Overview

  • More than 330 undocumented migrants have been arrested in ICE raids across the Los Angeles area since last Friday.
  • Federal agents charged Emiliano Garduno-Galvez with attempted murder after he allegedly threw a Molotov cocktail at sheriff’s deputies during Saturday’s protests.
  • Los Angeles enacted an 8 p.m. curfew that led to nearly 200 arrests but failed to fully halt nighttime looting and clashes.
  • California’s SB 54 sanctuary law bars local agencies from honoring ICE detainers, potentially shielding arrested migrants from deportation.
  • President Trump dispatched thousands of National Guard troops plus about 700 Marines to assist federal agents in restoring order.
