LA protester says tear gas 'tasted like fascism'

A protester who said the tear gas he experienced “tasted like fascism” has gone viral after being interviewed during the ongoing LA anti-ICE protests.

The man was speaking on CBS LA when he made the comments, which have received a big reaction online.

It comes as President Donald Trump has said he is sending the National Guard to Los Angeles to crush the anti-ICE protests, saying he will use the federal government to crush the “RIOTERS & LOOTERS, the way it should be solved!!!”

“If Governor Gavin Newscum, of California, and Mayor Karen Bass, of Los Angeles, can’t do their jobs, which everyone knows they can’t, then the Federal Government will step in and solve the problem, RIOTS & LOOTERS, the way it should be solved!!!” Trump wrote.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said that 2,000 National Guard troops will be sent to Los Angeles to arrest protesters.
