It comes as roughly 200 Marines are being deployed to Los Angeles on Friday to protect federal property and personnel, according to a military commander.

US Marines who are part of a military deployment ordered by President Donald Trump began arriving at the Wilshire Federal Building in Los Angeles, positioning them miles away from the areas where protests spurred by immigration raids have taken place.

“The district court has no authority to usurp the president’s authority as commander in chief,” Kelly said in an emailed statement to the Southern California News Group. “The president exercised his lawful authority to mobilize the National Guard to protect federal buildings and personnel in Gavin Newsom’s lawless Los Angeles.”

California Governor Gavin Newsom accused President Donald Trump of misusing his power and warned the rest of the country to prepare for similar unrest as Los Angeles imposed a nighttime downtown curfew and protests over immigration raids stretched into a fifth night.

Within the next 24 hours, a state attorney said in S.F. district court, 140 marines will replace National Guard troops in Los Angeles.

A new poll shows a partisan split on President Donald Trump's troop deployment to quell Los Angeles protests, with 86% of Republicans supporting while Democrats strongly oppose it.
