Protesters clashed with police and some remaining National Guard members during an apparent anti-ICE demonstration on Wednesday night in downtown Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Police Department’s Central Division issued a traffic advisory on social media at 8:41 p.

Bass called the deployment of the National Guard a "chaotic escalation" of the situation, in a June 8 post to X.

Roughly 4,000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines had been deployed. It wasn’t immediately clear how long the rest would stay in the region.
