The Port of L.A. expects to close the year having moved more than 10 million containers for only the third time in its history. But it expects a 7% drop in 2026.

Overall, after 11 months in 2025, the Port of Los Angeles has moved almost 9.5 million container units, 1% more than last year, "even with all the trade uncertainty" and Seroka said "we'll finish 2025, north of 10 million TEUs putting this year, firmly in our top three of all time."

Trump retains power over the California National Guard but may not deploy troops in Los Angeles for now, appeals panel rules.

The Trump Administration has been ordered to remove the last of its illegal deployment of the National Guard from Los Angeles. Governor Gavin Newsom is doing a little dance while the Orange Menace has a week to appeal.

Donald Trump has suffered another blow in his quest to turn the National Guard into his own personal police force.

The order, handed down by U.S. District Court Judge Charles Breyer, is a blow to the Trump administration, and comes six months after the president in June deployed thousands of federalized National Guard troops to the city in response to a wave of immigration protests.
