President Donald Trump will address U.S. soldiers on Tuesday as his administration deploys 700 Marines to Los Angeles in an escalating response to street protests over his immigration policies.

California sued Trump over the deployment, with the state attorney general arguing that the president had “trampled” the state’s sovereignty. California leaders accused Trump of fanning protesters’ anger, leading crowds to block off a major freeway and set self-driving cars on fire.

California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is suing the Trump administration, calls the president "dictatorial" and "deranged".
