On June 8 local time, former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris issued a statement strongly condemning the Trump administration's response to the immigration protests in Los Angeles, expressing that she was 'shocked' by the local situation.

Harris posted on social media, stating: 'Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation aimed at inciting chaos.' She pointed out that this action is part of the Trump administration's 'cruel and deliberately orchestrated agenda to create panic and division,' similar to the recent immigration enforcement raids in Southern California and across the nation.
The White House has not yet responded to media requests for comment.
Harris also stated that the current protests are 'mostly peaceful'.
