Demonstrators turned out in Los Angeles to oppose ICE raids. Trump called in the National Guard. Read more: Over the weekend, President Donald Trump ordered 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles to intervene in protests over federal immigration sweeps. California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) called the move “unconstitutional” and on Monday sued the administration. “Let me be clear: There is no invasion. There is no rebellion,” California Attorney General Rob Bonta (D) said in a statement. “The President is trying to manufacture chaos and crisis on the ground for his own political ends.” Today on “Post Reports,” host Colby Itkowitz talks with Supreme Court reporter Justin Jouvenal about the move – the first time in about 60 years that an American president has taken such action without a governor’s consent, and a chilling sign that Trump is prepared to send troops into other cities in response to protests. We also hear from reporter Arelis R. Hernández about the people detained by ICE, and the people who turned out to defend them. Today’s show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Maggie Penman, with help from Lucy Perkins. It was mixed by Sean Carter. Thanks to Ariel Plotnick, Peter Bresnan, Efrain Hernandez Jr. and Susan Levine.

  • It's Monday, early afternoon on the West Coast.

  • The standoff between California and President Trump continues.

  • This all started on Friday with sweeps in and around L.A. by Immigration and Customs Enforcement,

  • including at two Home Depots where day laborers often gather looking for work.

  • Many undocumented immigrants.

  • Witnesses say ICE officers arrested anyone they could grab.

  • as people standing in the parking lot began to run.

  • One thing to keep in mind in these immigration arrests is what people are telling us is that ICE agents aren't necessarily questioning people or asking for their documents.

  • They are grabbing people and taking them.

  • Arlise Hernandez covers immigration for The Post.

  • She's currently on the ground in L.A.

  • She says these ICE raids were shocking to people in the city,

  • who then came out to protest the government's actions.

  • Yesterday, I was downtown watching some of this unfold,

  • and it was throngs of people of all ages, a lot of them wearing masks from the COVID era,

  • facial masks, but folks who came down to express their displeasure, in fact,

  • their disdain for what's happening and a need to protect their immigrant neighbors.

  • Our Elise and my other colleagues who have been out reporting say these were pretty typical protests.

  • The protests had been mostly peaceful, with some exceptions.

  • The LAPD even put out a statement Saturday night thanking the protesters
