorities emphasize that unrest is mostly confined to a few downtown blocks, countering claims of widespread chaos.
"A brief stroll down a handful of streets is enough to see the robust and diverse official presence. They wear blue, black, khaki, or camouflage uniforms."
"We will not allow federal agents to be attacked, and we will not allow an American city to be invaded and conquered by a foreign enemy."
