Protests erupted in Los Angeles, Paramount, and Compton against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids, leading to heightened tensions. The Trump administration responded by deploying the National Guard and Marines to restore order, labeling protesters as "violent mobs". This 60-day deployment is projected to cost $134 million. California's Attorney General filed a lawsuit, asserting the federal government overstepped its bounds by ignoring local law enforcement and misapplying legal statutes intended for actual invasions or rebellions. Notably, SEIU California leader David Huerta was arrested during these confrontations but has since been released.
Protesters have been confronting authorities in Los Angeles and surrounding areas due to ICE raids, revealing deep tensions between local and federal entities.
The Trump administration's decision to deploy the National Guard in response to protests over immigration raids has sparked legal challenges from California's state officials.
