[FoxNews] The National Guard was deployed to Los Angeles County as anti-ICE protests continued to escalate Saturday afternoon and into the evening.
The unrest is centered in the city of Paramount, California, where protesters clashed with federal authorities, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers who were allegedly trying to conduct a raid at a local business.

Riots Erupt At LA ICE Facility As Mexican BLM Clone Unleashes Color Revolution Operation
After failing to ignite multiple color revolution-style protests earlier this year targeting Elon Musk and President Trump over DOGE-related efforts, Democrats and their rogue NGO network appear to be at it again—this time staging a new protest movement against Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Los Angeles, hoping to spark another 'Summer of Love' nationwide riots like in 2020, when leftists used the useful idiots behind the Marxist group Black Lives Matter as a vehicle for chaos.
With BLM kicked to the curb by the Democratic Party, the Mexican version of BLM - Unión del Barrio - whose manifesto is filled with explicit Marxist and communist rhetoric—has become the next group Democrats will use as useful idiots.
On Friday, Unión del Barrio issued a call to action for the crazies on Facebook to stage a protest against "ICE Terrorists" in Downtown LA:
Emergency Protest TODAY in LA! 4:30PM
535 Alameda St LA, CA 90012
Join us to denounce ICE terrorizing our communities! Over 200 people are currently being held at this location in the basement of the courthouse. Today, there has been ICE activity all over the LA area.
LA EMERGENCY PROTEST!
535 Alameda St, LA, CA 90012
Friday, June 6, 2025 4:30PM
STOP DEPORTATIONS NOW!
ICE has hundreds of members of our community kidnapped and is holding them at this location.
According to journalist Andy Ngo, multiple far-left groups, one being Antifa, amplified Unión del Barrio's "emergency protest" at the "basement of the courthouse."
Chaos shortly erupted on the streets outside the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building and United States Courthouse.
A quick review of Unión del Barrio's political program is absolutely alarming - and basically the Mexican version of BLM...
Core Beliefs & Goals:
- Opposition to U.S. imperialism, capitalism, and settler colonialism
- Advocacy for immigrant rights, against deportations and ICE raids
- Promotion of community organizing in working-class Latino neighborhoods
- Support for socialist and pan-Latino unity movements
- Education and youth empowerment through political study and activism
Action campaigns:
- Organizes rallies and protests, particularly against ICE and border enforcement
- Runs community education programs like Escuelita Aztlán
- Collaborates with other radical left-wing organizations in the U.S. and Latin America
- Frequently involved in May Day demonstrations, anti-police protests, and immigration activism
What's clear is that Unión del Barrio operates on a Marxist-Leninist and decolonial framework that wants to destroy the West and capitalism, or more importantly, destroy America. In other words, the org is just the Mexican version of BLM.

‘Deranged': Newsom Fumes as Trump Federalizes National Guard, Threatens to Deploy Marines to Quell Anti-ICE Riots
[Breitbart] California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) took his frustrations to social media on Saturday as President Donald Trump federalized 2,000 California National Guard troops to quell anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles.
Trump sent in the National Guard after two days of rioting in which black-clad radicals attacked federal law enforcement officials who were arresting illegal aliens in the city.
The rioters set fire to cars, tagged federal buildings with graffiti, and attacked federal officers.
City and state officials did little to stop the violence, other than offering their support for “immigrants” and criticizing the Trump administration.
Newsom was furious — especially after the administration hinted that Marines, too, could be deployed:
Newsom did little to stop the riots in 2020, when Black Lives Matter activists trashed the city for days.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shared video footage of the violent protests and rioting when people spray painted anti-police and ICE sentiments on cars, signs, and buildings.
“The violent targeting of law enforcement in Los Angeles by lawless protestors is despicable. These men and women work every day, putting their lives on the line, to protect and defend the lives of American citizens. Mayor Bass, ICE is not responsible for ‘sowing a sense of terror’ the protestors YOU enabled are,” the agency wrote:
More video footage shows protesters accusing police officers of “collaborating” with ICE agents:
In addition, other clips show more of the chaos and a sea of protesters marching down a street:
