00:02:36.000 On Sunday, President Trump deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles
00:02:40.860 following two days of rioting against the federal agents executing search warrants
00:02:44.940 and carrying out immigration enforcement actions on workplace sites in the area.
00:02:49.420 The clash is beginning on Friday afternoon and continuing throughout the weekend,
00:02:54.080 centering around a Home Depot in Paramount, California, an area in the L.A. Fashion District
00:02:59.180 and at the L.A. Civic Center.
00:03:01.580 Federal and local officials arresting dozens over the weekend.
00:03:04.680 Viral videos circulating on social media showing rioters waving Mexican flags,
00:03:09.460 throwing concrete chunks and rocks at law enforcement vehicles, injuring at least one agent,
00:03:14.560 launching fireworks, tossing shopping carts, and other large objects in the streets.
00:03:19.820 On Sunday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem telling CBS that LAPD waited several hours
00:03:25.320 to respond to their calls for assistance.
00:03:27.840 Unfortunately, waiting several hours for LAPD to show up or telling them,
00:03:32.780 them telling us that they're not going to back us up until they have an officer in a dangerous situation
00:03:36.960 is something that just isn't workable when you have violent protests going on.
00:03:41.600 That's one of the reasons that you've seen the National Guard come in
00:03:44.220 and help us with those security operations.
00:03:46.960 President Trump invoking a federal law to deploy the National Guard,
00:03:50.380 a less common but not unprecedented move that places the Guard under federal control
00:03:54.640 rather than state authority.
00:03:56.160 The order reading in part, quote,
00:03:58.040 In addition, the Secretary of Defense may employ any other members
00:04:01.580 of the regular armed forces as necessary.
00:04:04.860 Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom responding on X, quote,
00:04:07.540 The federal government is taking over the California National Guard,
00:04:11.520 not because there's a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.
00:04:15.920 Don't give them one.
00:04:17.040 Never use violence.
00:04:18.320 Speak out peacefully.
00:04:20.120 Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth writing Saturday on X, quote,
00:04:23.340 If violence continues, active duty Marines at Camp Pendleton will also be mobilized.
00:04:28.420 They are on high alert.
00:04:30.180 Newsom calling Hegseth's threat, quote,
00:04:32.360 Deranged behavior and Hegseth responding on X, quote,
00:04:35.880 Deranged equals allowing your city to burn and law enforcement to be attacked.
00:04:41.120 There's plenty of room for peaceful protest,
00:04:43.280 but zero tolerance for attacking federal agents who are doing their job.
00:04:47.360 The National Guard and Marines, if need be, stand with ice, unquote.
00:04:51.840 President Trump was asked Sunday afternoon about sending in the Marines.
00:04:55.320 What is the bar for sending Marines?
00:04:58.000 The bar is what I think it is.
00:04:59.360 I mean, if we see danger to our country and to our citizens,
00:05:02.940 we'll be very, very strong in terms of law and order.
00:05:05.660 It's about law and order.
00:05:07.340 L.A. Mayor Karen Bass speaking with NBC News, saying
00:05:10.020 she'll do anything she can to protect the illegal aliens from ice.
00:05:15.560 We are going to fight for all Angelenos, regardless of when they got here,
00:05:20.900 whether they have papers or not.
00:05:22.860 We are a city of immigrants,
00:05:24.620 and this impacts hundreds of thousands of Angelenos.
00:05:29.360 U.S. Attorney Bill Assaylee on Saturday telling a local CBS station
00:05:32.860 what federal agents were doing in the sanctuary city.
00:05:36.000 There's no raids.
00:05:37.140 Yesterday, we executed several search warrants at workplaces
00:05:40.440 that are in violation of federal laws.
00:05:42.480 It was a warrant signed by a federal judge.
00:05:44.900 They're violating labor laws.
00:05:46.260 They're violating,
00:05:47.980 they had fraudulent records they're using for their employees,
00:05:51.260 all kinds of stuff.
00:05:51.960 So we had warrants to go there.
00:05:53.140 The other activities that we're doing this weekend and what will continue
00:05:57.180 is the targeted enforcement.
00:05:59.780 We're out.
00:06:00.540 We're looking for criminal illegal aliens who have arrest warrants 1.00
00:06:03.580 and final deportation orders.
00:06:05.940 People have deportation orders.
00:06:07.660 We're arresting really bad people out there.
00:06:10.360 We're child abusers and violent criminals.
00:06:13.340 We're getting them out of the country, 0.98
00:06:15.000 and that's what the American people voted for.
00:06:16.800 And that's going to continue.
00:06:18.760 That's not stopping.
00:06:19.500 DHS reporting ICE operations in the Los Angeles area this week
00:06:23.560 resulted in at least 118 arrests of illegal aliens
00:06:27.460 with criminal histories,
00:06:28.720 including child cruelty, drug trafficking,
00:06:31.180 assault, robbery, murder, sex crimes, and domestic violence.
00:06:35.220 Borders are Tom Homan Saturday on Fox,
00:06:37.140 saying the federal operation in Los Angeles will continue.
00:06:40.820 What people aren't talking about is ICE served,
00:06:43.080 you know, several warrants yesterday.
00:06:45.460 These were criminal warrants.
00:06:46.520 This is a criminal investigation.
00:06:47.780 And today, we're continuing operations.
00:06:51.080 They're not going to shut us down.
00:06:52.460 We're out of the right now doing operations.
00:06:54.040 We're going to keep doing operations.
00:06:55.200 We brought in more resources to push back to protesters,
00:06:58.320 but I'll say it again, a serious warning.
00:07:01.200 You can protest all you want.
00:07:02.540 You've got your First Amendment rights.
00:07:04.180 But if you cross that line of impeachment
00:07:05.720 or you're putting hands on officers or destroy property,
00:07:08.780 you will be prosecuted.
00:07:10.340 We're making Los Angeles safer.
00:07:12.060 And Mayor Bass ought to be thanking us
00:07:14.220 for making her city safer.
00:07:17.780 Kilmar Abrego-Garcia, the so-called Maryland man,
00:07:21.280 who is actually a Salvadoran national,
00:07:23.940 credibly accused of MS-13 membership,
00:07:26.300 is back on U.S. soil with a caveat.
00:07:28.960 He's now facing two federal charges
00:07:31.040 relating to human smuggling.
00:07:33.260 You may remember many media outlets,
00:07:35.040 including the New York Times, Axios, USA Today,
00:07:37.340 and the Washington Post,
00:07:38.800 all referring to Abrego-Garcia as just a Maryland man,
00:07:42.380 despite his status as an illegal immigrant.
00:07:44.600 Two immigration courts previously determining
00:07:47.440 there was sufficient evidence of his MS-13 membership
00:07:50.640 to deny him release on bond
00:07:53.060 as we were considering whether to deport him.
00:07:56.020 In 2019, an immigration judge granting Abrego-Garcia
00:07:59.320 withholding of removal to El Salvador,
00:08:02.760 meaning he was indeed deportable,
00:08:05.340 but the one nation he could not be sent back to
00:08:07.820 was his home country of El Salvador,
00:08:10.600 where he feared gang retaliation.
00:08:12.520 That is, unless that gang problem
00:08:14.880 was eliminated in the future.
00:08:17.220 In March of this year,
00:08:18.220 the feds deporting Abrego-Garcia
00:08:19.680 to a maximum security prison in El Salvador,
00:08:22.760 kicking off a legal battle that eventually landed
00:08:24.720 before the U.S. Supreme Court.
00:08:26.700 In April, the justices ordering the Trump administration
00:08:28.960 to facilitate, but not effectuate, his return.
00:08:33.620 President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele,
00:08:35.860 initially declining to release Abrego-Garcia,
00:08:38.540 calling the idea preposterous,
00:08:39.840 given his Salvadoran citizenship and his membership in MS-13.
00:08:44.340 Attorney General Pam Bondi on Friday
00:08:46.080 announcing Abrego-Garcia's return to the U.S.
00:08:49.740 Abrego-Garcia has landed in the United States
00:08:53.000 to face justice.
00:08:55.320 On May 21st, a grand jury in the Middle District of Tennessee
00:08:58.840 returned a sealed indictment,
00:09:01.600 charging Abrego-Garcia with alien smuggling
00:09:04.840 and conspiracy to commit alien smuggling
00:09:07.840 in violation of Title VIII U.S.C. 1324.
00:09:11.580 We want to thank President Bukele
00:09:14.440 for agreeing to return Abrego-Garcia to the United States.
00:09:19.440 Our government presented El Salvador with an arrest warrant,
00:09:23.360 and they agreed to return him to our country.
00:09:26.840 A.G. Bondi describing the nature of the charges.
00:09:28.980 The grand jury found that over the past nine years,
00:09:33.920 Abrego-Garcia has played a significant role
00:09:37.200 in an alien smuggling ring.
00:09:40.840 They found this was his full-time job,
00:09:44.280 not a contractor.
00:09:45.960 He was a smuggler of humans and children and women. 0.98
00:09:50.240 He made over a hundred trips,
00:09:52.960 the grand jury found smuggling people
00:09:56.600 throughout our country.
00:09:59.060 MS-13 members, violent gang,
00:10:02.360 terrorist organization members
00:10:04.180 throughout our country.
00:10:06.820 These charges coming after the release of body cam footage
00:10:09.580 by Tennessee Highway Patrol
00:10:11.080 of a 2022 traffic stop involving Abrego-Garcia.
00:10:15.800 Prosecutors say the video shows Abrego-Garcia
00:10:17.820 transporting nine other Hispanic men without luggage,
00:10:20.960 claiming they were traveling from a construction site
00:10:23.640 in St. Louis to Maryland.
00:10:26.160 Tennessee Highway Patrol confirming no charges
00:10:28.180 were pursued at that time,
00:10:29.980 as federal officials under the Biden administration
00:10:32.360 made the decision not to detain Abrego-Garcia.
00:10:35.980 According to the indictment,
00:10:37.140 quote,
00:10:37.800 Kilmar Armando Abrego-Garcia and co-conspirators one and two
00:10:41.680 transported undocumented aliens in an unsafe manner. 1.00
00:10:45.400 They transported children on the floorboards of vehicles
00:10:47.940 in order to maximize profits.
00:10:49.800 The indictment also alleges
00:10:51.660 one of the unnamed co-conspirators
00:10:53.420 says he received reports
00:10:54.920 that Abrego-Garcia abused
00:10:56.840 some of the female passengers
00:10:58.280 he ferried around the country.
00:11:00.300 These allegations tracking
00:11:01.520 with new information we've learned
00:11:02.980 about Abrego-Garcia
00:11:03.880 since the beginning of this case.
00:11:06.260 Abrego-Garcia's wife,
00:11:07.960 who has called for his return,
00:11:09.600 telling Good Morning America
00:11:10.780 he is a very loving husband,
00:11:13.280 previously filing
00:11:14.200 multiple protective order requests against him.
00:11:16.580 One 2020 filing claimed he bragged he could kill her
00:11:20.000 and, quote,
00:11:20.860 no one could do anything to him.
00:11:22.740 And in a 2021 separate protective order request,
00:11:26.100 she alleges Abrego-Garcia punched,
00:11:28.180 scratched,
00:11:28.900 and grabbed her,
00:11:29.920 leaving her bruised and bloodied.
00:11:32.340 Democrats who have lionized Abrego-Garcia,
00:11:34.860 casting him as a hero in their fight
00:11:36.780 against the Trump administration's
00:11:38.200 mass deportation effort,
00:11:40.100 are suddenly not so keen
00:11:41.440 on promoting his wonderful qualities.
00:11:43.940 Everyone has a right to due process,
00:11:45.820 and anyone who stands up for that,
00:11:47.480 even for people who don't inspire
00:11:49.520 necessarily public adoration,
00:11:52.080 we understand that in our nation,
00:11:54.720 when you come after our Constitution,
00:11:56.960 you are doing the wrong thing.
00:11:58.240 They obviously want to make this
00:11:59.600 about whether or not
00:12:00.560 he ends up being a good guy or a bad guy,
00:12:02.620 but it's not a moral question,
00:12:04.120 it's a legal question,
00:12:05.500 it's a constitutional question.
00:12:07.400 All I have said from the beginning
00:12:08.920 is that the Trump administration
00:12:10.940 should respect the rule of law
00:12:13.900 and the Constitution of the United States.
00:12:16.500 That last soundbite from
00:12:17.580 Democrat Senator from Maryland,
00:12:19.200 Chris Van Hollen,
00:12:20.040 who traveled all the way to El Salvador
00:12:21.900 in a publicity stunt
00:12:23.260 to bring more attention to the case.
00:12:25.940 White House Deputy Chief of Staff,
00:12:27.340 Stephen Miller,
00:12:27.920 describing the Trump administration's
00:12:29.320 plan for Abrego-Garcia.
00:12:30.800 This illegal alien monster 1.00
00:12:33.740 is going to be held accountable
00:12:35.960 for his terrible crimes
00:12:38.200 against women and children.
00:12:40.200 And then guess what, Sean?
00:12:41.580 After he does hard time
00:12:43.220 in an American jail,
00:12:44.720 guess where he's going?
00:12:45.620 Right back to El Salvador.
00:12:48.780 Coming up,
00:12:49.960 Sean Diddy Combs' legal team

00:14:08.220 filing for a mistrial
00:14:09.500 in the criminal case
00:14:10.700 against the disgraced mogul.
00:14:12.080 The motion relating to testimony
00:14:13.940 from alleged victim
00:14:15.280 Brianna Bongolan.
00:14:17.140 Bongolan testifying
00:14:18.340 that Combs dangled her 1.00
00:14:19.760 over star witness
00:14:20.740 Cassie Ventura's
00:14:21.620 17-story Los Angeles balcony
00:14:23.620 in September 2016.
00:14:26.180 As evidence,
00:14:27.040 she pointed to photos
00:14:27.940 taken on her phone
00:14:28.840 the following day
00:14:29.760 showing the injuries
00:14:31.220 she claims
00:14:32.020 she sustained the day before,
00:14:34.140 including bruising on her leg.
00:14:36.180 The defense,
00:14:36.880 in an effort to rebut
00:14:37.980 the balcony allegations,
00:14:39.760 providing receipts
00:14:40.460 they claim prove
00:14:41.380 Combs and Ventura
00:14:42.440 were in New York
00:14:43.680 at the time
00:14:44.200 of the alleged incident.
00:14:45.800 Combs' legal team
00:14:46.620 calling Bongolan's testimony
00:14:48.100 quote,
00:14:48.640 demonstrably false
00:14:49.700 in key respects.
00:14:51.140 The judge is expected
00:14:51.880 to weigh in on the motion
00:14:52.880 later today.
00:14:55.760 Eleven-time Olympic medalist
00:14:57.620 Simone Biles
00:14:58.420 lashing out
00:14:59.360 against former college swimmer,
00:15:01.040 now advocate
00:15:01.580 for protecting female sports,
00:15:03.420 Riley Gaines.
00:15:04.540 The backstory?
00:15:05.640 On Friday,
00:15:06.420 a high school softball team
00:15:07.820 in Minnesota
00:15:08.420 won the girls' 0.95
00:15:09.640 state championship
00:15:10.420 with the help
00:15:11.200 of a male pitcher
00:15:12.160 posing as female
00:15:13.460 who absolutely
00:15:14.660 crushed the competition.
00:15:16.600 The boy allowing 0.68
00:15:17.460 just two runs
00:15:18.500 in 35 total
00:15:19.960 postseason innings,
00:15:21.240 according to Fox News.
00:15:22.620 He was a tough opponent
00:15:23.620 for the actual girls. 0.98
00:15:26.180 Gaines reposting
00:15:27.060 a picture of the team
00:15:27.940 and their celebratory post
00:15:29.420 and noting quote,
00:15:31.000 comments off,
00:15:31.980 LOL,
00:15:32.860 to be expected
00:15:33.460 when your star player
00:15:34.340 is a boy.
00:15:35.760 Biles responding
00:15:36.540 hours later,
00:15:37.420 quote,
00:15:37.960 Riley Gaines,
00:15:38.640 you're truly sick. 0.53
00:15:39.860 All of this campaigning
00:15:40.900 because you lost a race.
00:15:42.760 Straight up sore loser.
00:15:44.340 You should be uplifting
00:15:45.360 the trans community
00:15:46.260 and perhaps finding a way
00:15:47.540 to make sports inclusive
00:15:48.700 or creating new avenues
00:15:50.420 where trans feel safe
00:15:51.760 in sports.
00:15:52.620 Maybe a transgender category 0.95
00:15:54.000 in all sports,
00:15:55.400 but instead you bully them.
00:15:57.160 One thing's for sure
00:15:58.000 is no one in sports
00:15:59.380 is safe with you around.
00:16:01.760 Biles then following up
00:16:02.760 with this quote,
00:16:03.860 bully someone
00:16:04.360 your own size,
00:16:05.380 which would ironically
00:16:06.320 be a male,
00:16:07.460 Riley Gaines.
00:16:08.780 Many critics pointing out
00:16:09.760 the hypocritical nature
00:16:10.640 of this post
00:16:11.320 given Biles' past work
00:16:13.180 in which she claimed
00:16:14.660 to be a body
00:16:16.280 positivity advocate.
00:16:17.200 I got made fun of
00:16:19.840 for my arms a lot.
00:16:21.320 Some people would say
00:16:22.020 like mean things.
00:16:23.180 They used to call me
00:16:23.760 like a soldier.
00:16:25.220 At the time,
00:16:26.200 it didn't make me feel the best,
00:16:27.540 so I wore sweaters
00:16:28.920 or jackets all year long.
00:16:30.620 Now I show off my arms
00:16:31.620 all the time.
00:16:32.740 Biles also spoke out
00:16:33.780 against Dr. Larry Nassar,
00:16:35.320 who she says molested her
00:16:36.680 for years
00:16:37.320 as the USA Gymnastics
00:16:39.060 team doctor.
00:16:40.020 He's now in jail,
00:16:41.300 which led many women's advocates 0.99
00:16:42.960 now to question
00:16:44.020 how she can defend 0.59
00:16:45.300 allowing men
00:16:46.320 into girls' locker rooms
00:16:47.640 and private spaces,
00:16:49.040 all of which comes
00:16:49.960 with their entry
00:16:50.800 into girls' sports.
00:16:52.560 Gaines responded
00:16:53.240 to Biles Saturday
00:16:54.060 in this video
00:16:54.960 posted to social media.
00:16:56.620 Number one,
00:16:57.180 she's acknowledging
00:16:57.720 there are differences,
00:16:58.700 like physiological,
00:16:59.880 biological differences
00:17:00.860 between men and women 0.90
00:17:02.560 in saying this.
00:17:03.540 Secondly,
00:17:04.460 I'm 5'5",
00:17:05.620 which might seem
00:17:06.760 like a giant
00:17:07.360 to someone who's
00:17:08.100 like 4'7",
00:17:09.080 4'8",
00:17:09.840 but I'm pretty standard size
00:17:11.760 for a woman.
00:17:12.660 I guess like
00:17:13.160 relatively muscular,
00:17:14.880 right,
00:17:15.060 being an athlete,
00:17:15.880 I would imagine
00:17:16.640 Simone would understand that,
00:17:18.200 but I weigh like
00:17:19.020 135 pounds,
00:17:20.760 5'5",
00:17:21.420 of pretty much
00:17:23.100 pure muscle.
00:17:24.160 And again,
00:17:24.840 if anyone would
00:17:25.840 understand that,
00:17:26.700 you would think
00:17:27.140 it's Simone Biles,
00:17:28.140 a woman who has
00:17:29.100 historically been
00:17:30.380 scrutinized for having
00:17:31.620 a very muscular,
00:17:33.220 masculine-looking body.
00:17:34.540 She was scrutinized
00:17:35.260 to the point she did
00:17:36.000 this whole body
00:17:37.100 positivity campaign,
00:17:38.960 then she has the nerve 0.57
00:17:40.380 to say that
00:17:41.660 I look like a man.
00:17:43.040 Gaines also firing back
00:17:44.040 that she did not lose
00:17:45.480 to male swimmer
00:17:46.340 Leah Thomas.
00:17:47.040 They both tied for fifth.
00:17:48.940 Gaines then retweeting
00:17:49.800 a 2017 social media post
00:17:51.640 from Biles responding
00:17:52.720 to a now-deactivated account
00:17:54.320 with the message,
00:17:55.420 ah,
00:17:56.120 good thing guys
00:17:56.920 don't compete against girls 0.99
00:17:58.200 or he would take
00:17:59.140 all the gold medals.
00:18:00.960 USA Today,
00:18:01.780 whose opinion writer
00:18:02.620 Nancy Armour
00:18:03.580 has never seen a boy
00:18:04.860 she wouldn't enthusiastically
00:18:06.380 welcome into girls sports,
00:18:08.300 penning a piece entitled,
00:18:09.280 Simone Biles shows
00:18:11.100 her greatness again
00:18:12.620 in standing up
00:18:13.820 for transgender community.
00:18:15.880 Greatness?
00:18:16.660 More like wokeness, 0.87
00:18:18.160 pettiness,
00:18:18.820 and insensitivity
00:18:19.980 to the female athletes 0.71
00:18:21.420 coming up behind her.
00:18:22.660 But hey,
00:18:23.400 that's just the opinion
00:18:24.180 of one woman.
00:18:25.820 Well,
