08.06.2025 โ‡ข The Day National Guard Overrode California
โŒจTrump escalated the Los Angeles immigration protests by federally deploying 2,000 National Guard troops, overriding Governor Newsom's objections in an unprecedented move. The deployment came after two days of clashes between ICE agents and protesters at workplace raids, including confrontations at Home Depot locations in Paramount where authorities used tear gas and flash-bang grenades.

Throughout the morning, officials disputed troop numbers - Trump claimed 2,000 while California reported only 300 arriving. By afternoon, Guard units positioned at federal buildings rather than patrolling streets. Evening brought renewed confrontations as protesters blocked freeway traffic and LAPD declared an unlawful assembly downtown, with more tear gas deployed.

The crisis created political theater, with masked protesters waving Mexican flags becoming what observers called "perfect propaganda for Trump." ABC suspended correspondent Terry Moran after his late-night social media attack on Stephen Miller. Trump banned face coverings at future protests and refused to rule out deploying Marines, declaring "They spit, we hit."

02:05โ‡ขFederal Troops Override California Governor

โŒจThe newspapers report on Trump deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles over California Governor Newsom's objections, following escalating clashes between ICE agents and protesters (ABC News, Boston Globe, CBS, The Epoch Times, Fox News, LA Times, NY Post, NYTimes, The Hill, AP News, HuffPost, USA Today). The standoffs occurred at multiple locations including Home Depot in Paramount, where federal agents used tear gas and flash-bang grenades against demonstrators who threw concrete and blocked enforcement operations. Trump administration officials accused LAPD of waiting two hours to respond to what they described as a violent mob of 1,000 people, while the White House announced the federal deployment Saturday night through press secretary Karoline Leavitt. The action represents an unprecedented federal override of state authority, with Newsom opposing the National Guard deployment as immigration enforcement protests enter their second day across the Los Angeles area.

10:26โ‡ขFederal Troops Override California Governor

โŒจThe newspapers report on Trump deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles under federal authority, overriding Governor Newsom's objections as immigration enforcement protests escalate (ABC News, CBS, CNN, The Epoch Times, LA Times, NPR, NY Post, Newsweek, The Hill, Washington Post, AP News, The Daily Beast). The deployment follows a second day of clashes where protesters confronted ICE agents during workplace raids, with authorities using tear gas and flash-bang grenades to disperse crowds. Trump criticized California officials as "incompetent" and announced a ban on face coverings at future protests, while federal authorities released criminal records of some arrested migrants to justify the operations (Fox News, NY Post). Newsom condemned the federal takeover as "purposefully inflammatory" and warned it would escalate tensions, marking an unprecedented federal override of state National Guard authority during immigration enforcement operations.

Donald Trumpโ€™s attacks on environmental regulation and the administrative state are part of a right-wing class war โ€” one that pits patriotic citizens against perceived liberal experts defending whatโ€™s left of the New Deal order.

13:54โ‡ขNational Guard Deploys to Los Angeles

โŒจThe newspapers report on National Guard troops arriving in Los Angeles after Trump federalized 2,000 California National Guard members to respond to anti-ICE protests (ABC News, CNN, MSNBC, NPR, NY Post, NYTimes, AP News, HuffPost, USA Today). Governor Newsom condemned the federal takeover as "purposefully inflammatory" and warned it would escalate tensions, while Trump used his Truth Social platform for late-night posts criticizing the demonstrations (The Daily Beast). The deployment represents an unprecedented federal override of state National Guard authority, with troops now on the ground after two days of clashes between protesters and immigration enforcement agents. Meanwhile, Ivy League institutions consider coordinating their response to Trump's attacks on higher education, while commentary pieces examine Trump's broader assault on administrative agencies as class warfare (Boston Globe, Jacobin).

16:55โ‡ขNational Guard Lands in Los Angeles

โŒจThe newspapers report on National Guard troops arriving in Los Angeles following Trump's federal deployment order, with sources disagreeing on troop numbers - the Trump administration claims 2,000 while California's governor reports around 300 (Boston Globe, CBS, CNN, LA Times, NYTimes, AP News, USA Today). The deployment responds to ongoing protests against ICE workplace raids, with confrontations between demonstrators and immigration agents prompting federal intervention. California Governor Newsom criticized the deployment as "posturing" by the Trump administration, while Los Angeles Mayor Bass called it unnecessary theatrics (LA Times). Media coverage reflects sharp political divisions, with conservative outlets describing "violent riots" and liberal sources characterizing them as protests over immigration enforcement (Breitbart, Fox News vs. Common Dreams, MSNBC). Separately, ABC suspended senior correspondent Terry Moran after his late-night social media rant against Trump adviser Stephen Miller, with White House officials and Vice President Vance criticizing the network's coverage (NY Post, The Daily Beast).

President Donald Trump seeks to send a message that, unlike past presidents, he does not derive his powers from our laws. Rather, as the monarchial unitary president of Justice Samuel Alitoโ€™s dreams, he will use his power to set and enforce our laws solely as he sees fit.

19:28โ‡ขNational Guard Takes Federal Buildings

โŒจThe newspapers report on National Guard troops establishing positions at federal buildings across Los Angeles, with the Trump administration and California Governor providing conflicting deployment numbersโ€”2,000 versus 300 troops respectively (CBS, CNN, NPR, USA Today, AP News). The streets remained largely quiet Sunday morning despite expectations of continued protests, with troops staging at government facilities rather than patrolling neighborhoods (AP News, Washington Post, NYTimes). House Speaker defended the deployment as proportionate rather than "heavy-handed," while Representative Maxine Waters called for protest crowds to "grow and grow" in defiance of the federal response (Newsweek, LA Times). The dispute reflects broader tensions over immigration enforcement authority, with Governor Newsom condemning Trump's action as creating a "spectacle" and complete overreaction to what his office compared to typical sports celebration disturbances (HuffPost, Fox News).

22:43โ‡ขTear Gas Flies in Los Angeles

โŒจThe newspapers report on escalating confrontations in Los Angeles as National Guard troops deployed tear gas against protesters outside federal buildings, with tensions rising hours after their arrival (Washington Post, AP News, CNN). Trump defended the military deployment with aggressive rhetoric, stating "They spit, we hit" and refusing to rule out sending Marines to California (MSNBC, ABC News). The protests created symbolic moments that drew political commentary, with masked demonstrators waving Mexican flags becoming what observers called "perfect propaganda for Trump" and easy talking points for Republicans (NY Post). A Democratic Representative's vulgar confrontation with ICE officers prompted Republican calls for her expulsion from Congress (Fox News). Media coverage reflected the administration's broader approach, with The Atlantic characterizing the Los Angeles deployment as "dress rehearsal" for future challenges to Trump's authority, while the administration simultaneously canceled an $87 million MIT startup award (The Atlantic, Boston Globe).
