Trump and his minions have inflamed the country with escalating deportation raids. In Los Angeles, the resistance has been fiercely fighting back and keeping ICE out of their communities. Trump has taken further steps by federalizing the California National Guard to protect federal buildings and aid in ICE operations. He’s also now deployed a battalion of U.S. marines. California’s political leadership is pushing back as well.

Scott talks with organizer Estuardo Mazariegos about what’s happening in the streets of Los Angeles.
