To have armored vehicles deployed on the streets of our city, to federalize the National Guard, to have the U.S. Marines who are trained to kill abroad, deployed to our city — all of this is outrageous and it is un-American.
Mayor Bass criticized the military deployment in Los Angeles during a joint ICE-military operation.

I just want to repeat the irony that I am going to sign an executive directive to help the city family understand how to protect the workforce and Angelenos from our federal government.
It is outrageous and un-American that the federal government that seized our state's National Guard.
To me, this is another example of the administration ratcheting up chaos by deploying what looked like a military operation in an American city.
You have a situation now where people are walking down the street, a car will pull up, no license plate, men will jump out completely masked, pull guns on whoever it is and take them away.
