Speaker Mike Johnson, a Republican, supports President Trump's deployment of the National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles amid protests over Immigration and Customs Enforcement actions. Johnson criticized California Governor Gavin Newsom, suggesting he should be "tarred and feathered," a historical form of punishment, for not properly addressing the situation. Newsom has labeled the deployment a "blatant abuse of power" and sued the administration. Other Republicans have backed Trump's decision.
