President Donald Trump has directed federal immigration officials to prioritize deportations from Democratic-run cities after large protests erupted.

Anti-Trump protesters rallied across the country yesterday as the president presided over a military parade in Washington. The administration’s immigration crackdown has prompted demonstrations in major US cities over the past week.

Protests against President Trump's deportation policies have divided Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill and across the country. Senator Ted Cruz, R-Texas, praised the President's decision to deploy the National Guard in California.

With protests blanketing the United States over the immigration crackdown — which is to say nothing of “No Kings Day” on Saturday — boxer Ryan Garcia couldn’t sit back anymore as Los Angeles, his home, has been wracked with ICE raids, protests and upheaval.

Denver was once again in President Donald Trump’s sights as he directed federal immigration officers to prioritize deportations from Democratic-run cities following large-scale protests across the U.S.

In the days before protests erupted in Los Angeles, the Trump administration stepped up its efforts to detain migrants — taking into custody those who arrived for routine check-ins while also conducting workplace raids that have sent waves of fear across Southern California and beyond.

Texas protests have remained largely peaceful, though DPS warned a small number of state lawmakers of a “credible threat” against them.

A Los Angeles Dodgers official was asked about the team's recent White House visit as their home city protests federal ICE raids.

Organizers behind the “No Kings” movement said the protests “come in response to President Trump’s escalating use of military force in American cities and a federal agenda that would strip health care from 16 million people while expanding ICE raids targeting immigrants and protestors,” according to a press release.
