YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn a shocking, autocratic move, President Donald Trump deployed the national guard against demonstrators in Los Angeles as they protested the administration’s immigration raids.
To break it all down, Pulitzer Prize winner, Zeteo contributor, and LA resident Viet Thanh Nguyen joined Mehdi Hasan for a live Q&A with paid Zeteo subscribers, where he answered questions from the audience.
“The Trump administration has already set up a narrative that we are in a war of culture and civilization… Depicting this as an invasion of this city by undocumented migrants then allows the Trump administration to invade the city on its own terms,” Nguyen, a refugee himself, says to Mehdi.

Watch the full video to hear Mehdi and Viet discuss Trump’s escalating deportation campaign, Israel’s war on Gaza, the current state of the Democratic Party, and why Trump wants to make LA “Fallujah on the Pacific.”
