On Monday, there was a quiet hum of traffic passing on Colorado Boulevard outside the AC Hotel. A hotel employee, who declined to give his name, said it was quiet overnight with no additional protests outside the building. A lone flier that read “ICE out of LA” was placed on a third-floor balcony.

Advocacy groups, a farmworker union and Ventura police said federal immigration agents were seen everywhere from Moorpark to Ventura.

Saturday’s demonstrators were jubilant and defiant, holding signs saying, “Stop racism,” “No kings” and “No one is illegal on stolen lands.”

They are also encouraging migrants in the U.S. to return to their home countries on their own. Trump has offered $1,000 and a free commercial flight to people willing to “self deport.” But even with that incentive, immigrants aren’t leaving the country at the pace Trump promised.

President Donald Trump in recent days has sent thousands of National Guard troops and 700 active duty Marines to quell Los Angeles-area protests over immigration enforcement actions, despite the objections of Democratic Gov.

As protests erupted nationwide on Saturday, demonstrators rallied in Brevard County against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids, following a week of mounting unrest in Los Angeles and other major cities.

Louisiana's GOP-dominated Legislature passed a package of bills this week that were designed to aid in federal crackdowns on migrants suspected of entering the country illegally.
