Protests against U.S. President Donald Trump's anti-immigrant policies continue in Los Angeles, California, as the decision has been made to send Marines to the area.
According to reports based on unnamed sources, it is claimed that the Trump administration will deploy 700 Marines due to the protests.
TO BE SENT WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF THE GOVERNOR AND MAYOR
Reports state that the Marines will join the National Guard units in Los Angeles without the approval of California Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass. Like the National Guard units, the Marines to be deployed are prohibited from engaging in law enforcement activities such as arrests unless the Trump administration invokes the Insurrection Act.
TRUMP HAD DEPLOYED 2,000 NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS
Trump had signed a Presidential Memorandum deploying 2,000 National Guard troops following intensified protests after Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) conducted detention operations targeting immigrants at various locations in Los Angeles.
So far, approximately 300 National Guard troops have been deployed to the streets of Los Angeles.
TRUMP LEFT THE DOOR OPEN
Regarding the protests in Los Angeles, Trump directly targeted California Governor Gavin Newsom, stating, "They didn't have the courage to do anything, we sent the National Guard." Trump accused Newsom of "losing control of the state," and described Newsom's threat to file a lawsuit against federal authority as "comical and political."
In response to a journalist's question about what crimes Newsom had committed, Trump said, "I think his primary crime is being a gubernatorial candidate because he did a terrible job." Expressing that he does not want a civil war, Trump added, "I don't want a civil war; if necessary, we will send more troops to Los Angeles." In response to a question about whether the Marines would be deployed to California, Trump said, "We'll see what happens. I think everything is under control."
EVENTS CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT
In Los Angeles, U.S., protests and violent actions in support of irregular immigrants have continued for three days, with events persisting last night.
According to footage shared on social media, protests and actions continued throughout the night in various parts of the city.
Masked protesters were seen setting fire to trash containers on some streets and avenues in the city center, while tensions were recorded between passing vehicles and demonstrators.
The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) declared the city's main center an illegal gathering area and warned protesters to leave the Civic Center area where the protests were taking place early this morning.
LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell described the level of violence in the city as "disgusting," sharing that some protesters responded to police with Molotov cocktails and commercial-grade fireworks late last night.
Images shared on social media also drew attention to some protesters carrying the Mexican flag.
PROTESTS IN LOS ANGELES
As protests continue in Los Angeles in support of irregular immigrants detained by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), strong statements have come from the Trump administration.
Many protesters have been detained during anti-ICE protests, and clashes have occurred between security forces and protesters at times.
President Trump announced that he had deployed the National Guard to control the situation in Los Angeles and blamed Democratic officials for the events in the area.
California Governor Gavin Newsom stated on MSNBC that he would oppose Trump's federal takeover of the state's National Guard without the consent of the California state government and announced that they would file a lawsuit against the federal government.
Newsom claimed that since Trump announced he had taken over the National Guard, he has been "pouring gasoline on the fire," describing this action as "illegal, immoral, and unconstitutional."
