Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Saturday evening announced that Active Duty Marines stationed at Camp Pendleton will be mobilized to quell the anti-ICE riots in downtown Los Angeles.
Camp Pendleton is located about 80 miles south of Los Angeles in North San Diego County.
Violent protests began on Friday after ICE agents conducted multiple raids in downtown Los Angeles on Friday.
The riots continued into Saturday. Protestors started fires, threw projectiles at law enforcement officers and damaged property in response to LA Mayor Karen Bass’s call for action.
Democrat Karen Bass fanned the flames late Friday with an attack on ICE agents.
Hegseth made the announcement shortly after President Trump signed a presidential memorandum deploying 2,000 National Guardsmen to “address the lawlessness.”
“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,” Hegseth said.
