The protest at Trump Tower in New York City followed President Donald Trump’s decision to deploy the Guard to Los Angeles this weekend to quell anti-immigration riots taking place there.

The military has put about 700 Marines on high alert to possibly deploy to Los Angeles, three U.S. officials told CBS News, two days after Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said they could be sent to the city "if violence continues."

Doechii is using her voice to bring attention to the protests happening in Los Angeles. The rapper took home the prize for Best Female Hip Hop artists at the 2025 BET Awards on June 9 and addressed the Los Angeles ICE protests during her acceptance speech.
