The National Guard has entered the city.

Large and violent protests against President Donald Trump's immigration controls continue for a third day in Los Angeles, with California National Guard troops deployed in the streets.

As Reuters writes, the National Guard guard guard guarded federal government buildings while police tried to quell the rallies. Meanwhile, videos taken on the streets of the city show protesters throwing at police. concrete debris and bottles. About four dozen people are reported detained.

At the same time, California Governor Gavin Newsom said he had asked the Trump administration to withdraw its order to deploy the National Guard to Los Angeles County, calling it illegal.

In a social media post on Sunday, Trump called the demonstrators "violent, riotous mobs" and said he had instructed his officials to "take whatever action is necessary" to stop the "unrest."
