US President Donald Trump has cancelled a planned federal troop deployment to San Francisco after widespread protests and calls from tech leaders, including Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside the Alameda Coast Guard base, holding signs reading "No ICE or Troops in the Bay" and urging protection for immigrant communities. Police used flash-bang grenades to clear the way for federal vehicles, while city leaders emphasised collaboration on drug crime rather than militarised enforcement. Despite the stand-down, organisers and residents remain vigilant, preparing rapid response networks and legal aid, as uncertainty lingers over potential future federal actions across the Bay Area.
