Former Vice President Kamala Harris on Sunday slammed President Donald Trump’s decision to deploy the National Guard to quell immigration protests in Los Angeles, describing the move as a cynical part of his “cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division.”
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Harris said she was “appalled” over the scenes unfolding in the city.
“Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos,” she wrote. “In addition to the recent ICE raids in Southern California and across our nation, it is part of the Trump Administration’s cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division.”
“This Administration’s actions are not about public safety — they’re about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process,” she added.
