HeadlineJun 12, 2025

A federal judge will hear California’s request today to limit the presence of National Guard and Marines deployed by Trump to Los Angeles to just guarding federal buildings. National Guard troops have been involved in detaining civilians and have been accompanying immigration agents on their L.A. raids, provoking fear and chaos across the city. Community-led protests continued for a sixth day Wednesday. Downtown L.A. was under curfew for a second night.
