A cloud of uncertainty is hanging over Los Angeles, where questions remain over the role that Marines and National Guard troops will play after being called in by President Donald Trump amid protests over immigration raids in the city.

President Donald Trump has deployed 4,000 National Guardsmen and 700 Marines to LA. But California Gov. Gavin Newsom and California Attorney General Rob Bonta are suing the Trump administration, saying they unlawfully "trampled over" California’s sovereignty when they federalized the California National Guard.

President Trump issued a memo authorizing the National Guard to post up in Los Angeles, but California Gov. Gavin Newsom has called it "illegal."
