Demonstrators turned out in Los Angeles to oppose ICE raids. Trump called in the National Guard.

Over the weekend, President Donald Trump ordered 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles to intervene in protests over federal immigration sweeps.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) called the move “unconstitutional” and on Monday sued the administration.
“Let me be clear: There is no invasion. There is no rebellion,” California Attorney General Rob Bonta (D) said in a statement. “The President is trying to manufacture chaos and crisis on the ground for his own political ends.”
Today on “Post Reports,” host Colby Itkowitz talks with Supreme Court reporter Justin Jouvenal about the move – the first time in about 60 years that an American president has taken such action without a governor’s consent, and a chilling sign that Trump is prepared to send troops into other cities in response to protests.
We also hear from reporter Arelis R. Hernández about the people detained by ICE, and the people who turned out to defend them.
Today’s show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Maggie Penman, with help from Lucy Perkins. It was mixed by Sean Carter. Thanks to Ariel Plotnick, Peter Bresnan, Efrain Hernandez Jr. and Susan Levine.
