Protesters threw projectiles, incendiary bottles, and set cars on fire, while riot police responded with tear gas, sound bombs, and pepper spray grenades. Faced with this escalation, President Trump ordered the deployment of the National Guard—approximately 2,000 troops—without approval from California Governor Newsom, citing Title 10 of the U.S. Code and an act of rebellion against the United States government that would justify the federal executive taking control of the California National Guard to ensure law enforcement. On Sunday, June 8, hundreds of federal soldiers and agents patrolled federal buildings (Hall of Justice, ED Royal Federal Building), while the National Guard also appeared in front of City Hall. Authorities declared unlawful assemblies, made dozens of arrests, and used tear gas and canisters to disperse the crowd. In total, more than 300 arrests were made, around 100 people were taken into custody, and numerous injuries were reported, including police officers, protesters, a photographer, and a union leader. Protesters chanted 'ICE out of LA,' blocked Highway 101, and set vehicles on fire. Mexican flags were raised, and anti-ICE slogans were spray-painted on federal buildings. Politically, the federal measure has been heavily criticized: California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass have called it illegal and a violation of Californian state sovereignty. Democratic lawmakers denounce the political exploitation of the crisis. Republicans, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, on the other hand, defend the deployment as necessary to restore order. This is the first time in over 60 years that a US president has deployed the National Guard against citizens without the consent of a state governor. These incidents extend a national debate on the role of ICE, the use of military force against protests, and the protection of civil rights. Tensions persist in Los Angeles, and also in other communities, where President Donald Trump is threatening further military deployments. #LosAngeles #riots #Protest #ICE #Trump #LA #LARiots #ICERaids #immigration #USA #Politics #Deportations Subscribe to follow all the latest news filmed on the ground without commentary: https://youtube.com/clpress?sub_confi...

May I ask a question? First of all, I do not think that mobbing is a good means of protest. I am absolutely against violence. In the first place, this issue is only about illegal immigrants who have not gone through the proper procedures, and it has nothing to do with those whose status has not expired or who have been approved for permanent residence, right? I believe that illegal immigrants are at fault, no matter what I think. Why do they get to live in someone else's country without permission and fly the flag of their home country or even burn and spit on the American flag? Don't they have any sense of gratitude for being allowed to live here? It was an image that I could never understand. >hr> Peter Burgess COMMENTARY For me, Donald Trump's concept pf America is a rather pathetic little failure of a country. More than anything else ... a reflection of himself! I am an old man ... 85 years old and getting older very year! The good news is that I am a lot 'wiser' than a lot of younger folk ... including a lot young people who Peter Burgess |
