Protests against President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown have erupted across numerous U.S. cities, including Los Angeles, New York, Portland, Atlanta, and Newark, in response to increased ICE raids and federal enforcement actions. In Los Angeles, over the past week, nightly curfews have been implemented, and over 1,900 protests are scheduled nationwide, coinciding with a military parade in Washington, D.C. Demonstrators have faced arrests, with 49 people detained during LA protests, and some protests turned violent, involving fires and throwing objects at law enforcement. In Portland, police arrested 10 protesters near an ICE building, and in Newark, federal and local officers responded to fights and protests at an immigration detention center, where detainees reportedly escaped after a fight over food. Several prominent figures, including Senator Alex Padilla, have been forcibly removed from press conferences, with Padilla urging peaceful protests and criticizing the suppression of questioning government authority. A federal appeals court temporarily paused a ruling that would have returned control of California's National Guard to the state, amid ongoing legal battles over the militarization of police and federal control. The protests reflect widespread concern over aggressive immigration policies, the militarization of law enforcement, and the impact on immigrant communities and local businesses, which are suffering from decreased foot traffic and vandalism. Authorities in Los Angeles, New York, and Portland have responded with police arrests, curfews, and deploying military personnel, including Marines, to protect federal property. The protests continue as activists call for accountability and an end to what they describe as authoritarian actions by the Trump administration.
