California Governor Newsom says Trump caused the problems you see in Los Angeles with protests

Описание: California Governor Gavin Newsom expressed concern over President Trump's calling out of the National Guard to help quell protests over ICE immigration actions in and around Los Angeles.

Protesters took to the streets this past weekend, clashing with law enforcement and leading to Trump calling out the California National Guard.

"Well, I mean, look, Donald Trump has created the conditions you see on your TV tonight. He's exacerbated the conditions. He's, you know, lit the proverbial match. He's putting fuel on this fire. Ever since he announced he was taking over the National Guard, an illegal act, an immoral act, an unconstitutional act. And we're going to test that theory with a lawsuit tomorrow."

"Well, under his executive order, specifically notes and under what the DOD did is they had to coordinate with the governor of the state. They never coordinate with the governor of the state. I've worked with the National Guard. We've deployed the National Guard. We did -- three-plus-thousand folks have been doing logistics work, in fire recovery work, and they were fighting the fires, the rattlesnake teams. Now, we did the same back in George Floyd. We have no problem working collaboratively in a mutual aid system with local law enforcement. But there's a protocol, there's a process. He didn't care about that. And the worst part, he completely lied. He said in a tweet that everything's now safe. Everything's fine. Is that the case, Mr. Trump? He said, because he deployed the National Guard. The guard hadn't even been deployed when he said this. It's Orwellian, simply lying to people, unconstitutional, illegal act. His mess, we're trying to clean it up."
