Following two days of protests, National Guard troops were seen staging at a federal building in downtown Los Angeles on June 8. The deployment comes hours later after Prez Trump announced plans to send 2,000 National Guard troops in response to escalating demonstrations. Protesters gathered across Los Angeles over the weekend to oppose federal immigration raids, chanting slogans such as "ICE out of L.A.!". Federal agents clashed with demonstrators in the Paramount area on Saturday, where some protesters carried Mexican flags amid rising tensions. At one point, protesters threw pieces of broken concrete at law enforcement, prompting officers to respond with tear gas and flash-bang grenades.
