Gov. Gavin Newsom blamed President Trump for intentionally inflaming tensions at protests in L.A. and targeting hardworking immigrant families in federal raids.

California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom says the federal military intervention in Los Angeles marks the onset of a much broader effort by President Donald Trump to overturn political and cultural norms at the heart of the nation’s democracy.

The California governor’s presidential prospects hang in the balance as he defends Los Angeles from ‘authoritarian overreach.’

The California Governor has sued the U.S. President over the mobilization of the National Guard, calling it “an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism.”

California Gov. Gavin Newsom dared the administration of President Donald Trump to arrest him during an interview over the weekend. Newsom was responding to comments from Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, who told NBC News that he would arrest anyone who interfered with immigration enforcement, including Newsom, according to The New York Times.

U.S. President Donald Trump is "pulling a military dragnet" across Los Angeles by deploying and then expanding the role of the National Guard and marines in the nation's second-largest city, according to California's governor.

Both Trump and his "border czar," Tom Homan, have said California officials could face arrest if they're perceived as impeding ICE operations.

In a prime time address, Gov. Gavin Newsom of California sharply criticized President Trump for sending in the military to handle the protests in Los Angeles.

California's Senate Minority Leader has told Newsweek that Newsom should not be arrested amid Trump's threats.

President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of 2,000 National Guards troops to quell immigration protests in Los Angeles, overriding California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s objections in a rare move.
