The power of the US military will be sharply on display this weekend – on two different coasts and in two very different ways.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — About 200 Marines have moved into Los Angeles and will protect federal property, personnel, the commander in charge says. Maj. Gen. Scott Sherman, commander of Task Force 51 who is overseeing the 4,700 troops deployed, said Friday that the Marines have finished training on civil disturbance.

The outburst of public dissent occurred over the weekend after ICE began raids across Los Angeles. ICE said on Saturday that its “operations in LA this week” had resulted in 118 arrests of immigrants in Southern California.

On this week's episode of 'The Daily Show,' Jon Stewart covered the ongoing ICE protest in Los Angeles, labeling L.A. as 'our most flammable city.'
