U.S. military troops and federal immigration officers have made a brief but mighty show of force at MacArthur Park in Los Angeles. It was unclear if any arrests were made Monday before the National Guard soldiers and federal immigration agents left but their appearance baffled local officials and shook up an area dubbed the “Ellis Island of the West Coast." The park is a community hub in a largely immigrant neighborhood. Bass and Gov. Gavin Newsom called it a political stunt and spectacle meant to intimidate the city’s immigrant communities. The Department of Homeland Security says it does not discuss its operations and declined to comment.

A federal prosecutor says the U.S. government would initiate deportation proceedings against Kilmar Abrego Garcia if he's released from jail before trial on human smuggling charges. Justice Department attorney Jonathan Guynn made the disclosure to a federal judge in Maryland on Monday. It contradicts statements by officials from the Justice Department and the White House last month. Those officials said that Abrego Garcia would stand trial before any move is made to deport him. Abrego Garcia became a flashpoint over President Donald Trump's immigration policies after he was mistakenly deported to El Salvador in March.
