More demonstrations are under way in Los Angeles as the Trump Administration more than tripled the number of troops in the city and Gov. Gavin Newsom sued to stop him.

President Donald Trump has built his presidency around stretching the bounds of presidential authority, and his response to protests over an immigration crackdown in Los Angeles is no exception.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Tuesday requested a federal judge issue a temporary restraining order—and asked it be issued by 4 p.m. EDT— blocking President Donald Trump from deploying the National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles where anti-immigration protests have ensued in recent days.

Los Angeles residents and experts say that the National Guard's presence in Los Angeles in response to immigration protests is reminiscent of a long-standing dynamic in the state and around the country.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Tuesday defended the administration's mobilization of the National Guard and members of the Marine Corps to Los Angeles amid ongoing immigration protests.

The California Governor has sued the U.S. President over the mobilization of the National Guard, calling it “an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism.”

National Guard troops with riot shields pushed protesters into the streets, as tear gas was deployed and less-than-lethal rounds exploded in the roadway.
