Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass declared a local emergency and imposed a downtown curfew (8 p.m. to 6 a.m.) following days of intense protests against ICE raids, which led to vandalism, looting, and over 300 arrests. The unrest was fueled by President Donald Trump’s deployment of 4,000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines to enforce immigration operations—bypassing California Governor Gavin Newsom’s authority.
Newsom criticized the deployment, warning it threatens civil rights and escalates tensions. His emergency request to block the military’s use in ICE raids was rejected by a federal judge. Meanwhile, protests spread to other cities, including New York, where thousands rallied against Trump’s immigration policies, voicing fears for immigrant communities and denouncing the crackdown.
