Breakdown between Trump and Newsom deepens as L.A. crisis intensifies
Washington – The governor and the president pass through each other.
Despite their politics and ambitions, the two men have previously worked with destructive fires and a pandem. However, immigrant raids Roil Los Angeles, President Trump and Gov. Gavin Newsom, while protests around the city, they cannot even accept how they quit their last conversation on Friday evening.
Trump told Times a warning to Times: “Bring the police to the gear.” Sabağı would take less than 24 hours without choosing a historical way and federalize the national guards against the requests of the state and local authorities.
The governor told Msnbc Account is a lie. In his 40 -minute calls, the President did not raise the likelihood of controlling the control of the state and local authorities over national guards.
A White House official said they haven’t spoken since then.
Trump went further on Monday, raised the ghost of the arrest of Newsom, and supported the national guard operation with a historical deployment of the US Shipping in a historical way.
The deployment of the Union is another extraordinary effort in Los Angeles to protest the flash raids carried out by immigration and customs enforcement officers recently, some of them to suppress the demonstrations that have become violence.
‘To arrest himself’
The Newsom government said on Monday that he would sue the Trump administration to deploy and publish a scary criticism of Trump’s leadership and call his defense secretary as “joke” and “Unhanged”. However, the president and his senior advisors particularly responded with a sharp threat and claimed that he could be arrested because of the prevention of the governor.
“In this country, if you break the law in this country, it is a basic principle that you will face a result, Kar “If the governor prevents the Federal execution or breaks the federal laws, then he will arrest himself.”
In the early hours of the day, Tom Homan, the so -called border of the president, said that no one is above the law and that everyone, including the governor who prevented immigration, would be subject to accusations.
“If I were Tom, I would do it,” Trump saidWhile talking to journalists on Monday, following his lips as he thought about the question. “I think it’s great.”
“He did a terrible job, Tr Trump continued. “I love Gavin Newsom. He’s a good man. But it’s so incompetent. Everyone knows.”
The White House does not actively discuss or plan the arrest of Newsom. However, Newsom took the threat seriously, strongly solved Trump’s words as a sign of an authoritarian.
“The President of the United States called for the arrest of a new governor. This is a day when I hope I would never see in America. Written on Newsom X.
“It would have been unlikely to arrest a governor because of the policy difference between the federal government and a state,” UC Berkeley Law Faculty Dean Erwin Chemerinsky said on Monday. He said. “Even while the Southern governors were preventing their orders, the presidents did not try to arrest them.”
Effort to withdraw back in deterrence
Leavitt said Trump’s first decision on distributing the guards was “with the expectation that the deployment of national guards will prevent and deterrence some of this violence”.
“He told the governor to control it and watched another 24 hours he watched another full day,” Leavitt said. “Attacks on the Federal Law Enforcement Forces increased, violence grew, and the president was bravely to protect the federal detention areas, federal buildings and federal personnel on Saturday evening.”
The opposite occurred. The worst violence took place on Sunday, some rebels burned and threw concrete in the police cars hours after the arrival of national guard troops to La County.
The protests were largely peaceful during Friday and Saturday, and there were isolated examples of violent activities. Leavitt said that the Mayor of Los Angeles, Newsom and Karen Bass “prevented” the Los Angeles Police Department “trying to do their jobs”.
“The local police department refused to implement the immigration laws of our country and to keep them into custody and keep the violent criminals on the streets of Los Angeles and allow them to arrest them.”
“As for the local law enforcement officers,” he added, “President Los Angeles has great respect for the Police Department.”
‘All options on the table’
Leavitt said in a telephone conversation on Monday afternoon that Trump would not take ahead about whether he would call the uprising law, which allows the president to suspend the Poz Comitatus, who prohibits the army from joining the local law enforcement officers.
However, on Monday, the President said that he referred to some rebels. riotsPreparing the ground for potentially calling the law.
“The president wisely keeps all the options on the table and will do what is necessary to restore the law and order in California,” he said. “Federal immigration application operations will continue in the city of Los Angeles, which is completely invaded by illegal foreign criminals that create a public security risk and need to be removed from the city.”
The President’s order, which directs the 2,000 national guard unit to protect the federal buildings in the city, allows a 60 -day deployment. Leavitt does not say how long the operation could last, but he claimed that it would continue until the violence in the protests ended.
“I do not want to prevent the president for any decision or timeline,” he said. “I can say that the White House focuses 100%. The president wants to solve the problem. This means creating an environment in which citizens are given the right to protest peacefully if they want.”
“And these violent disruptions and uprisings, as the President said, not only do an evil to the citizens who obey the law, but also those who want to protest peacefully. This administration will always support and protect.”
