Description: Citing a rarely used law, President Trump bypassed California's governor Gavin Newsom, and ordered two thousand national guard troops to Los Angeles for sixty days.

It's the first time in 60 years a president has used federal power to deploy national guard troops without the agreement of the state's governor.

NPR's Scott Detrow speaks with Los Angeles mayor Karen Bass and hears how people in the city are reacting.
