The Trump administration has deployed the California National Guard in response to protests in Los Angeles that began Friday evening over immigration enforcement operations, which resulted in some clashes between demonstrators and authorities,

Protesters clashed with law enforcement in Los Angeles on Sunday after Trump deployed National Guard troops over the objections of Gov. Newsom.

The Guard’s arrival marks a potentially volatile phase in Trump’s push to ramp up deportations and in his contentious relationship with state and local authorities.

Demonstrators have "ignited" vehicles in downtown Los Angeles, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. In a statement posted on X, the LAPD said it was "attempting to enter the area to extinguish the fire".

Trump slammed Gov. Gavin Newsom, who previously called Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to California “deranged.”

What started as a small protest against immigrant arrests escalated over a few days, after President Trump called in the National Guard.
