President Donald Trump further tightened his grip on Los Angeles on Monday by deploying a fresh batch of National Guard troops to quell protesters.
Trump has mobilized an additional 2,000 National Guard as protests against immigration raids dragged into their fourth day, according to California Governor Gavin Newsom and chief Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell.
“At the order of the President, the Department of Defense is mobilizing an additional 2,000 California National Guard to be called into federal service to support ICE & to enable federal law-enforcement officers to safely conduct their duties,” Parnell said on X Monday night.
