President Donald Trump is withdrawing roughly half of the National Guard force sent to Los Angeles to quell the anti-ICE riots that engulfed the city last month.

Nearly 4,000 National Guard soldiers and 700 Marines have been guarding federal facilities in Los Angeles for more than a month, their deployment sparking a national conflict over the president’s ability to send the soldiers to a U.S. city. Weeks after the riots had died down, the Trump administration began its phased withdrawal from the city by ordering the withdrawal of roughly 2,000 soldiers.
