Trump Sends National Guard to quell LA Immigration Raid Unrest

Los Angeles erupts in unrest following immigration raids, prompting Trump's intervention. Tensions escalated in the Paramount area of Los Angeles after a series of immigration raids conducted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on June 6th. The raids resulted in 45 arrests, sparking protests and clashes between immigrant communities and law enforcement. The situation deteriorated rapidly, leading to two days of unrest. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass expressed concern, stating that the police response was "causing panic" amongst the residents. California Governor Gavin Newsom criticized former President Trump's decision to send in the National Guard, calling it a "provocative" move that could further destabilize the situation. However, Trump defended his actions on social media, claiming that if local authorities failed to control the situation, the federal government would step in. "If Bass and Newsom don't do their jobs, the federal government will intervene." The video captures some of the tense moments, showing National Guard troops moving through the streets. The incident highlights the ongoing debate surrounding immigration policies and the challenges faced by immigrant communities in the United States.
