Immigration raids in Los Angeles led to protest, some of which have become violent.
In response, President Trump sent National Guard troops, now supported by US Marines to subdue the protests.
This move was opposed by California state governor, Gavin Newsom as well as the Mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass.
Local authorities in California said that the intervention of National Guard troops and Marines could provoke more violence.
