💨 Abstract

On June 13, 2025, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem vowed to continue the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown despite widespread unrest. A judge ordered President Trump to return control of National Guard troops deployed to California to Gov. Gavin Newsom. However, an appeals court temporarily blocked the order, setting a hearing for Tuesday. Protests, mostly peaceful, continued in cities nationwide, with Los Angeles facing an 8 p.m. curfew.
