Escalating Tensions in Los Angeles: Trump Deploys Marines, Governor Responds
The situation in Los Angeles, California, is escalating due to protests against the government's illegal immigration policies. President Trump has bypassed local authorities and sent 2,000 National Guard troops to maintain order, with an additional 500 Marines on standby. California Governor Gavin Newsom expressed strong dissatisfaction, demanding the withdrawal of these troops and claiming that Trump's intervention is an infringement on state sovereignty.
Newsom posted on social media, stating, "Come arrest me if you dare," emphasizing that there was no issue in California before Trump's interference. He criticized this action for heightening tensions and diverting resources from where they are genuinely needed. Meanwhile, Tom Homan, head of Border Enforcement, warned that anyone obstructing immigration enforcement, including Newsom, could face arrest. Newsom retorted, saying, "If you want to arrest me, come on; he knows where I am."
