Those sweeps are part of a directive from President Trump to find immigrants living in the United States without legal status. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass at a Tuesday news conference said a rally is planned for Tuesday night but that it is not expected to be as large as the protests in recent days,

By Brad Brooks, Phil Stewart, Idrees Ali and Dietrich Knauth LOS ANGELES (Reuters) -Hundreds of U.S. Marines arrived in the Los Angeles area on Tuesday under orders from President Donald Trump, as the city's mayor declared a curfew for parts of the downtown area and police arrested 197 people in a fifth day of street protests.

At a peaceful vigil in downtown Los Angeles, interfaith community leaders came together for prayer, support and healing.

As protests continue in Los Angeles, hundreds of U.S. Marines have been deployed to the city as President Donald Trump and Governor Gavin Newsom spar over law enforcement response.

The protests began Friday after Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents carried out coordinated raids across Los Angeles, detaining dozens of workers at warehouses and other worksites. The arrests sparked immediate backlash, with demonstrators converging outside federal buildings, blocking freeways, and in some cases clashing with police.

President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of 2,000 National Guards troops to quell immigration protests in Los Angeles, overriding California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s objections in a rare move.

Trump's National Guard deployment to Los Angeles and recent comments signal more sweeping executive actions are possible. Is the Insurrection Act one of them?
