Border czar Tom Homan defended the deployment of hundreds of Marines to help protect federal officials and property amid violent protests in Los Angeles.
President Donald Trump temporarily deployed the Marines within California on Monday to reinforce National Guard troops sent to help protect Immigration and Custom Enforcement officials after street demonstrations in Southern California began Friday, when activists clashed with sheriff's deputies.
Demonstrators in Los Angeles have assembled, among other places, at a government facility where immigrants are detained.
