More demonstrations are under way in Los Angeles as the Trump Administration more than tripled the number of troops in the city and Gov. Gavin Newsom sued to stop him.

After persistent questioning from members of Congress, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth turned to his acting comptroller, Bryn Woollacott MacDonnell, who provided the amount it would cost to send the National Guard and Marines to immigration protests in Los Angeles.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom called the move "purposefully inflammatory" and one that "will only escalate tensions."
