After some 2,000 federalized National Guard troops were released from their immigration-related deployments to Los Angeles last week, roughly 700 U.S. Marines will now begin being withdrawn from the city and returned to their normal duties, the Pentagon announced Monday.
“With stability returning to Los Angeles, the Secretary has directed the redeployment of the 700 Marines whose presence sent a clear message: lawlessness will no be tolerated,” chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said in a statement Monday, referring to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
“Their rapid response, unwavering discipline and unmistakable presence were instrumental in restoring order and upholding the rule of law. We’re deeply grateful for their service, and for the strength and professionalism they brought to this mission.”
The Marine withdrawal was expected to be completed as soon as Tuesday.
The Pentagon confirmation followed a morning news conference in Sylmar in which L.A. Mayor Karen Bass and state Sen. Caroline Mejivar, D-Panorama City, posted a video on social media hailing the decision to redeploy those 700 Marines.
“We just had a press conference calling for the removal of all of the troops, and we just got word that the Marines will be able to go back to their families and will be leaving Los Angeles,” Bass said.
She added, “I’d like to say that they heard from the people of Los Angeles.”
Mejivar, who served in the Marine Corps from 2009-16, said that the deployment of troops to L.A. was unnecessary.
“I’m so glad to hear my brothers and sisters are going back to their base,” Mejivar said.
The two elected officials held a news conference at Mission College alongside other veterans and families of service members.
Bass emphasized that Los Angeles needs the National Guard to assist and prepare for fire season, not for immigration enforcement and related protests.
“The administration, we know, has retreated some of the forces, but we need all the troops to return home and to not be here, to not be used as political stunts, to not be used to intimidate Angelenos, and to not be used as pawns,” Bass said.
Menjivar echoed the mayor’s sentiments, saying, “This is why it was so personal and infuriating to me to see 700 of my brothers and sisters in the corps deployed to my backyard because we did not sign up to intimidate and potentially take military action against Americans on American soil, who are exercising their constitutional right to protest.”
Menjivar served in the Marine Corps from 2009 to 2016 and was stationed in Miramar, La Jolla, as a radio operator and communications platoon sergeant.
She also criticized the Trump administration for spending what she called said was about $134 million taxpayer dollars with the deployment of troops to Los Angeles.
Vet Voice Foundation CEO Janessa Goldbeck, a national nonprofit, who served in the Marine Corps as a combat engineer officer, said the deployment of active-duty marines and National Guard troops in support of domestic immigration enforcement is not a routine operation.
“It is a break with longstanding norms and a decision that should concern every American, regardless of political affiliation,” Goldbeck said.
“…The job of the American military is to fight and win wars, not police American neighborhoods,” Goldbeck added. “When we blur that line, we don’t just risk overreach. We risk something deeper, the erosion of public trust in both our armed forces and in our democratic institutions.”
L.A. County Supervisor Hilda Solis called the withdrawal of Marines “long overdue.”
“There is no place for a militarized presence in our communities — especially when residents are peacefully demonstrating and exercising their constitutional rights,” Solis said in a statement. “These armed service members trained for battlefield, not for deployment among civilians.”
She further called on the federal government to release the remaining National Guard members.
“There are natural disasters across the state and nation, where their skills and service are urgently needed. That is where they belong,” Solis added.
Meanwhile, Gov. Gavin Newsom said that members of the National Guard “deserve more than to continue serving as puppets in Trump and Stephen Miller’s performative political theater.”
“There was never a need for the military to deploy against civilians in Los Angeles,” Newsom said in a statement issued Monday afternoon. “The damage is done, however. We, again, call upon them to do the right thing and end the militarization once and for all.”
According to Newsom’s office, the National Guard estimates that its members have been pulled from essential civilian duties such as medical and first responders, service workers, building trades contractors, and law enforcement, among other jobs.
On June 7, President Donald Trump ordered that 2,000 California National Guard troops be brought under federal control and deployed to Los Angeles to protect federal facilities and personnel one day after sometimes destructive protests erupted — mainly in the downtown area. The protests came in reaction to widespread immigration raids and other enforcement actions.
Another 2,000 troops were later added to that deployment, along with 700 U.S. Marines tasked with guarding federal property.
The number of federalized California National Guard troops deployed to the Los Angeles area was cut to 2,000 last week after a withdrawal of another 2,000.
In an interview broadcast Sunday, Bass again criticized the Trump administration’s ongoing crackdown on illegal immigration in the city, saying Los Angeles is dependent on “immigrant labor.”
“Because we are a city of immigrants, we have entire sectors of our economy that are dependent on immigrant labor. We have to get the fire areas rebuilt. We’re not going to get our city rebuilt without immigrant labor,” Bass told said on ABC News’ “The Week.”
Bass has repeatedly called for the end of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in the city, which began June 6. She and other Democrats, including Gov. Gavin Newsom, have accused the Trump administration of targeting people based on their skin color — claims the government denies — and sowing fear in the local immigrant community.
Bass has also accused the administration of reneging on its pledge to target those with criminal histories for deportation, saying most of those being detained in local raids are otherwise law-abiding residents, notwithstanding their immigration status.
White House officials have repeatedly defended the deployments.
“President Trump is fulfilling the promise he was elected on — carrying out the largest mass deportation operation of criminal illegal aliens,” Abigail Jackson, a White House spokeswoman told City News Service in an email.
“While Karen Bass continues to support dangerous policies that put Americans at risk, ICE is removing threats from our streets. Just recently in Los Angeles, ICE arrested a criminal illegal alien with a conviction for second-degree murder, indecent exposure and a final deportation order from 2012.
“This is one of countless successful operations to go after the worst-of-the-worst that Karen Bass opposes. ICE is keeping communities safe, yet Karen Bass wants dangerous criminal illegals, like this man, to stay in America. She couldn’t be more out of touch.”
Asked on ABC who should be deported, Bass initially did not answer the question, but said “even people who are here legally, even people who are U.S. citizens, have been detained. Immigrants who have their papers and were showing up for their — their annual immigration appointment were detained when they showed up doing exactly what they were supposed to be doing.”
Pressed if the nearly “one million undocumented workers” in Los Angeles should be allowed to stay, Bass said, “This is what I think. … What I take it we need is comprehensive immigration reform.”
Reminded that Congress failed to pass such a bill in her 12 years in the House of Representatives, Bass cited a proposed bill in 2024 that received strong support from Democrats, and some Republicans, but ultimately failed after Trump, then a presidential candidate, opposed it.
“After I left, there was an immigration reform bill that had bipartisan support. This was during the campaign. The president decided he didn’t want to have it happen because he didn’t want immigration reform to happen where he didn’t take credit for it,” she said.
” … Let me just tell you that the people that make that trek, many of whom walk from Central America and even South America up to our border, risk their lives,” the mayor continued. “I don’t believe that all of these people are sitting at home dreaming of coming to Los Angeles. They’re coming here out of desperation.”
Statistics show that illegal crossings at the U.S./Mexico border have dropped to historically low levels after Trump took office in January. Bass was asked if she thought Trump had done anything good at the border.
“I will heap praise on the administration for the first six months in Los Angeles with the fires. If you ask me, is there anything that they have done good in terms of immigration? I don’t know. I don’t think so,” she said. “I think that the viewpoint has been punitive, has been, let’s make it as miserable as possible so that these people don’t come.”
Bass said she has a request in to speak with Trump administration officials about the raids and the ongoing National Guard deployment in the city, but has not had any conversations recently.
“I want to work with the administration to solve this problem. We have the World Cup in 11 short months here. We have the Olympics and Paralympics coming in three short years,” she said.
“I know that these games are very important to the president, and I look forward to working with him and we have an extreme difference on this issue, but there’s many issues for us to work on. And I will continue trying to outreach to the administration and hope that at some point they’ll be responsive.”
How this is so fucking much bullshit on here that you had to make up the whole fucking thing on the screen right so it would take all fucking day to get through all the fucking bullshit of not knowing a fucking thing right there was no Marines at all they were just a bunch of LAPD officers and Marine uniforms but yet the Marines got out of the Los Angeles area because Donald Trump released him right at what point do you not understand Adolf Hitler’s been running this country for centuries man.
The Gender Issue!!!;
The Curse of Medusa
Every man was conceived to be a woman long before natural selection comes along and only reason natural selection comes along is because your father ran down the street fucking everybody else and never fuck you constantly for 9 months straight so you popped out as a shemale to take care of and treat your mother with respect and honor better than your father did and you tossed her to the curb to pick up with another woman. Second of all everybody came from Medusa’s daughter Eve when we ran out of the garden with Medusa’s daughter Eve we ran out of the garden of Eden with a serpent’s child being a serpent child every man is conceived to be a woman long before natural selection and every woman was conceived to be a man so the only gender dysphobia issue is we’re all transgender no matter what.
And the second part!
Ever since Julius Caesar was knife down in that tunnel we’ve always had to lay our head between the legs of a serpent we’ve always been conceived as a serpent child that falls out with a penis legs and arms hair on our head because the Roman senate made it So now here we are after five and a half flood’s and the serpent blood has gotten really stretched thin there is demons coming out of them the children are turning into God awful creatures and how you go out there and you execute somebody by taking the man’s life and murdering him and you wonder why he came back as a female serial killer and I call that precognant policing.
And the third part:
Hell Im the one that I got up on the cross to die for every man’s sin because how you got to sleep next to her everyday, She point out to him that the kettle is black but yet never understand how you’re the only homosexual on the planet conceived to be a man and fell out with a pussy and a pair of tits because how that’s how our life cycle starts every egg cracks open and the snakes slithers out vagina and you wonder why God won’t talk to you.
I’ve given up the Need to Serpents Sex, Since every Child starts out as a Snake. When it cracks the egg and slithers down the uterus to bite the umbilical cord to Grow Arms & Legs & Hair with a Human-Like Appearance! That thinks he’s a man!
Wouldn’t it be better being a person that didn’t have to change for someone else’s opinion because the fact that were conceived to be a female snake and you fell out as a female / Male Appearing human being. From conception to 13 weeks the species inside of birthing stage there’s no head there’s there’s no arms no legs there’s no hair on the body there’s nothing it’s just a Snake at one end and a Tail at the other end and it gestation process in the middle.
That had to be wrestle with a snake charmer could be hypnotizing to doing absolutely the opposite of what you wanted to do in the world how your own mother would chop your own head off with a 10,000 fold sword and sit there and ask what did they done they got somebody to spray them in the face with a concoction of DMT crystal meth heroin and the list keeps going on anthrax ansied benzene they would pump these drugs into these people while they were Ass Raping them all how they gave them all catheters out there at Desert Palm everybody got a catheter out there after they killed all the people that they need to do all this work cuz a lot of your entire celebrity list out there in the world
that grew a penis because she was Transgender as well as you were only male because we’re both in our period stage at the moment for you’re not conceived to be a woman you were conceived to be a man and fell out with women parts for he was conceived to be a woman and he fell out with the penis for where all conceived to be in egg that we hatch out and slither down to the uterus to bite ahold of the umbilical cord so that the serpent is conformed into a human appearing person. With head,arms,legs and hair on our body and fall out.
Here we are the serpenters trying to figure out our own life & our own expectancy of what was going to happen and here we are trying to praise to the Lord Jesus Christ but he won’t look down upon us because hell we’re a Serpent Race that appears to be human. We use SETI to look into the space to find an alien racer to the intelligent as in a smart and speaks in the language that we speak in. But the problem for that is we’re a conceived to be a female snake that falls out appearing to be a human being hoping like hell we’re going to see another human being in space coming back at us. And there’s no intelligence is stupid as we are.
So I believe that they’re getting everybody ready for their next life and destroying the planet to nothing so that I can be here. As the king of nothing!
Just a bunch of unrecognized chicken in the fucking world man . You came from the uterus as an egg. Where would the Lions not be hungry for meat.
Could you tell if you were eating hamburger at The Hobbit griller if you were eating human being? How the next time you ordered an omelette are you going to ask for three or four human beings in the in the omelette? At least you can understand why there’s only a 96 IQ in population today around the world man. How when are they going to release new pictures of these drag queens?
