Trump sends Marines in to LA riots and threatens to apprehend 'criminal' Gavin Newsom: Live updates
Unrest has covered the for 3 days and led to rioters encountering law enforcement, taking over the 101 highway and setting vehicles on fire, while police reacted by shooting tear gas and rubber bullets - with some capturing reporters in the crossfire.
California leaders have slammed Trump for what they view as deliberately whipping up the dispute with unneeded action, triggering more civil unrest by commandeering the National Guard from state control and sending 2,000 troops into the city.
California Governor Gavin Newsom vowed to take legal action against the administration over the relocation which he called 'an illegal act, an unethical act, an unconstitutional act' in an interview with MSNBC.
'He's intensified the conditions. He's lit the proverbial match,' Newsom stated.
'These anarchists that are in there to develop genuine issues, and they're simply playing right into Donald Trump's hand. And they need to be called out. They need to be apprehended.
'It is incorrect to ruin other individuals's residential or commercial property, and it is incorrect to develop the conditions that only intensify this. But Donald Trump, at the end of the day, is the sponsor of these conditions.'
LA Council member Eunisses Hernandez was recorded telling a crowd of anti-ICE protestors that the federal migration firm understands 'how quickly we mobilize, that's why they're altering techniques.
'Because community defense works and our resistance has slowed them down before ... and if they're intensifying their techniques then so are we. When they show up, we got ta appear even stronger.'
Hernandez doubled down on her support of the anti-ICE protests in a TV interview with NBCLA.
When asked by anchor Colleen Williams, 'Would you advise [protestors] to stay within the boundaries of the law out there?'
Hernandez replied, 'What I would state is that individuals who are out there opposing, be safe. Bear in mind that we require all neighborhood members to be able to "throw down" in future emergencies.'

Their bio on the site states they seek 'to weave together the intersections of social, economic, and climate justice to address systemic concerns facing our regional and global community.'
Luz's employer, Councilwoman Jurado, is a kept in mind critic of LA's authorities department.
During the campaign for her council seat last year, Jurado was taped being asked about abolishing authorities.
'What's the rap verse? F- the police, that's how I see 'em,' she reacted.
She later informed ABC7 News: 'I priced estimate a lyric from a tune that's become part of a larger conversation on systemic oppression and police responsibility for years. But it was just a lyric ... My dedication to public safety remains as strong as ever.'
After her election to LA council district 14, Jurado was captured in another debate when she was photographed seeming asleep at her chamber seat throughout a closed February session.
Jurado told ABC7: 'It appears like I was reading, and if indeed I did doze off, I believe this won't be the first or last of the human minutes that I have as a council member,'
