YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump mulled invoking the Insurrection Act, which would give him more leeway to use the military for domestic purposes, as he deploys troops to Los Angeles in response to protests prompted by ICE raids in the region.

"If there's an insurrection, I would certainly invoke it,” Trump said June 10 during an event in the White House. “We'll see. But I can tell you, last night was terrible. The night before that was terrible."

Trump deployed the California National Guard to Los Angeles over the objection of Gov. Gavin Newsom, sparking a lawsuit from the state. Marines were also sent to help the guard after protests erupted over his immigration enforcement efforts.
