‘Bring in the troops’ - that’s the message from U.S. president Donald Trump as protesters continue to take a stand against his immigration crackdown and mass deportation efforts. ⁣ ⁣ Demonstrations escalated on Sunday in a third day of unrest over Trump’s decision to deploy the national guard - sent in to protect federal buildings, including the downtown detention center where protesters convened. ⁣ ⁣ It’s the first time in decades that a state’s national guard was activated without a request from its governor.⁣ ⁣ Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass blamed the increasingly inflamed protests on Trump's decision to deploy the Guard.⁣ ⁣ They've both urged protesters to remain peaceful.⁣ ⁣ #LAprotests #Trump #Nationalguard #immigration
