In the days before protests erupted in Los Angeles, the Trump administration stepped up its efforts to detain migrants — taking into custody those who arrived for routine check-ins while also conducting workplace raids that have sent waves of fear across Southern California and beyond.

Los Angeles County residents can support local and regional organizations that are directly supporting families who were affected by recent ICE raids and immigrant communities in need.

Over the years, Trump has threatened to intercede in the state’s long-running homeless crisis, vowed to withhold federal wildfire aid as political leverage in a dispute over water rights, called on police to shoot people robbing stores and warned residents “your children are in danger” because of illegal immigration.

As dozens of workers are arrested by federal agents on California farms, others are skipping work in fear. Meanwhile fields go unharvested.

On Monday, there was a quiet hum of traffic passing on Colorado Boulevard outside the AC Hotel. A hotel employee, who declined to give his name, said it was quiet overnight with no additional protests outside the building. A lone flier that read “ICE out of LA” was placed on a third-floor balcony.

The development comes a day after an appeals court temporarily blocked a judge’s order that directed President Trump to return control of the California National Guard.

The defending champs face the Dominican Republic on Saturday night at SoFi Stadium, with Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum calling for no ICE action at the Inglewood venue.

Driving around in hopes of witnessing agents jumping out of trucks and detaining immigrants has become a grim pastime and form of protest for some Angelenos.
