United States Army North confirmed to ABC News that Marines at the Wilshire Federal Building have made the first temporary detention among the troops sent to Los Angeles on Friday.

Los Angeles residents and experts say 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.

The organized opposition was timed for the day President Trump is hosting a rare U.S. military parade in Washington that's taking place on his 79th birthday.

Demonstrators flooded Los Angeles streets and freeways Sunday near a protest at the Metropolitan Detention Center following a declaration by the Los Angeles Police Department that the assembly was "unlawful.

McCrory said the state is put in a “precarious position” when a governor and mayor aren’t willing to work with the president.

Maj. Gen. Scott Sherman said 500 National Guard members have been trained to accompany agents on immigration operations.

More than 1,500 events were announced throughout the U.S. to send a loud message to President Donald Trump: “In America, we don’t do kings.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — National Guard troops already have temporarily detained civilians in the Los Angeles protests over immigration raids, the commander in charge said Wednesday, but they quickly turned them over to law enforcement.

Snopes has fact-checked many claims that have spread related to the protests, such as whether videos show a man committing several acts of violence, whether the California Democratic Party bought pallets of bricks for LA protesters ( originated as satire ), and whether a Craigslist ad proved the protests were orchestrated.
