About 300 members of the National Guard were on the scene. <\/p>\n<p>Protesters managed to halt vehicles on the busy 101 highway near City Hall, snarling traffic and prompting officers to fire a barrage of flash-bang devices. Several self-driving Waymo vehicles were set on fire.<\/p>\n<p>By nightfall, police had made dozens of arrests and the Los Angeles Police Department had issued an \u201cunlawful assembly\u201d declaration to clear downtown streets.<\/p>\n<p>After the deployment of National Guard troops on Sunday, California Governor Gavin Newsom accused the Trump administration of a \u201cserious breach of state sovereignty\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It was the first time since 1965 that a US president had deployed a state\u2019s National Guard without being asked by the governor.<\/p>\n<p>Over the weekend, Trump invoked a rarely used law designed to repress invasions and rebellions to send in the troops, a move deemed unnecessary by local law enforcement officials and decried by Newsom as \u201cinflammatory\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>The US president justified the move on Sunday with incendiary language: \u201cA once great American City, Los Angeles, has been invaded and occupied by Illegal Aliens and Criminals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On his Truth Social platform Trump claimed, without evidence, that \u201cviolent, insurrectionist mobs are swarming and attacking our Federal Agents to try and stop our deportation operations\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The large protest in downtown Los Angeles drew a crowd of thousands, some waving Mexican flags and carrying signs that said: \u201cImmigrants Make America Great\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>When some protesters tossed water bottles at police, others in the crowd yelled: \u201cDon\u2019t throw things \u2014 this is what Trump wants you to do!\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The unrest in the second-largest US city followed sweeps of businesses by federal agents, who arrested dozens of people suspected of being illegal immigrants. <\/p>\n<p>On Sunday evening, Trump did not rule out sending in marines after defence secretary Pete Hegseth threatened the move on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re going to see what we need,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cWe\u2019ll send whatever we need to ensure there\u2019s law and order.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In his Truth Social post, Trump said he had ordered officials \u201cto take all such action necessary to liberate Los Angeles from the Migrant Invasion, and put an end to these Migrant riots\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Deploying up to 2,000 guardsmen will test the ability of heavily Democratic states to resist the Trump administration\u2019s agenda and protect their citizens from its enforcement actions.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"n-content-image n-content-image--full\" data-component=\"image-set\"><picture><source media=\"(min-width: 700px)\"  width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\"><\/source><source media=\"(max-width: 490px)\"  width=\"1580\" height=\"1580\"><\/source><\/picture><figcaption class=\"n-content-picture__caption o3-editorial-typography-caption\"><span>Security forces stand guard outside the Paramount Business Center in the Compton area of south Los Angeles on Sunday<\/span><span> <!-- -->\u00a9 Jill Connelly\/Reuters<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Trump\u2019s decision to \u201cfederalise\u201d the National Guard \u2014 or transfer it from state to federal control \u2014 was highly unusual. It was last done in 1992, when then-president George HW Bush sent guardsmen to Los Angeles to control riots following the beating by police of Rodney King. In that instance, the Guard\u2019s assistance was requested by California\u2019s governor, Pete Wilson.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This time Trump overruled the wishes of Newsom, a frequent target of the president.<\/p>\n<p>Newsom, in a post on X, said the Trump administration made the decision to deploy the National Guard \u201cnot because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle\u201d. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nanette Barrag\u00e1n, a Democratic member of Congress whose district includes the areas of southern Los Angeles that witnessed many of the protests, told CNN that Trump was \u201csending in the National Guard because he doesn\u2019t like the scenes. He doesn\u2019t like the scenes of people peacefully protesting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Barrag\u00e1n said officials in Los Angeles had been told by the federal government to \u201cget ready for 30 days of enforcement\u201d, while border tsar Tom Homan told NBC that \u201caround 150\u201d undocumented immigrants had already been detained in the city over the past two days.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"n-content-image n-content-image--full\" data-component=\"image-set\"><picture><source media=\"(min-width: 700px)\"  width=\"2289\" height=\"1526\"><\/source><source media=\"(max-width: 490px)\"  width=\"1526\" height=\"1526\"><\/source><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/infundpros.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/https:\/\/d1e00ek4ebabms.cloudfront.net\/production\/4eb160cf-3420-492b-936a-33bd6f8cd106.jpg\" alt=\"Protesters stand face-to-face with a line of police officers in riot gear.
