-1/ **California sued the Trump administration for deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles without Gov. Gavin Newsom’s approval**. Attorney General Rob Bonta called the order was “unlawful,” arguing that federal law that limits such Guard deployments to cases of rebellion or invasion. “There’s no rebellion. There’s no invasion,” Bonta said. Trump, however, invoked Title 10 of the U.S. Code and claimed the ongoing protests over immigration raids in LA amounted to “a form of rebellion” against the government. He gave Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth control over the Guard and authority to use “any number” of troops to protect federal agents and facilities. So far, 300 Guard troops and 700 Marines have been deployed, with Hegseth warning: “If violence continues, active-duty Marines [...] will also be mobilized — they are on high alert.” The protests began Friday after ICE conducted a wave of immigration raids across Los Angeles County. Demonstrators shut down freeways, set cars on fire, and clashed with police, who used tear gas and flash-bangs. LAPD made over 30 arrests for offenses including looting, assault with a deadly weapon, and attempted murder involving a Molotov cocktail. Trump called the protesters “insurrectionists” and warned: “If they spit, we will hit [...] Los Angeles would have been completely obliterated.” Newsom, meanwhile, condemned the deployment as a political stunt. “This is the wrong mission and will erode public trust,” he said, adding that local authorities had the situation under control. “The federal government is taking over the California National Guard [...] not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.” The situation escalated further after Trump’s border adviser, Tom Homan, threatened to arrest Newsom and LA Mayor Karen for obstructing federal enforcement. Newsom responded: “Tom, arrest me. Let’s go.” Trump later backed the idea, saying: “I would do it if I were Tom. Gavin likes the publicity.” Bonta accused the administration of manufacturing a crisis. “The president is trying to provoke chaos on the ground for his own political ends,” he said. “We’re asking the court to put a stop to this unlawful, unprecedented order.” ([CNN](https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/09/politics/insurrection-trump-los-angeles-analysis) / [Associated Press](https://apnews.com/article/immigration-raids-los-angeles-2d1d5e2f638da600c4b34fe8bf8cf3aa) / [NPR](https://www.npr.org/2025/06/09/nx-s1-5427215/what-to-know-los-angeles-protests-ice-trump) / [New York Times](https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/07/us/trump-national-guard-deploy-rare.html) / [Washington Post](https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/06/09/california-newsom-trump-lawsuit-national-guard/) / [Bloomberg](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-09/california-suing-us-for-trump-use-of-national-guard-in-la-unrest) / [NBC News](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/california-ag-sue-trump-unlawful-national-guard-order-rcna211886) / [Politico](https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/09/donald-trump-on-arresting-gavin-newsom-id-do-it-00394530) / [Axios](https://www.axios.com/2025/06/09/newsom-california-suing-trump-immigration-protests) / [Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/world/us/white-house-aide-calls-los-angeles-anti-ice-protests-an-insurrection-2025-06-07/) / [Wall Street Journal](https://www.wsj.com/us-news/california-trump-lawsuit-national-guard-aea1d6e2) / [Washington Post](https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/06/07/los-angeles-immigration-protests-national-guard/) / [Bloomberg](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-09/la-set-for-fourth-day-of-unrest-as-newsom-resists-national-guard) / [NBC News](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/californias-governor-unfazed-threats-arrest-trump-administratio-rcna211752) / [Politico](https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/08/newsom-trump-national-guard-immigration-protests-la-00394110) / [Politico](https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/07/newsom-national-guard-los-angeles-00393526))
