Nationwide protests broke out in the US after federal invasions to Los Angeles led to dozens of arrests and caused outrage over what many have described as militarized recovery and violations of civil rights. President Donald Trump deployed thousands of soldiers and defended this step as needed to restore the order, while indicating the invoking of the uprising law. The mayor of Los Angeles Karen Bass declared an emergency situation and imposed a ban on walking and criticized the limited role of the army. California Governor Gavin Newsom questioned the deployment in court and escalated tension with the White House. How the demonstrations spread to more than a dozen cities. Police clashes, mass arrests and growing political opposition continue.
Here are 10 key developments from nationwide riots caused by immigration raids and the federal intervention that followed.
1. Trump deploys units, prevents action
US President Donald Trump has deployed more than 4,000 National Guard soldiers and 700 Marines to Los Angeles in the middle of protests and said about social truth: “If our soldiers did not go to Los Angeles, it would burn to the ground right now.”
In Fort Bragg, he described the protesting “animals” and a “foreign enemy” that promised to “liberate Los Angeles”.
Demonstrations began on Friday after federal immigration agents arrested dozens of Los Angeles workers.
The protesters blocked the main highway and set fire to the vehicles. The police responded with tear gas, rubber bullets and grenades with lightning.
2 .. The mayor declares an emergency situation, sets a ban on walking
The mayor in Los Angeles Karen Bass announced the local emergency situation and imposed a night ban: “We reached a turning point” after 23 companies were excluded, she said.
The prohibition of rising covers the area of 1 square kilometers and excludes residents, media and emergency staff.
3. The mayor challenges a military role
Bass criticized Trump’s claim that the soldiers had saved the city: “The National Guard did not even arrive until Sunday.”
“They are stationary in the federal building … They don’t check the crowd.”
She added, “What will the marines do? That’s a good question.”
4. The Trump Mulls uprising Act
Trump left the possibility of inducing the rebellion: “If there is an uprising, I would definitely evoke it. We’ll see. We’ll see. But I can tell you that it was terrible last night and the night before it was terrible,” Trump told reporters in an oval office.
This law allows the President to use military power in the US in extreme circumstances.
5th gov. Newsom is pushing back, going to court
California Governor Gavin Newsom condemned Trump’s actions and called them an “attack on democracy”.
Filed an emergency legal proposal to stop military assistance in promoting immigration: “California may be the first, but clearly ends here. Other states are another. Democracy is another.”
6. The presence of ice and guards expands
Photographs published by ICE showed units of National Guard protecting officers during raids.
The Minister of Inner Security Kristi Noem published: “ICE will continue to enforce the law.”
7. Downtown La: 197 arrest, injured 7 officers
LAPD carried out 197 arrests on Tuesday, June 10, of which 67 for blocking the highway 101.
The fees included vandalism, looting, attacking deadly weapons and attempted murder (Molotov Cocktail).
Seven officers were injured, two hospitalized and released.
8. Protests are spreading to a nationwide level
Gathering broke out in Seattle, Austin, Chicago, NYC and DC
In New York, arrests were carried out and the Austinian police used chemical irritants.
Saturday’s protests “No Kings Day” are planned to match Trump’s military parade.
At the beginning of Tuesday, Trump warned that they were coming more immigration raids and said that any future protests – including those at the upcoming show – will encounter an even stronger response.
If so, Trump said, “They will meet with very much power.”
“I haven’t heard of protest, but you know, these are people who hate our country. But they meet with very hard force.”

9. Demonstrations spread across American cities
Protests at the national level broke out against the LED air raids and immigration policy, and the police responded with arrest, tear gas and pepper spray.
About 150 protesters marched from the Federal Detaining Center to the ice and back, some of which used wheels to block roads. Police arrested 15 people and quoted restless behavior and one case of aggravating attack. Two officers and two protesters suffered minor injuries.
About 200 demonstrators gathered outside the immigration court on Tuesday after two nights of riots, which recorded more than 150 arrests and police injuries. “Violence, especially against SFPD officers, will never be tolerated,” the police said, although March was described as “tremendously peaceful”.
About 50 people protested outside the immigration court and sang antines slogans. Legal observers and the media have been denied a court approach.
The crowds in Lower Manhattan gathered near federal immigration buildings. In the midst of a heavy police presence, singing rang like “Ice Out of New York”. Several protesters were taken into custody, although the accusations were not immediately released.
Demonstrators marched to the city center and called for deportations and federal military commitment. There was a car at one point, but no injuries were confirmed.
Demonstrators with signs against ice gathered in the state of Capitol and divided into groups to block traffic. The police initially maintained a minimum presence and later monitored from behind.
A small crowd showed up near the Civic Center when the cleaning crews removed graffiti and remnants. Armed troops of the National Guard controlled access to federal buildings. Counter-Protester in Maga Gear exchanged words with the crowd.
The Texas National Guard was deployed in anticipation of protests. “Soldiers are in standby regime in areas where mass demonstrations are planned,” Gov said. Greg Abbott.
The protests became violent when the demonstrators evaluated buildings and threw the rocks. Police used pepper balls and tear gas. Four officers were injured, 13 people were arrested. “Peace protest is welcome. Violence is not,” said police chief Austin Lisa Davis.
The protest of the bridge ended in a police intervention after the objects were thrown away. One arrest was confirmed. “Once you cross the border, you will be arrested,” Gov warned. Abbott.
Hundreds protested against the arrest of the head of David Huerta. “Protect our neighbors,” he read one character. AFL-Cio President Chrissy Lynch said, “The immigrant is not standing among the American worker and good work, billionaire.”
The Union and the legislators protested nearby. Rep. Jayapal said, “Enough of these mass raids on ice … Innocent people are sweeping and the protesters meet with tear gas and rubber bullets.”
10. Price of $ 134 million for military commitment
