Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has announced a curfew in the city in response to vandalism amid the protests against ICE raids. The curfew will be enforced from 8 p.m. local time Tuesday to 6 a.m. Wednesday, and anyone who breaks the curfew will be arrested, Bass warned.
Donald Trump flirted with invoking the Insurrection Act, which allows the domestic use of the military, in remarks on Tuesday in the Oval Office. The president has already deployed thousands of federalized National Guard troops and 700 Marines to Los Angeles in response to protests over his immigration raids.
The total cost of the deployment to date has been disclosed as $134 million, with Trump claiming that without them, the city “would be burning to the ground right now.”
Bass has dismissed those claims, given that the Guard is protecting two federal buildings and local law enforcement has been quelling civil unrest triggered by ICE raids. She has vowed to pursue vandals and looters to the fullest extent of the law after more stores were looted on Monday.
California Governor Gavin Newsom, who claims the presence of troops exacerbates tensions, has asked a judge for an emergency injunction regarding the troop deployment, arguing it is “unlawful,” as well as “excessive and unnecessary.” A hearing is set for Thursday.
Speaking to soldiers at Fort Bragg on Tuesday afternoon, Trump accused the mayor and governor of paying “agitators” and “insurrectionists” who he claimed came ready with bricks to throw.
Trump has since seemed to walk back his claims, saying, “I didn’t say the governor or the mayor. I said, somebody's paying them, I think.”

California Governor Gavin Newsom has taken another jab at President Donald Trump in their ongoing feud over the Los Angeles protests against ICE raids in the city.
Newsom said in a major address Tuesday night, “I know many of you are feeling deep anxiety, stress and fear. But I want you to know that you are the antidote to that fear and that anxiety.
What Donald Trump wants most is your fealty. Your silence. To be complicit in this moment. Do not give in to him.”
In an unprecedented move, Trump deployed thousands of National Guard troops and 700 Marines to Los Angeles without Newsom’s permission in response to the protests.
Newsom claimed the move was illegal and a “brazen abuse of power” Tuesday night.
The governor said that the “situation was winding down” in Los Angeles before Trump deployed the military.
“But that’s not what Donald Trump wanted,” Newsom claimed.
Trump has claimed that without deploying the military, Los Angeles “would be burning to the ground right now.”

Kim Kardashian has shared a message of support on Instagram Tuesday night for immigrants in Los Angeles amid mass protests against the Trump administration’s ICE raids in the city:
“When we're told that ICE exists to keep our country safe and remove violent criminals-great. But when we witness innocent, hardworking people being ripped from their families in inhumane ways, we have to speak up. We have to do what's right.
Growing up in LA, I've seen how deeply immigrants are woven into the fabric of this city. They are our neighbors, friends, classmates, coworkers, and family. No matter where you fall politically, it's clear that our communities thrive because of the contributions of immigrants. We can't turn a blind eye when fear and injustice keep people from living their lives freely and safely.
There HAS to be a BETTER way.”
Kardashian has praised President Donald Trump in the past, saying she was “very grateful” after he commuted the sentence of Alice Johnson, a woman serving life in prison for a nonviolent drug offense, in 2018.

This could dramatically impact the state’s education system, as schools receive $8 billion from the federal government each year.

Hegseth tells Congress his ‘war fighters’ are primed for ‘lethality’ ... as he sends them to face American protesters

Richard Hall writes:
Pete Hegseth’s first congressional hearing as Defense Secretary was supposed to focus on budgetary matters, but the former soldier was not going to miss an opportunity to strike fear into the hearts of America’s enemies — in this case, a few hundred protesters in Los Angeles.
In his opening statement to the House Appropriations subcommittee, Hegseth delivered a made-for-Hollywood monologue about the U.S. military’s new “warrior ethos,” one that is focused squarely on “war fighting” and “lethality.”
So deadly are the soldiers under his command that the word “soldier” no longer suffices. In Hegseth’s Department of Defense, they are “war fighters” — a term he used repeatedly, implying an army of perpetually deployed and exhausted Rambo figures always searching for targets to shoot.
As he spoke, some 700 of these deadly war fighters had already left 29 Palms Marine base in the Southern California desert and were getting ready for their first deployment under his command.
Their destination? The deadly war zone of Los Angeles. Their target? The flag-waving street protesters who have wrought havoc on a few city blocks, prompting desperate calls for help from no one in the state.

Business owners in the Little Tokyo neighborhood - where some of the most intense clashes between police and protesters occurred late on Monday - were washing graffiti off storefront windows and sweeping up litter on Tuesday.
Every building on Little Tokyo's main streets was hit with graffiti, with the exception of a public defender's office that stood untouched.
A store owner who did not want to give her name, fearing reprisals, said it was frustrating that the neighborhood full of immigrants was paying the price of the protests against federal immigration agents.
Frank Chavez, 53, manager of an office building in the neighborhood, was sweeping glass shards from an entrance door that had been shattered after midnight by a young masked man wielding a skateboard, according to security video that Chavez showed a Reuters reporter.
"I agree with what the protesters are defending - they're standing up for the Latino community," Chavez said. "But there are a few carrying out vandalism and violence, and that must be stopped."
Chavez and other business owners said they did not support the LA immigration raids and felt Trump's response to the protests was only fanning the flames.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Tuesday criticized Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum for comments that she said encouraged violence at protests in Los Angeles, drawing a rebuke from the Mexican leader, who denied the claims.
At a press conference on Monday, Sheinbaum criticized violent acts during the protests against immigration raids and asked U.S. authorities to respect the rule of law while policing migration.
“Claudia Sheinbaum came out and encouraged more protests in L.A., and I condemn her for that,” Noem told reporters at the White House.
“She should not be encouraging violent protests that are going on,” Noem added. “People are allowed to peacefully protest. But the violence that we're seeing is not acceptable, and it's not going to happen in America.”
In a post on X, Sheinbaum said Noem “mistakenly mentioned” that she encouraged violent protests, which was “absolutely false.” Sheinbaum then shared a video of her original comments on Monday.

The Trump administration’s brief response to California Governor Gavin Newsom’s motion for a temporary restraining order is in, and the Department of Justice is asking for 24 hours to “finalize declarations necessary to expose certain of Plaintiffs’ allegations as false and demonstrate the irreparable harm to the Defendants if the Court were to enter the proposed order.”
It reads in part:
Plaintiffs’ motion is legally meritless. It seeks an extraordinary, unprecedented, and dangerous court order. If entered, Plaintiffs’ proposed order would jeopardize the safety of Department of Homeland Security personnel and interfere with the Federal Government’s ability to carry out operations. Plaintiffs’ request that this Court supervise the President and Secretary of Defense’s management of military forces is itself highly unusual and indeed non-justiciable under constitutional principles. The Court should reject Plaintiffs’ suggestion that this Court enter an order—on a one-sided record and without hearing from Defendants—on a subject of grave importance that implicates the separation of powers.
