And good evening. Tonight, as we come on the air, anti-immigration enforcement raids and protests are spreading across the country. Overnight in Austin, take a look.Police use tear gas to break up the crowds there. And in San Francisco, dozens detained after clashing with police. Today, crowds amassing in Chicago and in New York City.All peaceful protests. Los Angeles calm for now with the National Guard looking on. Sunday, a terrifying moment when a New York Post reporter was struck with a rubber bullet.Yo ...

Yeah, we're listening to President Trump at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, addressing troops there. We've heard quite a bit of his uh stump speech making many points on immigration as he often does. Also urging Congress to pan to pass that massive spending bill, which incidentally includes uh increased spending uh for uh the military, but also making remarks about his decision to deploy troops to California.Also there on the ground is our White House correspondent, Van Hillyard. Van, what else did we miss. Rig ...

It was a story that I saw. I I I was alerted. I stopped and read it. Um it's an incredible body of reporting. Take me through it. Uh well, thank you very much. Uh yes, we uh really looked at what has changed with ICE enforcement leading up to this and the marching orders that they're getting from the White House. Uh Steven Miller, as you mentioned earlier, had this meeting in late May where he told uh agents from around the country that not enough people were being deported and that their focus should not b ...

And I will just take you back to last Thursday. Last Thursday, there was nothing happening in this town that called for the raids that took place on Friday. Nothing was happening.Nothing warranted the raids. If you remember at the beginning of this administration, we were told that uh raids would be to look for violent criminals, people who had warrants. But I don't know how you go from a drug dealer to a Home Depot to people's workplaces where they're just trying to make a living.At Home Depot, you have da ...

Political and Legal Analysis - The Trump administration's deployment of the National Guard and Marines in Los Angeles, without the California governor's consent, marks a significant escalation with little modern precedent, potentially testing the limits of presidential power [1][2][4][5][8] - California is suing the president, arguing he overstepped his authority by invoking war powers to send in troops, claiming there is no actual invasion or rebellion, but rather constitutionally protected protests [8][9] - Legal experts suggest the administration's actions may be unlawful, as they lack a clear legal basis and could be a pretextual misuse of emergency powers, potentially violating the Posse Comitatus Act [25][26][31][54][57] - Critics argue the administration's actions are a "test run" to expand presidential authority and suppress dissent, potentially leading to more aggressive responses to protests in the future [5][32][34][50] - The administration's actions are seen as an attempt to normalize a type of enforcement not seen in the country for a long time, using military tactics and gear against peaceful protesters [83][84] Immigration Enforcement and Community Impact - Federal immigration agents conducted widescale enforcement actions in Los Angeles, targeting day laborers, many of whom are undocumented but not violent offenders [17][18][19] - Community members and leaders expressed alarm and opposition to the presence of immigration officers, viewing it as a raid on hardworking communities [21][22] - The deployment of troops is seen as unnecessary, as local law enforcement is capable of handling the protests and demonstrations [7][79] - There are concerns that the administration's actions are creating chaos and confusion, leading to the arrest of individuals attending immigration hearings [53] Strategic Response and Historical Context - Experts suggest that protesters should strategically avoid confronting the National Guard and Marines, as the administration seeks to create images of chaos and justify further military intervention [88][89][90] - The situation is compared to autocratic moments in history, with the administration potentially using the National Guard as "bait" to provoke a response and expand its power [85][86] - The deployment of troops is contrasted with historical instances where federal intervention was necessary to protect civil rights, arguing that the current actions infringe on those rights [4][28][78]

Get back. Get back. Gavin Newsome is he's daring Tom Homie to come and arrest him.Should he do it. I wish if I was I think it's great. David likes the publicity, but I think it would be a great thing.He's done a terrible job. Free David. [Applause] Oh no.Stop. [Music] [Music] If you dial back time and go to Friday, if immigration raids had not happened here, we would not have the disorder that went on last night. I will tell you that it is peaceful now, but we do not know where and when the next raids will ...
