• LAPD Metropolitan Division officers are assisting the California Highway Patrol on a round-the-clock detail for Harris, with roughly a dozen officers reassigned, according to multiple reports.
• The LAPD described the joint effort as temporary until an alternate plan is set, and sources told the Los Angeles Times the city will fund it for now.
• Governor Gavin Newsom’s office has not confirmed CHP authorization, while California officials including Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass criticized the federal revocation as retaliatory.
• A recent Secret Service threat assessment reportedly found no alarming risks warranting an extension, and a Harris adviser thanked the agency for its professionalism.
