Police declared all of downtown Los Angeles to be an unlawful assembly area and ordered protesters to go home on Sunday night after a third day of violence hit demonstrations against President Donald Trump's immigration policy.

"This Administration's actions are not about public safety — they're about stoking fear,” the former vice president wrote on social media.

The Trump administration is sending 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles after two days of isolated clashes between federal immigration agents and protesters.

Governor Gavin Newsom said the U.S. President “manufactured” the chaos in Los Angeles to distract from challenges and seize power.

President Donald Trump deployed the National Guard to California following escalating violence among some anti-ICE protesters in Los Angeles.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom asked the Trump administration to rescind the deployment, saying the federal government was moving to "take over the California National Guard," calling the move "purposefully inflammatory" and saying it will "only escalate tensions."

Several hundred soldiers were deployed to the streets of Los Angeles on Sunday, as demonstrations against President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown raged.

The Guard’s arrival marks a potentially volatile phase in Trump’s push to ramp up deportations and in his contentious relationship with state and local authorities.
