LA riots take ominous new turn as mystery donor drops off wartime face shields for protesters: Live updates
The Los Angeles riots took an ominous turn on Monday night as a mystery donor was seen dropping off tactical war-time face shields for protesters in a sign that the chaos is nowhere near over. The mystery donor was caught on camera passing our gas masks and riot shields to protesters in the streets as the National Guard was stationed nearby. The chaos began on Friday when anti-ICE protesters seized on a handful of police raids across the city, taking to the streets to burn cars and march against what they say are unfair deportations. Local business owners are outraged as destructive looters continue to target downtown stores as the protests rage on. President Donald Trump is deploying another 2,000 National Guard troops, along with 700 Marines, to LA today after Monday marked a fourth day of destructive protests. California has filed a lawsuit over the use of National Guard troops following the first deployment, telling reporters that Trump had ' trampled' the state's sovereignty. Trump claims the city would have been 'completely obliterated' if he had not deployed the Guard. Additional protests against immigration raids have now erupted in several other cities including San Francisco and Santa Ana, California, and Dallas and Austin, Texas. Mystery donor distributes 'tactical gear' to LA rioters A mystery donor was caught on camera dispersing tactical gear to Los Angeles rioters as anti-ICE protesters wreaked havoc on the city. The unidentified woman passed out gas masks and riot shields to demonstrators in the downtown streets, just steps from federal buildings, as the National Guard was stationed nearby. The masks were branded 'bionic shield', FOX 11 reports, and the mystery donor - who handed out the goods from a pick-up truck - appeared to be travelling with a group of masked individuals.

SEIU leader charged with 'conspiracy to impede an officer' for protesting ICE raid
California labor leader David Huerta, 58, was released from federal custody on Monday on a $50,000 bond after being charged with "conspiracy to impede an officer." Huerta, the president of Service Employees International Union California (SEIU) was arrested during an anti-ICE protest in Los Angeles on Friday. Huerta was photographed wearing socks and carrying shoes following his release from custody. He told reporters he did not intend to get arrested, and the only way to win change is through nonviolence. "This fight is ours, it's our community's, but it belongs to everyone," Huerta said in Spanish, according to the Associated Press. "We all have to fight for them." Huerta was arrested while law enforcement officers were executing a federal search warrant at a Los Angeles business suspected of hiring illegal immigrants and falsifying employment papers, a special agent for Homeland Security Investigations, which is part of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, wrote in a federal court filing obtained by the AP. SEIU represents 750,000 members in 17 local unions across 58 counties, according to its website. Among the members are "nurses, healthcare workers, janitors, social workers, security officers, in-home caregivers, school and university employees, court workers, and city, county and state employees." While SEIU International President April Verrett said on Monday that the labor union is "relieved" that Huerta is free, she added his arrest only drew attention to a larger issue. "Thousands of workers remain unjustly detained and separated from their families. At this very moment, immigrant communities are being terrorized by heavily militarized armed forces. The Trump regime calling in the National Guard is a dangerous escalation to target people who disagree with them. It is a threat to our democracy. The federal government should never be used as a weapon against people who disagree with them," she said in a statement. "America is a nation of immigrants. Immigrant workers are essential to our society: feeding our nation, caring for our elders, cleaning our workplaces, and building our homes," Verrett added. "Immigrants are scientists, they are teachers and professors. They are our co-workers, neighbors and family members. They deserve our respect and they need their constitutional rights respected."
