Trump says more troops will be deployed. Where do things stand with California protests?
Protests in Los Angeles continued to escalate late Monday, after the first contingent of National Guard troops, deployed by President Donald Trump, arrived to the city on Sunday. Late Monday news broke that Trump planned to deploy additional National Guard members to quell violent protests. Images out of L.A. showed scenes of chaos — Waymo self-driving cars lit on fire as masked protesters waved Mexican flags. At least five cars were set ablaze, according to a CBS News report. The Google-owned taxi service said they don't believe protesters intentionally targeted their vehicles but paused its service in the areas where it faced disruption. The LAPD announced they made 50 arrests during the demonstrations over the weekend. As Fox News' Bill Melugin reported, the charges included attempted murder with a Molotov cocktail, and assault with a deadly weapon on an officer. 'Five officers and five LAPD horses have sustained minor injuries, and crowds were using hand held radios to communicate law enforcement movements to each other,' Melugin reported. There was a brief reprieve in the violence early Monday, although city residents continued navigating street and freeway closures amid protests. Among the demonstrators was an interfaith group that sung hymns in front of the police, as CNN showed Monday morning. ICE agents stood behind LAPD officers. Trump announced Saturday night he would deploy 2,000 National Guardsmen to Southern California to protect federal buildings and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers who were carrying out raids on migrants in the country illegally. On Monday, the Trump administration moved to also send 700 Marines to quell the protests. The troops were scheduled to arrive over the next 24 hours. 'You watch the same clips I did: cars burning, people rioting, we stopped it,' Trump said, speaking at the White House. 'If we didn't do the job, that place would be burning down just like the houses,' he added, referring to the wildfires in Los Angeles in January. 'I feel we had no choice ... We did the right thing.' While Trump says he felt his administration didn't have a choice and 'did the right thing,' California Democrats argue the president escalated the situation. California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who opposed the deployment of National Guard troops, criticized Trump for sending soldiers to California in a post on X. 'U.S. Marines have served honorably across multiple wars in defense of democracy,' Newsom said. 'They shouldn't be deployed on American soil facing their own countrymen to fulfill the deranged fantasy of a dictatorial President,' he said. 'This is un-American.' Hours later, in a separate post, Newsom said he 'was just informed Trump is deploying another 2,000 Guard troops to L.A.' He claimed the first set of National Guard members Trump sent to California didn't receive food or water and only roughly 300 of them are actively deployed while the rest await their next orders in federal buildings. 'This is Reckless. Pointless. And Disrespectful to our troops,' Newsom added. Newsom urged the Trump White House to rescind the National Guard deployment on Sunday. By Monday, his administration had filed a lawsuit against the federal government. Newsom and California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced they sued the Trump administration for sending the National Guard without the governor's authorization or request during a press conference Monday. 'Donald Trump is creating fear and terror by failing to adhere to the U.S. Constitution and overstepping his authority. This is a manufactured crisis to allow him to take over a state militia, damaging the very foundation of our republic,' said Newsom. 'Every governor, red or blue, should reject this outrageous overreach,' the governor added. According to Bonta, this marks California's 24th lawsuit against the Trump White House over the past four months. Newsom urged Californians to protest peacefully. During Monday's press conference, Bonta also cautioned violent demonstrators against breaking the law to avoid arrests. L.A. Mayor Karen Bass claimed the ICE raids last week and the military presence in the city sparked increased violence over the weekend. 'If you dial back time and go to Friday, if immigration raids had not happened here, we would not have had the disorder that went on last night,' Bass said on CNN's 'The Situation Room.' 'If they see ICE, they go out, and they protest, and so it's just a recipe for pandemonium that is completely unnecessary. Nothing was happening here. Los Angeles was peaceful before Friday.' Vice President J.D. Vance told the governor to do his job. 'That's all we're asking,' he added. Trump patted himself on the back for deploying the National Guard in a post on Truth Social. 'We made a great decision in sending the National Guard to deal with the violent, instigated riots in California,' he said. 'If we had not done so, Los Angeles would have been completely obliterated.' He criticized Newsom and Bass for not accepting the federal government's help nor expressing any gratitude for it. 'Instead, they choose to lie to the People of California and America by saying that we weren't needed, and that these are 'peaceful protests,'' he wrote.

Advocates denounce immigration enforcement raid at Southern New Mexico dairy
Advocates on Monday denounced a recent immigration enforcement raid carried out by Homeland Security Investigations agents that led to the arrests of 11 workers at a southeastern New Mexico dairy farm. María Romano, coordinator of the Lea County office of the New Mexico worker and immigrant rights organization Somos Un Pueblo Unido, said the raid in Lovington — the first of her knowledge in the area — has stoked fear among immigrant communities as tensions surrounding immigration enforcement spike nationwide. "People are sad. They're angry. But more than anything, they're scared," Romano said in an interview in Spanish. In a June 4 post on X, formerly Twitter, the El Paso field office of Homeland Security Investigations — the federal law enforcement agency housed within U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement — announced agents had arrested 11 "illegal aliens for violations of fraud & misuse of visas, permits & other documents" during a raid at Outlook Dairy in Lovington. ICE's Facebook page noted the raid in a post Saturday, adding, "Criminal employers who hire illegal workers put other employees and our communities at risk. Plus, they undercut their competition by exploiting illegal alien labor, making it harder for legitimate American businesses to stay afloat." Outlook Dairy manager Isaak Bos declined to comment on the raid when contacted by The New Mexican on Monday. He told the Albuquerque Journal the workers provided false paperwork. Of the 11 people arrested during the raid, Romano said 10 were from Guatemala and one was from Mexico. While she doesn't know where the Guatemalans are currently, she said, she believes the Mexican worker is now back in Mexico. ICE did not immediately respond to The New Mexican's request for more information on the raid, including the location of the 11 people arrested. The Lovington raid and Romano's response to it come amid rising tensions between federal immigration enforcement and immigrant communities across the U.S. Thousands of protesters took to the streets in Los Angeles over the weekend to denounce the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. President Donald Trump deployed hundreds of National Guard troops to quell the demonstrations, while California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced plans to sue the president over the move, calling it an "unmistakable step toward authoritarianism" in a social media post Monday. U.S. Rep. Gabe Vasquez, a Democrat who represents much of the southern half of the state, on Monday advocated for the Trump administration to "reverse course to restore peace" and maintain focus on reforming the "broken" immigration system. "Raiding workplaces, turning federal agents and the military against American citizens, and transforming our streets into war zones is not how we enforce our immigration laws," Vasquez said in a statement. He added, "We need real immigration reform rooted in due process, public safety, and compassion, not inflamed tensions and conflicts in the street.' In response to the Lovington raid, Somos Un Pueblo Unido issued a news release calling on local and state officials to "push for humane immigration laws" while demanding transparency from ICE and protecting "the rights of all New Mexicans, regardless of immigration status." The organization also provides materials and organizes workshops to ensure immigrants know — and know how to exercise — their civil rights. It's something Romano encourages people to do. "We've spent many years telling people: 'Understand your rights. Learn your rights. Even if you're undocumented, you have rights,' " she said. Romano added, "We have to be very well-informed about our rights and avoid any missteps — because we already know where we'll end up."

Teenage TikTok star's murder leaves Pakistani women questioning whether any safe spaces exist – online or on the street
When Sana Yousaf turned 17, she posted a video of her birthday celebrations to more than a million followers on TikTok. They saw her cutting a pink and cream cake beneath a matching balloon arch, the June breeze ruffling her long hair as she beamed against the backdrop of the cloud-covered Margalla Hills in Pakistan's capital, Islamabad. Less than 24 hours later, Sana was dead, a bullet through her chest and graphic images of her dead body going viral on Pakistani social media, outraging women across the country, who fear there are no safe spaces for them anymore – in reality, or online. Police have detained 22-year-old Umar Hayat, an unemployed man from the city of Faisalabad, over Sana's murder. Syed Ali Nasir Rizvi, the Inspector General of Police of Islamabad, alleged Rizvi 'repeatedly attempted to contact' the teenager and killed her when she refused to respond. CNN has not been able to locate a legal representative for Hayat. Sana's father, Syed Yousaf Hassan, told CNN no words could convey the family's loss, and his daughter hadn't told him she was being harassed. 'My daughter was braver than a son,' he said. 'She didn't fear anything.' As Sana's family prepared for her funeral, disturbing comments started popping up on her TikTok and Instagram posts, most in Urdu, celebrating her killing. 'Happy to see these things happening,' read one. Another stated, 'My heart is happy today, I'm going to turn on music and dance with joy.' Under a picture of Sana wearing traditional Pakistani clothes covering her entire body, a comment said, 'encouraging young women to seek attention or expose themselves can have serious negative consequences.' The Digital Rights Foundation (DRF), a women-led nonprofit that promotes online safety, said such rhetoric 'dangerously links a woman's online presence or perceived morality to justifications for violence.' 'This form of digital vigilantism contributes to a broader culture of victim-blaming, where abuse is normalized and accountability is shifted away from the perpetrator,' the DRF said in a report released soon after Sana's death. Alongside toxic online comments, rage has simmered among women across Pakistan, who are demanding justice for Sana, pointing to a crisis of masculinity in the South Asian nation. And Pakistan is far from alone in seeing heated debates over the prevalence of violence against women. Recent multiple murders in Latin America, including a Mexican influencer who was shot dead while livestreaming, has sparked indignation and highlighted the high rates of femicide across the continent. British miniseries'Adolescence' became a global hit this year with its raw depiction of the damage caused by online misogyny while a recent largescale Australia study found one in three men saying they have committed intimate partner violence at some point in their lives. Sana's TikTok content would be familiar to any teenager online. Her recent shorts included showing off her fashionwear, singing songs while driving, and filming a blowdry at the salon. But for prominent women's rights campaigners, Sana's death was the ultimate outcome of unrestricted online abuse of women in a patriarchal country. Amber Rahim Shamsi, a prominent journalist and Pakistan editor of a news digital platform, Nukta, says she was relentlessly harassed online in 2020 for a variety of issues, including her views on women's rights. 'I have also been stalked online, and became fearful when my stalker started to send me mugs and mounted photos to my office. I am just one example among millions of women from all walks of life. Most don't have the privilege or social safety nets to protect themselves,' Shamsi told CNN. Shamsi agrees that there is a crisis in masculinity, 'especially in how it plays out in our digital spaces.' And that it needs to be talked about 'not just for women's sake, but for men's, too.' According to Shamsi, 'social media has amplified women's voices – especially those of young women – who are increasingly educated, politically aware, and unafraid to own their choices. That visibility, that confidence, is unsettling for some men who have grown up believing their authority, their control, is a given.' 'It's an identity crisis,' says Shamsi. 'A subset of men is reacting with anxiety and aggression to this shift in gender dynamic as though the solution is to shrink women's spaces, rather than question why so many boys are being raised to feel threatened by equality.' The DRF's report stated that since 2017 its helpline 'has documented over 20,000 cases of technology-facilitated gender-based violence and online threats, numbers that have only grown.' Kanwal Ahmed, a Pakistani social entrepreneur and storyteller, runs Soul Sister Pakistan, a Facebook group created in 2013 with over 300,000 followers. For years, it's operated as a popular safe digital space for Pakistani women online, but Ahmed says the criticism of her page has been unrelenting. 'We have been called a man-hating, trauma-bonding club where all women do is gossip,' said Ahmed, who works with volunteers to help women in need who post on the page. Sana is not alone when it comes to unwanted online attention that's moved to real life. Ahmed recalled a case in 2019 of a young woman who had been stalked by a man after her friend leaked her number online. 'The only difference between her and Sana is that she wasn't killed, the stalker turned up at her door,' said Ahmed. 'You don't have to be an influencer to face this, it can happen to anyone.' Natalia Tariq, the resource mobilization lead at the Association for Progressive Communications (APC), a worldwide network of social activists who use the internet to make the world a better place, tells CNN that there is 'a complete culture of impunity' around online gender-based violence in Pakistan. Regulations and policies in place in the country are 'absolutely inadequate,' she said. There's a perception in Pakistan that 'violence that takes place online is not 'real' and is therefore less harmful,' Tariq said. But she added that what are sometimes seen as 'merely virtual' online threats can often turn to physical violence. Much praise has been heaped on Pakistani authorities for their sensitive and swift handling of Sana's murder, but some commentators say that's missing the point. Usama Khilji, the director of Bolo Bhi, a digital rights advocacy group Bolo Bhi, says Pakistan should be talking about educating boys about online harassment. 'Men in leadership positions need to be talking about these issues,' according to Khilji. Khilji said hate speech against women in Pakistan is still 'not a priority, and he's called on the government to 'show leadership in combatting online crimes against women.' Sana's murder comes less than two weeks after a landmark ruling by the country's Supreme Court upheld the death penalty for Zahir Jaffer, who murdered Noor Mukkadam, the daughter of a distinguished diplomat, in 2021. The brutal beheading horrified the country and renewed calls for better protection for victims of gender-based violence. Noor's father, Shaukat Mukadam, has been lauded for his relentless campaign for justice for his daughter. After the ruling, Noor's family issued a statement saying the verdict was a 'powerful reminder that women's lives matter.' Sana's father, Hassan, told CNN of his immense love for his daughter, of her plans to become a doctor, and the simple things that gave her joy, like birthday parties. 'Every moment with her was unforgettable,' he said.
