Trump Abandons Plans to Dispatch National Agents to Northern California
Donald Trump has scrapped arrangements for a deployment of national agents to the Bay region that had sparked broad criticism from state officials and drawn protesters gathering in the city centers.
Area Tension Over Reported Federal Deployment
The area had been anxious after reports circulated that the leadership was prepared to send more than 100 Customs and Border Protection and other federal agents to the military facility in Alameda, as part of a large-scale legal compliance initiative.

However, the chief executive declared he would not move forward with a “surge” of national agents in the region after speaking with the mayor, city leadership, and Silicon Valley executives including Salesforce CEO and Jensen Huang.
“Through our exchange, the chief executive informed me clearly that he was canceling every proposal for a federal deployment in this municipality,” Lurie commented in a announcement.
