From the New York Post:
Previous ICE raids led to distressing scenes in downtown Los Angeles after protests quickly escalated into full-blown riots over the last five days — with Trump deploying the National Guard and US Marines to maintain order.
Newsom condemned Trump’s decisions during an emotional televised address Tuesday night, when he likened the president’s actions to those of an “authoritarian” regime.
“Donald Trump, without consulting with California’s law enforcement leaders, commandeered 2,000 of our state’s National Guard members to deploy on our streets. Illegally, and for no reason,” the 40th governor of California said.
“This brazen abuse of power by a sitting president inflamed a combustible situation … putting our people, our officers, and the National Guard at risk. That’s when the downward spiral began. He doubled down on his dangerous National Guard deployment by fanning the flames even harder.”
