All traffic has been halted on a portion of the 101 freeway in Los Angeles as protesters walk on the freeway, according to Los Angeles Police Department. Both northbound and southbound lanes have been impacted, officials said. "101 freeway between Alameda and the 110 freeway is closed due to demonstrators walking onto the freeway," police said.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom delivered a statewide address on Tuesday in the wake of immigration operations that sparked days of protest in Los Angeles and the deployment of hundreds of National Guard and U.S. Marines troops to the area by President Trump.

According to police, 15 people were arrested in connection with the protests, far less than the 94 arrested during anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protests Downtown days earlier.

In an exclusive interview with Meet the Press, Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) condemns President Trump’s call to send the National Guard and Marines into Los Angeles amid protests and criticizes the forceful removal of fellow California Sen.
