Former Attorney General Bill Barr slams Gov. Gavin Newsom’s lawsuit over Trump’s National Guard deployment, calling the claims ‘nonsense.'

Their clash over Trump’s deployment of military forces for anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles is far from the first time the two leaders have butted heads.

Gov. Gavin Newsom long insisted that he had no interest in running for president, despite rampant speculation. Now he’s publicly acknowledging that it’s a possibility.

Democrat Gavin Newsom has not been afraid to square off against the president - but this confrontational strategy is not without political risk.

Democratic politicians have spent the last few months talking about standing up to President Donald Trump in his second term. California Gov. Gavin Newsom is among the first faced with figuring out what standing up actually looks like.

Newsom lambasted Trump, calling him a President who “wants to be bound by no law or constitution, perpetuating a unified assault on American traditions.” And he repeated his assertion that Trump was “fanning the flames” in Los Angeles “on purpose.”

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass issued a curfew for parts of downtown as anti-ICE demonstrations continued for a fifth consecutive day, some of which have turned violent between protesters and law enforcement.

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.
