Tensions in Los Angeles escalated as thousands of protesters took to the streets in response to President Trump’s extraordinary deployment of the National Guard, blocking off a major freeway and setting autonomous vehicles on fire.

Clashes between protestors and law enforcement turned violent in Los Angeles as demonstrations against ICE raids ramped up over the weekend. President Trump deployed the National Guard to the area, and the military confirmed to CBS News that hundreds of active duty Marines are now on standby to respond to the unrest.

Pete Hegseth said the Pentagon might mobilize active-duty troops. California Governor Gavin Newsom said it was "deranged behavior."
