Gov. Gavin Newsom says President Trump is "escalating the situation" by sending troops to L.A., adding fuel to the feud between the two

President Donald Trump has sent U.S. Marines to Los Angeles in an effort to quash anti-ICE protests that have ravaged parts of the city on Tuesday. Images from L.A. show masked protesters blocking roads,

The Guard’s arrival marks a potentially volatile phase in Trump’s push to ramp up deportations and in his contentious relationship with state and local authorities.

The LAPD said on social media that the people in the crowd were throwing "rocks, bricks, bottles and other objects" while they were near the federal building.

Los Angeles is one of hundreds of places across the U.S. seeing massive protests against the Trump administration, although L.A. has already seen a week of demonstrations against the immigration policies of President Trump.

The demonstrations come on the heels of protests flaring up around the country over federal immigration enforcement raids that began last week and Trump ordering National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles where protesters blocked a freeway and set cars on fire.

Masses of demonstrators packed into streets, parks and plazas across the United States on Saturday to protest Donald Trump.
