In a statement, Harris expressed her dismay over the situation, criticizing what she views as a strategy by the Trump Administration to instigate panic and division among the populace. Despite ongoing protests in the city, which have included incidents of violence, Harris characterized these demonstrations as &#8220;overwhelmingly peaceful&#8221; and an essential means for advocating justice. She emphasized her support for those standing up for essential rights and freedoms. Simultaneously occurring, California Governor Gavin Newsom has urged the administration to revoke its deployment order, labeling it &#8220;unlawful.&#8221; The White House defends the decision as a necessary response to what it perceives as a lack of effective leadership in addressing the unrest.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Kamala Harris condemns National Guard deployment, claims LA riots are &lsquo;overwhelmingly peaceful&rsquo;<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2111304\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Former Vice President <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/kamala-harris\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Kamala Harris<\/a> blasted President <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a>&lsquo;s order to deploy the National Guard to <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/los-angeles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Los Angeles<\/a>, saying she is &ldquo;appalled&rdquo; by the &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/palestinian-mobs-raiding-food-storages-show-collapse-of-hamass-power\/\" title=\"Palestinian mobs raiding food storages show collapse of Hamas...s power\">dangerous escalation&#038;rdquo<\/a>; from the president.<\/p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/KamalaHarris\/status\/1931856677881667634\/photo\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"statement\">statement<\/a>, Harris said the deployment, which was initiated on Saturday night, is &ldquo;part of the Trump Administration&rsquo;s cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3435081\/newsom-demands-trump-rescind-national-guard-deployment-order\/\">Newsom demands Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-pulls-65-pending-trump-executive-orders\/\" title=\"Biden Pulls 65 Pending Trump Executive ...s\">administration rescind<\/a> &#8216;unlawful&#8217; National Guard deployment order<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3435051\/trump-national-guard-will-be-everywhere-la-ice-protests\/\">Trump says National Guard will be &#8216;everywhere&#8217; in LA amid ICE protests<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3435000\/abc-news-terry-moran-suspended-rant-world-class-hater-stephen-miller\/\">ABC News&#8217;s Terry Moran suspended after online rant on &lsquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >world-class hater&#038;rsquo<\/a>; Stephen Miller<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;Los Angeles is my home.
