PRESIDENT Donald Trump has ordered 2,000 National Guard troops into Los Angeles as federal immigration raids erupted into chaos.

The development is a result of several intense days marked by confrontations between Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and demonstrators, escalating tensions over immigration enforcement.

The President’s immigration chief, Tom Homan, confirmed the deployment Saturday evening on Fox News.

“We are going to bring the National Guard in tonight,” he said.

“We are making Los Angeles safer.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that “active duty Marines” are on “high alert” and prepared to deploy from Camp Pendleton if violence persists.

This significant escalation followed incidents where protesters threw burning objects, ignited cars, and surrounded federal vehicles in reaction to ICE raids aimed at undocumented migrants.

Threatening to send in the Marines, Hegseth wrote on X: “The violent mob assaults on ICE and Federal Law Enforcement are designed to prevent the removal of Criminal Illegal Aliens from our soil… and a huge NATIONAL SECURITY RISK.”
