Trump ordered ICE "to do all in their power" to achieve deportation goals.
The Department of Homeland Security confirmed to ABC News that it issued new guidance to pause most raids on farms, restaurants, and hotels, after President Trump earlier this week shifted his stance on targeting undocumented workers in those industries.
Meanwhile, a massive military parade to mark the Army's 250th birthday will be underway Saturday in Washington, D.C.
President Donald Trump spoke about the military parade in Washington, D.C., this weekend and issued a stark warning to protesters.
"For those people who want to protest, they're going to be met with very big force," he said, adding that these were people who "hate our country."
President Donald Trump on Tuesday was asked if he would use the Insurrection Act as a response to the protests in Los Angeles over his administration's immigration crackdown.
"If there's an insurrection, we would certainly invoke it. We will see," Trump responded.
"There were areas of Los Angeles last night where you could call it an insurrection," he later added. He again claimed, without evidence, that the protesters are "paid insurrectionists."

The Pentagon’s top budget official is estimating the deployment of U.S. troops to Los Angeles will cost $134 million.
Pentagon Comptroller Bryn Woollacott MacDonnell said the money will be pulled from the troops’ existing operations and maintenance accounts.
Defense Secretary Hegseth said the current plan is for the deployment to last 60 days.

California Democrat Pete Aguilar pressed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Gov. Gavin Newsom's claim that National Guard troops were sent to Los Angeles without food and water and had to sleep on the floor.
"The commanders and troops on the field are very well-prepared, sir," Hegseth responded. "They responded incredibly rapidly to a deteriorating situation with equipment and capabilities ... There are moments where you make do as best you can temporarily, but we are ensuring they are housed, fed, water capabilities in real-time from my office because I care that much about the California Guard and the Marines and the men and women who are supporting crises on the ground."
Hegseth posted two images on X on Monday with a message aimed at Trump: "You sent your troops here without fuel, food, water or a place to sleep. Here they are — being forced to sleep on the floor, piled on top of one another. If anyone is treating our troops disrespectfully, it is you."
