President Donald Trump has deployed 4,000 National Guardsmen and 700 Marines to LA. But California Gov. Gavin Newsom and California Attorney General Rob Bonta are suing the Trump administration, saying they unlawfully "trampled over" California’s sovereignty when they federalized the California National Guard.

More demonstrations are under way in Los Angeles as the Trump Administration more than tripled the number of troops in the city and Gov. Gavin Newsom sued to stop him.

President Donald Trump has built his presidency around stretching the bounds of presidential authority, and his response to protests over an immigration crackdown in Los Angeles is no exception.

President Trump has authorized the deployment of 4,000 California National Guard troops and about 700 Marines to LA, despite Gov. Gavin Newsom's objections.

Trump watched the U.S. Army demonstrate a missile strike, a helicopter assault and a building raid at Fort Bragg on Tuesday.

The temporary restraining order request alleges the deployment “escalates tensions and promotes (rather than quells) civil unrest.”

Other Republicans support Trump's decision to deploy National Guard and Marines. Speaker Mike Johnson on Tuesday once again aligned himself with President Donald Trump, saying the president is "absolutely right" to send the National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles as protests over against Immigration and Customs Enforcement continue-- and sided with the president's criticism of California Gov.

Authorities swept in with flash-bangs and tear gas grenades to disperse hundreds of protesters in Los Angeles.
