Nearly three dozen arrests were made and a handful of police officers were hurt during the “No Kings” protest in Los Angeles on Saturday, the Los Angeles Police Department said.

Democrats were walking a line between criticizing the White House for sending troops to put down protests in L.A. and the violence that Trump says caused him to act.

"No Kings Day" protests are set to be held in Southern California and throughout the country on Saturday to protest President Donald Trump's administration and to counterprogram the military parade in Washington, D.C., marking the U.S. Army's 250th birthday.

Despite the curfew, people are still coming to downtown LA for protests against the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. Many more are expected for today’s “No Kings” event.

While the president contends that the L.A. protests against his immigration policy have been chaotic, the scenes are not as violent.

LA residents who surveyed the damage after the protests on June 8 were disillusioned by what unfolded in their city and feared what might come next.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom delivered a statewide address on Tuesday in the wake of immigration operations that sparked days of protest in Los Angeles and the deployment of hundreds of National Guard and U.S. Marines troops to the area by President Trump.

Indivisible, a Democratic-aligned network with ties to left-wing billionaire George Soros, is helping to spearhead the “No Kings” protests.

About 50 U.S. Marines squared off against hundreds of protesters in front of a federal building in downtown Los Angeles on Saturday, with the crowd yelling in unison for them to go home.

Mayor Karen Bass says people involved in causing damage during anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles will be prosecuted.
