Protests surrounding immigration enforcement actions in the Los Angeles area and the Trump administration’s response to them have cued up a public spat between President Donald Trump and Gov. Gavin Ne

President Donald Trump is defending his decision to send Another 2,000 National Guard troops along with 700 Marines to Los Angeles, escalating a military presence local officials and Gov. Gavin Newsom don’t want and the police chief says creates logistical challenges for safely handling protests.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said anti-ICE protesters in Los Angeles who engage in violence will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

The California governor had faded from national prominence as public attention shifted to Washington and, in his home state, the deliberations over Kamala Harris' political future.
