A federal judge will hold a hearing on Thursday over California’s request to block the Trump Administration from using troops in Los Angeles to quell unrest sparked by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids as part of the President’s mass deportation effort.

By Jane Ross, Idrees Ali, Phil Stewart and Brad Brooks LOS ANGELES/WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. military will temporarily deploy about 700 Marines to Los Angeles until more National Guard troops can arrive,

Mayor Karen Bass said Sunday that Los Angeles does not need National Guard troops to bolster city police amid protests against raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, despite violent incidents.

In response to the protest in Los Angeles, President Trump called in the National Guard, but a federal judge in California ruled the Trump administration took control of those troops illegally and that he must return control to the governor.
