U.S. Northern Command said approximately 500 Marines are in a “prepared to deploy status” should they be needed to support the Department of Defense’s protection of federal property and personnel efforts.

As USNORTHCOM’s land component command, U.S. Army North stood up Task Force 51, with a two-star general, as the ground command and control element over the Title 10 forces. At this time, there are approximately 300 members of the California Army National Guard’s 79th Infantry Brigade Combat Team deployed at the following locations in the greater Los Angeles area: Los Angeles, Paramount, and Compton, California. Additionally, approximately 500 Marines from 2nd Battalion, 7th Marines at Twentynine Palms, California, are in a prepared to deploy status should they be necessary to augment and support the DoD’s protection of federal property and personnel efforts. JUST IN – 500 U.S. Marines ready to deploy to LA, says USNORTHCOM. pic.twitter.com/MB12A2BvPt — Disclose.tv (@disclosetv) June 9, 2025 Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth previously said he would deploy active-duty Marines at Camp Pendleton if violence continues. “The violent mob assaults on ICE and Federal Law Enforcement are designed to prevent the removal of Criminal Illegal Aliens from our soil; a dangerous invasion facilitated by criminal cartels (aka Foreign Terrorist Organizations) and a huge NATIONAL SECURITY RISK. Under President Trump, violence & destruction against federal agents & federal facilities will NOT be tolerated. It’s COMMON SENSE,” Hegseth said. The @DeptofDefense is mobilizing the National Guard IMMEDIATELY to support federal law enforcement in Los Angeles. And, if violence continues, active duty Marines at Camp Pendleton will also be mobilized — they are on high alert,” he added.

Aerial footage showed masses of people blocking lanes in both directions on the 101 freeway Sunday afternoon, causing a significant traffic disruption where the 101 and 110 freeways converge, marking the third day of protests following ICE raids across the state. Entrances to the 101 began reopening approximately 90 minutes after the full freeway closure, where law enforcement worked to push the protesters off the freeway up the on-ramp. Several other road closures persist. In a Sunday evening news conference, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said hundreds of demonstrators managed to reach the freeway, with thousands of others occupying nearby streets. Demonstrations on the 101 and 110 freeways and several other areas were also declared an unlawful assembly by the LAPD, and many protesters were arrested. In videos from the scene, law enforcement could be seen walking on the streets of the freeway, directing traffic caught in the protest.

“Uncontrolled immigration threatens to deconstruct the nation we grew up in and convert America into a conglomeration of peoples with almost nothing in common — not history, heroes, language, culture, faith, or ancestors. Balkanization beckons.” – Pat Buchanan During the LA riots she readily embraced the thug, Damien Williams, who hurled a concrete block at […] The post Maxine Waters Is Trying to Start LA Riots As She Did in 1992 appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) hit the streets alongside anti-ICE protesters in Los Angeles, taunting and harassing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents before she attempted to enter the Los Angeles Federal building to check on a union boss who had been arrested. Waters was captured on video shouting at the National Guard troops — ordered in by President Donald Trump after two days of protesters rioting and attacking ICE agents as they attempted to enforce federal immigrations laws. “Why do you have guns? What are you going to do, you going to shoot some kid who’s afraid of you and runs?” she asked. “You going to shoot an elected official? If you shoot me, you better shoot straight. I don’t know why you’re in my city. The governor was not contacted. This is Trump, and his outrageous attempt to not only target our sanctuary city but to frighten us and intimidate us. This is wrong, and I hope that none of you will use those guns to shoot anybody. There’s no reason to shoot anybody.” INSANE Dem Rep. Maxine Waters is now verbally harassing our National Guard Members?! DO DEMS HATE THE TROOPS?! @SpeakerJohnson DO SOMETHING!! pic.twitter.com/kpBvn2apxX — Graham Allen (@GrahamAllen_1) June 8, 2025 Waters later attempted to enter the federal building to “check on” Service Employees International Union (SEIU) President David Huerta, who was injured and detained during violent confrontations between protesters and ICE agents. Asserting her “congressional authority,” Waters pressed for access to the building — but she was ultimately turned away by a guard at the door who told her simply, “The lobby is secured to all visitors.” BREAKING: Rep. Maxine Waters tried to enter the Los Angeles Federal Building to check on arrested SEIU President David Huerta. Despite her “congressional authority,” she was denied entry. Note how Waters walked past all the graffiti during this stunt — quite the backdrop. pic.twitter.com/BwAM5pJljF — Stu (@thestustustudio) June 8, 2025 The California Congresswoman presented a slightly modified version of the day’s events when she posted an update via X, claiming that she had “pled with the National Guard, which was heavily armed, not to use their weapons against peaceful demonstrators who were simply exercising their rights to freedom of speech and protest. All people deserve to be treated with dignity and due process under the law. Peaceful, nonviolent demonstrations are critical to protecting our constitutional rights!” Today, I came to the Metropolitan Detention Center to exercise my constitutional rights as a Member of Congress to check on the safety and conditions of SEIU California President David Huerta, who was arrested by ICE.
