Protests in LA Over Immigrant Arrests Continue, Trump to Deploy National Guard

US President Trump has announced plans to deploy the National Guard to quell protests in Los Angeles. The decision follows a second day of demonstrations in the city. California Governor Newsom strongly opposes the deployment.

Protesters took to the streets again to oppose the arrest and deportation of immigrants. Clashes occurred in some areas, particularly in the southeast, where a car was set on fire and shop carts were scattered. Police used tear gas and flash grenades to disperse the crowds.

Trump has ordered 2,000 National Guard troops to address what he calls "lawlessness" in California. Governor Newsom criticized the move, calling it "deliberately inflammatory" and unnecessary.
