Tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets across Southern California on Saturday to voice their concerns over ongoing immigration raids and oppose the policies of President Trump, who they depicted as an aspiring monarch.

The power of the US military will be sharply on display this weekend – on two different coasts and in two very different ways.

With protests blanketing the United States over the immigration crackdown — which is to say nothing of “No Kings Day” on Saturday — boxer Ryan Garcia couldn’t sit back anymore as Los Angeles, his home, has been wracked with ICE raids, protests and upheaval.

Los Angeles endured a sixth day of protests that have been largely peaceful but occasionally punctuated by violence.

The troops are authorized to detain people who pose a threat to federal personnel or property, but only until police can arrest them.

The protest comes before leaders vote on whether or not to pass a budget that is expected to lock new undocumented immigrants out of Medi-Cal.

Protests over President Trump's immigration enforcement raids and his mobilization of the Marines and National Guard in Los Angeles have spread to other major U.S. cities.

Some vehicles thought be those of agents were spray-painted with expletives, as were some exterior walls of the Whittier hotel.
