President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of 2,000 National Guards troops to quell immigration protests in Los Angeles, overriding California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s objections in a rare move.

Protests continue in LA, and Trump has said he had to federalize California’s National Guard to “address the lawlessness.”

To quell protests in LA, Trump is relying on a directive under a rarely used federal law that gives him powers in times of rebellion.
